Stones River Manor runs a small house, 30 beds, and staffs it far heavier than most places. At 6.19 nurse hours per resident per day, it's roughly 60 percent above the national average, and its nurses stay: turnover of 28.6 percent against a national rate of 45.8 percent. Inspectors were last in on July 1, 2025, and the home has 15 deficiencies on record with none at the harm or jeopardy level, one of them abuse-related, which is worth asking about directly. The trade-off to know is weekends, when staffing drops about a fifth below its own weekday level. Ownership is nonprofit.

Siskin Subacute West runs on unusually heavy staffing, 5.86 nurse hours per resident day against a national average near 3.86, and weekend coverage barely dips below the weekday pace. Turnover sits at 26.4%, well under the national 45.8%, which matters because consistent caregivers tend to know residents' routines. Those numbers earn top federal marks across staffing, health inspections, and quality measures.
The catch is the inspection record behind those stars: 16 deficiencies, five serious enough to involve harm or jeopardy, and one fine of $93,919. A recent inspection date doesn't erase that history. The staffing is real and strong; the survey record is the part worth asking about directly.

Nhc Healthcare, Kingsport runs on 4.53 nurse hours per resident per day, roughly 17% above the national average, and its weekend coverage dips only about 9% below its own weekday level, a gap that tends to matter when families visit and notice who's actually on the floor. Annual turnover sits at 34.1%, well under the 45.8% national figure, meaning the aides and nurses here are more likely to be people who've stayed. The current inspection record shows three deficiencies, none at the harm level and none abuse-related, with the most recent survey dated May 2026. It's a for-profit limited liability company, so weigh that against the numbers rather than instead of them.

Pavilion-Ths runs 4.40 nurse hours per resident day, about 14% above the national average of 3.86, and its weekend staffing dips roughly 17% below its own weekday level, a gap worth asking about if your family visits or calls on Saturdays and Sundays. Staff turnover sits at 25%, well under the 45.8% national figure, so the people caring for residents tend to stay. The current record shows 8 deficiencies, none at the harm level and none abuse-related, with the most recent inspection in March 2025. It's a for-profit LLC with 60 certified beds, and its federal ratings land at 4 out of 5 on health inspections and quality measures, 5 out of 5 on staffing.

Fort Sanders Tcu is a small nonprofit unit, 24 beds, with a clean inspection record and no deficiencies at any level, including nothing abuse-related. That's rare, and the June 2025 survey is recent enough to mean something. The staffing picture is more mixed than it first looks. Total nurse hours run 5.18 per resident day, roughly a third above the national average, but weekend coverage drops about 13% below the home's own weekday level, and CMS still scores staffing at 1 out of 5 stars. Quality measures and health inspections both come in at 5. So the care delivered looks strong on paper; the question a family should ask is who's actually on the floor on a Saturday.

Woodcrest at Blakeford sits in Nashville with 83 certified beds and a nonprofit owner. Nurse staffing runs 4.66 hours per resident day, about 21% above the national average of 3.86, and that shows in a four-star staffing rating. The catch is weekends, when coverage drops roughly 11% below the home's own weekday level. Annual turnover is 51.2%, higher than the 45.8% national figure, so even with good raw hours, some of the faces change often. The current record shows 13 deficiencies, none at harm or jeopardy level, but one abuse-related citation. A five-star quality measure rating and an inspection dated March 2026 round out a home that's strong on care measures with a few real caveats.

White House Health Care runs high on nurse hours, 5.70 per resident per day, roughly half again the national average, and that shows up in its staffing star rating. Weekend coverage dips only about 4% below weekdays, so care doesn't thin out much when families visit. The current inspection record carries 7 deficiencies, none at harm or jeopardy level and none abuse-related, with a survey completed in November 2025. Turnover sits at 51.3% against a national 45.8%, a real weak point given how often residents see new faces. Corporate for-profit ownership, 84 certified beds.

NHC Healthcare, Dickson runs 191 certified beds under corporate for-profit ownership, and the numbers behind its A grade are mostly steady rather than spectacular. Nurse staffing sits at 3.95 hours per resident day, a hair above the national average, though weekends drop roughly 13% below what the home provides on weekdays, worth asking about if your family member needs more help on Saturdays and Sundays. Staff turnover is 38.8%, better than the 45.8% national figure, which suggests people tend to stay. Six deficiencies on record, none at harm or jeopardy level and none abuse-related, with an inspection dated April 2026.

Nhc Place At Cool Springs runs on unusually heavy nurse coverage, 4.97 hours per resident day against a national average of 3.86, roughly 29% more hands-on time than most homes. Weekend staffing dips about 12% below its own weekday level, so the generous weekday numbers aren't quite matched on Saturdays and Sundays. Turnover sits at 48.9%, a bit above the 45.8% national figure, which means a fair amount of churn among the people doing that care. The inspection record shows 8 deficiencies, 2 serious enough to involve harm or jeopardy, none abuse-related, and the last full inspection was September 2022, over two years ago. Corporate for-profit ownership, and four-out-of-five ratings on health inspections, quality measures, and staffing.

The Health Center At Richland Place is a 107-bed nonprofit home in Nashville with staffing that beats the national average, 4.34 nurse hours per resident day against 3.86, though weekends run about 12% thinner than weekdays. Annual turnover sits at 42.1%, a bit better than the 45.8% national figure. The trouble shows up in inspections: 19 deficiencies on the current record, five at harm or jeopardy level and one abuse-related, with a $56,378 fine and a two-star health inspection rating. Quality measures score five stars, but that reflects resident care metrics, not how well the building has been kept in compliance.

