Nurse hours

Staff turnover

Sunset Villa Post Acute sits in Long Beach with 199 certified beds and a for-profit LLC owner. Nurse staffing runs 4.00 hours per resident day, slightly above the national average, but weekends drop about 7% below its own weekday level, and turnover sits at 44.8%, roughly in line with the national rate. The staffing star rating is 3/5. The bigger concern is the inspection record: 89 deficiencies, 6 at harm or jeopardy level, 10 abuse-related, and three fines totaling $207,206. The last inspection was April 9, 2026. Its quality measure rating is 5/5, but that's derived from resident assessments, not from how safely the home is actually run day to day.

Stanley Healthcare Center runs 30 beds in Westminster under for-profit LLC ownership, and its nurse staffing sits a bit above the national average, 4.05 hours per resident day against 3.86. That cushion thins on weekends, though, when coverage drops about 7% below its own weekday level, and annual turnover of 55.6% tops the national 45.8%, so the faces around a resident change often. The inspection record carries 64 deficiencies, none flagged at harm or jeopardy level, but one tied to abuse. State surveyors last visited in April 2026, and the health inspection rating landed at 3 out of 5, with quality measures at 4 and staffing at 3.

Terrace Post Acute runs 133 beds in Van Nuys under corporate for-profit ownership, and its staffing sits almost exactly at the national average, 3.87 nurse hours per resident day against 3.86, though weekends dip about 5% below its own weekday coverage. Turnover is the real bright spot at 25.7%, well under the 45.8% national figure, which suggests a steadier workforce than most. What drags the record down is inspection history: 89 deficiencies, three of them at harm or jeopardy level, four tied to abuse, plus a $94,094 fine and a one-star health inspection rating despite the four-star quality measures and a January 2026 inspection.

Milpitas Care Center runs 35 beds under corporate ownership, and its nurse staffing sits at 3.77 hours per resident day, just under the national average, with weekends running about 7% thinner than weekdays. The standout number is turnover: 19.2% against a national average of 45.8%, which means the people caring for residents tend to stick around. That matters, and it's why the staffing rating holds at 3/5 and quality measures at 3/5. The inspection record is where the picture darkens. Fifty-two deficiencies on the current record, including one at the harm or jeopardy level and one abuse-related, plus three fines totaling $28,520. The most recent inspection was June 27, 2025. Stable staff, a thin weekend margin, and a long citation history, that's the tradeoff to weigh.

Tulare Healthcare & Wellness Center runs 97 certified beds under individual for-profit ownership, and its nurse staffing sits at 4.10 hours per resident day, about 6% above the national average. That headline number looks reassuring until you notice weekends run roughly 8% leaner than weekdays, which is when families tend to visit and when problems often surface. The inspection record is the bigger concern: 72 deficiencies on file, including 4 tied to abuse, though none rose to the harm or jeopardy level. Federal inspectors last visited in March 2026, and CMS rated the health inspection and staffing stars at 2 out of 5 each. Weigh the staffing figure against that deficiency count before deciding.

Hayward Healthcare & Wellness Center runs 99 certified beds under individual for-profit ownership, and its nurse staffing sits at 4.06 hours per resident day, roughly 5% above the national average of 3.86. That's the strongest part of the picture, though weekend coverage drops about 9% below what the home staffs on weekdays. The inspection record is where the numbers get harder to shrug off: 24 deficiencies on the current record, including one at the harm or jeopardy level and one flagged as abuse-related. The last full inspection was July 2023, so that record has had time to age without a fresh look. Worth asking the administrator directly what changed after that harm-level finding.

La Jolla Post-Acute runs 161 certified beds under corporate for-profit ownership, and its nurse staffing sits at 3.91 hours per resident day, barely a percentage point above the national average of 3.86. That thin margin narrows further on weekends, when coverage drops roughly 7% below the home's own weekday levels. Staff turnover is the bigger concern: 49.3% annually against a national average of 45.8%, meaning nearly half the nursing workforce turns over each year. The inspection record shows 43 deficiencies, none at harm or jeopardy level and none abuse-related, with the most recent survey in April 2025. Four stars on health inspections but three on staffing tells you the clinical care is holding up better than the workforce stability behind it.

