Imperial Crest Health Care Center

Hawthorne, CA · Los Angeles County

CMS 3/5 105 beds For-profit Medicaid
Nurse hours

Staff turnover
36%

0

Imperial Crest runs 4.75 nurse hours per resident day, roughly 23% above the national average of 3.86, and weekend staffing dips only about 8% below its own weekday level, a modest drop. Staff turnover sits at 35.5%, better than the national 45.8%, which suggests the payroll is somewhat stable. What holds the record down is the inspection side: 47 deficiencies, four of them abuse-related, with a last visit in April 2025. None of those 47 rose to harm or jeopardy level, so the problems are serious enough to count but not the worst category CMS tracks. A 3/5 on health inspections, quality measures, and staffing across the board.

Bel Vista runs 4.65 nurse hours per resident day, roughly 20% above the national average of 3.86, and weekends dip about 13% below its own weekday coverage. The clinical numbers look strong, but staffing churns at 51.9% a year against a 45.8% national rate, and the inspection record carries 64 deficiencies, including one at the harm level and three tied to abuse. State inspectors were last in on May 18, 2025, and one fine totaling $29,543 sits on the books. It's a for-profit corporate home with 41 beds. Solid day-to-day care measures, a rougher paper trail.

Vista Del Sol Care Center sits in Los Angeles with 50 certified beds under for-profit LLC ownership. The staffing numbers are the strongest part of the picture: 4.87 nurse hours per resident day, roughly a quarter above the national average, and a 33.3% turnover rate that's meaningfully better than the 45.8% norm. Where it gets harder is the inspection record, 61 deficiencies, including 2 at harm or jeopardy level and 8 tied to abuse, plus two fines totaling $116,475. A recent May 2026 inspection means the record is current. Strong daily staffing, but the compliance history is the thing to ask about directly.

Grand Oaks Care runs a 99-bed for-profit home in Tulare, and the staffing picture is mixed. The 4.25 nurse hours per resident day sits about 10% above the national average, which sounds good until you notice weekends run roughly 10% leaner than weekdays and turnover hits 50.4% against a national 45.8%, meaning a lot of the people providing that care are new or on their way out. Inspections from February 2026 turned up 55 deficiencies, none at the harm level but one tied to abuse. Ownership is a limited liability company, and the quality measure score looks stronger than the staffing score.

Serious cites
0

San Rafael Healthcare & Wellness Center runs 54 certified beds under for-profit LLC ownership, and its nurse staffing sits at 3.91 hours per resident day, just barely above the national average of 3.86, roughly a 1% edge. That thin margin matters because weekend staffing drops about 9% below its own weekday level, so the coverage families see on a Tuesday isn't what they get on a Saturday. The bigger concern is the inspection record: 53 deficiencies, including one at the harm or jeopardy level and three tied to abuse, with a single fine of $8,278. The last inspection was March 20, 2025. Quality and staffing both rate 4 out of 5, but the health inspection side tells a different story.

Mid-Wilshire Health Care Center runs 80 certified beds in Los Angeles under for-profit limited liability ownership. Nurse staffing sits at 3.80 hours per resident day, slightly under the national average, and weekends dip a bit below its own weekday level. The inspection record is the real story: 51 deficiencies on file, including 4 at harm or jeopardy level and 7 tied to abuse, plus three fines totaling $80,922. Its quality measure star is strong at 4 out of 5, but that reflects resident assessment data, not the day-to-day care environment. With a 1-out-of-5 inspection rating and the most recent survey completed March 12, 2026, the pattern across these numbers is consistent.

Valley Healthcare Center runs 109 certified beds in San Bernardino, and its nurse staffing sits at 4.01 hours per resident day, about 4% above the national average, though weekends dip roughly 7% below its own weekday levels, which matters if your family visits or calls on Saturdays and Sundays. The inspection record is where things get harder to ignore: 44 deficiencies, one of them serious enough to reach harm or jeopardy level, plus a single fine of $37,151. No abuse citations appear on the current record, and the most recent inspection was March 2025, so the picture is fairly current. Quality measures score well, but that's family and resident surveys, not the surveyors who walked the building.

