All Saints Healthcare Subacute

North Hollywood, CA · Los Angeles County

CMS 2/5128 bedsFor-profitMedicaid
Nurse hours
10.93 /day
Staff turnover
28%
Serious cites
0

All Saints runs unusually heavy nurse staffing, nearly 11 hours per resident day, roughly triple the national figure, and its 28% turnover beats the 45.8% national average. Weekend coverage dips about 10% below its own weekday level, but the numbers stay high regardless. The inspection record is where it falls apart. Ninety-six deficiencies are on file, four of them at the harm or jeopardy level and six tied to abuse, with three fines totaling $118,855. The most recent inspection, in January 2026, gave the home a one-star health inspection rating even as its quality and staffing measures scored five. Corporate ownership, 128 beds, and a record showing both strong bedside hours and serious compliance problems, that combination is what the grade reflects.

Fremont Healthcare Center runs 115 beds under for-profit partnership ownership, and the staffing numbers here are the real story: 4.12 nurse hours per resident day, roughly 7% above the national average, with weekend coverage dipping about 7% below its own weekday level. Turnover sits at 36%, better than the 45.8% national figure, which matters for consistency of care. The tradeoff shows up in the inspection record, 30 deficiencies, none at harm or jeopardy level, but three tied to abuse, plus one fine of $12,051. The most recent inspection was November 2025. Quality measures score well and staffing is strong; the survey history is where a family should ask questions.

Downey Community Health Center runs about 4.65 nurse hours per resident day, roughly 20% above the national average, and weekend staffing dips only about 9% below its own weekday level, that's a fairly modest drop. Staff turnover sits at 25% against a national average near 46%, so people tend to stay. The catch is the inspection record: 71 deficiencies on file, three tied to abuse, though none rose to the harm or jeopardy level. State surveyors were last in on April 10, 2025. With 198 beds under for-profit partnership ownership, the staffing and retention numbers are genuinely strong; the deficiency count and 2-out-of-5 inspection rating are where the concerns live.

Willows Post Acute

Staff turnover

Willows Post Acute runs 79 certified beds under corporate for-profit ownership, and its inspection record is genuinely clean for a home this size: 20 deficiencies on the books, but none at the harm or jeopardy level and none tied to abuse, with a survey completed in April 2025. The weaker spot is staffing. At 3.77 nurse hours per resident day, it sits just under the national average, and weekend coverage drops roughly 5% below its own weekday level, a gap families should ask about directly, since needs don't pause on Saturdays. Turnover at 38.6% is better than the 45.8% national figure. Quality measures score strongly; direct-care hours are the number to watch.

Vineyard Hills runs on more nursing hours than most places, 4.89 per resident per day, roughly a quarter above the national average, and that shows up in its four-out-of-five staffing rating. It's not perfect coverage, though: weekends run about 15% thinner than weekdays, and annual turnover sits at 48.1%, a touch above the national figure, so the faces around a resident change fairly often. On the regulatory side, the record is clean where it matters most. Sixteen deficiencies on the current file, but none at the harm level and none tied to abuse, with a five-star health inspection rating and a survey completed in June 2025. Corporate-owned and Medicare-certified for 99 beds.

Lakeport Post Acute runs leaner than most homes on nurse staffing, 3.51 hours per resident day against a national average of 3.86, and weekends drop about 11% below its own weekday levels, so coverage thins out right when families tend to visit. Turnover at 29.8% is notably better than the 45.8% national figure, which suggests less churn among the people actually providing care. The inspection record is the harder read: 49 deficiencies, one at harm or jeopardy level and one abuse-related, with a two-star health inspection rating, though the most recent inspection came in June 2025. Quality measures score well, but that reflects resident outcomes on paper, not how consistently the building is staffed or cited.

