Loma Linda Post Acute

Loma Linda, CA · San Bernardino County

CMS 4/5 83 beds For-profit Medicaid
Nurse hours
4.24 /day
Staff turnover
46%
Serious cites
0

Loma Linda Post Acute runs 83 beds as a for-profit LLC, and its staffing numbers are a mixed picture. Total nurse coverage sits at 4.24 hours per resident day, roughly 10% above the national average of 3.86, but weekends drop about 10% below what the home itself staffs on weekdays, and turnover of 46.4% is essentially the national rate of 45.8%. CMS gives it 4 stars for health inspections and 4 for quality measures, with a recent inspection dated July 2025. The 28 deficiencies on record include none tied to harm, jeopardy, or abuse, which matters more than the raw count suggests. The weak spot is the 2-star staffing rating, undercutting otherwise solid marks.

Kyakameena Care Center

Nurse hours

Staff turnover
57%
Serious cites
0

Kyakameena runs 3.93 nurse hours per resident day, just above the national average of 3.86, and weekends dip roughly 8% below its own weekday coverage. The bigger concern is turnover: 57.4% of staff leave each year, against a national average of 45.8%. Its record shows 40 deficiencies, including one at the harm level and two tied to abuse, with eight fines totaling $38,848. The last inspection was November 2025, and the quality measure rating sits at 4 out of 5, the clinical picture looks steadier than the staffing churn suggests.

Westwood Post Acute

Nurse hours

Staff turnover

Westwood Post Acute runs 258 beds in San Jose under for-profit LLC ownership, and the staffing picture is genuinely better than most: 4.44 nurse hours per resident day, roughly 15% above the national average, though weekends dip about 5% below its own weekday level. Turnover sits at 45.8%, right at the national mark, no advantage there either way. What pulls the record down is the inspection history: 93 deficiencies on file, two serious enough to reach harm or jeopardy, six tied to abuse, and a $18,871 fine. The most recent inspection was April 2025, so it's current, not stale. High nurse hours don't cancel out that many problems.

Sharon Care Center

Los Angeles, CA · Los Angeles County

Nurse hours
3.89 /day
Staff turnover
52%
Serious cites
0

Sharon Care Center runs 86 certified beds in Los Angeles under for-profit limited liability ownership, and the staffing picture is thinner than it first looks. Total nurse hours sit at 3.89 per resident day, barely a percentage point above the national average, but weekend coverage drops roughly 7% below the home's own weekday levels, and annual turnover of 52% runs well past the national 45.8%, meaning the people showing up are frequently new. The bigger issue is the inspection record: a 1-out-of-5 health inspection rating, 117 deficiencies total, including 3 at harm or jeopardy level and 6 tied to abuse. One fine of $49,162 is on file. The last inspection was April 30, 2026. Strong quality measure scores don't offset that history.

Whittier Pacific runs 105 beds under corporate for-profit ownership, and its nurse staffing comes in at 5.02 hours per resident day, roughly 30% above the national average of 3.86. Turnover sits at 43.9%, a touch better than the 45.8% national figure, though weekend coverage dips about 6% below its own weekday level. What pulls the record down is the inspection side: 80 deficiencies on the current record, including one at the harm or jeopardy level and three tied to abuse. The last inspection was March 13, 2026. Staffing hours look strong on paper, but that deficiency history is the part I'd want to ask about directly before deciding.

Serious cites
0

Shafter Nursing Care runs 99 certified beds under for-profit LLC ownership, and its nurse staffing sits at 3.99 hours per resident day, roughly 3% above the national average of 3.86. That edge thins on weekends, when coverage drops about 9% below the home's own weekday level. Annual turnover is 43.1%, a touch better than the 45.8% national figure. The part worth slowing down on is the inspection record: 38 deficiencies, including 2 at the harm or jeopardy level and 7 tied to abuse, with two fines totaling $27,439 and a last inspection dated April 2026. CMS gives it three stars each for health inspections, quality measures, and staffing.

Cornerstone Care Center

0

Cornerstone Care Center runs 99 beds in Sanger under for-profit LLC ownership, and its nurse staffing sits at 4.14 hours per resident day, roughly 7% above the national average, though weekends drop about 13% below its own weekday numbers, so coverage isn't evenly spread across the week. Staff turnover lands at 47%, a touch above the 45.8% national figure. The inspection record is the heavier concern: 52 deficiencies, four of them serious enough to put residents at harm or jeopardy, and one fine of $27,612, with the most recent inspection in May 2025. Quality measures score well, but that gap between measured care and inspection findings is worth asking about directly.

