All 5 Medicare-certified nursing homes in Belleville,
side by side on the things that separate them: how many nursing hours each resident gets, how much of the
staff leaves each year, and what inspectors found on their last visit.
Memorial Care Center runs on a nonprofit model with 82 certified beds, and the staffing numbers are the first thing worth noticing: 5.31 nurse hours per resident day, roughly 37% above the national average. That's a real cushion, and it shows up in the four-out-of-five staffing star. Weekend coverage dips about 11% below weekday levels, which isn't unusual but is worth asking about. Turnover sits at 49.5%, slightly above the national 45.8%. The inspection record is clean, four deficiencies total, none at harm or jeopardy level, none abuse-related, and the most recent inspection was in March 2026. Quality measures came in at three stars, the softest spot in the profile.
Bria Of Belleville runs 140 certified beds as a for-profit corporation, and its nurse staffing comes in at 4.27 hours per resident day, roughly 11% above the national average of 3.86. But that headline number hides a gap: weekend staffing drops about 20% below the home's own weekday level, and annual turnover sits at 53.4% against a national 45.8%, so the people providing that care are cycling out faster than average.
The inspection record is where the real weight sits. Sixty-six deficiencies are on file, thirteen of them at the harm or jeopardy level and eight abuse-related, with eight fines totaling $375,242. The last inspection was May 2025, and the health inspection rating is 1 out of 5.
Helia Southbelt Healthcare runs 156 certified beds in Belleville under individual for-profit ownership, and the numbers behind its record are hard to read any other way. Nurse staffing sits at 3.14 hours per resident per day, roughly 19% under the national average, with weekends about 3% thinner than weekdays, so coverage is stretched before you even get to the harder measures. Inspectors have cited 65 deficiencies, including 6 at harm or jeopardy level and 7 tied to abuse, and the fines total $240,982. Staff turnover of 37.8% is actually below the national figure, which may be the one bright spot; the last inspection was in September 2025.
St. Paul's Senior Community runs about 3.68 nurse hours per resident day, roughly 5% under the national average, and weekends drop another 10% below its own weekday numbers. That thin coverage shows up in the staffing rating, which sits at the bottom of CMS's scale, and in turnover: 60.8% of staff leave each year, well above the 45.8% national figure. The inspection record is heavier still, 39 deficiencies, 10 of them at harm or jeopardy level, one tied to abuse, and five fines totaling $227,658. Ownership is for-profit through a limited liability company. The last inspection was in January 2025, so the record is current, not stale.
Nexus Pavilion At Belleville runs 180 beds under for-profit LLC ownership, and the numbers behind its record are hard to dress up. Nurse staffing sits at 3.24 hours per resident day against a national average of 3.86, weekend coverage drops about 15% below its own weekday level, and annual turnover hits 70.4%, well above the 45.8% national figure. That thin, churning workforce shows up in the inspection record: 75 deficiencies, 25 at harm or jeopardy level, 17 abuse-related, and seven fines totaling $821,641. CMS has placed it in the Special Focus Facility program, reserved for the poorest performers. Its last inspection was March 14, 2025.
