Lake Moultrie Nursing Home runs on a hospital-district payroll, which shows up in the turnover number: 28.4% against a national average near 46%, so the aides and nurses here tend to stay. The trade-off is coverage. At 3.59 nurse hours per resident day, it sits about 7% under the national average, and weekends drop roughly 12% below its own weekday staffing. Inspectors cited nine deficiencies, two serious enough to involve harm or jeopardy and one tied to abuse, with a single fine of $11,196 on record. The most recent inspection was March 12, 2026. Stable staff, thinner weekend coverage, and a citation history worth asking about directly.

The Reserve Healthcare and Rehabilitation in Charleston runs 135 certified beds under for-profit LLC ownership, and its inspection record is the standout: zero deficiencies on the current record, none at the harm or jeopardy level, none abuse-related, with the last inspection dated May 28, 2026. That clean sheet is why CMS gave it 5 out of 5 inspection stars and 4 out of 5 on quality measures. The staffing side is thinner, 3.35 nurse hours per resident day sits about 13% under the national average of 3.86, and weekend coverage drops roughly 13% below its own weekday level, which is when families tend to notice. Turnover at 43.4% is slightly better than the 45.8% national figure, so the workforce is comparatively stable even if the hours aren't generous.

Staffing at Retreat At Wellmore Of Daniel Island runs about 4.95 nurse hours per resident day, well above the national average of 3.86, and that shows up in a four-star staffing rating.

Seventeen deficiencies sit on the current record, two involving actual harm or jeopardy, and the health inspection rating is 2 out of 5. Fines total $8,281 across one penalty. A for-profit limited liability company operates the 60-bed home, last inspected in April 2026.

Pruitthealth-Moncks Corner runs 132 certified beds under corporate ownership, and the staffing numbers are where I'd start. At 3.42 nurse hours per resident day, it sits about 11% under the national average, and weekends drop roughly 26% below its own weekday levels, that gap matters when families visit Saturday and Sunday. Turnover is 48.7%, a few points above the national figure, so the faces change often. Inspections show 19 deficiencies, four of them at harm or jeopardy level and two tied to abuse, with $21,970 in fines across three events. The most recent inspection was August 2025, so the record is current.
