Mount St Rita Health Centre runs about 3.99 nurse hours per resident day, a bit above the national average, and its weekend staffing holds within roughly 8% of weekday levels. Staff turnover sits at 39%, lower than the 45.8% national figure. The trouble is the inspection record: 27 deficiencies, three at harm or jeopardy level and one abuse-related, with five fines totaling $274,749. The most recent inspection was December 2025, so the findings are current. Stronger staffing and steadier retention are real positives here, but the harm-level citations and the fine total are what pull the overall picture down to a middling grade. Ask about the abuse-related deficiency and the plan to fix it.

St Antoine runs 260 beds as a nonprofit, and its staffing sits right at the national average, 3.88 nurse hours per resident day against 3.86. The catch is weekends, when hours drop about 13% below the home's own weekday level. Turnover at 35.9% is meaningfully better than the 45.8% national figure, which matters for continuity of care. What pulls the record down is inspection history: 22 deficiencies on file, five at harm or jeopardy level and two tied to abuse, plus three fines totaling $38,519. The most recent inspection was January 30, 2026, so the picture is current, not stale. Strong staffing numbers, but the harm-level findings are the part a family should ask about directly.

Pawtucket Falls Healthcare Center runs 154 certified beds under for-profit LLC ownership, and its current inspection record carries 45 deficiencies, four at the harm or jeopardy level, two tied to abuse, along with $241,130 in CMS fines across two actions. That inspection history is the sharpest fact here, and the most recent survey, from December 2024, is recent enough to treat as current. Staffing sits at 3.82 nurse hours per resident day, just under the national average of 3.86, with weekends running about 4% lighter than weekdays; turnover of 30.1% is notably better than the 45.8% national figure. Quality measures score well, but the abuse and harm findings are what a family should ask about directly.

Stillwater runs 3.45 nurse hours per resident day, about 11% under the national average, and weekends drop roughly 12% below its own weekday staffing. That's the pattern worth asking about: coverage is thinnest exactly when families tend to visit and when backup is hardest to arrange. Turnover sits at 36.9%, better than the 45.8% national figure, so the people who stay tend to stay. The inspection record shows 22 deficiencies, one serious enough to reach harm or jeopardy level, though none involve abuse. A March 2025 inspection is recent, and the 4-star health inspection rating with 3 stars each for staffing and quality measures reflects a home that's generally sound but not generously staffed.

Harris Health Care Center North runs 32 beds in Central Falls, and its nurse staffing comes in at 2.32 hours per resident day, roughly 40 percent under the national average of 3.86. Weekends drop about 17 percent below what the home staffs on weekdays, so coverage thins out right when families tend to visit. The inspection record is where the real weight sits: 37 deficiencies, including two tied to abuse and one at the harm level, with a single fine of $10,033 and a survey as recent as December 2025. Turnover at 34.6 percent is actually better than the 45.8 percent national figure, which suggests the problem isn't retention so much as how few hours each resident gets.

Heritage Hills is a 100-bed for-profit home in Smithfield, and the split in its federal ratings tells the story. The quality measures look strong, but the health inspection side sits at the bottom of the scale, with 70 deficiencies on record, three of them serious enough to involve harm or jeopardy, and three tied to abuse. Nurse staffing runs slightly under the national average at 3.74 hours per resident day, thinner on weekends, though turnover at 39.8% is actually better than the 45.8% norm. A single fine of $8,827 and a September 2025 inspection round out the picture. The quality numbers and the inspection numbers don't agree, and you should ask which one matches what you see on a visit.

Avalon Nursing Home is a small for-profit operation in Warwick, just 31 beds, and its staffing rating sits at the bottom of the federal scale, which tells you the people working there are stretched thin relative to what CMS expects. The inspection record backs that up: 27 deficiencies, including one at the level where a resident was actually harmed or put in immediate jeopardy, plus four tied to abuse. The last full inspection was in May 2025, so the picture is fairly current. Quality measures land below average too. For a family weighing this home, the staffing number and those abuse-related findings are the two things worth asking administrators about directly before making any decision.

Crestwood Nursing & Rehabilitation Center in Warren is a for-profit corporation home with 76 certified beds, and its inspection record is genuinely clean, four deficiencies on file, none at the harm or jeopardy level, nothing abuse-related, and a fresh survey from February 2026. The staffing picture is less reassuring. At 3.62 nurse hours per resident day, it sits about 6% under the national average of 3.86, and weekends drop roughly 15% below its own weekday level, which matters for families who visit Saturday and Sunday. Quality measures land at 2 out of 5 stars while inspections score 5. That split is the real story: strong oversight, thinner hands-on care.

West Shore Health Center runs on thin nurse staffing for a 145-bed building, 3.07 hours per resident day, roughly 20 percent under the national average, and weekends drop another 11 percent below its own weekday levels. That's the number I'd ask about first, because it's the one residents feel. The good news sits in retention: 29.4 percent turnover is well below the 45.8 percent national figure, so the aides and nurses who are there tend to stay. Its last inspection was June 2025 and turned up 13 deficiencies, none at the harm level, though one was abuse-related. Corporate-owned and for-profit, with steady survey results but staffing that never quite reaches average.

Golden Crest runs 3.73 nurse hours per resident day against a national average of 3.86, and weekends dip roughly 8% below its own weekday coverage, worth asking about if your relative needs help on Saturdays and Sundays. Turnover sits at 45.2%, almost exactly the national figure, so continuity of caregivers isn't unusually bad here. What pulls the record down is the inspection history: 27 deficiencies, two of them at harm or jeopardy level and one abuse-related, plus two fines totaling $70,868. The most recent inspection was December 2025, so the picture is current. A 152-bed for-profit corporate home with solid star ratings but real harm-level findings on the books.

