All 70 Medicare-certified nursing homes in Cincinnati,
side by side on the things that separate them: how many nursing hours each resident gets, how much of the
staff leaves each year, and what inspectors found on their last visit.
Brookwood Care Center runs 4.20 nurse hours per resident per day, about 9% above the national average, though weekends dip roughly 10% below its own weekday staffing. Turnover sits at 53.4% against a national 45.8%, so the people around your family member likely change often. The current record shows 36 deficiencies, none at harm or jeopardy level, but two tied to abuse, plus five fines totaling $28,517. The last inspection was January 23, 2026. Quality measures score well, staffing and inspections land in the middle. A for-profit corporation owns the 125-bed home. Solid numbers on care hours and quality, but the turnover and abuse-related findings deserve your questions before you decide.
Carecore At The Meadows runs 97 beds as a for-profit partnership, and the numbers tell two different stories. The clinical quality measures look strong, but staffing sits at 3.13 nurse hours per resident day, roughly 19% under the national average, and weekends drop another 11% below the home's own weekday level. Annual turnover of 54.4% tops the national rate, so the people providing that care keep changing. On inspections, the record shows 46 deficiencies, including 2 at harm or jeopardy level and 4 abuse-related, with the most recent visit in May 2024. A partnership-run home with that many findings and that thin a staffing floor is worth asking hard questions about before you decide.
Parkview Northwest runs on 3.22 nurse hours per resident day, roughly 17% under the national average, and weekends dip about 7% below its own weekday staffing. That thin coverage sits behind 36 deficiencies on the current record, including two at the harm level and three tied to abuse, plus $45,503 in fines across two penalties. Turnover is the one bright spot: 35.9% against a national 45.8%, meaning aides tend to stay. The last inspection was September 2024, and the quality measure score is strong, but with corporate ownership and below-average staffing, the inspection history carries more weight than the five-star quality number.
Madeira Healthcare Center runs on thinner nursing coverage than most homes, 3.58 hours per resident day against a national average of 3.86, and weekends get leaner still, dropping about 9% below its own weekday staffing. Staff turnover sits at 57.7% while the national figure is 45.8%, so a large share of caregivers are relatively new to the building. The inspection record shows 34 deficiencies, one serious enough to reach harm or jeopardy level, and a $16,801 fine, though the last full inspection was in March 2025 and nothing on the record involves abuse. Quality measures score well federally; staffing and inspection results don't follow. For-profit corporate ownership. Ask about weekend coverage and how long direct-care staff tend to stay.
Glendale Place Care Center is a for-profit home with 122 beds in Cincinnati, and its numbers don't all point the same direction. The clinical quality measures are genuinely strong, but staffing sits at 3.58 hours per resident day, about 7% under the national average, and drops another 9% on weekends, when coverage is typically thinnest. Annual turnover of 61.9% is well above the 45.8% national figure, which means caregivers are cycling through faster than residents can get used to them.
On inspections, 20 deficiencies appear on the current record, three tied to abuse; none reached the harm or jeopardy level. The most recent inspection was August 2025. Ask about weekend coverage and how they keep consistent aides on the floor.
The Home At Taylor's Pointe runs a 92-bed for-profit operation in Cincinnati, and its numbers pull in two directions. Inspections look solid, a recent March 2025 survey with 14 deficiencies, none rising to harm or jeopardy level, and no abuse citations. But look at the people doing the work: 3.52 nurse hours per resident day sits roughly 9% under the national average, weekend coverage drops about 12% below its own weekday staffing, and 53.1% of staff turned over in a year against a 45.8% national rate. You can have a clean inspection record and still feel short-staffed on a Sunday afternoon. Ask how they cover weekends and how long their current aides have actually been there.
