Nursing homes across Greene County, Missouri, graded on the federal inspection
record, nurse staffing and staff turnover. County rank is shown on each home's profile.
Manor At Elfindale runs on more nursing hours than most places, 4.43 per resident day against a national average of 3.86, and its staff tends to stay, with turnover at 34.9% versus 45.8% nationally. Weekends get thinner, though, dropping about 16% below weekday coverage, which is worth asking about if your family member needs more help on Saturdays and Sundays. The home carries 10 deficiencies on its current record, none at the harm level, one tied to abuse; that last one deserves a direct question about what happened and what changed. A November 2025 inspection means the picture is recent.
Cox Medical Centers Meyer Orthopedic and Surgical runs 28 certified beds in Springfield, and the staffing numbers here are unusual: 10.00 nurse hours per resident day, roughly two and a half times the national average of 3.86. Weekend coverage actually edges out weekdays, so care doesn't thin out when families tend to visit. The tradeoff is retention, 54.5% annual turnover, well above the 45.8% national figure, meaning the people delivering those hours keep changing. Inspections look strong on paper: a 5/5 health inspection rating, four deficiencies total, none causing harm or involving abuse, and a survey as recent as May 2024. Nonprofit ownership with that staffing cushion is a real advantage; just ask how they hold onto nurses.
Wilson's Creek runs a 172-bed for-profit operation in Springfield, and the numbers tell a mixed story. Nurse staffing sits at 2.84 hours per resident per day, roughly 27% under the national average of 3.86, and weekends drop about 9% below what the home staffs on weekdays, so coverage thins out exactly when families tend to visit. Turnover is the bright spot: 26.9% against a national 45.8%, meaning aides and nurses tend to stick around. Inspections look good on paper, but 18 deficiencies are on the current record, including one at the harm level and four tied to abuse. Ask about those four before you decide anything.
Maranatha Village runs on better-than-average nursing hours, 3.94 per resident day against a national 3.86, and its 40.8% turnover comes in under the 45.8% typical elsewhere, which matters for whether your family sees the same faces month to month. Weekend coverage drops roughly 14% below weekday levels, so pay attention to Saturday and Sunday care if you visit then. The 26 deficiencies on record include five tied to abuse, none reaching harm or jeopardy level, and the last full inspection was April 2024. Quality measures score at the top of CMS's scale, with staffing close behind; inspections sit in the middle.
Springfield Rehabilitation runs 146 beds under corporate ownership, and its nurse staffing sits at 3.03 hours per resident day, roughly 21% under the national average of 3.86. Weekends dip about 13% below the home's own weekday coverage, so the thinnest shifts land when families tend to visit. Turnover is 43.6%, slightly better than the 45.8% national figure, which matters less than the raw hours when aides are stretched. The inspection record shows 31 deficiencies, none at harm or jeopardy level and none abuse-related, with the last visit in May 2024. Quality measures score well; the inspection history and daily staffing tell the more grounded story.
Republic Nursing & Rehab runs about 3.02 nurse hours per resident day, roughly 22% under the national average of 3.86, and weekends dip another 10% below its own weekday staffing. That matters more than the strong inspection and quality scores suggest, since 51% annual turnover means the aides and nurses around your relative are frequently new, and three abuse-related deficiencies sit on a record that otherwise shows no harm-level findings. Greene County families weighing this 127-bed corporate-owned home should ask how the weekend shift is actually covered before assuming the recent September 2025 inspection tells the whole story.
The Maples sits at 120 beds in Springfield under individual for-profit ownership, and its last full inspection was in March 2025, recent enough that the 22 deficiencies on record, including one at the harm level and two tied to abuse, reflect how the home is running now rather than problems long since fixed. Staffing lands right at the national average of 3.86 nurse hours per resident day, but weekends run about 11% thinner than weekdays, and turnover hits 49.5% against a 45.8% national benchmark. Federal quality measures look strong at 5 out of 5 stars, which makes the inspection findings and the churn worth asking about directly.
