Staff turnover
18%
Serious cites
0

Pruitthealth - Grandview runs lean on nursing hours: 3.13 per resident day against a national average of 3.86, and weekends drop roughly 20% below its own weekday coverage. That gap is what pulls its staffing rating down to 2 out of 5, even though inspectors gave it top marks on health inspections and quality measures and its 10 deficiencies include nothing at the harm or abuse level. The counterweight is retention, 18.4% turnover against a national 45.8% means the aides and nurses who are there tend to stay, which matters for consistency of care. For-profit corporate ownership, 72 beds, and a May 2026 inspection round out the picture. Ask how weekend coverage actually looks on the shift you'd visit.

Pruitthealth - Athens Heritage runs 104 certified beds in Clarke County under individual for-profit ownership, and the staffing numbers are the part worth your attention. At 3.43 nurse hours per resident day, it sits about 11% under the national average of 3.86, and weekends drop roughly 19% below its own weekday level, so coverage thins out exactly when families tend to visit. Annual turnover hits 50%, above the 45.8% national figure. The inspection record shows 30 deficiencies, including one at harm or jeopardy level and one abuse-related, with $16,801 in fines across three penalties.

Oaks - Athens Skilled Nursing runs 148 certified beds in Clarke County under corporate for-profit ownership, and its staffing sits at 3.67 nurse hours per resident day, roughly 5% below the national average. Weekends get thinner still, running about 15% under its own weekday levels, which matters most when families visit and needs go unnoticed. The inspection record is where the real concern lives: 14 deficiencies, four of them serious enough to put residents in harm's way, and two tied to abuse. Staff turnover at 41.9% is actually a bit better than the national 45.8%, so the instability here isn't mainly about people leaving, it's about what the building does while they're there. One fine of $15,646 is on record, and the most recent inspection was February 2026.

University Nursing & Rehab Ctr runs on about 2.97 nurse hours per resident per day, roughly a quarter below the national average of 3.86, and weekends drop another 10% below what the home already staffs during the week. That thin coverage shows up in the numbers: 74.1% annual turnover, well above the 45.8% national figure, and a one-star CMS staffing rating. Inspections tell a similar story, 25 deficiencies on the current record, one serious enough to involve harm or jeopardy, and a two-star health inspection rating. The last survey was April 2025. This is a for-profit corporate home where the staffing math, not any single incident, is the main concern.
