Nursing homes across Clinton County, Illinois, graded on the federal inspection
record, nurse staffing and staff turnover. County rank is shown on each home's profile.
Clinton Manor Living Center runs 37 certified beds in New Baden under corporate for-profit ownership, and its nurse staffing sits at 7.54 hours per resident day, roughly double the national average of 3.86. Weekend coverage dips about 15% below its own weekday levels, so ask how that plays out on a Sunday. Staff turnover is 31.4%, better than the 45.8% national figure, which suggests people tend to stay. The tradeoff shows up in its record: eight deficiencies, including one at the harm level and two tied to abuse, alongside a five-star inspection rating from a September 2024 visit. Strong staffing and a clean recent survey don't erase those older findings.
Aviston Countryside Manor runs on 2.87 nursing hours per resident per day, roughly a quarter below the national average, and weekend coverage drops further from there. Staff turnover sits at 52.9%, well above the national figure, which means the people caring for residents are often new to the building. The current record shows 16 deficiencies, including one at the harm level and two tied to abuse; the last inspection was June 2024. Ownership is for-profit corporate, and CMS rates staffing and health inspections at 2 out of 5 stars each. Quality measures score better at 3, but the staffing and inspection numbers are the ones worth weighing before you decide.
Carlyle Healthcare & Sr Living runs 109 certified beds under for-profit LLC ownership, and the staffing numbers are where I'd start. At 3.21 nurse hours per resident per day, it sits about 17% under the national average of 3.86, and weekends drop roughly 11% below its own weekday levels, so coverage thins out exactly when families tend to visit. Turnover at 42.4% is slightly better than the 45.8% national figure, but that's a small comfort. What concerns me more is the record: 21 deficiencies, four at harm or jeopardy level and four abuse-related, with a 2/5 inspection rating, a 1/5 quality measure rating, and a July 2024 inspection that's now well behind you. Ask about the abuse citations directly.
Evercare Of Breese runs 112 certified beds under a for-profit LLC, and the staffing numbers are the first thing to notice: 2.70 total nurse hours per resident day against a national average of 3.86, roughly 30% below. Weekend coverage drops about another 10% below its own weekday level, so the thinnest shifts get thinner. The inspection record carries 13 deficiencies, 5 of them at harm or jeopardy level, with 5 fines totaling $177,557. Quality measures scored 1 out of 5 stars. The last inspection was January 31, 2025, so the record is recent, not stale. Five harm-level findings and a staffing shortfall that size are the two facts worth weighing hardest.