West Shore Post Acute

Alameda, CA · Alameda County

Nurse hours

Staff turnover
39%
Serious cites

West Shore Post Acute runs 151 beds in Alameda under for-profit LLC ownership. Staffing sits at 3.93 nurse hours per resident day, barely above the national average of 3.86, and weekends run about 8% thinner than weekdays, a meaningful gap if your family member needs care on a Saturday. Turnover is 38.7%, better than the 45.8% national figure, so the same aides are more likely to stick around. What drags this one down is the inspection record: 57 deficiencies, including four tied to abuse and one serious enough to put a resident in harm's way. That's a lot of citations for a single building. The last inspection was May 2025, so the record is current.

Camino Healthcare runs 99 certified beds in Hawthorne under for-profit LLC ownership, and its nurse staffing sits at 4.08 hours per resident day, roughly 6% above the national average of 3.86. That cushion shrinks on weekends, when staffing drops about 13% below the home's own weekday level. Turnover is the harder number: 51.3% of nursing staff leave annually against a national average of 45.8%. The inspection record carries 66 deficiencies, including two at the harm or jeopardy level and two tied to abuse, with one fine of $9,110. The most recent inspection was March 13, 2026. CMS rates health inspections 2 out of 5 stars, quality measures 3, and staffing 3.

San Dimas, CA · Los Angeles County

CMS 3/5 106 beds For-profit Medicaid
Nurse hours

Staff turnover
49%
Serious cites
0

Casa Bonita runs 5.04 nurse hours per resident day, roughly 30% above the national average of 3.86, and weekends only dip about 6% below its own weekday staffing. Turnover is the problem hiding in the good numbers: 49.2% of staff leave annually, above the 45.8% national rate. The current record carries 38 deficiencies, one serious enough to reach harm or jeopardy level, though none involve abuse. Inspectors last visited in June 2025, and the for-profit LLC ownership structure is worth knowing about. A 4/5 on health inspections and quality measures suggests care is fundamentally sound, but that turnover rate means the people delivering it keep changing.

Grand Valley Health Care Center

Van Nuys, CA · Los Angeles County

CMS 1/5 99 beds For-profit Medicaid
Nurse hours
4.54 /day
Staff turnover
37%
Serious cites
0

Grand Valley runs a 99-bed for-profit operation in Van Nuys, and the numbers pull in two directions. The nursing staff puts in 4.54 hours per resident day, roughly 18 percent above the national average, and turnover sits at 36.9 percent against a national 45.8, so the people caring for residents are comparatively stable, though weekend coverage drops about 13 percent below weekday levels. The trouble is the inspection record: 70 deficiencies, one at harm or jeopardy level, four tied to abuse, and two fines totaling $78,830, with the most recent inspection in January 2026. A 1-out-of-5 inspection rating against 4s for quality measures and staffing is the whole story here, steady care on paper, serious compliance problems in practice.

Greenfield Care Center Of South Gate

South Gate, CA · Los Angeles County

Nurse hours

Staff turnover

Serious cites

Greenfield Care Center Of South Gate runs a for-profit operation under a limited liability company, licensed for 99 beds. The nursing hours look decent on paper, 4.07 per resident day, about 5% above the national average, and turnover at 42.9% is slightly better than the 45.8% norm. But the inspection record is where things fall apart: 97 deficiencies on file, including 12 tied to abuse and two serious enough to put residents in harm's way, along with a $57,906 fine. Weekend staffing drops roughly 7% below weekday levels, meaning the hours you see aren't always the hours your family member gets. The most recent inspection was July 2025, so the record is current, not stale. Worth asking hard questions before you decide.

Nurse hours

Staff turnover
46%
Serious cites
0

College Vista Post-Acute runs about 4.37 nurse hours per resident day, roughly 13% above the national average, but weekend staffing drops about 11% below its own weekday level. The inspection record is where the trouble sits: 36 deficiencies, three at harm or jeopardy level and one abuse-related, with two fines totaling $43,568 and a May 2025 inspection still fresh. Staff turnover of 46.4% is essentially the national rate, so continuity isn't a strength here. The 4/5 quality measure score reflects chart-based measures, not the survey findings, for-profit corporate ownership and a 2/5 inspection rating mean you should read the full survey report before deciding.