Elderwood of Scallop Shell runs 80 beds under for-profit LLC ownership, and its staffing sits at 3.58 nurse hours per resident day, roughly 7% under the national average of 3.86. That gap widens on weekends, when coverage drops about 13% below the home's own weekday level, and annual turnover of 55.9% means more than half the nursing staff leaves each year, against a national rate of 45.8%. The inspection record is where the real concern sits: 25 deficiencies, six of them serious enough to reach harm or jeopardy level, and two fines totaling $89,882. The most recent inspection was November 2025, so that record is current.

Village House runs on a thinner nursing staff than most places, about 3.35 hours per resident day against a national average near 3.86, and weekends get leaner still, roughly 8% below its own weekday coverage. What stands out in the other direction is retention: 28.6% turnover is well under the 45.8% national figure, so the aides and nurses you'd meet have tended to stay. The inspection record is recent and largely clean, with 12 deficiencies, one serious enough to reach harm level, and a single $8,018 fine. Quality measures are where this home slips, though; the clinical outcomes data is markedly weaker than its staffing and inspection results suggest.

St. Clare Home in Newport runs a nonprofit operation with 50 certified beds, and its nurse staffing sits at 4.59 hours per resident day, roughly 19% above the national average of 3.86. That's a real advantage, though weekend coverage drops about 12% below its own weekday levels, so care isn't perfectly even across the week. Staff turnover lands at 56.3%, well above the 45.8% national figure, which matters for consistency. The health inspection rating is strong at 4 out of 5, with the most recent inspection in April 2025, but 28 deficiencies are on record, including one at the harm level. The quality measure rating comes in at just 1 out of 5, a gap worth asking about directly.

Lakeside Nursing in North Kingstown runs a for-profit operation under a limited liability company, and the numbers show a home that inspects well but staffs thin. Nurse coverage sits at 3.20 hours per resident day, roughly 17 percent under the national average, and weekends drop about 12 percent below its own weekday levels, so the thinnest coverage lands when families tend to visit. Turnover at 40.8 percent is actually better than the 45.8 percent national figure, which matters for consistency of care. Inspections are recent, April 2025, with a 4-star health inspection rating, but the record carries 18 deficiencies, including one at the harm level and one abuse-related, plus a $14,433 fine.

Grace Barker Nursing Center sits at 86 beds in Warren, run by a for-profit corporation. Its nurse staffing works out to 3.87 hours per resident day, which barely edges past the national average of 3.86, essentially a tie. Weekends run about 17 percent thinner than weekdays, so coverage depends on when you visit. Turnover is 37.9 percent, lower than the national 45.8 percent, meaning aides and nurses stick around longer than at many places. But the inspection record carries 14 deficiencies, four of them at harm or jeopardy level and two tied to abuse, plus a single $114,806 fine. Staffing looks steady; the care problems are documented.

Bethany Home of Rhode Island runs a 33-bed nonprofit operation in Providence, and the staffing numbers are genuinely better than most: 4.84 nurse hours per resident day, roughly a quarter above the national average. But two things undercut that. Weekend staffing drops about 16% below its own weekday level, so the care you'd get on a Saturday isn't the care described in the average. And turnover sits at 100%, every position turns over in a year, against a national rate near 46%. That churn, plus 19 deficiencies on the current record (one at harm level) and a $12,735 fine, explains why the inspection and quality ratings land mid-range despite the healthy staffing figure.

Adviniacare Waterview Villas runs 132 beds under for-profit LLC ownership, and its nurse staffing sits at 3.14 hours per resident day, roughly 19% under the 3.86 national average. Weekends drop about 6% below its own weekday level, so coverage thins out exactly when families tend to visit. Turnover is 38.4%, which is actually better than the 45.8% national figure, so the problem isn't retention so much as raw hours on the floor. The inspection record is where it gets harder to ignore: 25 deficiencies, 5 serious enough to involve harm or jeopardy, and two fines totaling $99,003. A 2-out-of-5 inspection rating with a March 2026 survey date tells you regulators have found real problems here.

Morgan Health Center runs 120 certified beds under corporate ownership, and the staffing numbers are where the trouble shows up first. Nurses provide 3.75 hours of care per resident per day, a bit under the national average, and weekends drop roughly 17% below what the home staffs on weekdays, so the thinnest coverage lands when families are most likely to visit. Turnover sits at 43.8%, slightly better than the national figure, which is one small bright spot. The bigger concerns are 27 deficiencies on the current record, including one at the harm level and four tied to abuse, plus two fines totaling $61,780. The most recent inspection was May 2025, so that record is current, not stale.

Westerly Health Center runs lean on nursing hours, 3.05 per resident day against a national average of 3.86, and weekends are thinner still, about 19% below its own weekday coverage. That gap is the main reason its staffing score sits low even though inspections and quality measures both come back strong. Turnover at 42.9% is slightly better than the national 45.8%, and the last inspection in April 2025 is recent. The record isn't spotless: 21 deficiencies, including one at the harm level and one abuse-related, plus a single $8,278 fine. For-profit LLC ownership. If your family member needs steady hands on weekends especially, ask how they cover those shifts.

Adviniacare Pawtucket Pleasant Rehab Center runs 129 certified beds under for-profit LLC ownership, and its staffing numbers are the main thing to know: 3.41 nurse hours per resident day, roughly 12% under the national average, with weekends running about 9% thinner than weekdays. That thin weekend coverage matters because the current inspection record carries 36 deficiencies, three of them serious enough to reach harm or jeopardy level, plus two fines totaling $21,964. Turnover sits at 40.2%, actually better than the 45.8% national figure, so the problem isn't retention so much as how many hands are scheduled. Its last inspection was August 2025, and the quality measure rating is stronger than the staffing picture.
