Village On The Isle runs 48 certified beds in Venice, and the numbers behind its grade are mostly about people, not paperwork. Nurse staffing sits at 5.74 hours per resident day, roughly half again the national average, and turnover is 9.7% against a national 45.8%, that stability matters more than any single inspection finding. Weekend coverage dips about 8% below weekdays, which is worth asking about directly. Three deficiencies on record, none at harm or jeopardy level and none abuse-related, with the last inspection in May 2024. It's a for-profit corporate home, but the staffing and retention figures don't read like one.

Glenridge on Palmer Ranch runs about 5.05 nurse hours per resident each day, roughly a third more than the national average of 3.86, and its weekend coverage dips only slightly below its own weekday levels. Staff turnover sits at 18.5 percent against a national average near 46 percent, people tend to stay here. The current record shows no deficiencies at all, none at the harm level and none tied to abuse, and the last inspection dates to April 2024. As a nonprofit with 61 beds, it's small enough to know its residents. The three CMS star ratings all come in at the top mark.

Sunnyside runs on church-affiliated nonprofit ownership, and the numbers show what that stability buys. Nurse staffing sits at 5.16 hours per resident day, roughly a third more than the national average, and weekend coverage only dips about 11% below weekdays, so care doesn't quietly thin out when families visit on Saturdays. Staff turnover of 23.1% is about half the national rate, which matters because consistent caregivers know the residents. Four deficiencies on record, none causing harm and none abuse-related, with an inspection in May 2025. For 60 beds, that's a tight, well-tended operation.

Sarasota Memorial runs 4.58 nurse hours per resident day, roughly 19% above the national average, and the weekend dip is only about 7% off its own weekday level, modest as these things go. The turnover number is the one that stands out: 8.6% against a national average near 46%. Staff who stay put tend to know the residents. Inspections in March 2025 turned up 10 deficiencies, one serious enough to involve harm or jeopardy, none abuse-related. As a nonprofit with 120 beds and top marks in staffing and quality measures, the gaps here look narrow rather than structural.

The Inn at Sarasota Bay Club runs on 5.75 nurse hours per resident per day, roughly half again the national average of 3.86, and it holds that level on weekends instead of thinning out. Staff turnover sits at 42.2%, a bit better than the 45.8% national figure, which matters for whether caregivers actually know the residents. Eleven deficiencies appear on the current record, none causing harm or jeopardy and none abuse-related, with the most recent inspection in August 2024. For-profit corporate ownership is the one thing here that doesn't distinguish it; the staffing numbers do.

Pines of Sarasota runs on more nursing time than most homes in the country, 4.20 hours per resident day against a national average of 3.86. That margin matters, though weekends here run about 9% thinner than weekdays, so ask how coverage looks on a Sunday. Staff turnover sits at 41%, a bit better than the 45.8% national figure, which suggests people stay. The inspection record shows nine deficiencies, none at harm or jeopardy level, one tied to abuse, worth asking about directly. State inspectors last visited in May 2024, and the nonprofit ownership means no shareholder pressure on the budget.

Benderson Family runs 45 beds in Sarasota under corporate ownership, and the numbers hold up well. Nurse staffing sits at 4.72 hours per resident day, roughly 22% above the national average of 3.86, and weekends dip only about 6% below weekday levels, a smaller drop than many homes show. Turnover is 46.3%, essentially matching the national 45.8%, so you're not looking at a churning floor staff. Ten deficiencies appear on the current record, none at harm or jeopardy level and none abuse-related, with the last inspection in June 2025. The one caveat: corporate for-profit ownership means decisions about this building get made somewhere else.

Sarasota Point Rehabilitation Center runs 120 certified beds under for-profit LLC ownership, and its last health inspection was in October 2024. The record shows 10 deficiencies, including one at the harm or jeopardy level and one tied to abuse, findings worth asking about directly. Nurse staffing sits at 3.47 hours per resident day, roughly 10% under the national average of 3.86, and weekends run about 8% leaner than weekdays. Staff turnover is 41%, a bit better than the 45.8% national figure, and the quality measure score is strong. The softer spot is direct care time, especially on weekends.

Bay Village Of Sarasota runs on a nonprofit model with 95 certified beds, and its nurse staffing sits at 4.98 hours per resident day, roughly 29% above the national average of 3.86. Weekends dip only about 3% below weekday levels, so coverage stays fairly consistent. The tradeoff shows up in its inspection record: 11 deficiencies, none at the harm or jeopardy level, but one tied to abuse, with the most recent inspection dated April 2024. Resident outcomes look solid, with a 4-out-of-5 quality measure rating and 4 out of 5 on staffing, while health inspections land at 3. The picture is a well-staffed home with a clean harm record but a blemish worth asking about directly.

Hawthorne Center runs on leaner weekday nurse coverage than the typical U.S. nursing home, and weekends dip about 8% below its own weekday level, so the quietest shifts get the thinnest staffing. What stands out more is retention: 23.8% annual turnover is roughly half the national rate, which matters because consistent caregivers tend to know residents' baselines. The inspection record is strong, with a 5/5 health inspection rating and the most recent survey completed in May 2026, though the current file still carries 8 deficiencies, one serious enough to involve harm or jeopardy, plus one fine of $8,512. For-profit LLC ownership.

Creekside runs 178 beds in Sarasota under corporate ownership, and its staffing sits at 3.68 nurse hours per resident day, about 5% under the national figure of 3.86. Weekends dip roughly 7% below its own weekday coverage, and turnover runs 51.3% against a national 45.8%, so the aides and nurses your relative sees may change often. The inspection record shows 18 deficiencies, two of them abuse-related, though none rose to harm or jeopardy level; the last state visit was February 2025, so the picture is reasonably current. Quality measures score well, staffing is middling, and inspections are the weak spot.

