Nursing homes across Lane County, Oregon, graded on the federal inspection
record, nurse staffing and staff turnover. County rank is shown on each home's profile.
Marquis Springfield runs 5.26 nursing hours per resident day, roughly a third more than the national average, and its 29.7% turnover is well under the 45.8% most homes see. That staffing depth is the strongest thing in the numbers, though weekends thin out about 12% from weekday levels. What holds it back is the inspection record: 33 deficiencies, including three tied to abuse, with no harm-level findings, and the most recent state visit was January 2026. Ownership is corporate for-profit. The care hours and low turnover point to a home that keeps its people; the deficiency list is the part worth asking about directly.
Valley West runs on numbers that don't agree with each other. Nurse staffing sits at 4.41 hours per resident day, roughly 14% above the national average, and weekend coverage dips only about 10% below its own weekday level, better than many homes manage. Turnover is 34.9%, well under the 45.8% national figure, which suggests people stay. But the inspection record is the problem: 56 deficiencies overall, including 2 at the harm level and 4 tied to abuse, with a 2-out-of-5 health inspection rating. That's a corporate-owned building with a recent inspection and real quality marks on the clinical side, held back by a compliance history families should read closely.
Avamere Riverpark Of Eugene runs 119 certified beds under corporate for-profit ownership, and the staffing picture is genuinely strong: 5.25 nurse hours per resident day, roughly a third more than the national average, with turnover at 41.1%, better than the 45.8% norm. Weekends dip about 10% below weekday coverage, which is worth asking about. The catch sits in inspections. A 2/5 health inspection rating and 47 deficiencies on record, two of them serious enough to reach harm or jeopardy, weigh against the 4/5 marks for quality measures and staffing. No abuse citations, and the most recent inspection was March 2026, so the record is current. Strong day-to-day care numbers, uneven regulatory history, that's the tradeoff here.
Creekside runs about 4.88 nurse hours per resident per day, roughly a quarter more staffing than the national average, and its inspection record shows nine deficiencies with none rising to harm or jeopardy and nothing abuse-related. Weekend coverage drops about 12% from weekday levels, which is common but worth asking about if your family visits Saturdays. Staff turnover sits at 48.1%, slightly above the national 45.8%, high, though close to typical for the industry. The last inspection was May 2026, so the record is recent. Corporate for-profit ownership is the main thing to weigh against those otherwise solid numbers.
Avamere Rehabilitation of Junction City runs 53 beds under corporate ownership, and its nurse staffing sits at 4.75 hours per resident day, roughly 23% above the national average, with weekend coverage dipping about 7% below its own weekday levels. The tradeoff shows up in its record: 35 deficiencies, including 6 tied to abuse and 3 serious enough to put residents in harm's way, plus one fine of $8,678. Staff turnover of 45.6% lands right at the national figure, so continuity isn't a strength here. Your last inspection was fairly recent, in July 2025, and the quality measure rating is strong, but those harm-level and abuse-related findings are the numbers worth asking about directly.
Creswell Post Acute runs a for-profit limited liability operation with 76 certified beds, and the staffing is the clearest strength: 5.04 nurse hours per resident day against a national average of 3.86. That's roughly 31% more hands-on time than typical, though weekend coverage dips about 8% below its own weekday level, so care can thin out on Saturdays and Sundays. Turnover sits at 44%, essentially in line with the 45.8% national figure. The tension is in inspections, 50 deficiencies on record, two tied to abuse, with a 2-out-of-5 health inspection rating, even though none reached harm or jeopardy level. The most recent inspection was January 30, 2026.
Hillside Heights runs on more nursing hours than most places, 4.74 per resident day, roughly a quarter above the national average, which is the main reason its staffing rating holds at 4 out of 5. That cushion thins on weekends, when coverage drops about 13% below the home's own weekday level, and turnover sits at 51.8%, higher than the 45.8% national figure. The inspection record shows 43 deficiencies, none at the harm or jeopardy level, though one is abuse-related; the last survey was January 30, 2026, so the picture is current. Quality measures land mid-range at 3 out of 5. Ownership is a for-profit limited liability company.
Cascade Manor runs on 8.31 nurse hours per resident day, roughly double the national average of 3.86, a striking number for a 32-bed nonprofit home, and one that likely explains why its staffing rating holds at 4 out of 5. The trade-off shows up in its record: 16 deficiencies, two of them serious enough to cite harm or jeopardy, plus one $10,033 fine. Nothing on file involves abuse. Weekend staffing dips about 9% below weekdays, so care thins out slightly when families tend to visit. The last inspection was April 2026; state surveyors have seen this building recently.
Regency Florence runs 5.08 nurse hours per resident day, well above the 3.86 national average, and weekends dip about 13% below its own weekday staffing. The corporate-owned home holds a 4/5 inspection rating from its most recent survey on April 24, 2026, but the record shows 30 deficiencies, including one at the harm level and five tied to abuse. Staff turnover sits at 51.4%, above the 45.8% national figure.
The quality measure rating is 2/5, so the clinical numbers don't match the staffing picture. One fine of $7,443 is on file. Plenty of nursing hours and a recent clean-looking inspection star, against a deficiency list and turnover rate your family will want to ask about directly.
Cottage Grove Post Acute runs on 4.64 nurse hours per resident day, roughly a fifth more staffing than the typical American nursing home, and that shows up in a four-star staffing rating. Weekend coverage dips about 12% below its own weekday levels, so ask how that plays out on a Saturday night. Turnover sits at 47%, just above the national figure, which means a good share of the people caring for your family member are still new. The inspection record is mixed: 26 deficiencies, including two at the harm level and two tied to abuse, one fine of $20,670, and a three-star health inspection rating.
Avamere Rehabilitation of Eugene runs a 92-bed for-profit operation, and the staffing numbers are its clearest strength: 5.09 nurse hours per resident day, roughly a third more than the national average, with turnover at 36.5% against a 45.8% national figure. Weekends dip about 11% below its own weekday coverage, so care thinness is a real but modest concern. The inspection record is where the story turns, a 1-out-of-5 health inspection rating, 54 deficiencies on file including one at harm or jeopardy level and six tied to abuse, plus a $36,472 fine. A recent January 2026 inspection means the record is current, not stale. Strong staffing is doing real work here, but it is carrying a lot of regulatory weight.
Green Valley runs 89 deficiencies on its current record, and four of those are abuse-related, with two more cited at the harm or jeopardy level. That's the number that should stop you before anything else does. The staffing picture is mixed: 4.32 nurse hours per resident day sits about 12% above the national average, but weekends drop roughly 13% below what the home staffs on weekdays, and turnover is 53.2% against a national 45.8%. A one-star health inspection rating and a $53,024 fine round out the record from a February 2026 inspection. The 4/5 quality measure score reflects charted care, not the supervision your family member would actually receive on a Saturday.
South Hills Rehabilitation Center has more nursing hours per resident than most homes in the country, 4.72 versus a national average of 3.86, but that staffing thins out on weekends, dropping roughly 13% below its own weekday level. The bigger issue is who's providing that care: 67.5% of staff turned over in a year, well above the 45.8% national figure, and CMS has placed this for-profit home in its Special Focus Facility program. Its inspection record shows 66 deficiencies, including 9 tied to abuse and 2 serious enough to cause harm, plus $108,108 in fines. A 1-out-of-5 inspection rating and a recent August 2025 visit round out a record worth reading closely before you decide.
