Berea Health And Rehabilitation

Nurse hours

Staff turnover
55%
Serious cites
0

Berea Health and Rehabilitation runs 84 certified beds under for-profit partnership ownership, and its staffing picture is more fragile than the headline number suggests. Total nurse staffing sits at 3.91 hours per resident day, barely above the national average, but weekends drop about 17% below the home's own weekday levels, and annual turnover hits 55.2% against a national 45.8%. Inspections look better: a 4/5 health inspection rating, most recently surveyed in April 2025, with seven deficiencies on record, two of them serious enough to reach harm or jeopardy level, and $16,801 in fines across two penalties. The gap between decent inspection results and thin, churning staffing is what stands out here.

Liberty Care & Rehabilitation Center runs 97 certified beds under for-profit LLC ownership, and the numbers worth knowing are on the inspection side. Seventeen deficiencies sit on the current record, six of them serious enough to involve harm or jeopardy, plus two tied to abuse. Three fines add up to $65,196. Staffing lands at 3.47 nurse hours per resident day against a national average of 3.86, and weekend coverage drops about 16% below the home's own weekday level. Annual turnover of 55.8% runs well above the 45.8% national figure. The quality measure score looks strong, but quality measures rely on self-reported data, the inspection history and the thin weekend staffing are the parts a family can't argue with.

Florence Park Care Center runs 150 beds under corporate ownership, and the numbers on the direct-care side are thin: 3.49 nurse hours per resident day against a national average of 3.86, with weekends dropping roughly 11% below its own weekday staffing. That gap matters because weekends are when families often visit and when residents still need help. Annual turnover sits at 57.4%, well above the 45.8% national figure, so the people providing care keep changing. The current inspection record shows 21 deficiencies, two serious enough to reach harm or jeopardy level. One bright spot: the most recent inspection was January 15, 2026, so the state has looked at this building recently.

Green River Trails runs lean on nursing hours: 3.17 per resident day against a national average of 3.86, and weekends drop roughly 15% below its own weekday staffing. That thin coverage is the main thing behind its middling scores on staffing and quality measures, even though the health inspection side came back strong at 4 out of 5. Turnover sits at 40.2%, a bit better than the 45.8% national figure, and the home carries eight deficiencies with none at the harm level and none abuse-related. Two fines total $12,645, and the last inspection was June 5, 2025. It's a for-profit corporation operating 118 certified beds.

Valhalla Post Acute runs 162 beds in Louisville under for-profit LLC ownership, and the direct-care hours don't quite keep up: 3.73 per resident day against a national average of 3.86, with weekends roughly 12% thinner than weekdays. The bigger signal is churn, 69.8% annual staff turnover, well above the 45.8% national figure, which makes consistent care hard to sustain no matter how the schedule looks on paper. Inspectors have logged 17 deficiencies, four at harm or jeopardy level and one abuse-related, with two fines totaling $17,963 and a survey as recent as March 2026. Resident outcome measures score well; the staffing and inspection records are what pull the overall picture down.

Staff turnover
n/a
Serious cites
0

River Oaks sits at 3.88 total nurse hours per resident day, which is technically above the national average of 3.86, a difference small enough to call even. The problem is how those hours land: weekends run about 9% thinner than weekdays, so the coverage your family sees on a Tuesday isn't what shows up on a Sunday. Federal inspectors have cited 16 deficiencies on the current record, including one abuse-related finding, though none rose to the harm or jeopardy level. The last inspection was July 2025, so the record is recent. A single fine of $6,380 is on file. For a 122-bed for-profit LLC, the staffing pattern and citation history are the things worth asking about directly.

Nurse hours

Serious cites

Madisonville Health and Rehabilitation runs 94 certified beds as a for-profit corporation, and its staffing sits around 3.09 nurse hours per resident day, roughly 20% under the national average of 3.86. Weekends drop about 10% below the home's own weekday coverage, so the thinnest shifts are the ones families often visit. Annual turnover is 48.7%, a bit above the 45.8% national figure, which means caregivers cycle through faster than average. The current record shows 8 deficiencies, none at harm or jeopardy level and none abuse-related, and the last inspection was May 1, 2025, so the picture is fairly recent. Federal ratings land at 3 out of 5 for inspections and 2 out of 5 each for quality measures and staffing.

