Nursing homes across Kosciusko County, Indiana, graded on the federal inspection
record, nurse staffing and staff turnover. County rank is shown on each home's profile.
Miller's Merry Manor in Warsaw runs about 3.98 nurse hours per resident day, a bit above the national average, though weekends drop roughly 12% from weekday coverage, worth asking about if your family visits then. Staff turnover sits at 39.1%, better than the 45.8% national figure, which matters for consistency of care. The 19 deficiencies on record include two tied to abuse, and while none rise to harm or jeopardy level, that combination deserves direct questions about how incidents are handled. Inspections are recent, from April 2025, and the for-profit corporate owner is working from a four-star inspection and quality record against a three-star staffing score.
Paddock Springs runs 60 beds in Warsaw under corporate for-profit ownership, and its last health inspection came in January 2026. The record shows seven deficiencies, one serious enough to cause harm or jeopardy, but nothing abuse-related. Staffing sits at 3.91 nurse hours per resident day, barely above the national figure of 3.86, and weekend coverage dips about 2% below weekdays, enough to notice if your family visits Saturdays. What stands out is retention: turnover is 37.3%, well under the 45.8% national average, which suggests a steadier crew than most. Quality measures score strongly, while the staffing star rating lags at 2 out of 5, so the people there are consistent even if the raw hours aren't generous.
Mason Health Care Center runs on thinner nursing hours than most homes, about 3.13 per resident day against a national average near 3.86, and weekends are staffed roughly 17 percent below its own weekday coverage. Turnover sits at 44.3 percent, close to the national figure, so the concern isn't churn but how few hands are present at any given time.
The inspection record is the harder read: 32 deficiencies on file, three tied to abuse, and the most recent state visit came in August 2025. None of those citations reached the level of actual harm, which matters, but a single-star inspection rating alongside that count suggests problems that keep recurring rather than a one-time lapse.
Grace Village is county-owned, and that shows in the staffing: 4.79 nurse hours per resident day, roughly a quarter above the national average. Weekend coverage dips about 14% below its own weekday level, which is worth asking about if your family tends to visit Saturdays or Sundays. The health inspection record is the strongest part of the picture, eight deficiencies, none at the harm level, none abuse-related, and a survey as recent as March 2025. The softer spots are staff turnover at 61% against a national 45.8%, and a quality measure rating of 2 out of 5, which reflects how residents are actually faring day to day rather than how the building looks on paper.
The Waters of Syracuse runs on thin staffing: 3.33 nurse hours per resident day, about 14% under the national average, and weekends drop roughly 11% below its own weekday levels. Turnover sits at 61.8% against a national 45.8%, so the aides and nurses caring for your relative are likely to change often. The inspection record is the harder problem, 34 deficiencies, two at harm or jeopardy level and one abuse-related, with a 1-out-of-5 health inspection rating. Ownership is for-profit, a limited liability company. Quality measures score well at 4 out of 5, but that reflects resident assessments, not the staffing and safety problems underneath them.
Warsaw Meadows runs 80 certified beds as a for-profit corporation, and the numbers worth knowing sit in its inspection record and its staffing. State inspectors have cited 29 deficiencies, four of them at a level involving actual harm or jeopardy, and five tied to abuse. Fines total $105,073, and the most recent inspection was September 8, 2025.
Nurse staffing comes to 3.35 hours per resident day, roughly 13% under the national average, with weekends about 4% thinner than weekdays. Annual turnover runs 54.7%, against a national 45.8%. CMS rates the health inspection side 1 out of 5, staffing and quality measures 2 out of 5 each.
If you're weighing this one, ask about the abuse citations directly, and ask how the weekend shift is covered.