Venice Health and Rehabilitation Center runs 120 beds under for-profit LLC ownership, and its nurse staffing sits at 3.67 hours per resident day, roughly 5% under the national average of 3.86. Weekends dip about 6% below its own weekday coverage, which matters when a resident needs help on a Saturday. Staff turnover is 49.6%, higher than the national 45.8%, so familiar faces are harder to keep. The inspection record shows 19 deficiencies, including two at the harm or jeopardy level and one tied to abuse, with $16,984 in fines and the last inspection in March 2024. Quality measure scores look strong, but the staffing and inspection side is where the concern lives.

Vivo Healthcare Meadows runs 120 beds in Sarasota under for-profit LLC ownership, and its nurse staffing sits at 3.56 hours per resident day, roughly 8% under the national average, with weekends running about 8% thinner than its own weekdays. Annual turnover is 51.2% against a national 45.8%, so the people who do show up keep changing. The inspection record is the heavier issue: 34 deficiencies, two of them at harm or jeopardy level, and a one-star health inspection rating, though no abuse citations. Quality measures score well and the last inspection was October 2024. Ask about weekend coverage and which specific deficiencies were cited before deciding.

Siesta Key Health and Rehabilitation Center runs 120 certified beds in Sarasota under for-profit LLC ownership, and the numbers tell a mixed story. Nurse staffing sits at 3.42 hours per resident day, roughly 11% under the national average, and weekends dip about 3% below the home's own weekday levels, so coverage is thinnest when families tend to visit. Annual turnover of 57% is well above the 45.8% national figure, meaning a lot of unfamiliar faces. The inspection record carries 26 deficiencies, 8 of them serious enough to involve harm or jeopardy, plus one abuse-related finding and a single fine of $317,977. Quality and staffing each earned 4 stars from CMS, but the last inspection was August 2024.

Plymouth Harbor is a nonprofit home in Sarasota with 56 beds, and its nurse staffing runs about 5.31 hours per resident day, roughly 37% above the national average, which helps explain the solid inspection and quality scores. A recent inspection in March 2025 turned up five deficiencies, none at the harm level, though one was abuse-related, so it's worth asking about directly. The bigger concern is staff turnover: nearly 72% annually versus about 46% nationally, meaning the people caring for residents change often. That churn can undercut even good staffing numbers. Weekend coverage also dips slightly below weekday levels.

The inspection record is the first thing you'd want to know about: 28 deficiencies on file, four of them serious enough to cause harm or jeopardy, and two tied to abuse. CMS gives the health inspection side of this home one star out of five. Staffing is also thin, 3.72 nurse hours per resident day against a national average of 3.86, with weekends running about 9% below weekdays, so your Saturday coverage looks lighter than the weekday schedule suggests. Annual turnover sits at 45.7%, essentially matching the national rate. It's a 45-bed for-profit, last inspected in July 2024. The quality measures come in mid-range at three stars, but that's the part of the record least supported by the rest.

Sarasota Health And Rehabilitation Center runs 144 certified beds as a nonprofit, and its nurse staffing sits around 3.46 hours per resident day, roughly 10% under the national average of 3.86, with weekends dipping about 6% below its own weekday levels. Turnover at 43.4% is slightly better than the 45.8% national figure, so that part isn't the problem. The inspection record is: 23 deficiencies on file, three at harm or jeopardy level and four tied to abuse, plus five fines totaling $230,102, with the last inspection in June 2024. CMS gives it one star for health inspections but four for quality measures and four for staffing, the quality and staffing numbers look stronger than the inspection history, and that gap is what matters here.

Birchwood runs on thinner staffing than most Florida nursing homes: 3.44 nurse hours per resident day against a national average of 3.86, with weekends about 9 percent below its own weekday levels, meaning the thinnest coverage lands when families tend to visit. Turnover sits at 43.8 percent, a touch better than the national 45.8 percent, so aides do stick around slightly longer than average. The bigger concern is the inspection record: 17 deficiencies, one serious enough to reach harm or jeopardy level, and a $49,680 fine. Its last inspection was August 2025, so the record is recent rather than stale. Corporate-owned and for-profit, with 87 beds. Ask about weekend aide coverage and what that harm-level deficiency involved.

North Port Rehabilitation runs 3.42 nurse hours per resident day, which is about 11% under the national average, and weekends drop another 9% below its own weekday staffing. That thin coverage shows up in its CMS staffing rating of 1 out of 5, even as its quality measure score sits at 5 out of 5, a split worth noticing, since strong outcome numbers don't necessarily mean enough hands on the floor. The inspection record is mixed: 33 deficiencies, two tied to abuse, though none at the harm or jeopardy level, and one fine of $14,770. The last inspection was July 2024. A for-profit LLC with a 2 out of 5 on health inspections makes staffing the thing to ask about directly.

The staffing picture at Springs At Lake Pointe Woods is thin: 3.68 nurse hours per resident day against a national average of 3.86, with weekends running about 8% below the home's own weekday level. Turnover sits at 53.9%, well above the 45.8% national figure, that's more than half the nursing staff leaving in a year, which matters for a 101-bed building where residents need consistent caregivers. The inspection record carries 21 deficiencies, three at harm or jeopardy level and three abuse-related, plus six fines totaling $51,671. A five-star quality measure score can reflect good clinical numbers on paper, but it's hard to see how it offsets a one-star inspection rating.
