Life Care Center of Gray runs on leaner nursing hours than most homes, 3.40 per resident day against a national average of 3.86, and weekends get thinner still, dropping roughly 18% below what the building staffs during the week. Turnover sits at 33.3%, which is actually better than the 45.8% national figure, so the people who are there tend to stay. The trouble is inspections: a one-star health inspection rating, 16 deficiencies with four serious enough to put residents at risk of harm, three tied to abuse, and a $10,039 fine. Quality and staffing measures score well, but the last full look at this building was September 2023.

Nhc Healthcare, Johnson City runs 167 certified beds under for-profit LLC ownership, and its inspection record is the standout: a single deficiency on file, none involving harm or jeopardy, none tied to abuse, and a survey completed in January 2026. Staff turnover sits at 28.9% against a national average of 45.8%, which suggests people tend to stay. Nurse staffing is 3.89 hours per resident day, barely above the 3.86 national figure, and weekends run about 12% thinner than weekdays, so coverage isn't uniform across the week. The weaker staffing rating reflects that thin margin more than any serious problem.

Princeton Transitional Care in Johnson City runs on a corporate for-profit model, and its staffing numbers tell a mixed story. At 4.79 nurse hours per resident day, it sits about 24% above the national average, which is a real margin in a field where most homes struggle to hit the baseline. But weekends drop roughly 23% below its own weekday coverage, so the care you see Monday isn't what you get Saturday. Annual turnover hits 52.2%, well past the 45.8% national figure, meaning the staff who know your parent may not stay long. The inspection record is clean: three deficiencies, none at harm level, none abuse-related, with a recent survey in May 2026 and top marks from CMS on health inspections.

Abundant Christian Living in Johnson City runs a sharp split. Inspectors visited in July 2024 and found six deficiencies, none at the harm level, and its clinical quality measures score at the top of CMS's scale, that part of the record is genuinely clean. Staffing is where it thins out. At 3.16 nurse hours per resident day, this 103-bed for-profit home sits about 18 percent under the national average, and weekends drop roughly another 12 percent below its own weekday coverage. Turnover at 42.4 percent is slightly better than the 45.8 percent norm nationally, but with that many caregivers cycling through, consistent hands are hard to count on. Ask how weekends are actually covered before you decide.

Agape Rehabilitation & Nursing Center runs on thinner staffing than most homes you'll compare it to, 3.18 nurse hours per resident day against a national average of 3.86, and weekends dip about 7% below its own weekdays. That's a real gap when you're thinking about how quickly someone answers a call light. Turnover sits at 54.4%, well above the 45.8% national figure, so the people caring for your family member are cycling through faster than average. On the other side, the home's quality measure score is strong and its last inspection was February 2024, with seven deficiencies on record, none at the harm level, though one is abuse-related. It's licensed for 84 beds and owned by an individual for profit.

Lakebridge runs on thinner nurse coverage than most homes, 3.26 hours per resident day against a national average of 3.86, and weekends dip about 10% below its own weekday levels, so the thinnest shifts come when families tend to visit. Turnover sits at 41.8%, a bit better than the 45.8% national figure, which matters because consistent caregivers tend to know residents' routines. The inspection record is genuinely clean: seven deficiencies, none at harm or jeopardy level, none abuse-related, and the most recent survey was July 2023. Owned by an individual for profit. The staffing number is the thing to press on when you tour, ask what a weekend afternoon actually looks like.

Four Oaks runs lean on nursing staff, 3.47 hours per resident day against a national average of 3.86, and weekends drop about 15% below its own weekday coverage. That thin staffing shows up plainly in the turnover number: 68.1% of staff leaving annually, well above the 45.8% national rate, which is the kind of churn that makes consistent care hard to sustain. Inspections tell a different story. The home was surveyed recently, in December 2025, and its 10 deficiencies include none at the harm level and two tied to abuse. Corporate-owned and Medicare-certified at 84 beds, Four Oaks looks solid on quality measures and inspection history while running a staffing operation that's noticeably under the national benchmark.
