Staff turnover sits at 34.7%, well under the 45.8% national figure, which matters for whether your family sees the same faces month to month. The 28 deficiencies on record include one tied to abuse, though none rose to the level of actual harm or jeopardy, and the most recent state inspection came in March 2025.

Cherokee County Nursing Center runs on better-than-average nurse coverage, 4.13 hours per resident day, roughly 7% above the national figure, though weekends dip about 10% below what the home staffs during the week. That's worth knowing if your visits tend to fall on Saturdays or Sundays. The 24 deficiencies on record include two tied to abuse, but none rose to the level of actual harm or jeopardy, and the state's most recent look came in July 2025, so the picture is fairly current. Staff turnover sits at 48.5%, a bit above the 45.8% national rate, which is common in for-profit corporate ownership. Inspections grade well; quality measures land mid-range.