Napa Post Acute runs 120 beds under for-profit LLC ownership, and the staffing numbers are genuinely better than most: 4.07 nurse hours per resident day against a national average of 3.86, with turnover at 38.6% versus 45.8% nationally. That's real, and it shows up in the four-out-of-five staffing star. The problem is what inspections keep finding. Forty-nine deficiencies on the current record, four of them at harm or jeopardy level and one tied to abuse, plus two fines totaling $173,323. Weekends run about 16% lighter than weekdays, so the coverage that looks solid on paper thins out when families visit. Good aides, recurring serious findings, that combination is worth asking about directly before you sign anything.

Kit Carson runs a for-profit, 199-bed operation where the nurse staffing numbers look strong on paper, 4.64 hours per resident day, roughly 20% above the national average, but that average hides a weekend dip of about 17%. Staff turnover sits at 54.6%, well above the 45.8% national figure, so the people providing that care are cycling through steadily. The current inspection record is the harder problem: 72 deficiencies, five at harm or jeopardy level, three tied to abuse, and three fines totaling $28,327. The most recent inspection was August 2025, so the findings are fresh.

River Valley runs 4.45 nurse hours per resident day against a national average of 3.86, which is a real margin in a county where a lot of homes sit under four. That staffing holds up reasonably well on weekends, dipping only about 6% from weekday levels. The tradeoff shows up in the inspection record: 45 deficiencies, two of them serious enough to reach harm or jeopardy, and two tied to abuse. A recent inspection date of May 2026 means the record reflects current conditions rather than old findings. Know that the state inspected it recently, that nurse coverage is genuinely above average, and that the deficiency count and abuse citations are the things worth asking about directly on a tour.

San Pablo Healthcare & Wellness Center runs 108 certified beds under corporate ownership, and its nurse staffing sits at 4.16 hours per resident day, roughly 8% above the national average. Weekend coverage dips about 8% below its own weekday levels, so the weekday numbers look better than a Saturday actually does. The inspection record is where the picture sours. Forty-three deficiencies are on file, including nine tied to abuse and one serious enough to involve harm or jeopardy. A single fine totaling $10,036 has been levied, and the most recent inspection was June 26, 2025. All three CMS star ratings land at 3 out of 5. Solid staffing, but that abuse count and harm-level finding are what a family should ask about directly.

Bethesda Home in Hayward is a small church-affiliated nonprofit with 40 beds, and its inspection record is genuinely solid: 20 deficiencies on file, but none rose to harm or jeopardy, and none involved abuse. Quality measures hold at 4 out of 5 stars too, so residents' clinical outcomes look reasonable on paper. The staffing number is where the story turns. One star out of five means nurse and aide hours fall well below what CMS expects for a building this size, that's the single biggest drag on the score, and it matters most on nights and weekends when needs don't pause. Its last inspection was October 2024, so the record is current. Ask about actual daily aide coverage before you decide.

North Point Healthcare & Wellness Centre runs about 99 certified beds in Fresno under for-profit partnership ownership, and its last health inspection was in March 2025, so what you're seeing is reasonably fresh. The inspection record is the strongest part of the picture: 20 deficiencies on file, but none at the harm or jeopardy level and none related to abuse. Nurse staffing sits at 3.98 hours per resident day, roughly 3% above the national average, though weekends run about 8% below the home's own weekday level, which is where gaps tend to show up. The tradeoff is consistency, quality measures score well, staffing is only decent against peers, and ownership structure means you should ask who's actually on the floor on a Saturday.

