East Jefferson General Hospital's skilled nursing unit runs on 7.66 nurse hours per resident day, roughly double the national figure, and its staff turnover of 20.5% is less than half the national rate, a combination that usually shows up as consistent caregivers who know the residents. The tradeoff is weekends, when hours drop about a fifth below the unit's own weekday level. Six deficiencies sit on the current record, none involving harm or abuse, and the last inspection was February 2026. Quality measures score midrange against a five-star inspection and staffing picture, which fits a hospital-based nonprofit unit that's strong on people and watchful on weekends.

Old Brownlee runs on 4.78 nurse hours per resident day, about a quarter more staffing than the typical American nursing home. That cushion matters less on weekends, when hours drop roughly 18% below the weekday pace, worth asking about if your family visits then. Staff turnover sits at 39.8%, better than the 45.8% national figure but still meaning four in ten caregivers left within a year. The record shows eight deficiencies, none causing harm, though two involve abuse, which you should ask about directly. A July 2025 inspection and 4s and 5s across the federal star ratings round out a nonprofit home performing above average.

Baton Rouge General Medical Center's skilled nursing unit runs on 5.89 nurse hours per resident per day, roughly 53% more than the national average of 3.86, and it holds that pace on weekends, dropping only about 1% below weekday levels. That consistency matters, because weekend coverage is where a lot of homes quietly thin out. The inspection record is clean where it counts: 7 deficiencies on file, none at the harm or jeopardy level and none abuse-related, with a 5/5 health inspection rating and the most recent survey dated April 2026. As a nonprofit corporation, it isn't answering to shareholders. Two certified beds means this is a small unit inside a hospital, so ask how that arrangement works if you need long-term placement rather than a short rehab stay.

LaSalle Nursing Home runs on a hospital district's budget in Jena, and the numbers behind it are mostly steady. Nurse staffing sits at 4.60 hours per resident day, roughly 19% above the national average, and weekend coverage only dips about 13% below its own weekday level, a gap that's real but not dramatic. Turnover is the standout: 23.6% against a national average near 46%, meaning the people caring for residents tend to stay. The tradeoffs show up elsewhere. Inspectors found seven deficiencies on the current record, one serious enough to reach harm or jeopardy level, though none tied to abuse, and the home carries a single fine of $7,443. Its last inspection was in December 2025, so the picture is recent. Quality measure scores land in the middle at 3 out of 5, which is where the overall grade loses ground.

Christwood runs a small 30-bed nonprofit home in Covington, and the staffing picture is the strongest part of it: 4.70 nurse hours per resident day, about 22% above the national average, with weekend coverage dipping roughly 12% below its own weekday level. Turnover sits at 35.7%, notably under the 45.8% national figure, which matters for consistency of care. Inspections are recent, from late January 2026, and the record shows 8 deficiencies with none at the harm or jeopardy level and nothing abuse-related. The quality measure score is the softer spot at 3 out of 5, so ask what specific measures are pulling that down.

Ochsner Medical Center Skilled Nursing Facility runs a 30-bed nonprofit unit in Jefferson, and the numbers split in two directions. Nurse staffing sits at 6.83 hours per resident day, roughly 77% above the national average, and the staff turnover rate of 25.6% is nearly half the national figure, so the people caring for residents tend to stay. That consistency shows up in the inspection record too: a five-star health inspection rating and only six deficiencies, none tied to abuse, though one did rise to the harm level and drew an $8,186 fine. Where it slips is quality measures, which land at two stars. The most recent inspection was in March 2026.

John J Hainkel Jr Home runs on 4.40 nurse hours per resident day, roughly 14% above the national average, and it shows in the federal staffing rating. Weekend coverage dips about 14% below the home's own weekday level, a pattern worth asking about if your family visits on Saturdays and Sundays. The nonprofit's staff turnover sits at 37.6%, better than the 45.8% national figure, which matters because consistent caregivers tend to know residents' routines. Six deficiencies appear on the current record, none at harm or jeopardy level, though one is abuse-related and worth reading in full. The last inspection was April 2026.

Greenbriar runs on 4.39 nurse hours per resident day, roughly 14% above the national average, and its staff turnover of 35.6% sits well below the 45.8% national figure, that combination tends to mean caregivers who stay long enough to know the residents. Weekend staffing drops about 17% from weekday levels, so ask how that plays out on Saturdays and Sundays. The inspection record shows 16 deficiencies, none at the harm or jeopardy level, though one is abuse-related and worth asking about directly. A 5/5 inspection rating with a clean harm record and a recent October 2025 survey is a solid position. Nonprofit ownership rounds it out.

Ridgecrest Community Care Center runs a 112-bed nonprofit operation in West Monroe, and its nurse staffing sits at 4.32 hours per resident day, roughly 12% above the national average. Weekend coverage dips about 17% below its own weekday level, so families should ask how that gap gets handled. Staff turnover is 38.7%, better than the 45.8% national figure but still meaning nearly two in five caregivers left within a year. The current record shows 16 deficiencies, none at harm or jeopardy level, one abuse-related, and the last inspection was April 2025. All three CMS star ratings, health inspections, quality measures, and staffing, come in at 4 out of 5.

Magnolia Manor runs 98 certified beds in Shreveport under for-profit LLC ownership, and its nurse staffing sits at 3.57 hours per resident day, roughly 8% under the national average of 3.86. Weekends get thinner still, about 12% below the home's own weekday coverage, so families should ask who's actually on the floor on a Saturday. Turnover is the one number that stands out favorably: 29.6% against a national average of 45.8%, meaning the aides and nurses here tend to stay. The inspection record is the concern, 13 deficiencies, three at harm or jeopardy level and three abuse-related, with $36,566 in fines across three penalties and a survey completed March 4, 2026.

