Nursing homes across Summit County, Ohio, graded on the federal inspection
record, nurse staffing and staff turnover. County rank is shown on each home's profile.
Momentous Health At Richfield has 72 certified beds and an individual for-profit owner, and the numbers here are hard to get past. Nurse staffing sits at 3.23 hours per resident day against a national average of 3.86, roughly 16% below what residents elsewhere typically receive, while annual turnover hits 64% compared with 45.8% nationally, meaning most of the people providing daily care are new to the building within a year. The deficiency record is the bigger problem: 103 total, including 3 at the harm or jeopardy level and 8 abuse-related. CMS has fined this home $158,534 and placed it in the Special Focus Facility program, which is reserved for the homes with the most persistent problems.
Continuing Healthcare Of Cuyahoga Falls runs 98 beds under for-profit LLC ownership, and the staffing numbers are what stands out first: 3.46 nurse hours per resident day against a national average of 3.86, with weekends running about 7% thinner than weekdays. That gap matters when you're deciding which day to visit. The inspection record is heavier still, 93 deficiencies, two at harm or jeopardy level, seven tied to abuse, and four fines totaling $178,725. Annual turnover sits at 77.1% against a national 45.8%, meaning the aide who knows your mother this month may not be there the next. CMS has placed it in the Special Focus Facility program, a designation reserved for homes with a persistent pattern of poor care.
The Merriman runs on 3.17 nurse hours per resident day, roughly 18% under the national average, and weekend coverage drops about 12% below its own weekday levels. Staff turnover sits at 64.9% against a national 45.8%, so the people caring for residents are, more often than not, new to the building. Its inspection record carries 65 deficiencies, three of them at the harm or jeopardy level and six tied to abuse; two fines total $134,475, with the most recent inspection in January 2025. A 4/5 on quality measures doesn't offset a 1/5 on staffing and 1/5 on inspections. The corporate owners profit while the floor stays thin.
