Harbor Healthcare of Ironton runs 125 certified beds under corporate for-profit ownership, and its staffing sits just under the national average at 3.82 nurse hours per resident day. That thin margin gets thinner on weekends, when coverage drops roughly 10% below the home's own weekday levels, a gap families often notice on Saturday and Sunday. Staff turnover comes in at 43.8%, slightly better than the 45.8% national figure, and the home's quality measure rating is strong. The tension is in the inspection record: 34 deficiencies, two of them serious enough to reach harm or jeopardy level, with the most recent state visit in January 2025.

Sanctuary at Ohio Valley runs 3.43 nurse hours per resident day, roughly 11% under the national average of 3.86, and weekend coverage dips about 9% below its own weekday level. That's the kind of gap families notice on a Sunday afternoon when a call light stays on. Turnover sits at 40.6%, better than the 45.8% national figure, and the non-profit corporation behind it has kept a clean harm record: 11 deficiencies on file, none at the harm or jeopardy level, though one is abuse-related. A March 2025 inspection is recent, and the 4/5 inspection and quality-measure stars suggest the care itself holds up despite thinner staffing than most homes.

Riverview Post Acute runs 100 certified beds in South Point, and the staffing numbers are the first thing worth knowing. At 2.92 nurse hours per resident day, it sits roughly a quarter below the national average of 3.86, and weekends drop about 14% below the home's own weekday level, so the thinnest coverage lands on the days families tend to visit. Turnover is 48.1%, a bit above the national 45.8%. Inspections look better: a 4-out-of-5 health inspection rating, 34 deficiencies on record with two at the harm level and none abuse-related, and a recent survey from September 2025. The gap between decent inspection results and thin daily staffing is the real story here.

Crystal Care of Coal Grove runs 57 certified beds under corporate for-profit ownership, and the staffing numbers are the first thing to notice: 3.16 nurse hours per resident day against a national average of 3.86, with weekends dipping about 9% below its own weekday coverage. Turnover sits at 48.8%, a few points above the national figure, and the CMS staffing rating lands at 1 out of 5. The inspection record shows 25 deficiencies, one serious enough to reach harm or jeopardy level, and a single fine of $159,708, though the most recent inspection was September 2025, so that picture is current, not stale. Quality measures score 5 out of 5, which is a genuine bright spot, but strong clinical metrics don't offset thin daily coverage.
