Nursing homes across Johnson County, Kansas, graded on the federal inspection
record, nurse staffing and staff turnover. County rank is shown on each home's profile.
The Healthcare Resort of Leawood runs a for-profit operation with 70 certified beds, and its nurse staffing sits at 4.05 hours per resident day, about 5% above the national average. But weekend coverage drops roughly 7% below its own weekday levels, so care thins out when families tend to visit. The bigger concern is the inspection record: 36 deficiencies on file, one serious enough to reach harm or jeopardy level, plus a $19,105 fine. A 2/5 inspection rating against 4/5 marks for both quality measures and staffing tells you the clinical numbers look better than the survey history. The most recent inspection was August 2025, so that record is current, not stale.
Delmar Gardens of Overland Park runs 120 certified beds under for-profit LLC ownership, and its 3.43 nurse staffing hours per resident day sit about 11% under the national average of 3.86, a gap that widens on weekends, when coverage drops roughly 10% below its own weekday level. The inspection record shows 49 deficiencies, none flagged at harm or jeopardy level, though one is abuse-related, and four fines totaling $23,261. Staff turnover at 38% is actually better than the 45.8% national figure, and the most recent inspection came in January 2026, so the picture is fairly current.
The Village At Mission runs 4.00 nurse hours per resident day, a bit above the national average of 3.86, though weekends come in about 10% lighter than weekdays. Turnover sits at 51.2% against a national 45.8%, and the health inspection side is the weak spot here: a 2/5 star rating, 33 deficiencies on the current record, one at harm or jeopardy level, and a $22,925 fine. Quality measures score 4/5, so the clinical picture looks better than the inspection history. This is a for-profit LLC with 58 beds, last inspected October 2023, and the staffing edge is modest enough that the inspection findings carry real weight.
Shawnee Post Acute runs 101 certified beds under for-profit LLC ownership, and its nurse staffing sits at 4.11 hours per resident day, roughly 6% above the national average of 3.86. That headline number looks fine until you notice weekends run about 12% leaner than weekdays, which is when families tend to visit and when problems often surface.
The inspection record is the real story here. Forty-four deficiencies on the current record, including two at the harm or jeopardy level and two tied to abuse. One fine totaling $28,558. The last inspection was February 2026, and CMS gave the health inspection domain 2 out of 5 stars, against 4 for quality measures and 3 for staffing. Ask about those abuse-related citations directly before you decide anything.
Ignite Medical Resort Overland Park runs 102 certified beds under nonprofit corporate ownership, and its staffing sits at 3.66 nurse hours per resident day, about 5% under the national average of 3.86. Weekends dip roughly 4% below its own weekday coverage, and annual turnover hits 53.5% against a national 45.8%, so the people on shift change often and thin out when families tend to visit. The inspection record shows 36 deficiencies, including 2 at harm or jeopardy level and 2 tied to abuse, with one fine of $6,942 and a last survey dated July 2024. Quality measures score well; staffing and health inspections do not.
Stratford Commons runs 60 beds in Overland Park, and the nurse staffing number looks fine at first glance, 4.10 hours per resident day, a bit above the national average. The problem is who's still there and when. Weekend coverage drops about 14% below its own weekday levels, so the hours aren't spread evenly across the week. And 63.8% of staff turned over in a year against a national average near 46%, which means the people delivering that care are often new and still learning the building. State inspectors cited 45 deficiencies, including one involving harm and one abuse-related, with a $24,845 fine. Ownership is for-profit corporate.
Overland Park Post Acute runs 140 beds under for-profit LLC ownership, and its nurse staffing sits at 2.92 hours per resident day, roughly a quarter below the national average of 3.86. Weekends drop about 14% below its own weekday levels, so coverage thins exactly when families tend to visit. Staff turnover is 51.3%, higher than the 45.8% national figure, which means the people caring for residents are often new to the building. The inspection record is the harder read: 59 deficiencies, three at harm or jeopardy level, two tied to abuse, and $59,683 in fines. The most recent inspection was September 11, 2024.
Garden Terrace runs a 163-bed for-profit operation where the day-to-day staffing looks decent on paper, 4.05 nurse hours per resident, a bit above the national average, with turnover at 41.7% compared to 45.8% nationally. But weekends drop about 7% below the home's own weekday coverage, and the inspection record is where the picture turns: 49 deficiencies on file, five of them serious enough to put residents in harm's way, three tied to abuse, and six fines totaling $104,116. The last inspection was May 2025, so this isn't stale history. Good staffing numbers and a clean quality measure score can coexist with real problems, and here they do, the state has cited this building repeatedly at the level that matters most.
