Nursing homes across Renville County, Minnesota, graded on the federal inspection
record, nurse staffing and staff turnover. County rank is shown on each home's profile.
Renville Health Services runs 38 certified beds as a nonprofit, and the numbers suggest a well-staffed building. Nurse coverage sits at 3.93 hours per resident day, a bit above the national average, and the 5-star staffing rating reflects that. Just as telling: turnover is 27.8% against a national average near 46%, which means caregivers tend to stay. The 11 deficiencies on record include nothing at the harm or jeopardy level and nothing abuse-related, and the most recent inspection was June 15, 2026. The softer spot is the 2-star quality measure rating, so ask what those specific measures cover. Weekend staffing dips about 8% below weekdays, worth a question if your family visits Saturdays or Sundays.
Buffalo Lake Health Care Center runs on 4.60 nurse hours per resident day, roughly 19% above the national average, a real cushion, though weekends dip about 15% below its own weekday pace. Staff turnover sits at 42.6%, slightly better than the 45.8% national figure. The trade-off shows up in quality measures, which score low, and in a record of 13 deficiencies, including one tied to abuse; none rose to the level of actual harm or jeopardy. Inspectors were last on site in January 2026. This is a nonprofit corporation with 49 certified beds, small enough that staffing depth matters more than at a larger campus.
Franklin Restorative Care Center runs on 3.19 nurse staffing hours per resident day, roughly 17 percent under the national average, and weekends dip about 7 percent below its own weekday level. That thin margin matters more here because turnover sits at 64.8 percent against a national 45.8 percent, so replacements are constantly learning residents who need consistency. The inspection record is where the trouble concentrates: 37 deficiencies, including one at harm or jeopardy level and four tied to abuse, with the most recent survey in May 2025. Corporate for-profit ownership, 40 beds, and staffing that earns a single star tell you where the pressure points are.
Olivia Restorative Care Center has enough nurses on paper, 3.62 hours per resident day, close to the national figure, but that staffing thins out on weekends, running about 12% below its own weekday level. The bigger problem is what inspectors found: 40 deficiencies on the current record, six serious enough to put residents in harm's way and five tied to abuse. That's why CMS placed this 60-bed for-profit home in its Special Focus Facility program, a designation reserved for the worst repeat offenders. Staff turnover of 58.7% means the people providing care keep changing, which matters when residents need consistent attention. Inspectors were last on site in July 2025.