Neighborhoods At Quail Creek runs a for-profit operation under a limited liability company, and the numbers tell a mixed story. Nurse staffing sits at 4.16 hours per resident day, about 8% above the national average, though weekends drop roughly 11% below the home's own weekday coverage. Staff turnover comes in at 40%, a bit better than the 45.8% national figure. The current inspection record shows 23 deficiencies, including 6 tied to abuse, though none reached the harm or jeopardy level, and the last inspection was in August 2024. Federal ratings place staffing at 4 out of 5 stars but quality measures at just 2, with health inspections at 3, worth asking about directly before you decide.
Brookhaven runs 90 beds under corporate ownership, and its staffing is the part that stands out, 3.73 nurse hours per resident day sits a little under the national average, and weekends drop roughly 15% below its own weekday coverage. That thin weekend margin matters more when turnover is 62.5% against a national 45.8%, because replacements are constantly learning the building. The inspection record shows 37 deficiencies, none flagged at harm or jeopardy level, though four are abuse-related and the last survey was December 2024. None of this reads as dangerous, exactly; it reads as a building running lean on people while staying in reasonable regulatory standing. The quality and inspection ratings land mid-range, and the staffing rating is where the strain shows.
Sunterra Springs Springfield runs 38 beds under for-profit LLC ownership, and its nurse staffing sits at 3.99 hours per resident day, slightly above the national average of 3.86. That margin narrows on weekends, when coverage drops about 15% below the home's own weekday level. Staff turnover is the bigger issue: 66% annually against a national average of 45.8%, meaning most of the people caring for residents are relatively new or on their way out. The inspection record shows 29 deficiencies, including one at the harm level and three tied to abuse, with 12 fines totaling $67,701. The most recent inspection was June 2, 2025. Quality measures score well, but the inspection and turnover numbers are what families should weigh.
Magnolia Square runs on about 3.46 nurse hours per resident per day, roughly 10% under the national average, and staffing thins out on weekends, about 23% below the home's own weekday level. Annual turnover sits at 53.8%, well above the national 45.8%, so the people caring for your relative are changing often. The inspection record shows seven deficiencies, including one at the harm or jeopardy level and two tied to abuse, plus a $26,215 fine; the last inspection was February 2025. Ownership is a for-profit limited liability company. The 4/5 quality measure score reflects charted care outcomes, but it doesn't offset thin staffing or those inspection findings.
Birch Pointe runs 120 beds under for-profit LLC ownership, and the staffing numbers are where your attention should go first. At 3.24 nurse hours per resident day, it sits about 16% under the national average of 3.86, and weekends drop roughly another 13% below its own weekday coverage, so the thinnest shifts land when families tend to visit. Annual turnover of 63.3% against a national 45.8% means caregivers are cycling through steadily, which matters for anyone who needs consistent hands on deck. The record shows 30 deficiencies, including one at harm or jeopardy level and four tied to abuse, with the most recent inspection in February 2025.
James River Nursing and Rehabilitation runs 120 certified beds in Springfield under individual for-profit ownership, and its staffing picture is the main thing to know. Nurses provide 3.60 hours per resident day, roughly 7% under the national average, and weekend coverage drops about 18% below what the home staffs on weekdays. Annual turnover sits at 64% against a national 45.8%, so the people caring for residents change often.
The current record shows 27 deficiencies, one abuse-related, though none at the harm or jeopardy level. Inspectors last visited July 30, 2024. CMS gives the home middle marks for health inspections and quality measures, but two stars for staffing, the number that tracks closest to daily care.
