The nurse staffing here works out to 3.88 hours per resident per day, essentially even with the national average of 3.86, so this isn't a place padding its numbers with aides. Weekends run about 17 percent lighter than weekdays, which is worth asking about if your family member needs more help on Saturdays and Sundays. What stands out is retention: 28.6 percent turnover against a national average near 46 percent, meaning the people caring for residents tend to stay. Fifteen deficiencies sit on the current record, but none involved harm or jeopardy and none were abuse-related, and the last inspection was in January 2025.

The Ambassador in Nebraska City runs on more nursing hours than most homes, 4.39 per resident day against a national average of 3.86, and that staffing shows in a four-star rating there. Turnover sits at 44.9%, essentially the national rate, while weekend coverage drops about 13% below the home's own weekday level, so care can thin out when families visit. Inspections in October 2024 turned up seven deficiencies, none causing harm or jeopardy, though two were abuse-related. For-profit corporate ownership is worth knowing about, but the record itself reads steady.

Elwood Care Center is city-owned, which is unusual, most nursing homes are run for profit, and it tends to show in how the place is staffed. Nurses here give about 4.01 hours of care per resident each day, a bit above the national average, though weekends run roughly 9% leaner than weekdays. Staff turnover sits at 39.4%, lower than the 45.8% national figure, meaning fewer unfamiliar faces. The home was inspected in February 2025 and carries just four deficiencies, none involving harm or abuse. Quality measures score a middling 3 out of 5, but the inspection and staffing records are what carry this one.

Brookestone View runs on 4.22 nurse hours per resident day, roughly 9% above the national average, and its staff turnover sits at 29.8% against a national 45.8%, that retention is doing real work here. The trade-off is weekends: staffing drops about 12% below the home's own weekday level, so coverage isn't perfectly level across the week. Inspections show 11 deficiencies on record, none at the harm level and none abuse-related, and the most recent visit was June 2026. All three CMS star ratings land at 4 out of 5. For a 60-bed nonprofit in Custer County, the numbers point to steady nursing presence and stable leadership rather than anything flashy.

Sandhills Care Center is county-owned, which matters here, no corporate chain pulling the strings, and the city or county answers for how it runs. Staffing sits at 4.28 nurse hours per resident day, about 11% above the national average, though weekends run roughly 19% leaner than weekdays, so care can thin out when families visit. The health inspection record is the weak spot: 22 deficiencies, including three tied to abuse, though none rose to actual harm or jeopardy. The last inspection was June 2025, so that picture is current. Quality measures score well on paper, but the inspection findings are where the real problems live.

Hillcrest Firethorn runs 72 beds in Lincoln under corporate ownership, and its nurse staffing sits right at the national mark, 3.89 hours per resident day against 3.86 nationally, so about a 1% edge. Weekends tell a different story: coverage drops roughly 11% below the home's own weekday level, which is worth asking about if your family visits or calls on Saturdays and Sundays. Turnover is the genuine bright spot at 37.8%, well under the 45.8% national average, meaning aides and nurses tend to stay. The tradeoff shows up in inspections, 12 deficiencies on record, one serious enough to involve harm or jeopardy, though none tied to abuse. The last state visit was April 2025, so the record is recent.

Ambassador Health of Lincoln runs 5.36 nurse staffing hours per resident day, roughly 39% above the national average of 3.86, that's the real story here. Weekend staffing dips about 15% below weekday levels, and turnover sits at 40.2%, a bit better than the national 45.8%. Inspections turned up 16 deficiencies, none at the harm or jeopardy level, though one is abuse-related. That's a lot of paperwork-level findings without anyone getting hurt, and the state last visited in November 2024. For-profit corporate ownership, 122 beds, and quality and staffing marks that hold up better than the inspection record does.

Heritage of Emerson runs 38 beds under corporate ownership, and its staffing is the weak spot: 3.04 nurse hours per resident day, roughly a fifth under the national average, with weekends about 13% thinner than weekdays. Turnover sits at 39.3%, better than the 45.8% national figure, so the people who stay tend to stay. Inspections look solid, a 4/5 health inspection rating, a 5/5 on quality measures, and the most recent visit was June 2025. Nine deficiencies are on record, none at the harm level, though one is abuse-related, which is worth asking about directly.

Linden Court runs a nonprofit shop with 135 beds, and its staffing sits right at the national average, 3.90 nurse hours per resident day against 3.86. That's a thin margin. Weekends drop about 15% below its own weekday coverage, so the hours aren't distributed evenly across the week. Turnover comes in at 39%, better than the 45.8% national figure, which matters for consistency of care. The inspection record is the weaker side: 17 deficiencies on file, including one at the harm level and one abuse-related, plus a $14,017 fine. The most recent inspection was April 2026.

Maple Crest runs a corporate-owned, 175-bed operation in Omaha with a staffing picture that stands out: 4.46 nurse hours per resident day, roughly 15 percent above the national average, and turnover at 38.1 percent compared with 45.8 percent nationally. Weekends dip about 10 percent below weekday coverage, so a Friday-to-Sunday stretch looks thinner than the weekday numbers suggest. The inspection record is where the tension sits. That staffing strength earned top marks on the federal staffing measure, but health inspections landed at the lowest rating, with 37 deficiencies on file, five tied to abuse, none flagged at the harm or jeopardy level. The most recent inspection closed in September 2025, so the record is current, and the quality measures sit below middle.

