Every Medicare-certified nursing home in Ohio, graded on inspections, staffing, turnover
and enforcement history.
30 homes
in the state sit in the federal Special Focus programme.
Edgewood Manor runs 80 certified beds in Port Clinton under for-profit partnership ownership, and the numbers that stand out most are on the staffing side. At 3.19 nurse hours per resident day, it sits about 17% under the national average, weekend coverage dips roughly 9% below its own weekday level, and 55.4% annual turnover means more than half the staff left within the year. The inspection record shows 33 deficiencies, including one at the harm level and five tied to abuse, with the most recent visit in July 2024.
Saint Luke Lutheran Home is a 166-bed nonprofit in North Canton, but nonprofit status isn't shielding residents here. Nurse staffing sits at 3.71 hours per resident day, under the national average, and weekends run thinner than weekdays. The bigger flag is turnover: 81.7% annually, far above the 45.8% national figure, meaning caregivers are constantly changing. Its inspection record shows 85 deficiencies, four at harm or jeopardy level, seven abuse-related, and one fine near $98,000. CMS has placed it in the Special Focus Facility program, reserved for the poorest performers. The last inspection was January 2023, so that record is getting old, which matters when you're weighing how current the picture really is.
Gardens Of Euclid Beach runs on thin nursing coverage: 3.42 hours per resident day against a national average of 3.86, with weekends dipping about 12% below its own weekday levels. That shortfall shows up in the workforce itself, 71.4% annual turnover, well above the 45.8% national figure. The inspection record is the harder read: 60 deficiencies, two at harm or jeopardy level, two tied to abuse, and a single $200,605 fine, with the most recent inspection in September 2025. A for-profit limited liability company operates the 99-bed home. Its quality measure score looks strong, but staffing and inspection results sit at the bottom of CMS's scale, and those are the measures families feel day to day.
Cardinal Woods runs on 3.02 nurse staffing hours per resident day, roughly 22 percent under the national average of 3.86, and weekends drop about 11 percent below what the home staffs on weekdays. That thin coverage sits alongside a 67 percent annual turnover rate, well above the 45.8 percent national figure, so the aides and nurses at the bedside keep changing. The current inspection record shows 42 deficiencies, five at harm or jeopardy level and eight tied to abuse, with $27,318 in fines and a survey that dates to August 2024. The quality measures look better than the rest, but they don't offset what's happening with staffing and oversight.
Continuing Healthcare At Forest Hill runs 88 certified beds in St. Clairsville under corporate ownership, and the staffing numbers are the first thing to look at. At 3.04 nurse hours per resident day, it sits roughly 21 percent under the national average of 3.86, and weekends drop about 11 percent below its own weekday level. That thin coverage shows up in the federal staffing rating of 1 out of 5, and turnover runs 56.3 percent against a national 45.8 percent, more than half the nursing staff leaving in a year. The current record carries 45 deficiencies, two of them serious enough to involve harm or jeopardy. Its last inspection was in January 2026.
University Manor runs on 3.01 nurse staffing hours per resident per day, about 22 percent under the national average of 3.86, and weekends dip roughly 6 percent below its own weekdays, so coverage is thinnest exactly when families tend to visit. Its inspection record carries 47 deficiencies, including two at the harm or jeopardy level and six tied to abuse, plus $32,394 in fines. Staff turnover sits at 47.8 percent against a national 45.8, and the last inspection was December 5, 2024. As a nonprofit corporation, it isn't chasing shareholder returns, but that structure hasn't translated into stronger numbers here.
Altercare Newark South runs 47 beds in Licking County under corporate ownership, and the staffing numbers are where the trouble shows. At 3.43 nurse hours per resident day, it sits about 11% under the national average, weekends dip another 11% below its own weekdays, and turnover hits 66.7% against a national 45.8%, so the people caring for residents keep changing, and there are fewer of them on Saturdays and Sundays. That staffing pattern earned a 1 out of 5 from CMS. Inspectors logged 24 deficiencies, two serious enough to involve harm or jeopardy, plus two fines totaling $252,477. The most recent inspection was in May 2025. Resident care measures score well; the workforce behind them is the open question.
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.
Avenue Care and Rehabilitation Center is a for-profit, limited-liability operation in Warrensville Heights with 97 certified beds, and its staffing numbers tell a hard story. Nurses provide 3.58 hours per resident day, roughly 7% under the national average, and weekend coverage drops about 9% below the home's own weekday level. Annual turnover sits at 67.5%, well above the 45.8% national figure, meaning the people caring for residents are constantly changing. The inspection record is heavier still: 53 deficiencies, including 3 at harm or jeopardy level and 2 abuse-related, with $34,146 in fines across two penalties. Federal ratings put staffing and health inspections at 1 out of 5 stars each, though quality measures score 4. The last inspection was August 13, 2025.
Twinsburg Post Acute runs 114 certified beds under corporate for-profit ownership, and the numbers that stand out most are on the staffing side. Nurse coverage sits at 3.56 hours per resident day, roughly 8% under the national average, and weekends drop about 10% below what the home staffs on weekdays, so coverage thins out right when families tend to visit. Annual turnover of 64.3% is well above the 45.8% national figure, which means aides and nurses are cycling through regularly. The inspection record is the heavier concern: 73 deficiencies, seven of them serious enough to involve harm or jeopardy, plus a $70,756 fine and a one-star health inspection rating. The most recent inspection was March 2024.