Aspen Health And Wellness runs 102 certified beds in Overland Park under corporate for-profit ownership, and its inspection record is the part that stands out. CMS has cited 55 deficiencies on the current record, including three at the harm or jeopardy level and one abuse-related, with 18 fines totaling $114,489 and a one-star health inspection rating from the most recent survey on June 26, 2025. Staffing sits at 3.66 nurse hours per resident day, about 5% under the national average, and weekends run roughly 15% below the home's own weekday coverage. Turnover is 55.6% against a national 45.8%, meaning more than half the nursing staff leaves each year, worth asking about directly if you're considering this one.
Azria Health Olathe runs 125 certified beds as a for-profit corporation, and its nurse staffing comes in at 4.12 hours per resident day, roughly 7% above the national average. But weekends drop about 6% below its own weekday level, and annual turnover sits at 51.4%, higher than the 45.8% national figure. The inspection record is where it gets harder to defend: 45 deficiencies, including two at the harm or jeopardy level and two abuse-related, with three fines totaling $70,947. Its most recent inspection was September 2025. CMS gives it one star for health inspections, two for quality measures, and two for staffing. Plenty of hands on weekdays, but a troubled survey history and unstable workforce are the real story.
Meadowbrook Rehabilitation Hospital in Gardner runs 42 beds under for-profit LLC ownership, and the numbers worth your attention are on the inspection side. The current record shows 47 deficiencies, including 2 at the harm or jeopardy level and 5 tied to abuse, and CMS gave the home a 1 out of 5 on health inspections. Three fines totaling $98,974 have been levied. Staffing sits at 3.73 nurse hours per resident day, a bit under the national average, with weekends running roughly 10% lighter than weekdays, and turnover at 51.1% against a national 45.8%. Quality measures rate better than the inspection record does, but that gap itself tells you something.
Spring Hill Care and Rehab runs 45 beds under for-profit LLC ownership, and the numbers worth knowing are the staffing ones. Nurse coverage sits at 3.40 hours per resident day, roughly 12 percent under the national average, and weekends drop about 4 percent below what the home staffs on weekdays, so the thinnest coverage lands when families tend to visit. Staff turnover is the harder fact: 80 percent a year against a national average near 46 percent, meaning most of the people caring for residents are new to the building. Inspections in June 2025 turned up 36 deficiencies, including one at the harm level and four tied to abuse, with a $21,645 fine on record.
Merriam Gardens runs on 3.01 nurse staffing hours per resident day, roughly 22 percent under the national average of 3.86, and weekends dip another 8 percent below its own weekday level, so the thinnest coverage lands when families tend to visit. Staff turnover sits at 50 percent against a national 45.8 percent. The 36 deficiencies on record include nothing flagged at harm or jeopardy level and no abuse citations, which matters, but ten fines totaling $74,562 and a two-star inspection rating suggest the problems are persistent rather than isolated. The last inspection was October 2024, so the record is reasonably current. For-profit, limited liability ownership. Ask about weekday-to-weekend staffing patterns and how they hold onto aides.
Swan Health At Overland Park runs 44 certified beds under for-profit LLC ownership, and the staffing picture is more complicated than the headline number. Total nurse staffing sits at 4.42 hours per resident day, roughly 15% above the national average, but weekends drop about 9% below the home's own weekday level, and annual turnover hits 66.7% against a national average of 45.8%. The inspection record carries 30 deficiencies, including two at the harm or jeopardy level and four tied to abuse, with three fines totaling $82,592 and a May 2025 inspection that produced a 2-star health inspection rating. High turnover and serious deficiency findings tend to matter more than raw staffing averages.
Shawnee Gardens runs 3.68 nurse hours per resident day, about 5% under the national average, and weekends dip roughly 7% below its own weekday numbers. The bigger flag is turnover: 74.2% of staff leaving annually against a national rate near 46% means the people caring for residents are constantly new. Its inspection record shows 57 deficiencies, including 6 at harm or jeopardy level and 5 tied to abuse, with four fines totaling $80,905 and a one-star health inspection rating. The last inspection was September 2024. A for-profit corporation owns the 130-bed home, and quality measures sit at three stars while staffing holds at two.