Fulton Nursing and Rehabilitation runs on 2.82 nurse hours per resident per day, roughly 27% under the national average of 3.86, and weekends drop about 14% below what the home staffs on weekdays. That thin coverage shows up in its staffing rating, which sits at the bottom of CMS's five-point scale, while its quality measure rating lands at two stars. Turnover is 45.9%, essentially identical to the national figure, so this isn't a retention crisis, it's a coverage problem. Nine deficiencies sit on the current record with none at harm or jeopardy level and none abuse-related, and the most recent inspection was in May 2025.

Somerset Nursing and Rehabilitation runs 123 certified beds under for-profit LLC ownership, and its staffing sits at 3.73 nurse hours per resident day, a bit under the national average of 3.86. That gap is small, but weekends drop about 11% below the home's own weekday coverage, and CMS gave staffing a single star. Turnover is 45.7%, essentially identical to the national figure, so that's not the differentiator here. The inspection record is: 19 deficiencies, four of them at harm or jeopardy level, three tied to abuse, with the last inspection in June 2025. Two-star marks on health inspections and quality measures round it out. Families weighing this one should ask directly about weekend nurse coverage and how the abuse-related findings were resolved.

The nurse staffing number at Mt. Sterling Health & Rehab, 3.85 hours per resident day, lands almost exactly on the national average. That's about where the good news ends. Staff turnover runs 50%, well above the typical 45.8%, and weekend coverage drops about 8% below what the home staffs on weekdays, so the hours that look adequate on paper thin out when families are most likely to visit. The health inspection record shows a 1-out-of-5 star rating with 26 deficiencies, including one at the harm level and two tied to abuse. One fine totaling $13,520 is on file. The most recent inspection, in March 2026, is current, but the findings behind it aren't reassuring.

Green Acres Healthcare

Mayfield, KY · Graves County

Staff turnover

0

Green Acres runs lean on nursing hours, 3.25 per resident day against a national average of 3.86, and weekends dip about 15% below what the home itself staffs during the week. That thinner weekend coverage matters most when families visit and when residents need help. Annual turnover sits at 51.5%, above the 45.8% national figure, so many of the aides and nurses you meet may be relatively new. The good news: 11 deficiencies on the current record, none involving harm or abuse, and the last inspection was recent, in August 2025. It's a for-profit limited liability company with 60 beds, so ask who owns it now and how long the director of nursing has been there.

Sycamore Heights runs 96 beds in Louisville under for-profit LLC ownership, and the numbers that stand out most are on the staffing side. At 3.25 nurse hours per resident day, it sits roughly 16% under the national average, and weekends dip about 12% below its own weekday levels, so coverage is thinnest exactly when families tend to visit. Annual turnover of 60.7% is well above the 45.8% national figure, which means the people caring for your relative are likely to change often. Its inspection record shows 23 deficiencies, four serious enough to involve harm or jeopardy, plus two fines totaling $21,879. The most recent inspection was February 2026, so that record is current.

Countryside Center runs a 53-bed for-profit operation in Carlisle County, and its staffing is the first thing to look at. Nurses provide 3.16 hours per resident per day, roughly 18% under the national average, and weekends drop about 13% below its own weekday numbers. Turnover sits at 46.8%, a touch above the national figure. On the plus side, the health inspection record is strong, four stars, eight deficiencies with none at harm or jeopardy level and no abuse findings, last inspected in February 2026. Quality measures and staffing both score two stars, which tells you where the tradeoffs land: a clean inspection history paired with thin day-to-day coverage.