Montrose Springs runs 109 certified beds under for-profit LLC ownership, and its nurse staffing sits at 3.92 hours per resident day, just above the national average of 3.86, with weekends dipping about 5% below weekdays. That thin cushion matters less than the inspection record: 79 deficiencies on file, three at harm or jeopardy level and three tied to abuse, plus a $32,139 fine. The 5/5 quality measure rating reflects reported clinical metrics, but the 2/5 health inspection rating and the July 2025 survey tell you regulators have found real problems here, not paperwork slips.

Apple Valley Care Center runs 99 certified beds under for-profit LLC ownership, and the staffing picture is genuinely strong on paper: 4.85 total nurse hours per resident day, roughly a quarter above the national average. Weekends dip about 17% below weekday levels, so ask how that plays out on a Sunday. Turnover sits at 35.1%, noticeably better than the 45.8% national figure, which matters for continuity. The inspection record is where things get mixed, a 5-star health inspection rating and zero harm-level or abuse-related deficiencies, but 23 deficiencies total and one fine of $8,021. The most recent inspection was December 2025, so the record is current.

Kings Healthcare & Wellness Center in Hanford runs 4.36 nurse hours per resident day, about 13% above the national average of 3.86, yet CMS still scores its staffing at the lowest level, largely because weekend coverage drops roughly 9% below what the home provides on weekdays. The inspection record is heavier than the star ratings suggest: 23 deficiencies, including 2 at harm or jeopardy level and 1 abuse-related, plus one fine of $8,824, with the most recent inspection on January 16, 2025. Ownership is for-profit, individual. Strong marks on health inspections and quality measures sit alongside a thin staffing picture and a deficiency count that a family should ask about directly.

Ridgecrest, CA · Kern County

CMS 3/5 124 beds Non-profit Medicaid
Nurse hours
4.41 /day
Staff turnover
45%
Serious cites
0

Ridgecrest Regional runs on better-than-average nurse coverage: 4.41 hours per resident day, roughly 14 percent above the national figure. But weekends drop about 17 percent below its own weekday staffing, so the care your family member gets on a Saturday may look different from a Tuesday. The inspection record is the bigger concern, 45 deficiencies, including one at the harm level and three tied to abuse, plus a $27,716 fine. Staff turnover at 45.4 percent is essentially the national rate, meaning nearly half the nursing workforce changes over each year. Ownership is nonprofit, and the last inspection was February 2026, so the record is current.

Anberry Post Acute runs 120 beds in Merced under for-profit partnership ownership, and its staffing number is the first thing worth noticing: 2.92 nurse hours per resident day, roughly a quarter below the national average. Weekends drop another 15% below its own weekday level, so coverage thins out exactly when families tend to visit. Turnover sits at 41.3%, a bit better than the national 45.8%, which suggests some stability in who's actually on the floor. The inspection record shows 27 deficiencies, none at harm or jeopardy level and none abuse-related, with the last visit in December 2024. Quality measures score well; staffing and health inspections do not. If you're weighing this one, ask how the low weekday numbers feel on a Sunday.

River View Post Acute runs 99 certified beds under for-profit LLC ownership, and its nurse staffing sits at 4.12 hours per resident day, roughly 7% above the national average of 3.86. That looks decent on paper until you notice weekends run about 7% leaner than weekdays, and annual turnover hits 55.7% against a national 45.8%, meaning more than half the nursing staff leaves each year. The inspection record is the bigger concern: 74 deficiencies, including one at harm or jeopardy level and five tied to abuse. CMS scored health inspections 2 out of 5 stars, and the last survey was December 19, 2025. Quality measures rate 4 stars, but that's the softer side of the picture.