Alta Gardens runs 129 certified beds in Garden Grove under for-profit LLC ownership, and its staffing sits essentially at the national average, 3.87 nurse hours per resident day against 3.86. Weekends run about 7% leaner than weekdays, so coverage thins out when families tend to visit. Turnover is where it stands apart: 20.4% annually against a national 45.8%, meaning the people caring for residents tend to stay. The tradeoff shows up in oversight. Inspectors last visited in February 2026 and logged 58 deficiencies, including one at the harm level and two tied to abuse, with a single $8,278 fine. Quality measures score well; the inspection record is the weaker half.

Stoney Point runs 132 beds in Chatsworth under for-profit LLC ownership, and its record is a split picture. Nurse staffing sits at 3.78 hours per resident day, a bit under the national average, and weekends dip about 5% below its own weekday levels, so coverage thins out exactly when families tend to visit. What stands out is turnover: 21.2% against a national average of 45.8%, meaning this staff largely stays put. Against that, the current inspection record carries 53 deficiencies, including one at the harm level and three abuse-related, with the most recent inspection in July 2025. State surveyors have cited real problems here, even as the same residents' quality measures score well.

The Shores Post-Acute runs 305 beds in San Diego under corporate for-profit ownership, and its nurse staffing sits at 3.58 hours per resident day, roughly 7% under the national average of 3.86. Weekend coverage barely dips from weekday levels, and turnover is 26.4%, well below the national 45.8%, so the hands-on care is at least consistent week to week. The inspection record is where it gets messier: 61 deficiencies on file, one serious enough to involve harm or jeopardy, though none tied to abuse. State surveyors last visited in December 2024, so that history is fairly current. Solid marks on quality measures and staffing balance against a long citation list, a mixed picture, not a clear yes or no.

Alameda Care Center in Burbank runs 89 certified beds under corporate for-profit ownership, and the staffing numbers are genuinely better than average: 4.00 nurse hours per resident day against a national 3.86, with a 35.2% turnover rate that's well below the 45.8% national figure. Weekends dip about 8% below weekday staffing, but that's a modest gap. The real concern sits on the inspection side. A 1-out-of-5 health inspection rating, 88 total deficiencies, and seven abuse-related citations on the current record point to persistent problems with how care is delivered and monitored, even though none rose to harm or jeopardy level. The most recent inspection was July 2025, so that record is current.

Vista Real Post Acute sits in Beaumont with 57 beds and a for-profit LLC owner, and the numbers tell a mixed story. Staffing runs 4.24 nurse hours per resident day, roughly 10% above the national average, with turnover at 28.8%, well below the 45.8% national figure, meaning aides and nurses tend to stay. But weekends drop about 12% below the home's own weekday staffing, and the inspection record carries 43 deficiencies, including 2 at harm or jeopardy level and 3 tied to abuse. A June 2025 inspection is recent, and the 3/5 health inspection rating reflects that record even as quality measures score 5/5. Ask about weekend coverage and how those abuse-related findings were resolved.

New Bethany Skilled Nursing runs 35 beds in Los Banos, and its staffing is the clearest strength: 4.45 nurse hours per resident day, roughly 15 percent above the national average, with a 4-out-of-5 staffing star to match. Turnover sits at 22.2 percent, about half the national rate of 45.8 percent, which matters for whether you see the same faces month to month; weekend coverage does drop about 13 percent below weekday levels. The caution is inspections: a 2-out-of-5 health inspection star, 29 deficiencies on record, and one abuse-related citation, though none rose to harm or jeopardy. The last inspection was September 2025, so the record is current.

Country Crest runs 4.70 nurse hours per resident day, about 22% above the national average of 3.86, though weekends dip roughly 13% below its own weekday coverage. Turnover sits at 53.7% against a national 45.8%, so the people providing that above-average care keep changing. The current record shows 41 deficiencies, none at harm or jeopardy level, but two tied to abuse, and the last inspection was January 2026. Quality measures score at the top of CMS's scale even as health inspection and staffing each land mid-range. It's a for-profit limited liability company, 59 beds, in Oroville.

