Macon Health Care Center runs on a for-profit corporate model with 84 certified beds, and its nursing hours land at 3.50 per resident day, about 9% under the national average of 3.86. Weekends get thinner still, roughly 19% below the home's own weekday staffing. What stands out is retention: turnover sits at 20.6% against a national average of 45.8%, meaning the people here tend to stay. The inspection record shows 21 deficiencies, none at harm or jeopardy level and none abuse-related, with the most recent visit in April 2025. Quality and staffing measures both rate well above average, and while the raw nursing hours trail the norm, a stable workforce and a clean harm record count for something a family should weigh.

La Plata Nursing Home runs on county money, and the numbers show a place that's steady but not especially well-staffed. At 3.52 nurse hours per resident day, it sits about 9% under the national average of 3.86, and weekends drop roughly 14% below its own weekday coverage, so the thinnest shifts come when families tend to visit. Turnover is a genuine bright spot: 30% against a national 45.8% means aides and nurses here tend to stay. The tradeoff is a 30-deficiency record, including two at harm or jeopardy level and two tied to abuse, with the last inspection in November 2024. Quality measures score low; staffing and inspections land mid-range.

Loch Haven is county-owned, and its 100 beds run on 3.57 nurse hours per resident day, roughly 8% under the national average of 3.86, with weekends about 10% thinner than weekdays. That staffing shows up as a 4/5 CMS staffing star, and turnover is genuinely low at 29.8% against a 45.8% national average, which suggests people stay. The trouble sits elsewhere: a 2/5 inspection rating, 32 deficiencies on the current record including two at harm or jeopardy level, and $77,841 in fines across two events. No abuse citations, and the most recent inspection was August 2025, so the picture is current. Quality measures land mid-range at 3/5.
