All 4 Medicare-certified nursing homes in Anderson,
side by side on the things that separate them: how many nursing hours each resident gets, how much of the
staff leaves each year, and what inspectors found on their last visit.
Richard M Campbell Veterans Nursing Home runs 220 certified beds in Anderson under state government ownership, and its health inspection record is genuinely strong, a 4/5 star rating with the last full inspection in December 2025, so nothing here is stale. The catch is staffing: 3.43 nurse hours per resident day sits about 11% under the national average, and weekends drop roughly 20% below what the home itself staffs on weekdays, which is when families tend to visit and notice. Turnover at 42.1% is slightly better than the national 45.8%, but six deficiencies sit on the current record, including two at the harm level and one tied to abuse.
Nhc Healthcare - Anderson runs 290 certified beds under for-profit LLC ownership, and its health inspection record is the strongest part of the picture, six deficiencies on file, none at the harm or jeopardy level, though one is abuse-related. The staffing numbers are where it thins out: 3.58 nurse hours per resident day sits about 7% under the national average, and weekends drop roughly 17% below the home's own weekday staffing. Turnover at 42.3% is slightly better than the 45.8% national figure, which matters for continuity of care. A recent inspection in November 2025 means the record is current. Quality measures land mid-range. Nothing here reads as dangerous, but the weekend staffing dip is worth asking about directly.
Linley Park Post Acute runs thin on nursing hours: 3.23 per resident day, roughly 16 percent under the national average, and weekends drop about 13 percent below its own weekdays. Annual turnover sits at 63.4 percent against a national 45.8, meaning most of the people caring for residents weren't there a year ago. The for-profit, limited-liability owner has kept a clean inspection record lately, 12 deficiencies, none at harm or jeopardy level, no abuse findings, and a survey from December 2025, and quality measures score well. What a family should weigh is whether adequate clinical outcomes can hold up when the staffing line is the weakest part of the file.
Achieve Rehabilitation and Nursing Center runs 181 beds in Anderson under for-profit LLC ownership, and the staffing numbers are the first thing to notice: 2.94 nurse hours per resident day against a national average of 3.86, with weekends about 14% thinner than weekdays. Annual turnover of 62.7% means most of the people caring for your family member are new, and nearly two-thirds of the staff left last year. The inspection record shows 33 deficiencies, four at harm or jeopardy level and two tied to abuse, plus $73,538 in fines and a place in CMS's Special Focus Facility program, a designation reserved for homes with a pattern of serious problems.
