Bolivar Medical Center Ltc runs 35 certified beds in Cleveland under corporate for-profit ownership, and its strongest numbers show up in staffing and inspections. Nurse coverage sits at 4.43 hours per resident day, roughly 15% above the national average of 3.86, though weekends run about 13% leaner than weekdays. Staff turnover is a real weak spot at 53.8% against a national 45.8%, which matters when residents rely on familiar faces. The health inspection record is solid, four stars, five deficiencies and none involving harm, jeopardy, or abuse, last reviewed in July 2025. Quality measures tell a different story at one star, so care outcomes don't track with the staffing picture. Worth asking about retention and what those quality numbers reflect.

Care Center Of Laurel runs 120 certified beds under for-profit LLC ownership, and its nurse staffing sits slightly above the national average at 3.92 hours per resident day. That margin is thin, and weekends drop roughly 16% below weekday coverage, worth asking about if your family visits primarily on Saturdays or Sundays. Staff turnover is 41.2%, better than the 45.8% national figure, which suggests some stability in the workforce.
The current record shows 19 deficiencies, none at harm or jeopardy level and none abuse-related, with the most recent inspection in August 2025. Where this home separates itself is quality measures, which score 1 out of 5 stars. That gap between adequate staffing and poor clinical outcomes is the real question to press the administrator on.

Cleveland Community Care Center runs 21 deficiencies on its current record, and seven of those rose to the level of harm or jeopardy, three tied to abuse. That's a lot of serious findings for a 120-bed nonprofit, plus a single $229,213 fine, with the most recent inspection dated January 8, 2026. Staffing is the one number that looks decent: 3.73 nurse hours per resident day sits just under the national average of 3.86, and CMS gives staffing four stars. But weekends drop about 21% below the home's own weekday coverage, and turnover runs 49.6% against a national 45.8%. Reliable hands are the difference between a bad shift and a dangerous one.

Ocean Springs Health & Rehabilitation Center runs 115 certified beds under corporate ownership, and its staffing numbers sit about 15% under the national average at 3.29 nurse hours per resident day. Weekend coverage drops roughly 16% below what the home staffs on weekdays, and annual turnover hits 52% against a national average near 46%, meaning more than half the nursing staff leaves each year. The inspection record is the bigger concern: 31 deficiencies, five serious enough to put residents in harm's way, two tied to abuse, and $38,277 in fines across four penalties.

The Grove runs leaner on weekends than weekdays, staffing drops about 19%, but even that lower weekend figure sits near where most homes staff every day, since overall nurse coverage of 4.75 hours per resident is roughly a quarter above the national average. Turnover of 36% is better than the 45.8% typical elsewhere, though it still means more than a third of the nursing staff leaves each year. The inspection record shows 14 deficiencies, one tied to abuse, none rising to harm or jeopardy, and the last survey came in February 2026, so the picture is fairly current. The weak spot is quality measures, where the home scores near the bottom.

Bedford Care Center of Petal runs a tight ship on inspections, a five-star health inspection rating and six deficiencies on the current record, none of them at the harm or jeopardy level and none abuse-related. The last survey was in March 2025, so the picture is recent. Staffing sits at 4.28 nurse hours per resident day, roughly 11% above the national average, though weekends run about 13% thinner than weekdays. The number worth watching is turnover: 64.5% a year against a national average of 45.8%, which means the people around your family member may change often even when the hours look good. One fine on record, $22,198.

Willow Creek runs a for-profit, LLC-owned home of 88 beds in Byram, and the staffing is the bright spot: 4.05 nurse hours per resident day, roughly 5% above the national average, which is why CMS gives it 4 out of 5 stars on staffing. But weekends drop about 10% below its own weekday coverage, and annual turnover sits at 52.9% against a national 45.8%, so the people covering those shifts keep changing. The record shows 24 deficiencies, including one at harm or jeopardy level and one tied to abuse, plus an $8,018 fine. Inspectors were last in on March 5, 2026, and the health inspection and quality ratings both came back 2 out of 5.

Nurse staffing at Bedford runs 4.61 hours per resident day, roughly 19 percent above the national average, and weekends dip about 12 percent below its own weekday level. The inspection history is where the picture darkens: three deficiencies on record, two of them at the harm or jeopardy level, one abuse-related, plus a single $66,700 fine. Staff turnover sits at 53.8 percent against a national average near 45.8, so a fair share of the people providing that above-average care are new or on their way out. The most recent inspection was August 14, 2025. A for-profit limited liability company operates the 60-bed home.

Attala County Nursing Center runs 3.91 nurse hours per resident day, just a hair above the national average of 3.86, and its staff turnover of 32% sits well below the 45.8% national figure, that kind of retention usually means steadier hands on the floor. But weekend staffing drops about 17% from weekday levels, and the record shows 18 deficiencies, including two at harm or jeopardy level and two tied to abuse. The last inspection was August 2025. Quality measures score 1 out of 5, while staffing earns 4. Roughly 120 certified beds under corporate for-profit ownership. The B reflects real strengths in staffing and retention, offset by quality and safety concerns worth asking about directly.

Hillcrest Nursing Center runs lean on nurse staffing, 3.47 hours per resident day, roughly 10% under the national average, and weekends dip about 15% below what the home staffs on weekdays, which is when families tend to visit and notice. Turnover sits at 43.7%, a touch better than the national 45.8%, so the crew is comparatively stable even if thin. The inspection record is the strong point: seven deficiencies, none at harm or jeopardy level and none abuse-related, with a survey as recent as April 2025. Quality measures score lower, which fits a home where care is decent but resources are stretched.

