Nursing homes across Sangamon County, Illinois, graded on the federal inspection
record, nurse staffing and staff turnover. County rank is shown on each home's profile.
Concordia Village runs a church-affiliated nonprofit home with 62 beds in Springfield, and the staffing is the strongest part of the picture: 4.90 nurse hours per resident day, roughly 27% above the national average of 3.86. Weekend coverage slips about 6% below its own weekday level, so ask how that plays out on Saturdays and Sundays. Turnover sits at 44.7%, essentially matching the national 45.8%. The inspection record shows 13 deficiencies, including two at the harm or jeopardy level and one abuse-related, plus a single fine of $8,678. The last inspection was August 2024. Quality measures land mid-range while staffing rates high, so the direct-care hours look better than the survey history.
Springfield Suites Rehab And Nursing runs 4.94 nurse hours per resident day, roughly 28% above the national average, which sounds like a lot until you see that weekends drop about 19% below the home's own weekday level. Staff turnover sits at 57.1% against a national 45.8%, so the people providing that care are cycling through fast. The current record carries 28 deficiencies, three of them serious enough to put a resident in harm's way, and the last inspection was in December 2025. Ownership is a for-profit LLC. High raw staffing numbers can mask a thin, constantly changing crew, here the schedule gap and turnover suggest that's exactly what's happening.
Avenues At Springfield runs 65 certified beds under for-profit limited liability ownership, and the staffing numbers are where the trouble sits. At 1.58 nurse hours per resident day, it's roughly 59% below the national average of 3.86, with weekends running about 13% lighter than weekdays already short of help. Annual turnover of 59.3% against a 45.8% national average means aides and nurses cycle through fast, which matters most for residents who need consistent hands. The inspection record shows 28 deficiencies, four at harm or jeopardy level and one abuse-related, though the most recent inspection was January 2026. Quality measures score well, but that's largely built from documentation, not from people in the building.
The numbers on Arcadia Care On The Hill point to a home stretched thin. At 251 beds it's a large, for-profit building, and its 2.80 nurse staffing hours per resident day fall roughly 27% under the national average, with weekends running about 7% lighter than weekdays. That shortfall shows in the federal staffing rating and in an inspection record carrying 33 deficiencies, 7 of them at the harm or jeopardy level.
The one encouraging figure is turnover: 29.1%, well below the 45.8% national average, so the people who are there tend to stay. Inspections were current as of September 2025, and fines total $57,030. If you're considering this home, ask directly how the low staffing plays out on nights and weekends.
Villa Health Care East runs 109 beds in Sherman under nonprofit ownership, and its staffing sits right at the national average on paper. The problem is consistency: weekends run roughly 12 percent thinner than weekdays, and 63.6 percent of staff turned over in a year against a national rate near 46 percent, so the people giving care keep changing. Inspectors cited 19 deficiencies on the current record, six of them serious enough to involve harm or jeopardy, with $90,998 in fines and a two-star health inspection rating. Its last inspection was August 2024. Quality measures scored one star, the lowest tier.
Arcadia Care Auburn runs on thinner staffing than most homes its size, 2.77 nurse hours per resident day against a national average of 3.86, and weekends drop about 12% below what it manages during the week. Annual turnover sits at 54.3%, well above the 45.8% national figure, so the people providing that care are cycling through faster than usual. The inspection record backs up the concern: 33 deficiencies, eight of them serious enough to involve harm or jeopardy, two tied to abuse, and four fines totaling $273,034. Its most recent inspection was in February 2025. A 1-out-of-5 staffing rating and a 1-out-of-5 quality measure rating, in a for-profit corporate home, tell you where the trouble concentrates.
Regency Care runs 99 beds in Springfield under for-profit LLC ownership, and the staffing numbers are the first thing to notice: 2.96 nurse hours per resident per day, roughly a quarter below the national average, with weekends dropping another 12% below its own weekday staffing. Turnover sits at 57.3% against a national 45.8%, which means the aides and nurses your family member sees are cycling through constantly. The inspection record backs this up, 38 deficiencies, six at harm or jeopardy level, three tied to abuse, and $210,507 in fines across four events. The most recent inspection was March 2025, so the record is current. CMS rates it 1 out of 5 on both staffing and quality measures.
Nurse staffing at Arc at Sangamon Valley runs about 25% under the national average, 2.91 hours per resident day against 3.86, and weekends dip roughly 8% below what the home itself provides on weekdays. When aides and nurses leave at a 72.6% annual rate, well above the 45.8% national figure, that thin coverage gets harder to hold steady. The inspection record carries 82 deficiencies, 14 of them at harm or jeopardy level and 13 tied to abuse; federal fines total $583,051 across five penalties, and the most recent inspection was September 2024. Nonprofit ownership hasn't translated into stronger numbers here.