The Rehabilitation Center Of Oakland runs on a for-profit LLC structure with 70 certified beds, and its nurse staffing sits at 4.35 hours per resident day, roughly 13% above the national average, though weekend coverage dips about 7% below its own weekday level. The staffing star rating reflects that strength, but the inspection record tells a different story: a 1/5 health inspection rating, 39 deficiencies on file including two at the harm or jeopardy level and three tied to abuse, plus three fines totaling $30,562. Its most recent inspection was September 13, 2024. Quality measures land mid-range at 3/5, but the deficiency history is what weighs most heavily here.

Corona Regional Medical Center D/P Snf is a 61-bed for-profit unit inside a hospital, and its inspection record is genuinely solid, a 4/5 health inspection score, 23 deficiencies on file but none of them at the harm or jeopardy level, and a survey completed as recently as May 2025. One abuse-related citation is on the record, which you should ask about directly. The real weak spot is staffing: 1 out of 5 stars, meaning nurse hours per resident fall well below what CMS expects. That gap matters more than the deficiency count. Hospital-based units often run lean because acute care staff float in and out. Ask who actually covers the floor overnight and on weekends.

Eden Valley Care Center runs on more nurse hours than most homes, 4.48 per resident day against a national average of 3.86, but weekends drop about 18% below its own weekday staffing, so the coverage your family sees on a Tuesday isn't what shows up on a Sunday. Annual turnover sits at 51.7%, above the national 45.8%, meaning more than half the staff you'd meet are likely gone within a year. The inspection record shows 33 deficiencies, four of them serious enough to put residents at risk of harm, and three fines totaling $58,191, though the most recent inspection was January 2025 and there's nothing abuse-related on file.

Redlands Comm Hosp D/P Snf runs just 16 certified beds, so it operates more like a small hospital unit than a typical nursing floor. The staffing number stands out: 6.78 nurse hours per resident day, roughly 76% above the national average of 3.86, though weekend coverage drops about 16% below its own weekday level. That's a real gap worth asking about. Inspections are current as of December 2025, the health inspection rating is 5 out of 5, and the nine deficiencies on record include nothing at the harm or jeopardy level and nothing abuse-related, meaningful given how often those categories show up elsewhere. Quality measures land at 4 out of 5. Nonprofit ownership, small size, and heavy staffing explain the solid grade, though a 16-bed home has little margin when someone calls out.

The Earlwood has 91 deficiencies on its current record, four of them at the harm or jeopardy level and two abuse-related, that's a lot of paperwork documenting problems, not just minor ones. The most recent inspection was January 8, 2026, so this isn't stale history. Staffing sits at 4.08 nurse hours per resident day, about 6% above the national average, but weekend coverage drops roughly 9% below its own weekday level, and turnover runs 50.6% against a national 45.8%. It's a for-profit LLC with 87 beds and $30,531 in fines from two separate penalties. The inspection rating of 1 out of 5 is the number that should give you pause.

Spring Valley Post Acute runs a for-profit operation with 126 beds, and its 4.66 nurse hours per resident day sits about 21% above the national average, but weekends drop roughly 15% below its own weekday levels, so coverage thins out when families are most likely to visit. Turnover at 41.4% is slightly better than the national 45.8%, though that still means plenty of new faces. The trouble sits in inspections: 31 deficiencies on record, including 2 at harm or jeopardy level and 5 abuse-related, plus 13 fines totaling $76,963. The last inspection was March 2026. Strong staffing numbers are doing a lot of work here; the enforcement history is the bigger story.

Madera Post Acute Center runs 148 certified beds in El Monte under corporate for-profit ownership, and the staffing numbers land just above the national average, about 3.99 nurse hours per resident day, roughly 3% higher. That edge narrows on weekends, when hours drop about 14% below the home's own weekday levels, and turnover sits at 49.7%, a few points above the national 45.8%. The bigger concern is the inspection record: 70 deficiencies, including two at the harm or jeopardy level and two tied to abuse, plus $29,517 in fines across two penalties. A July 2025 inspection is recent, but that volume of findings is what drags the health inspection rating down to 1 out of 5.