Hudson Elms runs on 3.17 nursing hours per resident day, roughly 18% under the national average, and weekend coverage drops another 15% below its own weekday level. Staff turnover sits at 76.3% against a national 45.8%, meaning most of the people caring for residents weren't there a year ago.
The inspection record backs that up: 45 deficiencies, including two at the harm or jeopardy level and six tied to abuse, with the last inspection in June 2023. Corporate ownership and one $17,610 fine round out the picture. Quality measure scores look strong on paper, but that's family-reported data, and it's hard to see how it holds up when the floor staff keeps changing.
The Villa at Marymount runs 130 beds in Garfield Heights under for-profit LLC ownership, and its state inspection history is the part I'd weigh hardest. Twenty-six deficiencies sit on the current record, four of them serious enough to involve actual harm or jeopardy to residents, plus one tied to abuse. Two fines total $83,603. Staffing averages 4.03 nurse hours per resident day, a bit above the national figure, but weekends drop roughly 16% below the home's own weekday coverage. Annual turnover is 63.1% against a national average near 46%, meaning most of the people caring for your family member are new. The last inspection was March 2025. If you're considering this one, ask specifically how weekends and evenings are staffed.
Jag Healthcare Mansfield runs on 3.15 nurse hours per resident day, roughly 19 percent under the national figure, and weekends dip another 12 percent below what it manages on weekdays. Staff turnover sits at 53.7 percent against a national average of 45.8 percent, so the people caring for residents keep changing. The inspection record shows 58 deficiencies, including one at the harm level and four tied to abuse, plus a $130,240 fine. Federal ratings put staffing and health inspections at one star each. It's a 66-bed for-profit corporate home last inspected in July 2025. The pattern here is thin coverage, heavy turnover, and repeated citations, worth weighing if you're considering this one.
New Lebanon Rehabilitation and Healthcare Center runs on 2.99 nurse hours per resident day, roughly a quarter below the national average, and weekend coverage drops further below its own weekday level. Staff turnover sits at 58.9% against a 45.8% national figure, so the people caring for residents are changing often. Its inspection record carries 63 deficiencies, including two at the harm or jeopardy level and one tied to abuse, plus a $96,413 fine. Quality measure scores look strong, but those depend on the staff actually present to document and deliver care. This is a for-profit corporate home with 120 beds; the September 2025 inspection is recent, and the pattern in the numbers is consistent.
Buckeye Terrace runs 70 certified beds in Westerville under for-profit LLC ownership, and its nurse staffing sits at 3.18 hours per resident day, roughly 18 percent under the national average of 3.86. Weekends dip about 5 percent below its own weekday numbers. Annual turnover hits 64.5 percent, well above the 45.8 percent national figure, which means the aides and nurses caring for residents are, on average, fairly new to the building. The health inspection record shows 70 deficiencies, including one at the harm level and seven tied to abuse, with a single fine of $140,849. Inspectors were last on site in December 2025.
The Gardens of St. Francis runs on 1.48 nurse staffing hours per resident day, roughly 62% below the national average, and weekend coverage drops about 15% below what it manages on weekdays. Turnover sits at 65.6% against a national rate of 45.8%, so a large share of the staff you'd meet is relatively new. The record shows 40 deficiencies, including two at the harm or jeopardy level and one tied to abuse, plus a $45,250 fine. Inspections are recent, and the quality measure score is strong, but that staffing number is the one worth weighing hardest.
Wesleyan Village runs 3.42 nurse hours per resident per day, about 11% under the national average, and weekends drop roughly 12% below its own weekday staffing. That thin coverage is paired with 66% annual turnover against a national 45.8%, so the people at the bedside keep changing. The inspection record is the harder problem: 54 deficiencies, six at harm or jeopardy level, four tied to abuse, and $219,798 in fines across two penalties, with the most recent inspection in February 2025. A five-star quality measure score sits alongside one-star inspection and staffing ratings, which is worth asking about directly, since quality scores depend on the staff actually documenting and delivering care.
Embassy of Woodview runs 95 certified beds in Columbus under corporate for-profit ownership, and the numbers tell a mixed story. Nurse staffing sits at 3.13 hours per resident day, roughly 19% under the national average, and weekends run about 5% thinner than weekdays, with annual turnover at 68.9% against a national 45.8%. The inspection record is heavy: 47 deficiencies, including two at harm or jeopardy level and two tied to abuse, with $151,043 in fines and a May 2025 inspection. Quality measures score well, but that's largely self-reported data, while staffing and inspections come from what surveyors actually found.
East Park Care Center runs on 3.08 nursing hours per resident day, roughly a fifth below the national average, and weekend coverage slips about 9% below what it manages on weekdays. Staff turnover sits at 72.1% against a national rate near 46%, so the people around your family member change often. On its current record: 44 deficiencies, three involving harm or jeopardy, three tied to abuse, and $84,417 in fines across two penalties. The last inspection was in late October 2024. The five-star quality measure score reflects resident assessments, but the one-star inspection and staffing ratings describe what surveyors found and how thin the floor coverage is.
Springfield Nursing & Independent Living runs on 3.10 nurse hours per resident per day, roughly a fifth below the national average of 3.86, and weekend coverage drops about 9% below its own weekday level. Staff turnover sits at 78.6% against a national 45.8%, meaning most of the people caring for residents this year likely won't be there next year. The inspection record shows 50 deficiencies, including one at the harm or jeopardy level and three tied to abuse, plus an $85,067 fine. The last inspection was May 2024, so that record is fairly recent. Quality measures score well, but staffing and inspections tell the harder story.
