All 3 Medicare-certified nursing homes in Edwardsville,
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.
La Bella Of Edwardsville runs on 2.91 nurse hours per resident day, roughly a quarter below the national average of 3.86, and weekend coverage drops about 13% below its own weekday level. That thin staffing shows in the numbers: 71.7% annual turnover, against 45.8% nationally, and 1 out of 5 stars from CMS on staffing. The inspection record carries 40 deficiencies, eight at harm or jeopardy level and five tied to abuse, with $138,697 in fines across five penalties; the last inspection was May 2024. Ownership is for-profit, a limited liability company. The 4-star quality measure rating reflects resident assessment data, not the hands available to deliver care.
Evercare At University runs on 2.93 nursing hours per resident day, roughly a quarter below the national average of 3.86, and weekend coverage drops further from there. Staff turnover sits at 63.2% against a national 45.8%, so the people caring for residents are constantly changing. The inspection record is heavy: 68 deficiencies, 15 of them serious enough to put residents at risk of harm, 10 tied to abuse, and $398,905 in fines across eight citations. A for-profit corporation operates the 118-bed building, which was last inspected in February 2025.
