Nursing homes across Coos County, Oregon, graded on the federal inspection
record, nurse staffing and staff turnover. County rank is shown on each home's profile.
Avamere Rehabilitation of Coos Bay runs a 92-bed for-profit home where the day-to-day staffing looks better than the paperwork suggests. Nurses provide 4.59 hours per resident day, roughly 19 percent more than the national average, and turnover sits at 34.2 percent against a national 45.8, meaning caregivers here tend to stick around longer than elsewhere. Weekends run about 13 percent leaner than weekdays, so ask how that plays out on a Sunday. The concern is the inspection record: 45 deficiencies, three at harm or jeopardy level, four tied to abuse, and a $15,593 fine, with the last visit in August 2025. Staffing is the strength; oversight history is the question.
Life Care Center Of Coos Bay runs 4.76 nurse hours per resident day, about 23% above the national average, and weekends dip roughly 14% below its own weekday level. The staffing is there on paper, but 58.7% annual turnover means a lot of those hours are worked by people still learning the building, and it's a for-profit LLC operation. The inspection record is where the real trouble sits: 45 deficiencies, two at harm or jeopardy level, six tied to abuse, and a $62,868 fine. The most recent inspection was December 2025, so the picture is current, not stale. Strong daily coverage, shaky consistency and follow-through.
Myrtle Point Rehabilitation & Care runs high on nurse hours, about 5.06 per resident per day, roughly a third above the national average, and CMS gives it 4 of 5 stars for staffing. That number wobbles on weekends, though, dropping about 14% below its own weekday level, and annual turnover sits at 67.2% against a 45.8% national average, so the people providing that care keep changing. The inspection record is where things get serious: 71 deficiencies, including 11 tied to abuse and 3 at harm or jeopardy level, plus a $59,140 fine. Its most recent inspection was April 2026, and CMS rates its health inspection performance 1 out of 5.
