Staff turnover
24%

0

Coastal View in Ventura runs on 5.22 nurse hours per resident day, about a third more staffing than the national average, and its caregivers tend to stick around, turnover is roughly half the national rate. Quality measures score at the top of CMS's scale, and the last inspection was recent, December 2025. The record isn't spotless. Inspectors have logged 36 deficiencies, one serious enough to involve harm, and a fine of $8,278. Weekend staffing also dips below its own weekday level, which is worth asking about directly. The strong staffing and low turnover are doing most of the work here; the survey history is what keeps this from being a cleaner picture.

Woods Health Services runs a nonprofit operation with 74 beds in La Verne, and the staffing numbers are genuinely above average: 4.74 nurse hours per resident day, roughly 23% over the national figure. Staff turnover sits at 39.7%, better than the 45.8% national rate, which suggests people stick around longer here than at many places. The trouble is the inspection record. Sixty-four deficiencies, three of them at harm or jeopardy level and one abuse-related, with a two-out-of-five health inspection rating and a May 2026 inspection date. Quality measures score five out of five, but that's self-reported data, and it doesn't cancel out what surveyors actually found in the building.

The Meadows Post Acute sits in Panorama City with 98 certified beds and a for-profit LLC owner. Its nurse staffing runs 4.57 hours per resident day, about 18% above the national average, and turnover is 29.5%, noticeably better than the 45.8% typical nationwide. Those are real strengths. But the inspection record tells a different story: 46 deficiencies, three at the harm or jeopardy level and two tied to abuse, plus a $20,790 fine and a one-star health inspection rating. The most recent inspection date is February 12, 2026. With weekend staffing about 9% below its weekday level, consistent coverage may be a question worth asking about directly.

Pacific Palms Healthcare has a staffing story that looks good on paper, 4.25 nurse hours per resident day, roughly 10% above the national average, and turnover at 26.7% against a national 45.8%. But the inspection record tells a different story: 67 deficiencies, including one at the harm level and four tied to abuse. The single health inspection star of 1 out of 5 reflects that, even as the quality measure rating sits at 5 out of 5. That gap between reported quality scores and actual survey findings is worth sitting with. Weekend staffing also dips about 9% below weekday levels. The last inspection was in November 2025, so the record is current.

Tampico Healthcare Center runs 128 beds in Walnut Creek under individual for-profit ownership, and its staffing is the strongest part of the story: 4.47 nurse hours per resident day, roughly 16% above the national average, with weekend coverage dipping only about 10% below its own weekday level. Annual turnover sits at 32.3%, well under the 45.8% national figure, which suggests a steadier crew than most. The tradeoff is inspection history, 40 deficiencies on record, two tied to abuse, though none at the harm or jeopardy level, and the most recent survey was in March 2025. Quality measures score 5/5, staffing 4/5, inspections 3/5.

Westlake Convalescent Hospital runs 6.74 total nurse hours per resident day, roughly 75% above the national average of 3.86, and its staff turnover sits at 23% against a national figure near 46%. Those numbers matter more than the 3/5 inspection rating, since the 40 deficiencies on record include none at the harm or jeopardy level and none tied to abuse, and the most recent inspection was in July 2025. Weekend staffing dips only about 5% below the home's own weekday level, which is a smaller drop than many places show. This is a 114-bed for-profit in Los Angeles where the care hours and retention are doing the heavy lifting.

Redwood Terrace runs on a nonprofit model in Escondido, and the staffing numbers show it: 4.45 nurse hours per resident per day, roughly 15% above the national average, with a 5/5 CMS staffing rating to match. Weekend coverage dips about 11% below weekday levels, which is worth asking about if your family visits mainly on Saturdays and Sundays. Turnover sits at 34.9%, noticeably better than the 45.8% national figure, so caregivers tend to stick around here. The current record carries 17 deficiencies, none at harm or jeopardy level, though two are abuse-related, a category you should ask administrators to explain directly. The last inspection was August 2025.

Villa Marin sits in San Rafael with just 31 certified beds and nonprofit ownership, and the staffing number is the first thing that stands out: 7.15 nurse hours per resident day, roughly 85% above the national average. That's an unusual amount of hands-on care, though weekend coverage drops about 21% below its own weekday level, so the daily experience may depend on when you visit. The record isn't spotless, 21 deficiencies, including one at the harm level and one tied to abuse, plus a single $7,443 fine. The last inspection was November 2025, so the picture is current. Strong quality measures and recent oversight offset a fair amount of that history.

Danville Post-Acute Rehab runs 54 beds under corporate ownership, and its nurse staffing sits at 4.53 hours per resident day, roughly 17% above the national average. Weekend coverage dips about 12% below its own weekday numbers, so the hours aren't evenly spread across the week, but the overall staffing picture holds up. Turnover runs 30.6%, well below the national 45.8%, which suggests a steadier workforce than most. The record shows 17 deficiencies, none at the harm or jeopardy level, though one is abuse-related. Its last inspection was October 2024, and the 5/5 quality measure score stands out against a 3/5 inspection rating, strong day-to-day care numbers, a more mixed regulatory history.

The Fountains runs on a non-profit model in Yuba City, and the numbers behind its A grade point to steady, well-funded care. Nurse staffing sits at 3.96 hours per resident day, a bit above the national average, and weekend coverage drops only about 6% from weekday levels, a gap far smaller than what many homes show. What stands out most is the 15% annual turnover against a national rate near 46%, suggesting a workforce that largely stays put. Inspections in March 2025 turned up 28 deficiencies, none at the harm level, though four were abuse-related. Quality and inspection ratings both land high, so the record is solid with that one caveat worth asking about directly.

