Nursing homes across Cowley County, Kansas, graded on the federal inspection
record, nurse staffing and staff turnover. County rank is shown on each home's profile.
Cumbernauld Village runs on 5.81 nurse hours per resident day, roughly half again the national figure of 3.86, and weekends dip only about 15% below its own weekday coverage, smaller than what many homes show. The nonprofit's 42.6% turnover sits slightly under the 45.8% national rate, and its last inspection, in April 2026, produced 10 deficiencies with none at harm or jeopardy level, though one is abuse-related. A five-star health inspection and five-star staffing rating carry the record; the three-star quality measure rating and that abuse citation are the parts worth asking about directly before you decide.
Arkansas City Presbyterian Manor runs on a nonprofit model with 60 certified beds, and the staffing numbers tell a steady story: 4.05 nurse hours per resident day, roughly 5% above the national average. Weekend coverage dips about 11% below its own weekday level, which is common but worth knowing if you're planning visits. Annual turnover sits at 26.8%, well under the national 45.8%, so the people caring for residents tend to stay. The current record shows seven deficiencies, none at the harm level and none abuse-related, with an inspection as recent as August 2025.
Kansas Veterans Home in Winfield runs on unusually heavy staffing for a nursing home, 6.08 nurse hours per resident day against a national average of 3.86. That's roughly 58 percent more hands-on time, and it holds up on weekends better than most places, dipping about 14 percent instead of the steeper drops common elsewhere. State-run ownership shows in the numbers: 35.9 percent annual turnover beats the 45.8 percent national figure, and the current record carries 10 deficiencies, none at the harm level and none abuse-related. The tradeoff sits in the quality measures, which score low relative to inspections and staffing. Worth asking what specifically drives that before you decide.
Winfield Rest Haven II runs 41 certified beds as a nonprofit, and its last health inspection in December 2024 came back strong at four stars. The catch is in the daily numbers: total nurse staffing sits at 3.81 hours per resident day, a hair under the national average, and weekends run about 10% thinner than weekdays, so the coverage your family member gets on a Saturday isn't what they'd get on a Tuesday. Staff turnover at 44.4% is roughly average. Eleven deficiencies sit on the current record, one serious enough to involve harm or jeopardy, though none tied to abuse. The quality measure score, at two stars, is where this home looks weakest.
Winfield Senior Living runs 55 certified beds under corporate ownership, and its nurse staffing sits at 3.73 hours per resident day, roughly 4% under the national average. Weekends dip about 8% below its own weekday coverage, so the thinnest shifts land when families are most likely to visit. Turnover is 45.2%, essentially matching the national rate, so that's not the problem here. The real issue is the inspection record: 23 deficiencies, one serious enough to reach harm or jeopardy level, with the most recent state visit in February 2025. No abuse citations appear. Quality and staffing measures both land mid-range, but a recent inspection with a harm-level finding is the number worth asking about directly.
Medicalodges Arkansas City runs 45 certified beds under corporate for-profit ownership, and its nurse staffing sits at 3.90 hours per resident day, barely a whisker above the national average of 3.86. That thin margin matters more when you look at weekends, which run about 13% leaner than weekdays, and at a turnover rate of 73.5% against a national figure of 45.8%. The inspection record is where the real trouble sits: 35 deficiencies on file, five of them serious enough to involve harm or jeopardy, six tied to abuse, plus three fines totaling $72,592. State inspectors last walked through in June 2025 and rated the health inspection side 1 out of 5.
