Wood Village runs lean on daily nursing hours, 3.48 per resident, roughly 10 percent under the national average, and weekends dip another 9 percent below its own weekday pace. What stands out instead is retention: 27.9 percent turnover against a national average of 45.8 percent means the aides and nurses here tend to stay, which matters more for daily care than a staffing ratio on paper. The inspection record backs that up, with a 5/5 health inspection rating, only two deficiencies on file, none involving harm or abuse, and a recent May 2025 survey. Nonprofit ownership and a 4/5 quality measure rating round out a home that's stable rather than flush.

Overton County Health and Rehab Center runs on county government ownership, and the numbers show a home that's mostly steady. Nurse staffing sits at 4.36 hours per resident day, about 13% above the national average, with weekend coverage barely dipping below weekday levels, and turnover at 35.1% is well under the 45.8% national figure, which suggests people stick around. The record is clean where it counts: five deficiencies total, none at the harm level and none tied to abuse, with an inspection as recent as May 2025. The softer spot is quality measures, where the home scores 2 out of 5, so ask what specific conditions are driving that before you decide.

Nurse staffing here runs about 4.29 hours per resident per day, roughly 11% above the national average, though weekends drop about 16% below the home's own weekday levels. Turnover sits at 43.1%, slightly better than the 45.8% national figure. The inspection record shows 10 deficiencies, none at the harm or jeopardy level and none abuse-related, with the most recent inspection dated April 2026. This is a limited liability company operating 120 certified beds for profit, and the staffing and inspection numbers land in middle territory rather than at either extreme.

Nhc Healthcare, Oakwood runs 60 certified beds in Lewisburg under corporate for-profit ownership, and its strongest showing is in resident outcomes, the federal quality measure rating sits at 5 out of 5. Staffing is thinner than it looks on paper: 3.23 nurse hours per resident day, roughly 16 percent below the national average of 3.86, and weekends drop about 10 percent below the home's own weekday coverage. Annual turnover of 49.1 percent exceeds the 45.8 percent national figure, so the faces change often. Inspections earn 3 of 5 stars, with 12 deficiencies on record, none at the harm or jeopardy level, and none abuse-related. The most recent inspection was January 22, 2026, so the picture is current.

Nhc Healthcare, Knoxville runs 127 certified beds under for-profit limited liability ownership, and its staffing sits right at the national line, 3.84 nurse hours per resident day against a 3.86 average, with weekends dropping roughly 14% below its own weekday coverage. Annual turnover is 57.7%, well above the 45.8% national figure, so the people caring for residents change often. The current inspection record carries 16 deficiencies, including one at the harm or jeopardy level and three tied to abuse, from a last survey dated March 15, 2023. Quality and staffing measures look strong on paper, but the inspection history and weekend gaps are where families should focus their questions.

Nhc Healthcare, Athens runs on 4.07 nurse hours per resident day, about 5% above the national average, though weekends drop roughly 14% below its own weekday staffing. Annual turnover sits at 50.8%, higher than the 45.8% national figure. The home carries a for-profit LLC ownership structure and eight deficiencies on its current record, none at the harm or jeopardy level and none abuse-related. Its last inspection was August 24, 2023, and it holds 4 out of 5 stars in each CMS category, health inspections, quality measures, and staffing. The numbers point to a decently staffed home with solid inspection history, held back somewhat by turnover and thinner weekend coverage.

Nhc Healthcare, Sparta runs about 3.69 nurse hours per resident each day, roughly 4% under the national average, and weekends pull about 10% below its own weekday numbers. Turnover sits at 36.7%, better than the 45.8% national rate, so the crew here is comparatively stable. On its current record: seven deficiencies, none at the harm level, one tied to abuse, with the last inspection in June 2025. The limited liability, for-profit structure is worth knowing about, that ownership type often runs leaner on staffing, and the below-average hours here fit that pattern.

Sevierville Health and Rehabilitation Center runs 98 certified beds as a nonprofit corporation, and its staffing sits a bit under the national average, 3.71 nurse hours per resident day against 3.86 nationally, with weekends dipping roughly 11% below its own weekday coverage. That staffing pattern earned a middle-tier CMS staffing score, though turnover at 42.4% is actually better than the 45.8% national figure. The record shows 11 deficiencies, none involving harm or jeopardy and none tied to abuse, with a recent inspection in March 2026. Strong inspection and quality scores balance out the leaner direct-care hours, which is what keeps this one in solid rather than top territory.

Life Care Center of Columbia sits right at the national average for nurse staffing, 3.88 hours per resident day against 3.86, close enough that the difference means nothing. What does stand out is the 51.3% annual turnover, well above the typical 45.8%, and weekend staffing that drops about 12% below the home's own weekday levels, so the people around your family member change often and thin out on Saturdays and Sundays. Seven deficiencies sit on the current record, three serious enough to involve harm or jeopardy. The last full inspection was December 2021, which is a long time ago.

Life Care Center Of Hixson runs 108 certified beds under corporate ownership, and its nurse staffing sits at 4.17 hours per resident day, roughly 8% above the national average of 3.86. That's real coverage on paper, though weekends drop about 13% below the home's own weekday level, so the weekday numbers don't tell the whole story. Staff turnover lands at 44%, a hair under the 45.8% national figure, which is neither a red flag nor a bragging point. The bigger issue is the inspection record: a 1-out-of-5 health inspection rating, 8 deficiencies with 1 at the harm or jeopardy level, and no abuse citations. The most recent inspection was May 2026. Quality and staffing measures each rate 3 out of 5.

