Signature Healthcare of Primacy runs 120 beds under for-profit LLC ownership, and the staffing picture is the weak spot. At 3.81 nurse hours per resident day, it sits just under the national average of 3.86, and weekends drop roughly 17% below its own weekday coverage. Annual turnover of 48.2% also edges past the national 45.8%, so the people caring for residents change often.
What lifts it is the inspection record: a 4-star health inspection rating, seven deficiencies on file, none involving harm or jeopardy, and none abuse-related, with the most recent inspection dated March 2026. Quality measures come in strong at 5 stars. If staffing consistency matters most to you, ask how weekends are covered.

Mountain City Care & Rehabilitation Center runs 3.43 total nurse hours per resident per day, roughly 11% under the national average, and weekends drop about 16% below its own weekday staffing. That's worth knowing before you visit on a Sunday. The tradeoff is stability: turnover sits at 35.4% against a national average near 46%, so the aides and nurses you meet are more likely to still be there next year. The current record shows six deficiencies, none at the harm level and none abuse-related, and its last inspection was April 2026, so the findings are recent rather than stale. A 120-bed for-profit LLC with a five-star inspection history and thinner daily coverage, ask about weekend coverage directly.

Hillview Health Center runs on federal ownership, which shapes how it operates. The 76-bed home in Elizabethton scores 4 out of 5 stars on all three CMS measures, health inspections, quality, and staffing, and its record shows 7 deficiencies with none at the harm or jeopardy level and nothing abuse-related. Staffing sits at 3.65 hours per resident day, about 5% under the national average of 3.86, and weekends drop roughly 20% below its own weekday coverage. Turnover is 41.2%, better than the 45.8% national figure. Its last inspection was November 2023, so the record is reasonably current. The weak spot is thin weekend staffing, not safety or quality.

Alamo Nursing and Rehabilitation Center runs on 4.96 nurse hours per resident day, roughly 28% above the national average of 3.86, that's the number working in its favor. Weekends dip about 18% below weekday staffing, so ask how coverage holds up on Saturdays and Sundays. Turnover sits at 43.8%, slightly better than the 45.8% national figure, which matters for whether your parent sees the same faces. The inspection history shows 17 deficiencies, one serious enough to reach harm or jeopardy level, and one fine of $12,542; the most recent inspection was March 2026. Corporate for-profit ownership, 121 beds. The staffing is real, but that one harm-level finding is worth asking about directly.

Dyer Nursing and Rehabilitation Center runs 5.13 total nurse hours per resident day, roughly a third more than the national average of 3.86, and its staff turnover of 38.2% sits below the national 45.8%, both signs of a home that keeps people and staffs them. Weekend hours drop about 24% from weekday levels, worth asking about if your family visits Saturdays or Sundays. The inspection record is clean where it matters: nine deficiencies, none at harm or jeopardy level, none abuse-related, with the most recent survey in August 2025. The weak spot is the quality measure star rating of 1 out of 5, which doesn't square with the staffing picture and is the number to press the administrator on.

Jefferson County Nursing Home is county-owned, and that shows up in the staffing numbers: 4.40 nurse hours per resident day, roughly 14% above the national average, with turnover at 28.4% against a national 45.8%. People tend to stay here. Weekend staffing drops about 18% below weekday levels, which is worth asking about if your family member needs more attention on Saturdays and Sundays. The health inspection record is clean where it counts, nine deficiencies on file, none at the harm or jeopardy level, none abuse-related, and the most recent inspection was in December 2025. The weak spot is the quality measure rating, which sits near the bottom at 1 out of 5. That gap between good staffing and poor clinical outcomes is the thing to press the administrator on.

Life Care Center of Blount County runs 120 certified beds under corporate ownership, and its staffing sits slightly under the national average, 3.79 nurse hours per resident day against 3.86. That gap is small, but weekends drop about 18% below the home's own weekday coverage, and staff turnover is 51.4%, noticeably above the 45.8% national figure. The inspection record is where the real concern shows: 19 deficiencies, one at harm or jeopardy level, two abuse-related, plus an $8,018 fine, with the most recent inspection in December 2024. Quality measures score well, but strong clinical numbers don't cancel out a thin weekend shift or a harm-level finding. Worth asking about directly before deciding.

