Here are 11 Nursing Homes in Columbiana County, OH
Nursing homes across Columbiana County, Ohio, graded on the federal inspection
record, nurse staffing and staff turnover. County rank is shown on each home's profile.
The Orchards of East Liverpool runs 50 beds under for-profit LLC ownership, and its nurse staffing sits at 4.06 hours per resident day, roughly 5% above the national average, though weekends drop about 9% below what the home staffs on weekdays. Staff turnover is 37.2%, which is actually better than the 45.8% national figure, so the people caring for residents tend to stick around longer than at the typical home. Where it gets murkier is the inspection record: 33 deficiencies on file, including one at the harm level and four tied to abuse. The most recent inspection was December 17, 2025, so that picture is current. Strong quality measures and above-average staffing, weighed against a deficiency count worth asking about directly.
Parkside runs leaner on nursing hours than most homes, 3.37 per resident day against a national average of 3.86, and weekends get thinner still, dropping roughly a fifth below its own weekday staffing. What stands out in the other direction is retention: turnover at 29.6% is well below the 45.8% national figure, which suggests people tend to stay. The inspection record shows 30 deficiencies, none rising to actual harm or jeopardy, but five tied to abuse, a category worth asking about directly. State inspectors were last in during August 2025, so the picture is current.
Auburn Skilled Nursing and Rehab runs 44 certified beds in Salem, under for-profit LLC ownership. Nurse staffing sits at 3.42 hours per resident per day, roughly 11% under the national average, and weekends drop about 16% below the home's own weekday level, so coverage thins out right when families tend to visit. Turnover is the bright spot: 30.8% against a national average of 45.8%, meaning the aides and nurses here tend to stay. The inspection record shows 20 deficiencies, none at the harm level and none abuse-related, with the most recent inspection in September 2025. Quality measures score well; staffing is where the numbers lag.
Blossom Nursing And Rehab Center runs 3.37 nurse hours per resident day, about 13 percent under the national average, and weekends dip roughly 13 percent below its own weekday coverage. Turnover sits at 37.7 percent, better than the 45.8 percent national figure, so the staff who are there tend to stay. The inspection record shows 22 deficiencies, one at the harm level and none related to abuse, with the most recent survey in December 2025. For a 100-bed for-profit corporate home, the pattern is decent care with thinner daily staffing, especially on weekends.
Calcutta Health Care Center runs 97 certified beds under corporate ownership, and the staffing numbers are the strongest part of the picture: 3.91 nurse hours per resident day, just above the national average, with a 4/5 staffing rating and turnover at 37.1%, better than the 45.8% national figure. But weekends run about 22% leaner than weekdays, which matters when a fall or infection happens on a Sunday. The inspection record is the real concern: 31 deficiencies on file, including 2 at harm or jeopardy level and 3 tied to abuse, with a 1/5 health inspection rating. The most recent inspection was June 2024. Quality measures score well at 4/5, but that gap between strong routine numbers and a troubled inspection history is worth asking about directly.
Salem North Healthcare Center runs 86 certified beds under corporate ownership, and its staffing tells the clearest story here: 3.18 nurse hours per resident day against a national average of 3.86, with weekends running about 12% thinner than weekdays. That's roughly 18% less direct nursing time than the typical home, which is why CMS gives it 2 out of 5 stars on staffing even though its quality measure score is perfect and its inspection rating sits at 3. Turnover of 38.2% actually beats the national 45.8%, so the problem isn't retention so much as how few hours are scheduled in the first place. The record shows 21 deficiencies, including one at the harm level and one abuse-related, plus a $23,163 fine; the most recent inspection was February 12, 2026.
Covington Skilled Nursing & Rehab Center runs 65 certified beds in East Palestine under corporate for-profit ownership, and its staffing is the number that stands out, 3.03 nurse hours per resident day, roughly 22% under the national average, which is why CMS gives it only two of five stars on staffing. Turnover, at 39.3%, is actually better than the 45.8% national figure, and weekend coverage holds slightly above its own weekday level, so the shortfall isn't about constant churn. The inspection record is current, recent, and clean at the harm level, with 22 deficiencies but none causing injury and two tied to abuse.
Circle of Care sits in Salem with 55 certified beds under for-profit partnership ownership, and the nurse staffing number stands out first: 5.15 hours per resident day, roughly a third more than the national average. That's real coverage, though weekends run about 15 percent thinner than weekdays, and turnover sits at 47.3 percent, slightly worse than the 45.8 percent national figure, so the good staffing headline comes with a churn problem underneath it. The harder issue is the inspection record: 42 deficiencies, including two at harm or jeopardy level and two tied to abuse, plus a single $179,235 fine. The most recent inspection was April 2025, so this is current, not stale history.
The Vista Center in Lisbon runs on thinner nursing coverage than most homes, about 3.57 nurse hours per resident each day, a bit under the national figure, and weekends dip further below its own weekday pace. That strain shows in the numbers: 61% of staff left over the past year, well above the 45.8% national average, and its staffing rating sits at the bottom of CMS's scale. Inspections tell a similar story. The current record carries 62 deficiencies, including three tied to abuse, though none reached the level of actual harm or jeopardy. The last survey was January 2025. Quality measures score well, but that's where the good news mostly stops.
Valley Oaks runs on 3.21 nurse hours per resident day, roughly 17% under the national average of 3.86, and that thin margin holds steady on weekends, so there's no extra coverage when families visit. The bigger strain is turnover: 88.1% of nursing staff left last year, nearly double the national rate of 45.8%. Consistent caregivers are hard to keep when nearly everyone is new. The record isn't alarming on safety, 14 deficiencies, none causing harm, none tied to abuse, and the most recent inspection was March 2026. Quality measures score well, but that staffing number sits at the bottom of CMS's scale, and it's the piece families feel daily.
Salem West Healthcare Center runs 2.88 nurse hours per resident day against a national average of 3.86, roughly a quarter less hands-on time, and weekends dip another 11% below its own weekdays. Annual turnover sits at 56.1%, well above the 45.8% national figure, so the people left are often the newest. The inspection record is the real problem: 52 deficiencies, two at harm or jeopardy level, five tied to abuse, and a one-star health inspection rating. CMS has placed it in the Special Focus Facility program, its most serious watch list for homes with a pattern of persistent problems. A five-star quality measure score doesn't offset that, especially since those measures lean on self-reported data.
