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.
Indianspring Of Oakley runs 144 certified beds in Cincinnati under for-profit LLC ownership, and the staffing numbers are where the trouble sits. Nurses provide 3.70 hours per resident day, about 4% under the national average, and weekends drop roughly 8% below what the home itself staffs during the week, so the thinnest coverage lands when families tend to visit. Annual turnover of 63% against a 45.8% national rate means aides and nurses cycle through constantly, which matters more than any single number because unfamiliar caregivers miss changes in condition. The record shows 25 deficiencies, including two at harm or jeopardy level and two tied to abuse, plus one fine of $17,345. A recent July 2025 inspection and decent quality scores don't offset that staffing picture.
Harrison Pavilion runs on 3.31 nursing hours per resident day, about 14 percent under the national average, and weekends drop roughly another 15 percent below its own weekday level. That thin coverage shows up in the numbers: 69.3 percent annual turnover, well above the 45.8 percent national figure, and a one-star staffing rating from CMS. The health inspection record is heavier than most, 67 deficiencies, three flagged at harm or jeopardy level, three abuse-related, and the last inspection was September 2025. A four-star quality measure score stands out against all of that, but quality measures come from resident assessments, not from how many hands are on the floor.
St. Theresa Care Center runs on thin staffing, and the numbers show it. Nurses provide about 3.59 hours of care per resident per day, roughly 7 percent under the national average, and weekends drop about 12 percent below what the home manages on weekdays. Annual turnover sits at 70.7 percent against a national 45.8 percent, most of the people caring for your family member will be new to the building within a year or so, and few will stay long.
Its inspection record carries 36 deficiencies, three tied to abuse, though none at the harm or jeopardy level. The last full inspection was June 2025, so the picture is current. Quality measures look better than the floor staffing does, but weekday-to-weekend gaps and constant turnover are what a resident actually feels.
Lakeridge Villa runs about 3.09 nurse hours per resident per day against a national average of 3.86, and weekends drop roughly another 10% below its own weekday staffing. That thin coverage helps explain a 1-out-of-5 staffing rating and a 69.4% annual turnover rate, well above the 45.8% national figure. The inspection record shows 40 deficiencies, including two tied to abuse, though none rose to the harm or jeopardy level. Hamilton County families comparing options should weigh whether the 4-out-of-5 quality measure score holds up when the people delivering that care keep changing.
The Anderson runs about 3.59 nurse hours per resident day, roughly 7% under the national average, and weekend coverage drops another 14% below its own weekday level. That thin schedule shows up in the numbers: annual staff turnover is 58.8% against a national 45.8%, and CMS gives staffing a single star. Inspectors cited 19 deficiencies on the current record, three of them at harm or jeopardy level and one tied to abuse, with two fines totaling $112,473. Ownership is for-profit and individual. The most recent inspection was August 2025, so the record is current rather than stale.
Aventura At West Park runs on thin staffing: 3.69 nurse hours per resident day sits about 4% under the national average, weekends drop roughly 9% below its own weekday levels, and annual turnover hits 68.8% against a national norm of 45.8%. That churn matters more than any single inspection finding. The record backs it up, 41 deficiencies, one serious enough to reach harm or jeopardy, seven tied to abuse, and a $16,801 fine, with the last inspection in April 2024. Corporate for-profit ownership, 125 beds, and a CMS staffing rating of 1 out of 5. What the quality measure score of 4 out of 5 reflects is the clinical data the home reports on its own residents; it doesn't offset what inspectors found or how fast the staff turns over. Ask about direct-care staffing on weekends before you decide anything.
Harmony Court runs on thinner staffing than most homes, 3.50 nurse hours per resident day against a national average of 3.86, with weekends about 10% leaner than weekdays. That matters more when you see turnover at 76.9%, well above the 45.8% national figure, meaning the people caring for residents are frequently new. Its inspection record shows 74 deficiencies, including 2 at harm or jeopardy level and 10 tied to abuse, plus a $100,887 fine. The 5/5 quality measure score reflects charted care indicators, not the day-to-day picture; the 1/5 inspection rating and 2/5 staffing rating, from a for-profit LLC, tell you where the strain actually sits.
Astoria Place Of Cincinnati runs 97 beds under for-profit LLC ownership, and its staffing sits at 3.28 nurse hours per resident day, roughly 15 percent under the national average, with weekends about 10 percent thinner than weekdays. Turnover tells its own story: 66.7 percent of staff leave each year, against a national rate near 46 percent. On inspections it holds a 1-out-of-5 star rating, with 72 deficiencies on record, including 4 at the harm or jeopardy level and 13 tied to abuse. Two fines total $147,294, and CMS has placed it in the Special Focus Facility program for homes with a persistent pattern of poor care.
The Arc At Cincinnati runs 3.56 nurse staffing hours per resident day against a national average of 3.86, and weekends drop about 17% below its own weekday coverage, so the thinnest shifts are when families tend to visit. Annual turnover hits 58.3% compared to 45.8% nationally, meaning many of the people caring for residents are still learning the building. The current inspection record carries 85 deficiencies, including 7 at harm or jeopardy level and 8 tied to abuse, with $233,690 in federal fines. CMS has placed this for-profit LLC home in its Special Focus Facility program, and its last inspection was December 2025.
Liberty Nursing Center of Colerain runs on 3.02 nurse hours per resident day, roughly 22 percent under the national figure of 3.86, and weekends drop about 12 percent from its own weekday level. Turnover sits at 70.4 percent against a national average of 45.8, so the aides and nurses cycling through are largely new to the building. The inspection record shows 45 deficiencies, three involving harm or jeopardy and two tied to abuse, with the most recent inspection in February 2025. It's a 93-bed for-profit run by a corporation, and the low marks on all three CMS ratings reflect conditions that staffing and turnover numbers alone would predict.
