Good Samaritan - Manson runs 42 beds as a nonprofit, and its strongest number is staffing stability: turnover at 35.7% sits well under the 45.8% national average, which matters in a small rural home where familiar faces do the work. The catch is raw hours, 3.25 nurse hours per resident day is about 16% under the national average, and weekends drop roughly 20% below its own weekday coverage, so care thins out exactly when families tend to visit. Fourteen deficiencies on the current record include one abuse-related citation, though none rose to harm or jeopardy. The last inspection was May 2025. Quality measures score well; the inspection history is the weaker half of the picture.

Quality measure scores are the weak spot at 2 out of 5 stars, which pulls against otherwise solid staffing numbers.