Arrington Living Center is city/county-owned, and its nurse staffing runs 4.61 hours per resident day, roughly 19% above the national average, which is a real strength. The catch is weekends: coverage drops about 18% below its own weekday level, so care thins out exactly when families tend to visit. Turnover sits at 46.8%, a hair above the national 45.8%, and the current record shows 7 deficiencies, 3 of them at harm or jeopardy level, including 1 abuse-related citation, plus two fines totaling $17,727. The most recent inspection was May 2025, so that record is fairly fresh. Strong weekday staffing, but the quality measure score and those harm-level findings are what pull the overall picture down.

Crystal Rehabilitation and Healthcare Center runs about 3.99 nurse hours per resident day, a bit above the national average, and its staff turnover of 34.1% is meaningfully lower than the typical 45.8%. Those are real positives, and weekend coverage dips only slightly compared with weekdays. The problem sits on the inspection side: 27 deficiencies on the current record, including one at the harm or jeopardy level and one tied to abuse, with a single fine of $8,788. State inspectors last visited in October 2024, and the health inspection rating came back at 1 out of 5. This is a for-profit corporate home where the care numbers look steadier than the compliance record does, worth asking about directly before you decide.

Lakeland Community Care Center runs 105 certified beds in Jackson under for-profit LLC ownership, and its staffing numbers carry a catch worth knowing. Total nurse coverage of 3.90 hours per resident day edges out the national average of 3.86, but weekends drop roughly 22% below what the home staffs on weekdays, so the care you'd see on a Tuesday isn't the care you'd see on a Sunday. Turnover sits at 59% against a national 45.8%, meaning more than half the nursing staff leaves within a year. The record shows 29 deficiencies, one abuse-related and none at harm level, plus a single $8,424 fine. A January 2025 inspection is recent, and the 2/5 health inspection rating reflects those findings.

Diversicare Of Brookhaven runs 58 certified beds under corporate for-profit ownership, and its nurse staffing sits about 10% under the national average at 3.49 hours per resident day. Weekends dip roughly 17% below its own weekday coverage, so the hours when families tend to visit are also when the floor is thinnest. Staff turnover is 52.2% against a national 45.8%, meaning more than half the nursing team turns over in a year. The current inspection record carries 26 deficiencies, including one at the harm level and two tied to abuse, with a single fine of $8,788 and a January 2026 inspection date. The two-star health inspection rating reflects that citation history, most of what the state has found here involves how care is actually delivered, not paperwork.

Leakesville Rehabilitation And Nursing Center runs on 4.62 nurse hours per resident day, roughly a fifth more staffing than the typical American nursing home, and its inspectors have logged 13 deficiencies with none rising to harm or jeopardy and nothing abuse-related. The catch is consistency: weekend coverage drops about 17% below what the same building manages on weekdays, and a 1-out-of-5 quality measure rating suggests the charted outcomes don't match what the staffing numbers promise. Staff turnover of 41.9% is a little better than the national 45.8%, and a November 2025 inspection means the record is recent. Corporate-owned, 60 beds, and worth asking about weekend coverage specifically.

Vineyard Court runs a corporate-owned, 55-bed home in Columbus where the nurse staffing number looks good on paper, 3.96 hours per resident day, slightly above the national average, but weekends drop about 12% below its own weekday level, and turnover sits at 51.7% against a national 45.8%. The inspection record is where the real trouble shows: 25 deficiencies, 10 of them serious enough to cause harm or put residents in jeopardy, 2 tied to abuse, and $78,952 in fines across three penalties. The most recent inspection was in February 2025, so the picture is current. Staffing stars don't offset that kind of citation history.

J G Alexander Nursing Center runs on thin margins that show up in different ways. The 4.37 nurse hours per resident day beats the national average by about 13%, and CMS gives staffing its top mark, but weekend coverage drops roughly 28% below weekday levels, so the care you'd see depends on when you visit. Turnover sits at 48.1%, slightly above the national 45.8%, meaning a lot of the people providing that care are still learning the building. Inspections tell a more mixed story: 16 deficiencies on record, three serious enough to involve harm or jeopardy, and $10,868 in fines across two events. The last inspection was April 2026, so the record is current.

Dunbar Village Terrace sits right around the national average for nurse staffing, 3.89 hours per resident day against 3.86 nationally, so there's no real cushion there, and weekends run about 13% thinner than weekdays. The bigger number to sit with is turnover: 61.7% annually, well above the 45.8% national average, which means the people caring for residents are changing over faster than at a typical home. Inspections look solid on paper, a 4 out of 5 star rating with the most recent visit in July 2025, but the record shows 10 deficiencies including one at the harm level, plus an $8,021 fine. This is a for-profit partnership, 60 beds.

Lawrence County Nursing Center runs a lean ship on the floor. At 3.52 nurse hours per resident day, it sits about 9% under the national average, and weekends drop roughly 18% below its own weekday pace, so the thinnest coverage lands exactly when families tend to visit. The tradeoff is retention: 26.7% turnover is well below the 45.8% national figure, meaning the aides you meet are more likely to still be there next year. What pulls the record down sits elsewhere. Seventeen deficiencies, two of them at harm or jeopardy level, and a one-star inspection rating with a matching one-star quality score. Two fines total $16,720. The most recent inspection was April 2025.

Sharkey-Issaquena Nursing Home is county-owned and small, with 54 certified beds in Rolling Fork. Its ten deficiencies on the current record were all lower-level, none caused harm or jeopardy to a resident, and none were abuse-related, which matters more than the raw count. The last inspection was in October 2024, so the record is reasonably current. Federal ratings land at three stars for both health inspections and quality measures, putting this home squarely in the middle of the pack rather than at either extreme. For a family weighing a rural Mississippi county facility, the honest read is a place with no serious safety citations on file, average marks, and the accountability that comes with public ownership.
