Palmetto Patriots runs a state-owned home in Gaffney with 52 beds and nurse staffing at 5.56 hours per resident day, roughly 44% above the national average of 3.86. Weekend coverage dips about 10% below its own weekday levels, which is worth asking about if your family visits or calls on Saturdays and Sundays. The current inspection record shows zero deficiencies, none at the harm level, and no abuse citations, though nine fines totaling $30,147 appear on the books from earlier. Its last inspection was April 2026, so the record is recent. State ownership tends to mean steadier funding and public accountability, and the staffing number is the real story here.

Brookview runs on 3.00 nurse hours per resident day, about 22% under the national average, and weekends drop roughly another 12% below its own weekday staffing. That thin coverage shows up in the inspection record: 14 deficiencies, 4 serious enough to put residents in harm's way, 3 tied to abuse, and $42,599 in fines. Staff turnover sits at 49%, slightly worse than the 45.8% national figure, so the people providing care keep changing. The last inspection was January 8, 2026, meaning the record is current, not old news. This is a for-profit LLC with 132 certified beds, and the pattern across staffing, turnover, and serious deficiencies is consistent rather than a one-time slip.

Peachtree Centre runs a 151-bed for-profit operation in Gaffney, and the staffing numbers are the first thing a family should sit with. At 3.02 nurse hours per resident day, it's about 22% under the national average of 3.86, and weekends drop roughly another 10% below its own weekday level, so the thinnest coverage lands exactly when families tend to visit and when backup is hardest to call in. Turnover sits at 64.6% against a national 45.8%, meaning roughly two of every three caregivers are new to the building each year. Eighteen deficiencies are on record, none at harm or jeopardy level and none abuse-related, which matters, but the most recent inspection was May 2026.