Hancock Manor runs on 4.13 nurse hours per resident per day, which puts it about 7 percent above the national average of 3.86. Staff turnover sits at 37 percent, better than the 45.8 percent national figure, though weekend coverage drops roughly 10 percent below what the home staffs on weekdays. The inspection record is clean where it counts: four deficiencies total, none at the harm or jeopardy level, none abuse-related, and the most recent inspection was August 2025. For a 50-bed for-profit corporation in Sneedville, that combination of steady staffing and a short, low-severity deficiency list is the main thing working in its favor.

West Tennessee Post Acute runs about 4.92 nurse hours per resident per day, roughly 27% above the national average of 3.86, that's real coverage on paper. The catch is consistency: weekend staffing drops about 20% below its own weekday level, so the aide who knows your mother on Tuesday may not be there Saturday. Staff turnover sits at 51.9%, above the national 45.8%, meaning half the workforce turns over each year. Fourteen deficiencies are on the current record, though none at harm or jeopardy level and none abuse-related. State inspectors last visited in May 2025. For-profit, limited liability ownership. The staffing numbers look better than the average; the retention numbers explain why that average can be hard to feel.

Laurelbrook's staffing is the strongest thing it has going: 4.12 nurse hours per resident day sits about 7% above the national average, and turnover of 21.7% is roughly half the national rate, a stable crew matters more than raw hours. The catch is weekends, when coverage drops about 22% below the home's own weekday level. The inspection record is where the real concern lives: 19 deficiencies on file, five of them at harm or jeopardy level and four tied to abuse, with the most recent inspection in October 2024. A church-affiliated nonprofit with 50 beds and steady staff, but that harm-level history is what a family should ask about directly.

Nhc-Maury Regional runs a clean shop on the things inspectors can see. Seven deficiencies on the current record with none causing harm or jeopardy, and a five-star inspection rating backed by a September 2023 survey, that combination usually means a building where the basics get done. The staffing picture is more mixed. At 4.10 nurse hours per resident day, it sits about 6% above the national average, but weekends run roughly 11% thinner than weekdays, and turnover hits 55.9% against a national 45.8%. That churn is worth asking about directly. Corporate for-profit ownership, 112 beds. The care numbers look solid. The question is whether the people delivering them stick around.

The Waters of Clinton runs on 2.96 nurse hours per resident per day, roughly a quarter below the national average of 3.86, and weekends dip about 10% below its own weekday level. That thin coverage is what CMS's 2-out-of-5 staffing rating reflects, even though the home's quality measure score is perfect and turnover (32.4%) actually beats the national 45.8%. The 14 deficiencies on record include none at the harm level and none abuse-related, and the most recent inspection was September 2025. So this is a for-profit LLC where outcomes look good on paper and staff tend to stay, but day-to-day hands-on time is well short of average, worth asking how the floor is covered on a Saturday.

Life Care Center Of Crossville runs 122 certified beds under for-profit LLC ownership, and its staffing sits at 3.68 nurse hours per resident day, roughly 5% under the national average of 3.86. Weekends dip about 10% below the home's own weekday coverage, so families should ask who's actually on the floor on Saturdays and Sundays. The inspection record shows 17 deficiencies, including one at the harm or jeopardy level and three tied to abuse; the state fined the home $8,824. Turnover at 41.3% is slightly better than the 45.8% national figure, and the quality measure rating is strong, but that harm-level and abuse-related history is what you'd want to press administrators on directly.

Lynchburg Nursing Center runs 88 certified beds under for-profit LLC ownership, and the staffing picture is where your attention should go first. Total nurse hours sit at 3.75 per resident day, a bit under the national average, and weekends drop roughly 13% below what the home staffs on weekdays, so coverage thins out exactly when families tend to visit and when fewer administrators are around. What offsets that is unusually low turnover at 24.2%, well under the national figure, which suggests the aides and nurses who are there tend to stay. The inspection record is clean where it counts: six deficiencies, none at harm or jeopardy level, none abuse-related, with a recent survey in December 2025. Staffing is the soft spot; consistency is the strength.

The Waters of Roan Highlands runs lean on direct care: 3.32 nurse hours per resident day, roughly 14 percent under the national average, and weekends get thinner still, dropping another 14 percent below the home's own weekday level. That gap is what pulls its staffing rating down to 2 out of 5. What offsets it is a clean inspection record, zero deficiencies on the current books, none at harm level, none abuse-related, with a survey completed in May 2026, and quality measures scoring 5 out of 5. Staff turnover sits at 29.2 percent, well below the 45.8 percent national figure, so the people who are there tend to stay.

Asbury Place Kingsport runs a lean nursing floor: 3.48 nurse hours per resident day, roughly 10% under the national average, and weekends drop about 8% below its own weekday coverage. That's worth asking about if your family member needs help on Saturdays and Sundays. The tradeoff is consistency, 34.5% annual turnover is well below the 45.8% national figure, so the aides and nurses you meet are more likely to still be there next year. Ten deficiencies sit on the current record, none at harm level, one tied to abuse, with five fines totaling $23,604. A for-profit LLC operates the 67-bed home, and its last inspection was April 2026.

Nhc Healthcare, Tullahoma runs 90 certified beds under for-profit LLC ownership, and the nurse staffing number lands at 4.00 hours per resident day, about 4% above the national average of 3.86. That margin narrows on weekends, when coverage drops roughly 13% below the home's own weekday level. Staff turnover sits at 52.6%, noticeably higher than the 45.8% national figure, so continuity of caregivers is a fair question to raise. The current inspection record shows 13 deficiencies, none at harm or jeopardy level, though one is abuse-related. The last inspection was June 11, 2025, so the picture is recent. CMS rates staffing and quality measures 4 out of 5, health inspections 3.