Nurse hours

Pacific Coast Post Acute runs 149 certified beds in Salinas under corporate ownership, and the staffing numbers are the first thing to notice: 3.63 nurse hours per resident day, about 6% under the national average, with weekends running slightly leaner than weekdays. Turnover sits at 36.3%, which is actually better than the 45.8% national figure, that matters, because consistent caregivers know residents. The inspection record is heavier: 39 deficiencies, including one at the harm level and two tied to abuse, plus $19,786 in fines across two penalties. The most recent inspection was February 2025, so the picture is current. Strong quality measures and a solid survey history don't erase what those deficiency numbers mean for daily life.

Almond Vista Healthcare

Nurse hours

Staff turnover
48%
Serious cites
0

Almond Vista runs 4.29 nurse hours per resident day, about 11% above the national average, but that cushion thins on weekends, when staffing drops roughly 8% below its own weekday level. The bigger issue is what inspectors have found: 63 deficiencies on the current record, including six at the harm or jeopardy level and three tied to abuse, with five fines totaling $25,881 and a health inspection rating of 1 out of 5. Staff turnover sits at 47.7%, slightly above the national average, so even the decent overall staffing number reflects a workforce that keeps cycling through. The quality measure score looks fine, but that's built from resident assessments, not from how the place is actually run day to day.

Poway Healthcare Center sits in San Diego County with 99 certified beds under for-profit LLC ownership. Nurse staffing averages 3.97 hours per resident day, a bit above the national average of 3.86, though weekends run roughly 8% lighter than weekdays. Annual turnover at 42.5% is slightly better than the 45.8% national figure, and its last inspection was recent, in May 2025. What complicates the picture is the deficiency record: 35 total, including one abuse-related citation, though none reached the harm or jeopardy level. The two four-star ratings for health inspections and quality measures look stronger than the two-star staffing rating, which is where the tension sits.

Mountain View Post Acute sits in Barstow with 59 certified beds and a corporate for-profit owner. The raw staffing number looks decent, 4.40 nurse hours per resident day, roughly 14% above the national average, but weekends run about 9% thinner than weekdays, and turnover hits 54.9% against a national 45.8%. That churn matters more than the headline hours, which is likely why CMS gives staffing just 2 out of 5 stars. Inspections are the bright spot: a 5-star health inspection rating, last survey in June 2025, and 21 deficiencies with none at harm or jeopardy level, though one is abuse-related. Quality measures land mid-pack at 3 stars. Solid oversight, shaky workforce stability.

Ahmc Seton Medical Center

Nurse hours

Staff turnover

Ahmc Seton Medical Center has real strengths in its daily care numbers. Nurse staffing sits at 5.81 hours per resident day, roughly half again the national average, and the 34.1% turnover rate is meaningfully better than the 45.8% typical elsewhere, which matters for whether you see the same faces week to week. Weekend coverage dips only slightly, about 6% below weekdays, so care doesn't fall off a cliff on Saturdays. The trouble is the inspection record. Sixty-one deficiencies, seven serious enough to put residents in harm's way, four tied to abuse, and three fines totaling $41,019. A for-profit limited liability company running 186 beds with a one-star health inspection rating carries real risk, no matter how well the place is staffed.

Cedar Mountain Post Acute runs 99 beds in Yucaipa under limited-liability, for-profit ownership, and its most recent health inspection came in late November 2025. Inspectors have logged 24 deficiencies on the current record, though none rose to harm or jeopardy level and none involved abuse, a meaningful distinction if you're weighing what actually went wrong here. Nurse staffing sits at 4.65 hours per resident day, roughly 20 percent above the national average of 3.86, but weekends dip about 5 percent below the home's own weekday coverage. Annual turnover is 46.5 percent, essentially tracking the national rate of 45.8 percent, so continuity of caregivers is average at best. Ask specifically how weekend coverage holds up on the shift you'd be visiting.

Rancho Mesa Care Center runs 59 beds in Alta Loma under for-profit LLC ownership, and the numbers tell a mixed story. Nurse staffing sits at 3.72 hours per resident day, about 4% under the national average, and weekends drop roughly 9% below what the home itself staffs on weekdays, so coverage thins out exactly when families tend to visit. Annual turnover of 51.5% tops the national 45.8% mark, meaning more than half the nursing staff leaves each year. The good news: state inspectors were last in on September 18, 2025, the home holds 30 deficiencies with none at harm or jeopardy level and none abuse-related, and both inspection and quality measure ratings land at 4 of 5 stars. The staffing rating, however, sits at 2.