Chaparral House is a 49-bed nonprofit in Berkeley, and the numbers behind its grade start with staffing: 4.24 nurse hours per resident day, roughly 10 percent above the national average. Weekend coverage dips about 10 percent below its own weekday levels, and turnover sits at 48 percent, a bit above the national 45.8 percent. The inspection record shows 23 deficiencies, none at the harm or jeopardy level, though two are abuse-related. Its last inspection was September 27, 2024, and CMS gives it 4 of 5 stars for health inspections and 4 for staffing, with a perfect 5 for quality measures. The high quality scores and consistent weekday staffing carry real weight here.

South Bay Post Acute Care runs 99 beds in Chula Vista under for-profit LLC ownership, and the numbers behind its record are mostly solid. Nurse staffing sits at 4.23 hours per resident day, roughly 10% above the national average, though weekends dip about 13% below the home's own weekday levels, worth asking about if your family visits or calls on Saturdays and Sundays. Staff turnover is 40.6%, better than the 45.8% national figure. The home carries 30 deficiencies on its current record, but none at the harm level and none abuse-related, and its last inspection was in May 2025.

Trinity Hospital Skilled Nursing Facility is a 13-bed for-profit home in Weaverville, and the staffing numbers here are unusual in a good way, 5.75 nurse hours per resident day, roughly half again the national average of 3.86. Weekend coverage drops about 15% below its own weekday level, so ask how that plays out on a Sunday. Turnover sits at 38.1%, better than the 45.8% national figure, which matters in a small building where you want familiar faces. The tradeoff shows up in 14 deficiencies on the current record, none at harm or jeopardy level and none abuse-related, with the most recent inspection in September 2025.

Imperial Manor runs 31 beds in Imperial, and the numbers tell a mixed story. Nurse staffing sits at 3.84 hours per resident day, essentially level with the national average of 3.86, with weekend coverage holding steady rather than dropping off, but the federal staffing rating still comes in at just one star, which suggests the mix and consistency of that coverage isn't reassuring inspectors. The inspection record is the bigger concern: 29 deficiencies, including one at the harm level and two tied to abuse, plus eight fines totaling $45,518. Annual turnover of 45.9% is right at the national norm, so staff are cycling through at a typical rate. Family members should ask directly about those abuse-related findings before deciding.

Harvard Creek Post Acute runs on 4.85 total nurse hours per resident day, about 26% above the national average, that's the strongest thing in its numbers. Weekend staffing dips only slightly below weekday levels, so coverage stays steady. But the record shows 44 deficiencies, one tied to abuse, even though none reached harm or jeopardy; a February 2026 inspection keeps that picture current. Quality measures score well, though the staffing star sits lower than the raw hours might suggest, and this is a for-profit LLC. If you're weighing it, ask specifically about that abuse-related citation and how the building's care planning has changed since.

The Bradley Gardens runs 44 certified beds under for-profit limited liability ownership in San Jacinto, and its nurse staffing sits at 4.13 hours per resident day, about 7% above the national average. Weekends dip roughly 5% below its own weekday level, so coverage thins slightly when families tend to visit. The bigger thing to weigh is the inspection record: 48 deficiencies on file, two tied to abuse, though none reached harm or jeopardy level, and the most recent inspection was August 2025. CMS gives it 3 stars for health inspections and staffing, 4 for quality measures. Nothing here signals danger, but the deficiency count and abuse citations are worth raising directly with the administrator.

Lake Balboa Care Center runs about 4.95 nurse hours per resident day, roughly 28% above the national average of 3.86, and its staff turnover of 26.7% sits well under the national 45.8%. Weekend coverage, though, drops about 17% below its own weekday level, so care can thin out when families visit. The current record shows 28 deficiencies, none at the harm or jeopardy level and none abuse-related, and the last inspection was in April 2026. State survey results land at 3 out of 5 stars, while the quality measures score 5 out of 5. For-profit corporate ownership, 50 beds.