San Gabriel Conv Center runs on a for-profit, limited liability setup with 151 certified beds, and its nurse staffing sits at 4.84 hours per resident day, roughly a quarter above the national average of 3.86. Staff turnover lands at 37.9%, better than the 45.8% national figure, though weekend coverage dips about 5% below the home's own weekday level. The inspection record is where things get harder to square: 47 deficiencies on file, including one at the harm or jeopardy level and two tied to abuse. A May 2025 inspection is recent, but federal ratings put health inspections and quality measures at 2 out of 5 each.

Heritage Gardens Health Care Center

Heritage Gardens runs 110 beds in Loma Linda under corporate ownership, and its inspection record is the first thing to weigh: 45 deficiencies on file, three of them abuse-related, though none rose to the level of actual harm or jeopardy. The May 2026 inspection is recent, so that count reflects current conditions rather than old problems. Staffing is where the numbers get harder to ignore. At 3.81 nurse hours per resident day, it trails the national average slightly, and weekends run about 9% thinner than weekdays, which matters when families visit less and eyes are fewer. The turnover figure is the real outlier: 100% annual staff turnover against a national average of 45.8%. That's essentially a new workforce every year, and it's difficult to build consistent care on that kind of churn.

The Springs Post-Acute runs a for-profit LLC with 99 beds in Norwalk, and its staffing is genuinely a cut above: 4.96 nurse hours per resident day, roughly 28% over the national average, with turnover at 27.6% compared to the 45.8% norm. That consistency holds even on weekends, when hours dip only about 8% below weekdays. Then you hit the inspection record. Seventy-one deficiencies, four serious enough to cause harm, ten tied to abuse, and a $66,866 fine, all on a one-out-of-five health inspection rating, despite the four-out-of-five quality measure score. The last inspection closed April 23, 2026, so this isn't old history. Good hands on deck matter, but they're working inside a documented pattern of serious problems.

Valley View Post Acute runs about 3.97 nurse hours per resident per day, a hair above the national average of 3.86, but weekends dip roughly 7% below its own weekday coverage. The bigger issue is the inspection record: 60 deficiencies, including one at the harm or jeopardy level and one tied to abuse, plus a $24,668 fine. Staff turnover sits at 50% against a national 45.8%, and the health inspection and staffing ratings both land at 2 out of 5. That combination, thin weekend coverage, high turnover, and a serious deficiency history, is what pulls the overall picture down despite strong marks on quality measures.

Jacob Healthcare Center in San Diego runs 128 certified beds under for-profit LLC ownership, and its staffing numbers tell a mixed story. Total nurse coverage sits at 4.60 hours per resident day, roughly 19% above the national average of 3.86, but weekends dip about 3% below the home's own weekday level, so the floor isn't as steady as the top-line figure suggests. Annual turnover is 58.9% against a national 45.8%, meaning a large share of the staff you'd meet is relatively new. The inspection record shows 36 deficiencies with none at harm or jeopardy level and none abuse-related, and the most recent survey was in January 2026, so the picture is current.

Highland Palms runs a for-profit operation with 99 certified beds, and its inspection and quality scores both come in at 4 out of 5, that's a solid record on paper, with 29 deficiencies logged but none rising to harm or jeopardy, and the most recent inspection done in April 2026. Staffing tells a different story: 2 out of 5 stars, with total nurse hours sitting just under the national average and weekends running roughly 4% thinner than weekdays. Turnover at 39.3% is better than the 45.8% national figure, which suggests people tend to stay. Three abuse-related deficiencies are on the record, so ask about those directly before you decide.

Heartwood Avenue Healthcare runs 60 beds in Vallejo under for-profit LLC ownership, and its staffing is the weak spot: 3.83 nurse hours per resident day sits just under the national average, and weekends drop about 7% below its own weekday levels. Staff turnover is 55.7% against a national 45.8%, roughly a quarter more churn than typical. The inspection record is where the real concerns show: 34 deficiencies, four at harm or jeopardy level, two abuse-related, and $16,988 in fines. A recent May 2026 inspection means the record is current. The quality measure rating looks better than the staffing one, but that gap between reported care quality and actual bedside coverage is worth asking about directly.