Mt Airy Gardens runs 99 certified beds as a for-profit corporation, and its staffing numbers tell the clearest story here: 3.60 nurse hours per resident day sits about 7% under the national average, weekends dip another 7% below its own weekdays, and annual turnover hits 60% against a national 45.8%. That churn makes it hard to keep consistent caregivers at the bedside. The current inspection record carries 68 deficiencies, one serious enough to reach harm or jeopardy level, plus a $10,039 fine, though the most recent inspection was February 2025, so the picture is current. Quality measures score well, but staffing and inspection results are where the concerns concentrate.
Delhi Post-Acute runs 116 certified beds in Cincinnati, and the staffing numbers are the first thing to look at. Total nurse coverage sits at 3.50 hours per resident day, about 9% under the national average of 3.86, with weekends dipping roughly another 9% below its own weekday levels, so the thinnest coverage lands when families tend to visit. The inspection record shows 40 deficiencies, four tied to abuse, none at the harm or jeopardy level, and the last full inspection was in May 2024. Quality measures score well, but that reflects resident outcomes, not the hands available day to day.
Woods Edge runs on 3.35 nurse hours per resident day, about 13% under the national average, and weekends dip roughly 10% below its own weekday numbers. Staff turnover sits at 61.2%, well above the 45.8% national figure, so the people caring for residents keep changing. The inspection record shows 45 deficiencies, one serious enough to cause harm, plus a $21,645 fine, and the most recent inspection was April 2026. Ownership is a for-profit limited liability company. Quality measures look strong on paper, but the staffing and inspection sides of the federal data tell a different story.
Garden Park runs 60 beds in Cincinnati under corporate ownership, and its staffing numbers are the first thing to notice: 3.22 nurse hours per resident day against a national average of 3.86, with weekends roughly 17% thinner than weekdays. Annual turnover sits at 53.1%, meaning more than half the nursing staff leaves each year. The inspection record shows why that matters, 52 deficiencies on file, three of them abuse-related, and a one-star health inspection rating despite a five-star quality measure score. Those quality numbers come from resident assessments, which can look strong even when the people documenting them are stretched thin. The last inspection was in August 2025, so the record is current. Worth asking about weekend coverage specifically.
Carecore At Margaret Hall runs 99 certified beds under for-profit LLC ownership, and the numbers show a home stretched thin on the people side. Nurses provide 3.38 hours per resident day, roughly 13% under the national average of 3.86, and weekends drop about another 10% below the home's own weekday staffing. Turnover sits at 84.8% against a national 45.8%, nearly double, which means the aides and nurses your family member sees are cycling through fast. The inspection record is where the real concern lives: 34 deficiencies, one at harm or jeopardy level, four tied to abuse, and a one-star health inspection rating from CMS last updated in February 2024. The five-star quality measure score reflects reported care metrics, but staffing and inspections tell the harder story.
Norwood Towers runs a 120-bed for-profit operation where the nurse staffing works out to 3.15 hours per resident per day, roughly 18 percent under the national average, and weekends drop another 14 percent below what the home manages on weekdays. Turnover sits at 62.7 percent against a national 45.8, so the aides and nurses cycling through are often new to the building. The current record carries 37 deficiencies, including one at the harm level and five tied to abuse, with the most recent inspection dated December 16, 2025. Its quality measure score looks strong, but that reflects charted care, not the hands available at 2 a.m.
Veranda Gardens is a 99-bed for-profit home in Cincinnati, and its numbers pull in different directions. The clinical quality measures look strong, but staffing sits at 3.70 hours per resident day, under the national average, and weekends run about 12% thinner than weekdays, which matters when that's when families tend to visit. Staff turnover of 55.1% is well above the 45.8% national figure, so the people providing care keep changing. Inspections tell the harder story: 22 deficiencies on record, two at harm or jeopardy level, one tied to abuse, plus a $30,715 fine. The last inspection was recent, in January 2026.
Montgomery Care Center is a for-profit LLC home with 99 certified beds in Cincinnati. Its aide and nurse hours come to 3.31 per resident day, roughly 14% under the national average, and weekends run about 16% lighter than weekdays. Staff turnover sits at 66.7% against a national 45.8%, which is a lot of retraining and unfamiliar faces.