Wellpark is a small for-profit home in Knox County, 32 beds, run by a limited liability company. Its quality scores look great, but that's where the shine fades. Nurse staffing sits just under the national average, and weekends run about 9% thinner than weekdays, so the care you'd want on a Saturday isn't quite the care you'd get on a Tuesday. Inspectors cited 17 deficiencies, including one tied to abuse, though none rose to actual harm or jeopardy. The last inspection was in January 2025, so the record is recent. The state's two-star health inspection rating tells you compliance has been uneven even if no single finding was severe. Ask about weekend coverage and that abuse citation before you decide.

Harbert Hills Academy N H runs a tight ship on nurse coverage, with 4.88 hours per resident day, roughly a quarter more than the national average, and that staffing earns it four stars. Weekends dip about 17% below weekday levels, so care may feel thinner on Saturdays and Sundays than the weekday numbers suggest. The inspection record is clean where it counts: 13 deficiencies on file, none at harm or jeopardy level, though one is abuse-related and worth asking about directly. Staff turnover sits just above the national rate at 50.8%, and quality measures lag at two stars, a gap that suggests the clinical outcomes don't fully match the staffing picture.

Nhc Healthcare, Chattanooga runs 200 beds under corporate for-profit ownership, and its nurse staffing sits at 3.66 hours per resident day, about 5% under the national average, with weekends dipping roughly 13% below its own weekday levels. That thinner weekend coverage matters, because direct care doesn't pause on Saturdays. Annual turnover hits 51%, well above the 45.8% national figure, so familiar faces cycle out faster than average here.
The inspection record is current, last reviewed in October 2024, and shows 10 deficiencies with none at the harm or jeopardy level and nothing abuse-related. CMS rates the clinical quality measures a full 5 out of 5, while staffing earns 2. The care itself looks solid on paper; the workforce keeping it running is where the strain shows.

Nhc Healthcare, Murfreesboro runs 181 certified beds under corporate for-profit ownership, and its inspection record is genuinely strong, a five-star health inspection rating, seven total deficiencies with none rising to harm or jeopardy, and a survey completed in March 2026. The catch sits in the workforce. Nurse staffing averages 3.85 hours per resident day, essentially level with the national figure, but weekends run about 9% lighter than weekdays, and annual turnover hits 56.7% against a national average of 45.8%. Two abuse-related deficiencies also appear on the current record. Consistent oversight and quality scores are doing real work here; the question is whether enough consistent hands stay on staff to keep it that way.

The Health Center at Standifer Place runs 444 certified beds as a for-profit LLC, and its most recent inspection closed out in July 2025 with 15 deficiencies on record, none of them at the harm or jeopardy level, and none abuse-related. Nurse staffing sits at 3.83 hours per resident day, roughly a hair under the national average, but weekends drop about 15% below what the building staffs on weekdays, which is where thin coverage tends to show. Annual turnover of 44.9% is essentially the national rate. Inspection and quality measures both rate well; staffing is the softer spot.

Signature Healthcare of Elizabethton runs 94 certified beds under for-profit LLC ownership, and its inspection record is the cleanest part of the story: a five-star health inspection rating with just two deficiencies on file, none at the harm or jeopardy level. One of those two is abuse-related, which is worth asking about directly. Nurse staffing sits at 3.89 hours per resident day, barely above the 3.86 national average, and weekends dip about 12% below the home's own weekday coverage. Staff turnover is 36.8%, lower than the 45.8% national figure, which suggests people tend to stay. The last inspection was May 2025, so the record you're reading is recent.