Glendale Gardens runs lean on nursing hours, 3.15 per resident day against a national average of 3.86, and weekends drop about 22% below what the building staffs on weekdays. That gap matters more than the headline number, because weekends are when families often visit and when problems surface. Turnover sits at 57.3%, well above the 45.8% national figure, so the people providing care keep changing. The inspection record shows 34 deficiencies, six of them abuse-related, though none at the harm or jeopardy level, and the last survey was recent, in December 2025. Quality measures score well at 4 out of 5, but staffing sits at 2, which is the number to weigh when you're deciding whether this place can reliably cover a 120-bed building.
Spring Valley runs 194 beds in Springfield under individual for-profit ownership, and its nurse staffing sits about 28% under the national average, 2.77 hours per resident day against 3.86. Weekends dip roughly a fifth below its own weekday coverage, and 56.1% of staff turned over in a year, against 45.8% nationally. The inspection record is the harder problem: 68 deficiencies, two at harm or jeopardy level, and eight tied to abuse. State surveyors were last in on August 25, 2025. What the five-star quality measure score reflects is hard to know when that much turns over and that few nurses are on the floor.
Woodland Care & Rehab Center runs 94 certified beds in Springfield under individual for-profit ownership, and the staffing numbers are where I'd start. At 3.44 nurse hours per resident day, it sits about 11% under the national average of 3.86, and weekends drop roughly 19% below its own weekday coverage, so the thinnest shifts land when families tend to visit. Staff turnover is 61.5% against a national 45.8%, which means by the time your relative settles in, a good share of the aides who know them may already be gone. The current record shows 43 deficiencies, six tied to abuse, though none at the harm or jeopardy level. State inspectors were last in on June 13, 2025.
Ash Grove Healthcare Facility runs on thinner staffing than most homes you'll compare it to, about 3.20 nurse hours per resident day against a national average near 3.86, with weekends dropping roughly 16% below its own weekday coverage. That gap matters most on Saturdays and Sundays, when residents still need the same hands. Annual turnover of 63.6% is well above the 45.8% national figure, so the people providing that care are changing often. The inspection record is genuinely decent: a 4-out-of-5 health inspection rating, no deficiencies at the harm or jeopardy level, and a current survey from January 2025. But 16 deficiencies including two abuse-related citations, and a 1-out-of-5 quality measure rating, mean the day-to-day clinical picture doesn't match the strong inspection score.
Springfield Villa runs on 2.96 nursing hours per resident day, roughly a quarter below the national average, and weekends dip about 20% below what the home itself staffs on weekdays. That thin coverage is hard to separate from the rest of the record: 64% annual turnover, a one-star CMS staffing rating, and 36 deficiencies logged, including three at the harm or jeopardy level and one tied to abuse. The last inspection was November 2023, and there's a $69,595 fine on file. Quality measures score mid-range at three stars, but with staffing this far under the norm and a for-profit LLC structure, the numbers point to a home where care depends heavily on who happens to be on shift.
Willard Care Center is a 66-bed for-profit home in Greene County with a strong inspection record, 4 out of 5 stars, 21 deficiencies on file and none at the harm or jeopardy level. The trouble sits elsewhere. Nurse staffing runs 3.19 hours per resident day, roughly 17% under the national average, and weekends drop about 23% below the home's own weekday levels. Annual turnover hits 70.9% against a national 45.8%, meaning most of the aides and nurses your family member sees will likely be gone within a year. The quality measure score of 1 out of 5 fits that picture. Recent inspections look clean, but consistent hands on deck is the harder problem to solve.
Springfield Skilled Care Center runs on 2.96 nurse hours per resident day, roughly a quarter below the national average of 3.86, and weekends drop another 17% below its own weekday coverage. Staff turnover sits at 79% against a national 45.8%, which means the people caring for residents are, more often than not, new to the building. The inspection record shows 97 deficiencies, including 5 at harm or jeopardy level and 6 tied to abuse, with two fines totaling $189,066. Corporate-owned and Medicare-certified for 120 beds, its last inspection was February 2025. A 1/5 inspection rating and 1/5 staffing rating are the numbers families should weigh hardest here.