The Southwest Louisiana War Veterans Home in Jennings is a state-run home with just 8 certified beds, which is a fraction of the size of a typical nursing facility. Inspections are a clear strength: zero deficiencies at the harm or jeopardy level and none related to abuse, with a perfect health inspection rating and a fresh survey from June 2026. Staffing is the weak point, the lowest possible rating, meaning hours per resident fall well below what CMS expects. A state government owner and a spotless inspection record give families real reassurance, but with only eight beds, ask directly how many aides are actually on the floor overnight.

Ponchatoula Community Care Center runs a nonprofit home of 140 beds, and the staffing picture is genuinely better than most: 4.18 nurse hours per resident day against a national average of 3.86. Turnover sits at 35.2%, well below the 45.8% national figure, which matters because stable aides know the residents. The two five-star inspection and quality ratings back that up, and its most recent inspection was August 2025. Two things keep it from the top tier. Weekend staffing drops about 18% below weekday levels, so care thins out when families visit. And while none of the 10 deficiencies on record reached harm or jeopardy, two are abuse-related, a category worth asking about directly.

Prairie Manor runs a nonprofit operation in Pine Prairie with 100 certified beds, and the staffing numbers are the first thing worth noticing. At 4.77 nurse hours per resident day, it sits about 24% above the national average of 3.86, and weekend coverage only dips around 18% below its own weekday level, a modest drop next to what many homes show. Turnover comes in at 30.6% against a national 45.8%, which suggests people stick around here more than they do elsewhere. The tradeoff shows up in the quality measures, where a 2-star score sits well below the 5-star inspection result, despite seven deficiencies on record and none involving harm or abuse.

Lagniappe Healthcare runs a 112-bed for-profit home in Bastrop, and the staffing numbers are its strongest card. Nurses deliver 4.12 hours per resident per day, about 7% above the national average, and turnover sits at 37%, better than the 45.8% typical elsewhere, meaning caregivers tend to stick around. Weekends thin out roughly 13% below weekday coverage, so ask how that plays out on a Sunday. The inspection record shows 13 deficiencies, none at the harm or jeopardy level, though one is abuse-related and worth asking about directly. A February 2026 inspection is recent, and the 4-star health inspection rating reflects that.

Riviere De Soleil runs 4.54 nurse hours per resident per day, about 18% above the national average, and that staffing shows up in its four-star staffing and quality ratings. Turnover sits at 44.3%, slightly better than the national 45.8%, though weekend coverage drops roughly 15% below its own weekday level, worth asking about if your family visits Saturdays or Sundays. The record isn't clean: 24 deficiencies, including one at the harm level and one abuse-related, with a three-star inspection rating. That mix of strong daily staffing and a serious citation on file is what a B grade reflects here.

Garden Park runs a 160-bed for-profit operation in Shreveport, and its nurse staffing sits at 3.79 hours per resident day, a hair under the national average of 3.86. Weekend coverage drops roughly 13% below what the home staffs on weekdays, which is worth asking about if your family visits or calls on Saturdays and Sundays. Turnover is the bright spot: 30.9% annually against a national 45.8%, meaning caregivers here tend to stick around longer than the typical home. The inspection record shows 15 deficiencies, two tied to abuse, though none rose to actual harm or jeopardy. A September 2025 inspection keeps the record current.

Mansfield Nursing Center runs on 4.07 total nurse hours per resident per day, roughly 5% above the national average, and its staff turnover of 33.3% sits well below the 45.8% national figure, both good signs for consistency of care. The catch is weekends, when staffing drops about 14% below the home's own weekday level, so coverage is thinner exactly when families tend to visit. Inspections in August 2025 turned up 15 deficiencies, none rising to harm or jeopardy, though one was abuse-related and worth asking about directly. This is a for-profit LLC with 100 certified beds, and its most recent federal inspection is on the current record.

Desoto Retirement & Rehab runs 135 certified beds in Mansfield under for-profit LLC ownership, and its staffing is the strongest card it holds: 4.40 nurse hours per resident day, roughly 14% above the national average, with a 27.3% turnover rate that's well below the 45.8% national figure, a relatively stable crew. Weekends dip about 12% below weekday coverage, which is typical but worth watching. The weaker side shows in two 2/5 ratings, for health inspections and quality measures, on a record of 15 deficiencies, including 2 tied to abuse. None rose to harm or jeopardy level, and the most recent inspection was February 2025.

Trinity Trace runs on more nursing hours than most homes nationally, 4.19 per resident day against an average of 3.86, and weekends dip about 20% below its own weekday coverage, so families should ask who's actually on the floor Saturday and Sunday. The inspection record is clean where it matters: 12 deficiencies, none causing harm or jeopardy, none tied to abuse, and a survey as recent as December 2025. Turnover sits at 51.3%, above the 45.8% national figure, which is worth asking about directly. As a nonprofit with 116 beds, it isn't chasing margin, but steady leadership and weekend consistency are the open questions here.

St. Agnes runs 128 certified beds in Breaux Bridge under corporate for-profit ownership, and the staffing picture is mixed. Total nurse coverage sits at 3.92 hours per resident day, just above the national average of 3.86, but weekends drop roughly 20% below the facility's own weekday levels, and annual turnover is 54% against a national 45.8%. CMS rates staffing 2 out of 5 stars, while quality measures earn 4. The current record shows 22 deficiencies, none at harm or jeopardy level, though three involve abuse. The last inspection was March 26, 2025. Read together, the quality scores look better than the staffing stability behind them.
