Nursing homes across Washington County, Ohio, graded on the federal inspection
record, nurse staffing and staff turnover. County rank is shown on each home's profile.
Rockland Ridge runs leaner than the typical American nursing home, 3.60 nurse hours per resident day against a national average of 3.86, with weekends dropping roughly 14% below its own weekday coverage. What stands out is the stability of the workforce: 26.7% annual turnover is well under the 45.8% national figure, which matters because consistent staff tend to know residents' routines and catch changes early. The home's inspection record is clean where it counts, 7 deficiencies on file but none at harm or jeopardy level and none abuse-related, with a November 2025 inspection still recent. Corporate-owned and for-profit, it delivers solid outcomes without extra staffing cushion.
Waterview Pointe runs about 80 beds under corporate ownership in Marietta, and its staffing sits a bit under the national average, 3.68 nurse hours per resident day against 3.86, with weekends running roughly 7% thinner than weekdays. That said, its turnover of 31.7% beats the national 45.8%, which suggests people tend to stay. The inspection record shows 22 deficiencies, none at the harm level, though one is abuse-related, and the most recent inspection was in August 2025, so the picture is fairly current.
Belpre Landing runs 3.66 nurse hours per resident per day, about 5% under the national average of 3.86, and weekends drop roughly 8% below what the home staffs on weekdays. That thinner weekend coverage matters because the record shows 47 deficiencies, including one at the harm or jeopardy level and two tied to abuse. Annual turnover sits at 47.3%, slightly above the national 45.8%, and the health inspection rating is 2 out of 5, though the quality measure score is 4. The last inspection was January 8, 2025, so the picture is current. Corporate-owned, 62 beds.
Arbors At Marietta runs 133 certified beds in Washington County, and the nurse staffing number is genuinely better than most: 4.42 hours per resident day against a national average of 3.86. But look at the weekends, when coverage drops about 13% from its own weekday level, so the hours aren't spread evenly across the week. The inspection record is where the trouble sits, 80 deficiencies on file, including 3 at harm or jeopardy level and 6 tied to abuse, plus a $79,853 fine, with the most recent inspection in April 2025. Staff turnover at 47.2% edges just past the national rate of 45.8%, which matters more in a for-profit building leaning on that staffing margin.
Muskingum Skilled Nursing & Rehabilitation runs on thin staffing: 3.18 nurse hours per resident day, roughly 18% under the national average, and weekends dip about 10% below its own weekday coverage. That shortfall sits alongside a health inspection record of 64 deficiencies, including six at harm or jeopardy level and seven tied to abuse, plus three fines totaling $177,922, and its most recent inspection was May 2026, so the record is current, not stale. Turnover at 38.2% is actually better than the 45.8% national figure, and the quality measure score is strong, but the state survey findings and daily staffing numbers are what a family should weigh hardest here.
Harmar Place in Marietta runs 86 certified beds as a nonprofit, and the numbers raise real questions. Nurse staffing sits at 3.67 hours per resident day, below the national average, and it drops another 12% on weekends, so care gets thinnest exactly when families tend to visit. Staff turnover of 56.1% means more than half the nursing workforce leaves each year, well above the national rate, and that churn shows in the record: 58 deficiencies, including 7 at the harm or jeopardy level and 3 tied to abuse, with two fines totaling $202,275. A recent March 2025 inspection and a 1-star health inspection rating don't offset the 4-star quality measure score.
Marietta Heights runs nurse staffing at 4.16 hours per resident day, roughly 8% above the national average, so the raw coverage number looks fine on paper. But weekends drop about 20% below its own weekday levels, and annual turnover sits at 70.8% against a national 45.8%, meaning the people providing that care are cycling through fast. The record shows 132 deficiencies, 13 of them at harm or jeopardy level and 8 abuse-related, plus $439,979 in CMS fines across four events. That combination landed it in the Special Focus Facility program. If you're considering this home, ask specifically how weekend coverage is staffed and what's changed since the March 2026 inspection.
