Staff turnover

Saint Therese At Oxbow Lake runs on a non-profit model with 64 certified beds in Brooklyn Park, and its nurse staffing sits at 4.73 hours per resident day, about 22% above the national average of 3.86. Weekend coverage dips roughly 10% below its own weekday level, so the cushion narrows on Saturdays and Sundays. Staff turnover is 26.6%, well under the national 45.8%, which suggests people tend to stay. The inspection record carries more weight than the staffing story: 30 deficiencies on file, though none at harm or jeopardy level and none abuse-related. The last inspection was February 2026, so the picture is current. Strong daily care numbers, a thinner inspection history.

Mn Veterans Home-Luverne

Nurse staffing at the state veterans home in Luverne runs 5.24 hours per resident per day, roughly a third more than the national average of 3.86, and weekend coverage stays within about 10% of weekday levels, a gap that trips up plenty of homes. Staff turnover is 20.9% against a national 45.8%, so the people providing that care tend to stick around. The trade-off sits in the inspection record: nine deficiencies, including one at the harm level and three tied to abuse. That's worth asking about directly, even with a recent March 2026 inspection and a four-star health inspection rating behind it.

McIntosh Senior Living runs on a non-profit model with 45 certified beds, and the staffing numbers are the first thing worth noting: 4.92 nurse hours per resident day, about 27 percent above the national average. That matters more than any single inspection result, because consistent coverage is what keeps small homes safe day to day. Weekend staffing dips roughly 14 percent below its own weekday level, so ask how that gap gets covered. Staff turnover sits at 27 percent, well under the national 45.8 percent, which suggests people stay. The record shows 2 deficiencies, one serious enough to involve harm or jeopardy, with no abuse citations and a recent March 2026 inspection.

Karlstad Healthcare Center runs on a steady crew. Nurse staffing sits at 3.95 hours per resident day, a bit above the national average, and the 17.2% turnover rate is far below the 45.8% most homes average, that kind of retention usually shows up in how consistently residents see familiar faces. Inspections back it up: a five-star health inspection rating, with just five deficiencies on record and none at the harm or jeopardy level, though one is abuse-related. Weekend staffing dips about 12% below weekdays, worth asking about. The last inspection was May 2026, so the record is current.

Courage Kenny Rehabilitation Institutes Trp runs 56 certified beds in Golden Valley under nonprofit ownership, and the staffing numbers are the standout: 7.24 nurse hours per resident day, roughly double the national average of 3.86. Weekend coverage dips only about 6% below weekdays, and turnover at 38.7% sits below the 45.8% national figure. The weaker side is inspections, where CMS rates it 2 out of 5, with 12 deficiencies on record including one at the harm or jeopardy level and one tied to abuse, plus a $16,355 fine. That last inspection was recent, in March 2025, so the record is current rather than stale. Strong hands-on care, but a citation history worth asking about directly.

Boundary Waters Care Center runs on a nonprofit model with 42 beds in Ely, and the numbers behind its grade are worth walking through. Nurse staffing sits at 4.29 hours per resident day, roughly 11 percent above the national average, though weekend coverage drops about 16 percent below what the home staffs on weekdays, a pattern worth asking about if your family visits mainly on Saturdays or Sundays. Staff turnover lands at 41.7 percent, a bit better than the 45.8 percent national figure. The inspection record shows 11 deficiencies, none at the harm or jeopardy level and none abuse-related, with the most recent survey completed in December 2025. All three CMS star ratings, health inspections, quality measures, and staffing, come in at 5 out of 5.

Galeon runs a 40-bed nonprofit home in Osakis, and the staffing numbers are the first thing worth noticing: 5.37 nurse hours per resident per day, roughly 39% above the national average of 3.86. That kind of margin usually shows up in day-to-day care, though weekends dip about 22% below the home's own weekday level, so the coverage isn't perfectly even across the week. Staff turnover sits at 27.3%, well under the 45.8% national figure, which matters for residents who need consistent caregivers. On the inspection side, five deficiencies are on record with none at the harm or jeopardy level, but two are abuse-related, so it's worth asking how those were resolved. The most recent inspection was December 17, 2025.

Essentia Health Northern Pines runs 33 certified beds in Aurora, and its inspection record is the cleanest part of the story: five deficiencies on file, none of them causing harm or jeopardy, none tied to abuse, and a survey completed in January 2026. Nurse staffing works out to 3.67 hours per resident day, about 5% under the national figure, and weekends drop roughly 19% below what the home staffs on weekdays, worth asking about if your family visits Saturdays or Sundays. The number that stands out is turnover: 22.6% against a national average near 46%, meaning aides and nurses here tend to stay.

Perham Living is a 96-bed nonprofit home in Otter Tail County with 5.45 nurse staffing hours per resident day, roughly 41% above the national average of 3.86. Its 30% annual turnover is well below the 45.8% national rate, and it holds a perfect 5/5 on CMS staffing and a 5/5 on health inspections, with its last inspection dated March 24, 2026. Six deficiencies sit on the current record, none at the harm or jeopardy level, though one is abuse-related. Weekend staffing dips about 18% below weekdays, so you'll want to ask how that gap gets covered.

0

St Anthony Park Home runs a strong bedside operation on paper: 4.88 nurse hours per resident day is roughly a quarter above the national average, and 37.2% turnover beats the 45.8% national figure, both signs of stable, well-staffed care. Weekends dip about 7% below weekday coverage, a modest drop most families wouldn't notice. Where it slips is inspections, a 1-star health inspection rating and 42 deficiencies on record, including two abuse-related findings and one at the harm level, drive the middling grade far more than staffing or quality measures do. The single $8,827 fine is small, but the abuse citations and that harm-level deficiency are what you'd want to ask about directly.