Covington Post Acute runs on more nursing attention than most homes get. At 4.62 nurse hours per resident day, it's about 20 percent above the national average of 3.86, and the weekend dip, roughly 13 percent below its own weekday level, is real but not steep enough to erase that cushion. Staff turnover sits at 38.7 percent, better than the 45.8 percent national figure, though still meaning more than a third of the workforce turns over each year. The inspection record shows 11 deficiencies, none at harm or jeopardy level and none abuse-related, with the last survey in March 2026. Three four-star ratings, health inspections, quality measures, staffing, back up the numbers. Corporate ownership doesn't change what the data shows.

Nhc Healthcare, Farragut sits in Knoxville with 106 certified beds and a for-profit corporate owner. The inspection history is the strong part: a recent survey in February 2026, 14 deficiencies on record, and none of them tied to harm, jeopardy, or abuse. Quality measures also score well. Staffing is where this home separates from the pack in the wrong direction, a one-star staffing rating, meaning nurse hours per resident fall well below what CMS expects. Turnover runs 46.2%, just above the national average of 45.8%, so the people who do show up don't tend to stay long. A clean inspection record doesn't fix thin coverage on the floor, especially when aides and nurses are cycling through.

Towne Square Care of Puryear runs 32 certified beds in Henry County under corporate for-profit ownership, and its staffing numbers tell two different stories. Total nurse coverage sits at 4.29 hours per resident day, about 11% above the national average, but weekends run roughly 34% below its own weekday level, so the weekday floor is better staffed than the weekend one.
Staff turnover is the standout: 22.7% annually, well under the national 45.8%, which suggests people stay. The tradeoff is a record of 16 deficiencies with no harm-level findings, though one is abuse-related, and a 3/5 inspection rating against a 4/5 on quality measures. That mix, steady staff, thinner weekends, a documented abuse citation, is what a family should weigh.

Shannondale of Maryville is a 44-bed nonprofit home run by a church, and the staffing numbers are its strongest feature: 4.46 nurse hours per resident day, roughly 16% above the national average. Weekend coverage dips about 8% below weekday levels, which is worth asking about if your visits will fall on Saturdays or Sundays. The tradeoff is retention, 57.4% annual turnover runs well above the 45.8% national figure, so aides and nurses cycle through faster than average. On the inspection side, six deficiencies appear on the current record with none at the harm level, but two are abuse-related, a small number that still deserves a direct question.

Nhc Place At The Trace runs 4.08 nurse hours per resident day, about 6% above the national average, though weekend coverage drops roughly 10% below its own weekday level. Staff turnover sits at 54.5%, nearly nine points above the national figure, which matters because new aides cycle through quickly. The current record shows 14 deficiencies, none rising to harm or jeopardy and none abuse-related, and the last inspection was February 2025. Quality measures score well, inspections land in the middle, and staffing holds up on paper. It's a for-profit limited liability company with 90 beds. The numbers describe a stable home with a churn problem worth asking about directly.

The Reserve At Spring Hill runs 5.09 nurse hours per resident day, roughly a third more than the national average of 3.86, and its inspection and quality ratings both sit at the top of CMS's five-star scale. Nine deficiencies on record with none at the harm level and none tied to abuse is a clean sheet by most standards, though the last full inspection was in June 2021, so that picture is a few years old. Staff turnover lands at 47.1%, slightly worse than the 45.8% national figure, and weekend coverage drops about 11% below weekday levels, worth asking about if your family member needs care Saturday or Sunday.

Allen Morgan runs on staffing you rarely see in a 31-bed home: 6.64 nurse hours per resident day, about 72% above the national average, with weekends dipping only slightly below weekdays. Inspections back that up, three deficiencies on record, none causing harm or jeopardy, no abuse findings, and the most recent survey came in February 2026. Quality measures sit mid-range at 3 out of 5, which is the one number here that doesn't stand out. As a nonprofit, there's no owner profit motive pulling resources away from care, and the low deficiency count with recent oversight suggests a home that stays on top of things between surveys.

Nurse staffing sits at 3.73 hours per resident day, about 3% under the national average, and weekends drop roughly 13% below what the home staffs on weekdays, worth asking about if your family visits or calls on Saturdays and Sundays. Staff turnover is 43.2%, slightly better than the national 45.8%, and the six deficiencies on record include none tied to harm, jeopardy, or abuse. One caution: the last inspection was November 2021, so that clean record is getting stale.

Kirby Pines Manor runs on a nonprofit model with 120 certified beds, and its inspection record is genuinely clean, two deficiencies on file, none involving harm or abuse, and a survey completed in June 2025. The quality measure scores back that up. Where it gets less comfortable is staffing: 3.67 nurse hours per resident day sits about 5% under the national average, weekends drop roughly 22% below weekdays, and turnover runs 54.5% against a national 45.8%. So the care standards look strong on paper, but the people delivering that care are stretched thinner than average and cycling through faster than average. Worth asking the administrator directly how they cover weekends and what they're doing about retention.

Adamsplace runs 4.71 nurse hours per resident day, about 22% above the national average, and that staffing shows up in its four-out-of-five staffing rating. But weekends drop roughly 20% below its own weekday level, and annual turnover sits at 52.5% against a national 45.8%, meaning the people covering those shifts keep changing. The health inspection side is weaker: a two-out-of-five rating, nine deficiencies on record, including one abuse-related citation, though none rose to harm or jeopardy. Its last inspection was in December 2025. A five-out-of-five quality measure rating reflects resident care outcomes, but the inspection record and churn are the parts worth asking about directly.
