Nursing homes across Christian County, Missouri, graded on the federal inspection
record, nurse staffing and staff turnover. County rank is shown on each home's profile.
Nixa Nursing & Rehab runs 82 certified beds under corporate ownership, and its last full inspection came back clean at the harm level, nine deficiencies total, none causing injury or jeopardy, though two were abuse-related. Staffing sits at 3.36 nurse hours per resident day, roughly 13% under the national average, and weekends dip about 11% below the home's own weekday coverage. Turnover of 45.1% lands right at the national norm, so retention isn't the problem here; raw hours are. The five-star inspection history and four-star staffing rating carry real weight, but a two-star quality measure score and thin weekend coverage are the tradeoffs worth asking about before you decide.
Ozark Riverview Manor runs 3.15 nurse hours per resident day against a national average of 3.86, and weekends dip about 15% below its own weekday levels. That staffing pattern, plus 63% annual turnover compared with 45.8% nationally, helps explain the two-out-of-five marks on both staffing and quality measures. The home carries 20 deficiencies, including one at the harm level and one abuse-related, and a $30,319 fine. Its last inspection was in December 2025, so the record is fairly current. As a nonprofit, it isn't chasing a quarterly number, but the numbers here still show thin coverage and a workforce that keeps changing.
Ozark Care & Rehab Center runs on 2.90 nursing hours per resident day, roughly a quarter below the national average of 3.86, and weekend staffing drops about 9% below its own weekday level. That thin coverage shows up in the federal ratings: one out of five stars for staffing, two for health inspections. The current record carries 39 deficiencies, including 3 at the harm or jeopardy level and 8 tied to abuse, plus two fines totaling $48,557. Inspectors last visited in December 2024. The quality measure score of three stars is the one bright spot, but it doesn't offset what the staffing and inspection numbers say about daily care.