Countryside Post-Acute and Rehabilitation Center is a 162-bed for-profit in Lawrenceburg, and its numbers tell a mixed story. Nurse staffing sits at 3.66 hours per resident per day, roughly 5% under the national average, and weekend coverage drops about 13% below the home's own weekday level, so care thins out exactly when families tend to visit. Staff turnover, at 40.2%, is actually better than the 45.8% national figure, which suggests some stability in the workforce. The current record shows 15 deficiencies, none at the harm level and none abuse-related, and the last inspection was in February 2026. Quality measures score well; staffing is the weak spot.

Life Care Center of Collegedale runs about 3.35 nursing hours per resident each day, roughly 13% under the national average, and weekends are thinner still, about 13% below its own weekday staffing. Turnover sits at 35.8%, better than the 45.8% national figure, so the people who stay tend to stay. The current record shows 8 deficiencies, none involving harm or abuse, and the last inspection was in March 2023. Its quality measure score is perfect while staffing and inspections land in the middle. Read together, that mix suggests a home getting good clinical outcomes from a leaner crew, though the weekend dip is worth asking about directly.

Trenton Health and Rehabilitation Center runs 50 certified beds under corporate for-profit ownership, and its inspection record is genuinely clean, a five-star health inspection rating, no deficiencies at the harm or jeopardy level, and nothing abuse-related among its eight total citations. The catch is staffing. Total nurse coverage sits at 3.88 hours per resident day, essentially dead even with the national average, and weekends drop about 12% below what the home staffs on weekdays. Annual turnover of 48.9% tops the national rate of 45.8%, which means roughly half the nursing staff turns over each year. Quality measures score five stars, and the most recent inspection was in January 2026. Strong care outcomes, thin staffing cushion.

Signature Healthcare of Rogersville runs 150 certified beds under corporate ownership, and its staffing sits at 3.40 nurse hours per resident per day, about 12% under the national average of 3.86. Weekends dip roughly another 12% below its own weekday coverage, so if you're visiting or calling on a Saturday, expect a thinner floor than midweek. The stronger news is on inspections: three deficiencies on record, none at the harm level, none abuse-related, and the most recent survey was in January 2026. Turnover lands at 42.9%, slightly better than the 45.8% national figure. Its inspection and quality ratings both hit the top mark; staffing is the piece holding it back.

The Preserve At Fairfield Glade runs on staffing that's essentially at the national average, 3.82 nurse hours per resident day against 3.86, though weekends dip about 8% below its own weekday coverage, which matters if your visits fall on a Saturday or Sunday. What stands out more is the 65% annual turnover, well above the 45.8% national figure, meaning the aide or nurse your family member sees most often may not be there in a year. The record shows 16 deficiencies, none at the harm level but two tied to abuse, and the last full inspection was in May 2023. Quality measures score well; inspections are middling.

Dover Care Center runs 88 certified beds under corporate for-profit ownership, and its nurse staffing sits at 3.57 hours per resident day, roughly 8% under the national average of 3.86. Weekends are thinner still, about 17% below the home's own weekday coverage, which is worth asking about if your family visits mainly on Saturdays and Sundays. Staff turnover of 43.9% is a hair better than the 45.8% national figure, so aides and nurses here aren't leaving any faster than elsewhere. The current record shows 17 deficiencies, none at harm or jeopardy level, though three are abuse-related, a category that deserves a direct question. The last inspection was July 2025, and all three CMS star ratings land at 3 out of 5.

Memphis Jewish Home runs on 5.66 nurse hours per resident day, roughly 47 percent above the national average of 3.86, and that shows up in its four-star staffing rating. The catch is consistency: weekend coverage drops about 12 percent from weekday levels, and turnover sits at 56.1 percent against a national 45.8 percent, so the people delivering that strong staffing number keep changing. Fourteen deficiencies sit on the current record, one serious enough to involve harm or jeopardy, though none are abuse-related. Its last inspection came in February 2026, and quality measures score two stars against four for health inspections, so the hands-on care is there, but watch how it holds up on weekends and who's still on staff a year from now.