Lexington Premier runs 120 certified beds under for-profit LLC ownership, and the staffing numbers tell you a lot. At 3.54 nurse hours per resident day, it sits about 8% under the national average of 3.86, and weekends dip roughly 5% below its own weekdays, so coverage thins out exactly when families tend to visit. Turnover is 53.2% against a national 45.8%, meaning more than half the nursing staff leaves each year. The current record shows 42 deficiencies, seven of them serious enough to involve harm or jeopardy, plus one abuse-related citation and a $240,331 fine. Last inspection: August 2025.

Good Shepherd Health And Rehabilitation runs 118 certified beds in Phelps under corporate for-profit ownership, and the numbers worth your attention are the inspection record and the staffing. Fourteen deficiencies sit on the current record, six of them serious enough to reach harm or jeopardy level, and one tied to abuse, with four fines totaling $29,852. Nurse staffing comes in at 3.42 hours per resident day, roughly 11 percent under the national average, and weekend coverage holds flat against weekdays rather than dropping. Turnover at 39.6 percent is actually better than the 45.8 percent national figure, which suggests some steadiness in the workforce even as oversight problems persist. The last inspection was September 2024, so the record is fairly current.

The Village of Lebanon runs 54 beds under for-profit partnership ownership, and its payroll sits almost exactly at the national norm, 45.6% turnover against 45.8% nationally, so the staffing churn here isn't unusually bad for the industry. What stands out more is the quality measure rating of 1 out of 5, which is where the clinical picture looks weakest, and 12 deficiencies on the current record including one tied to abuse. Inspectors were last on site in August 2025 and found nothing at the harm or jeopardy level, which matters. Eight fines totaling $45,335 is real money, though not extreme for a home this size.

Park Grove is a for-profit limited liability operation in Madisonville with 71 certified beds, and its numbers land below average on nearly every federal measure. Nurse staffing sits at 3.64 hours per resident day, roughly 6% under the national figure, and weekends run about 15% thinner than weekdays, a gap families often feel when they visit on a Saturday. Turnover is 46%, basically at the national rate, so continuity isn't the standout problem here. The inspection record is: 16 deficiencies on file, two serious enough to involve harm or jeopardy, and $12,860 in fines across two penalties. Its most recent inspection was in June 2025, so the picture is current. All three CMS star ratings, health inspections, quality measures, and staffing, sit at 2 out of 5.

Oakview runs about 3.47 nurse hours per resident per day, roughly 10% under the national average, and weekends dip about 14% below its own weekday staffing. That thinner weekend coverage matters most when families visit and when residents need help at meals and bedtime. The bigger concern is turnover: 67.7% of nursing staff left over the year, well above the 45.8% national average, which means caregivers are often new and unfamiliar with residents. Inspections in September 2025 turned up 16 deficiencies, two serious enough to put residents at risk of harm, plus $15,646 in fines. State surveyors last visited in late 2025, so the record is current. Limited liability ownership with for-profit status rounds out the picture.

Hartland Park runs 150 certified beds under for-profit LLC ownership, and the staffing numbers tell you most of what you need to know. Nurses provide 3.44 hours per resident day, roughly 11% below the national average of 3.86, and weekends dip another 10% below the home's own weekday levels, so coverage thins out exactly when families tend to visit. Turnover sits at 46.2%, essentially matching the national rate, which means this isn't a retention crisis so much as a staffing floor that never gets high enough. The inspection record is the harder read: 33 deficiencies, two at harm or jeopardy level, one abuse-related, and two fines totaling $12,925, with the most recent inspection in June 2025.

Franklin-Simpson runs on 3.06 nurse hours per resident day, about a fifth below the national figure of 3.86, and weekends drop roughly 14% under its own weekday level, so the thinnest coverage lands when families tend to visit. Staff turnover sits at 50.6%, higher than the 45.8% national average, and the federal staffing rating reflects that at 1 out of 5. The inspection history is the counterweight: a 4-out-of-5 health inspection rating, though the current record still carries 15 deficiencies, two at harm or jeopardy level and two tied to abuse. It's a for-profit LLC, 98 beds, last inspected July 2025. Quality measures rate 2 out of 5.