Sutton Community Home runs on a nonprofit model with 31 beds, and its staffing is the strongest part of the picture: 4.72 nurse hours per resident day, roughly 22 percent above the national average. Weekend coverage dips about 7 percent below its own weekday level, and turnover sits at 37.9 percent, better than the 45.8 percent national figure, though still meaning more than a third of staff leaving each year. The current record shows 12 deficiencies, none at the harm or jeopardy level and none abuse-related, with the last inspection in December 2025. The weak spot is quality measures, which lag well behind what the staffing numbers would suggest.

Good Samaritan Society - Albion runs on 3.50 nurse hours per resident day, roughly 9% under the national average of 3.86, and weekends dip about 18% below what the home staffs Monday through Friday. That gap matters more than the weekday number, since falls and infections don't schedule themselves around a lighter weekend roster. Turnover sits at 40.4%, better than the 45.8% national figure, and the inspection record is clean where it counts: four deficiencies total, none at harm or jeopardy level, though one is abuse-related. A 5/5 inspection rating and a May 2026 survey mean the state found this place in good shape. The tradeoff is thin daily coverage, especially on weekends.

Fairview Manor runs on a city-county budget in a town of about 6,000, and the numbers suggest that setup is working. Nurses give residents 4.13 hours of care a day, roughly 7 percent more than the national average, and only 16.3 percent of staff left last year against a national rate near 46 percent, that kind of retention usually means people want to stay. Inspection history is clean: three deficiencies on record, none causing harm, none tied to abuse, and the last state visit came in January 2026. The softer spot is weekend coverage, which dips about 19 percent below weekday levels, and quality measures sit mid-range.

South Haven Living Center runs on better-than-average nurse coverage, 3.95 hours per resident day against a national figure near 3.86, and its staff stick around at a rate most homes would envy, with turnover at 32.2% versus 45.8% nationally. Weekend hours drop roughly 15% below weekday levels, so ask how that plays out on a Sunday afternoon. The inspection record is clean where it matters most: six deficiencies, none involving harm or abuse, and the most recent survey came in July 2025. Quality measure scores sit lower than the staffing and inspection marks, which is the tension worth asking about when you visit.

Harvard Rest Haven runs on a fairly lean crew for a 30-bed home, though the 4.41 nurse hours per resident day lands above the national average. Weekends are where it thins out, roughly 19% less staffing than weekdays, which is common but worth knowing if your family visits or calls on Saturdays and Sundays. Staff turnover sits at 48.5%, a bit above the national figure, so continuity of caregivers isn't guaranteed. The inspection record is genuinely strong: a 5/5 health inspection rating, ten deficiencies on file with none at the harm level, and the most recent survey done in February 2025. One abuse-related deficiency is on the record, which you should ask about directly.

Midwest Covenant Home runs a solidly staffed floor: 4.30 nurse hours per resident day puts it about 11% above the national average, and CMS gives that staffing a 4 out of 5. The catch is consistency, weekends run roughly 14% leaner than weekdays, and turnover sits at 49.2%, a few points above the national rate, so familiar faces cycle through. The record shows 12 deficiencies from a March 2025 inspection, none rising to harm or jeopardy, though two are abuse-related, which any family should ask about directly. Its inspection and quality ratings both land at 3 out of 5. This nonprofit is decently resourced and recently reviewed; the questions worth pressing on are weekend coverage and how those abuse findings were resolved.

Hillcrest runs on county money, and the staffing shows it: 4.88 nurse hours per resident day against a national average of 3.86, with turnover at 36.3% compared to 45.8% nationally. That's a real edge in keeping aides and nurses on the floor, though weekends run about 13% thinner than weekdays, so coverage isn't perfectly even. The softer spots are inspections and quality measures, both two out of five stars, with 16 deficiencies on record, one tied to abuse. None of those rose to harm or jeopardy level, and the most recent inspection was May 2026. Strong hands-on care, middling survey history, that's the tradeoff here.

The numbers here start with people. At 6.66 nurse hours per resident per day, Ambassador Health Of Omaha runs about 72% above the national average, and its staff turnover of 28.3% sits well under the 45.8% national figure, a combination that usually means caregivers stay long enough to know the residents. Weekend coverage dips roughly 9% below its own weekday level, so ask how that plays out on Saturdays and Sundays. The current record shows five deficiencies, none at the harm level and none abuse-related, with an inspection completed in July 2025. A for-profit corporation owns the 146-bed building; quality and staffing marks are strong, inspection history solid.

Cloverlodge Care Center in St Edward runs a tight ship on inspections, four stars, nine deficiencies on record, none at the harm level and none abuse-related, with a survey as recent as April 2025. The staffing picture is more mixed: 3.29 nurse hours per resident day sits about 15% under the national average, and weekends drop roughly 14% below the home's own weekday coverage, so families should ask who's on the floor on Saturdays and Sundays. What stands out is retention, 23.3% turnover against a national average of 45.8% means aides and nurses tend to stay, which matters more for daily care than a single number suggests. Nonprofit ownership, 47 beds.

Good Samaritan Society - Beatrice runs an 80-bed nonprofit home where the staff tends to stay. Annual turnover of 16.1% is roughly a third of the national average, which matters more than any single inspection result, it means the people caring for residents know the building and know them. Nurse staffing sits just under the national average at 3.74 hours per resident day, and weekends run about 13% leaner than weekdays, so afternoons and Saturdays are the thinner stretches to ask about. The record shows 14 deficiencies with none at the harm level and none abuse-related, and the last inspection was in January 2026, so the picture is current. Solid nursing hours, low turnover, no serious findings.