Mountains Community Hospital's skilled nursing unit runs on a hospital district's license with just 19 certified beds, and its inspection record is clean where it counts: ten deficiencies on file, none at the harm level, none tied to abuse, and a survey completed in June 2025. The staffing picture cuts against expectations, though. Reported nurse hours come to 7.12 per resident day, roughly 84 percent above the national figure, yet CMS scores staffing 1 out of 5 and weekend coverage drops about 10 percent below weekdays. Turnover sits at 37.5 percent, better than the 45.8 percent national rate. Quality measures land mid-range at 3 out of 5.

River Valley Care Center runs a 99-bed for-profit operation in Live Oak, and the staffing picture is genuinely better than most: 4.04 nurse hours per resident day, roughly 5% above the national average, with weekend coverage dipping about 7% below its own weekday levels. Turnover sits at 32.3%, well under the 45.8% national figure, which matters for whether aides know residents' routines. The trouble is the inspection record, 53 deficiencies, including one at harm level and one abuse-related, with the most recent inspection in June 2025. Quality measures score well, but that's largely self-reported data. The gap between how this home charts and how it performs under surveyor scrutiny is the real story.

Terrace View runs 4.86 nurse hours per resident day against a national average of 3.86, and weekend coverage dips only about 11% below its own weekday level, so the floor doesn't empty out on Saturdays. Annual turnover of 24.3% is roughly half the national rate, which matters more than any single number here: experienced aides tend to know the residents. The catch is the inspection record, 58 deficiencies, six tied to abuse, none reaching harm or jeopardy. A 5/5 on quality measures sits next to a 3/5 on inspections, and that gap is worth asking about directly. Last inspection was February 2026, so the record is current. Corporate-owned, 59 beds.

Devonshire Oaks runs about 4.64 nurse hours per resident day, roughly 20% above the national average, which is the kind of staffing number that matters most on evenings and weekends. Weekend coverage does dip about 16% below its own weekday level, so the weekday-to-weekend gap is real even if the floor stays relatively high. The home has 28 deficiencies on its current record, including one at the harm level, with no abuse citations. Its last inspection was January 2025, so the picture is fairly current. The ownership is corporate for-profit. Nothing here reads as a red flag on staffing or quality measures; the deficiency count is the piece worth asking about directly.

Arbol Healthcare Center of Santa Rosa runs 45 certified beds under for-profit LLC ownership, and its nurse staffing sits at 5.62 hours per resident day, roughly 46% above the national average of 3.86. Weekend coverage dips about 9% below its own weekday level, and annual turnover is 50%, a bit higher than the 45.8% national figure. The current record shows 36 deficiencies with none at the harm or jeopardy level, though one is abuse-related. A 4/5 health inspection rating, a 5/5 quality measure rating, and a recent November 2025 inspection round out the picture, strong staffing and quality numbers, with the abuse citation and turnover worth asking about directly.

Huntington Healthcare Center runs 99 certified beds in Los Angeles under corporate for-profit ownership, and its staffing numbers tell a mixed story. Total nurse coverage sits at 4.03 hours per resident day, a bit above the national average of 3.86, though weekends drop roughly 8% below weekday levels. Turnover is the real bright spot at 30%, well under the national 45.8%, that kind of retention matters for consistent care. The inspection record shows 26 deficiencies with none at harm or jeopardy level and no abuse findings, plus one fine of $13,635. A December 2025 inspection keeps that picture current. Quality and staffing star ratings both come in at 1 out of 5 despite the decent raw staffing hours, which suggests the numbers behind those measures don't track as favorably.

Good Samaritan Rehab And Care Center in Stockton runs on 4.28 nurse hours per resident day, roughly 11% above the national average, and its staff turnover of 23.7% is about half the national rate, a real advantage in a field where aides cycling out the door is the norm. The catch is inspections: 45 deficiencies on the current record, and a two-star health inspection rating, even though none of those rose to harm or jeopardy and there's no abuse history. Weekend staffing also drops about 15% below its own weekday level, so coverage isn't evenly spread. Ownership is for-profit corporate, and the last inspection was February 2025. Strong staffing, weak survey history.

Fairfield Post Acute runs 99 beds under for-profit LLC ownership, and the numbers suggest a home that's better staffed than most. Its 4.31 nurse hours per resident day sits about 12% above the national average of 3.86, and turnover at 38.7% beats the 45.8% national figure, meaning fewer caregivers are walking out the door here than elsewhere. Weekend coverage dips roughly 11% below weekday levels, so ask how that plays out on Saturdays. The health inspection side is where it gets uneven: 26 deficiencies on record, one tied to abuse, though none reached harm or jeopardy, and the last inspection closed in January 2026.

Staff turnover sits at 28.6%, well under the national 45.8%, which matters for whether caregivers actually know the residents. The tradeoff is a long deficiency record: 43 citations on file, though none reached harm or jeopardy, and two are abuse-related. State inspectors visited as recently as November 2025 and still rated health inspections 4 out of 5. For-profit, limited liability ownership, 59 beds.

Watsonville Nursing Center runs 87 certified beds under for-profit LLC ownership, and its nurse staffing sits at 3.97 hours per resident day, a bit above the national average of 3.86. Weekend coverage dips about 6% below its own weekday level, which is worth asking about if your family visits on Saturdays. The standout number is turnover: 27.1%, well under the national 45.8%, meaning the aides and nurses who'd be caring for your relative tend to stick around. Against that, the home carries 42 deficiencies, including one at the harm or jeopardy level and one tied to abuse, plus a $44,488 fine. Its last inspection was January 9, 2026.
