Nursing homes across Mesa County, Colorado, graded on the federal inspection
record, nurse staffing and staff turnover. County rank is shown on each home's profile.
Center At Foresight in Grand Junction runs on unusually deep nurse staffing, 5.00 hours per resident day, roughly 29% above the national average, and its inspection record backs that up: six deficiencies on file, none at the harm or jeopardy level, none tied to abuse. Weekend coverage dips about 14% below its own weekday level, worth asking about if your family visits Saturdays or Sundays, though the home's overall staffing still clears the national bar comfortably. Staff turnover sits at 46.7%, essentially matching the national average of 45.8%, so continuity of caregivers here looks typical rather than exceptional. The last inspection was March 2026, so the record is current.
La Villa Grande runs lean on nursing hours, 3.24 per resident day, roughly 16% under the national average, and weekends dip another 15% below its own weekday coverage. That gap matters most when a resident needs help on a Saturday night.
The inspection record is the bigger concern: 33 deficiencies, four serious enough to involve harm or jeopardy, two tied to abuse, and five fines totaling $89,269. A May 2025 inspection means the picture is current, not stale.
One genuine bright spot: turnover sits at 34.8%, well below the 45.8% national figure, so the staff who are there tend to stay. But steady staff can't stretch far when there aren't enough hours to go around.
Eagle Ridge Post Acute runs 70 beds in Grand Junction under corporate ownership, and the numbers tell a split story. The clinical quality measures look strong, but that 1-out-of-5 inspection rating sits on 47 deficiencies, including four at harm or jeopardy level and four tied to abuse. Staffing runs about 10% under the national average at 3.46 nurse hours per resident day, weekends drop roughly 14% below weekdays, and 62.7% annual turnover means the aides and nurses your family sees keep changing. Four fines totaling $71,637 round out the record, last inspected in June 2024. Good quality scores don't offset a thin, churning workforce and a serious inspection history.
Red Cliffs Post Acute runs 89 certified beds in Grand Junction under corporate for-profit ownership, and the staffing numbers are the first thing to notice. At 3.11 nurse hours per resident day, it sits about 19% under the national average, and weekend coverage dips roughly 7% below its own weekday level, so care thins out exactly when families tend to visit. Staff turnover of 54.4% is nearly nine points above the national figure, which means unfamiliar faces are routine. The inspection record shows 43 deficiencies, including one at the harm or jeopardy level and four tied to abuse, with the most recent inspection in January 2025.
Canyon View Care Center runs 88 certified beds in Palisade under corporate for-profit ownership, and its staffing sits at 3.45 nurse hours per resident day, roughly 11% under the national average of 3.86, with weekends about 12% thinner than its own weekdays. Turnover is 31.7%, well below the national 45.8%, so the crew that's there tends to stay. What pulls the record down is the inspection side: 43 deficiencies on file, four of them at harm or jeopardy level and three tied to abuse, plus two fines totaling $28,322, with the most recent inspection in July 2024. The quality measures look strong; the survey history is where the risk sits.
Larchwood Health and Rehab runs 130 certified beds in Grand Junction under corporate for-profit ownership, and its nurse staffing sits at 3.40 hours per resident day, roughly 12% under the national average of 3.86. Weekends are thinner still, down about 19% from its own weekday coverage, which is where gaps tend to show up.
The inspection record is the bigger concern: 38 deficiencies on file, including 4 at the harm or jeopardy level and 7 tied to abuse. Two fines totaling $28,685 and a 2-out-of-5 inspection rating point the same direction. The last inspection was April 2024, so that record is fairly recent. Ask about weekend coverage and how abuse allegations get investigated before you decide.
Mantey Heights runs about 19% leaner on nurse staffing than the national average, 3.12 hours per resident day against 3.86, and it thins out further on weekends, when coverage drops roughly 8% below its own weekday level. That staffing picture gets harder to defend alongside a 58.3% annual turnover rate, well above the 45.8% national figure, because residents see a rotating cast rather than a consistent crew. The inspection record is the heavier concern: 55 deficiencies on file, seven of them serious enough to put residents in harm's way, plus nine tied to abuse. Three fines totaling $117,284 have followed. Whatever the quality measures show, the people responsible for daily care here are stretched thin and constantly changing.