The inspection record shows 28 deficiencies, one at the harm or jeopardy level, though none abuse-related. The most recent inspection was in December 2024, and CMS gives it 3 of 5 stars for health inspections and 4 for quality measures but only 2 for staffing. Ownership is plain: a limited liability company operating for profit.
Blue Ash runs on thin staffing. At 3.48 nurse hours per resident day, it sits about ten percent under the national average, and weekends drop roughly thirteen percent below its own weekday levels, so the thinnest coverage lands when families tend to visit. The federal staffing rating reflects that. What stands out even more is turnover: 70.4% of nursing staff leaving annually, against a national average near 46%. That rate makes it hard to keep consistent caregivers who know the residents. The record shows 30 deficiencies, including one at the harm level and two tied to abuse, and the last inspection was July 2025. Quality measures score well, but strong numbers on paper and steady hands on the floor are different things.
Edith Lane Of Cincinnati runs 167 certified beds as a for-profit corporation, and its nurse staffing sits at 3.26 hours per resident day, roughly 16% under the national average of 3.86. Weekend coverage dips about 15% below its own weekday level, so the thinnest shifts get even thinner. The inspection record is the harder read: 72 deficiencies currently on file, three at harm or jeopardy level and six tied to abuse, plus two fines totaling $159,338. Its last inspection was April 2025, so the record is recent, not stale. Quality measures score well, but that's a narrow slice of the picture, staffing and survey results are where families should focus when weighing this one.
Wellspring Health Center runs 54 beds in Cincinnati under for-profit LLC ownership, and its nurse staffing sits at 3.67 hours per resident day, about 5% under the national average, with weekends running roughly 10% thinner than weekdays. That gap matters because staffing is thinner exactly when families tend to visit and when backup is hardest to call in. Staff turnover is 58.1% against a national 45.8%, and the inspection record shows 32 deficiencies, two of them serious enough to cause harm or jeopardy. The last inspection was in December 2025, so it's current, and there's one fine on record for $110,468. Quality measures look strong; the inspection and turnover numbers are the ones worth asking about directly.
Burlington House runs 122 certified beds under for-profit LLC ownership in Cincinnati, and the staffing numbers are the first thing to look at. At 3.26 nurse hours per resident day, it sits about 16% under the national average of 3.86, and weekends drop roughly another 10% below its own weekday level, so coverage thins out exactly when families tend to visit. Turnover at 41.5% is slightly better than the 45.8% national figure, which helps. The inspection record is the bigger concern: 31 deficiencies, including 2 at harm or jeopardy level and 3 abuse-related, with the last inspection in May 2024. Quality measure scores look strong, but that record deserves direct questions before you decide.
Lincoln Crawford runs 96 beds under for-profit LLC ownership, and its nurse staffing sits at 3.46 hours per resident day, roughly 10% under the national average, with weekends dropping about 11% below its own weekday coverage. Annual turnover is 55.4% against a national 45.8%, so the staff caring for residents is changing over at a high rate. The inspection record shows 19 deficiencies, including 2 at harm or jeopardy level and 4 tied to abuse; the most recent inspection was August 2025. Quality measures score well, but that sits against a two-out-of-five inspection rating and thin, uneven staffing.
Ayden Healthcare of Madeira runs about 3.07 nursing hours per resident day, roughly a fifth below the national average of 3.86, and weekend coverage dips another 8% below its own weekday level. Staff turnover sits at 65% against a national 45.8%, so the people showing up are frequently new. The current record carries 80 deficiencies, three of them abuse-related, none flagged at harm or jeopardy level, and the last inspection was in December 2025. The 4/5 quality measure score reflects how residents' conditions are tracked, but with 1/5 on both staffing and health inspections, the daily reality is thin coverage and constant churn.