Mount Olivet Careview Home runs on 5.25 total nurse staffing hours per resident day, roughly 36% above the national average, and its weekend coverage only dips about 7% below weekday levels, a fairly small drop. Staff turnover sits at 20.9%, less than half the national rate of 45.8%, which suggests people tend to stay. The trouble is on the inspection side: 17 deficiencies on the current record, including one at the harm or jeopardy level and three tied to abuse, plus a single fine of $55,043. The most recent inspection was February 25, 2026. Strong staffing and low turnover don't cancel out harm-level findings, they just mean the problems aren't coming from short-handed shifts.

Essentia Health Oak Crossing runs on 5.06 nurse hours per resident day, roughly a third more than the national average, and its staff turnover of 24.3% is nearly half the national rate, that kind of retention usually shows up in how consistently residents get the same caregivers. The tradeoffs are on the inspection side: 11 deficiencies on record, one serious enough to involve harm or jeopardy, and a $7,446 fine, though nothing abuse-related. The most recent inspection was December 2025, so the record is current. Weekend staffing dips about 10% below weekday levels, worth asking about if your family visits Saturdays or Sundays.

Charter House runs one of the thinnest-staffed business models you'll see anywhere, 9.47 nurse hours per resident day against a national average of 3.86, a number that would be hard to sustain if the census weren't so small and the nonprofit backing so steady. Weekends drop about 13% below weekday coverage, which matters in a 32-bed building where there's less slack to absorb a callout. Turnover sits at 53.8%, roughly eight points above the national figure, and the inspection record carries 10 deficiencies including one at the harm level and four tied to abuse. The last survey closed in late December 2025, so the file is fresh, and the single fine on record totals $8,824.

Flagstone runs on more nursing hours than most homes in the country, 4.29 per resident day against a national average of 3.86, and its staff tends to stay, with turnover at 37.5% compared to 45.8% nationally. Weekend coverage dips only slightly below weekday levels, so care doesn't drop off when the week ends. The trade-off shows up in its inspection record: 27 deficiencies, one tied to abuse, though none rose to actual harm or jeopardy. That history, plus a middling inspection rating, is why this nonprofit's strong bedside staffing and quality scores don't translate into a spotless record.

Field Crest is a 35-bed city-owned home in Hayfield, and the numbers suggest it runs with more staff than most places its size. At 5.29 nurse hours per resident day, it sits about 37% above the national average of 3.86, and weekend staffing only dips about 5% below its own weekday level, a small gap compared to what many homes show. Turnover runs 36.8%, better than the 45.8% national figure, which matters for whether you see the same faces on repeat visits. Its record shows one deficiency total, none at the harm level and none abuse-related, with a February 2026 inspection. City ownership and that thin deficiency history together point to a stable, closely watched building.

Gracepointe Crossing Gables runs a nonprofit shop with 110 beds, and the staffing numbers are the story here: 4.08 nurse hours per resident day, roughly 6% above the national average, with turnover at 40.8% against a national 45.8%. That combination matters, enough hands on deck, and fewer of them walking out the door than is typical. Weekend coverage dips about 6% below the home's own weekday level, so the Monday-through-Friday picture is stronger than Saturday and Sunday. Seven deficiencies sit on the current record, two of them serious enough to involve harm or jeopardy, though none tied to abuse. The last inspection was in September 2025, so that record is recent.

Catholic Eldercare On Main runs a nonprofit home of 164 beds in Minneapolis, and its staffing is the strongest part of the picture: 4.18 nurse hours per resident day, about 8% above the national average, with a 20% turnover rate that's less than half the national figure. Weekends dip roughly 12% below the home's own weekday staffing, so coverage isn't perfectly even. The inspection record is where it gets sobering, 32 deficiencies, including one at the harm level and two tied to abuse, plus a $24,297 fine and a two-star health inspection rating despite a December 2025 inspection. Quality measures score well at four stars; the survey history is the counterweight.

Parkview Home runs on a city/county budget in a town of about 400 people, and its staffing reflects that kind of stability: 4.07 nurse hours per resident day, roughly 6% above the national average, with turnover at 29.2% against a national 45.8%. Weekends thin out about 9% below weekday coverage, which is worth asking about if your family member needs more help on Saturdays and Sundays. The trouble sits on the inspection side, 20 deficiencies on the current record, including one at the harm level and two tied to abuse, plus a $14,521 fine. That mix of strong daily care and serious paperwork problems is what pulls the overall picture down.

Staff turnover
19%
Serious cites

Valley View runs a tight ship on staffing: 4.20 nurse hours per resident day, about 9% above the national average, and turnover sits at 19.1% when the typical home loses nearly 46% of its staff each year. That kind of retention matters, because residents see the same faces instead of a rotating cast. The catch is weekends, when coverage drops roughly 12% below the home's own weekday level. Inspections land in the middle, a 2025 visit, one harm-level deficiency among 10 total, no abuse findings, and a single $26,685 fine. Nonprofit ownership and 40 beds suggest a smaller operation. The weak spot isn't care quality on paper; it's whether the weekend shift erodes what the weekday numbers promise.

Gables Of Boutwells Landing runs 4.65 nurse hours per resident day, roughly a fifth more than the national average of 3.86, and weekend coverage stays within about 5% of its weekday level, a gap that's often wider elsewhere. Staff turnover sits at 31%, well under the 45.8% national figure, which matters for whether residents see the same faces. The trade-off shows up on the health inspection side: 11 deficiencies on the current record, one serious enough to reach harm or jeopardy level, and a mid-tier inspection rating. No abuse citations, and the last survey was June 2026, so the picture is current.
