Skyline Nursing Center is a 204-bed hospital-district home in Dallas, and the numbers behind its federal record are hard to read kindly. Nurse staffing runs about 3.05 hours per resident day, roughly a fifth below the national average, and it drops another 10% on weekends, when families often visit and coverage matters most. Annual turnover sits at 50%. The inspection history is heavier still: 39 deficiencies on the current record, including 5 at the level where residents were actually harmed or put in jeopardy, plus 6 tied to abuse. One fine of $96,817 has been levied, and the most recent inspection was April 2026.
Advanced Health & Rehab Center of Garland runs on 2.97 nursing hours per resident per day, roughly a quarter below the national average, and weekends drop about 10% below its own weekday staffing. That thin coverage shows up in the inspection record: 41 deficiencies, four serious enough to cause harm or jeopardy, two tied to abuse, and three fines totaling $237,224. Staff turnover of 43.5% is slightly better than the national 45.8%, and the quality measure score is strong, but the staffing and inspection scores sit at the bottom. It's hospital-district owned and was inspected in April 2025. Ask about weekend nurse coverage and what changed since that inspection.
Patriot Heights runs 3.46 nurse hours per resident day, roughly 11% under the national average, and weekends dip about 15% below what the home itself staffs Monday through Friday. That thin weekend coverage matters more when you look at the record: 25 deficiencies, three at harm or jeopardy level, two tied to abuse, and $28,033 in fines across two penalties. Annual turnover sits at 50%, above the 45.8% national figure, so the people providing care keep changing. The quality measure score looks strong, but that reflects charted clinical outcomes, not whether enough hands are present on a Saturday. The last inspection was September 5, 2025.
Henderson Health & Rehabilitation Center runs 173 certified beds under for-profit LLC ownership, and its nurse staffing sits at 3.27 hours per resident day, roughly 15% under the national average of 3.86. Weekends dip about 5% below its own weekday levels, and annual turnover hits 52.5% against a national 45.8%, meaning more than half the nursing staff turns over each year. The inspection record shows 30 deficiencies, four of them serious enough to cause harm or jeopardy, plus one abuse-related finding and a $10,546 fine. The last inspection was May 2025. Quality measures score well, but staffing and inspection results are where the real story sits.
Cherokee Rose runs lean on nurses. At 3.20 hours per resident day, its staffing sits about 17 percent under the national average, and weekends drop roughly another 20 percent below its own weekday level, so the thinnest coverage lands when families tend to visit. That shows up in the staffing star rating, which comes in at 1 out of 5, even as the health inspection rating holds at 4 out of 5. The current record carries 18 deficiencies, none tied to harm, jeopardy, or abuse, and the most recent inspection was March 2026. Quality measures rate 2 out of 5. Corporate-owned, 102 beds. Strong recent inspections, weak day-to-day staffing.
Arbor Lake runs on 3.11 nurse hours per resident per day, roughly 19 percent under the national average, and weekends drop another 11 percent below what the home itself staffs on weekdays. That thin coverage shows up in a 52.7 percent annual turnover rate, with more than half the nursing staff leaving each year. Inspectors cited 33 deficiencies on the current record, three of them serious enough to put residents in harm's way and two tied to abuse. The owner is a for-profit individual, and two fines totaling $14,676 are on file. One bright spot: the quality measures score well above average, and the most recent inspection was July 2025.
Colonial Manor runs on 3.42 nurse hours per resident per day, roughly 11% under the national average, and weekends dip another 7% below its own weekday numbers, so the thinnest coverage lands when families tend to visit. The inspection record is the harder problem: 43 deficiencies, six serious enough to reach harm or jeopardy, six tied to abuse, and four fines totaling $87,564, all from a for-profit LLC operating 123 beds. Staff turnover at 39.2% actually beats the national 45.8%, which tells you the building can hold workers, the trouble is how few of them there are and what inspectors keep finding.
Chisolm Trail runs a 96-bed for-profit home in Lockhart, and the numbers point in two directions at once. Resident outcomes look good on the federal quality measures, but staffing sits at 2.72 nurse hours per resident day, roughly 29 percent under the national average, and weekends drop about 16 percent below the home's own weekday coverage. The inspection record shows 24 deficiencies, including one at the harm level and two tied to abuse, plus a $37,541 fine; the most recent inspection was in August 2025. If you're weighing this one, ask how they cover weekends and what changed after that harm citation.
Cass Valley Healthcare Center runs 74 certified beds in Centerville under for-profit LLC ownership, and its nurse staffing comes in at 4.20 hours per resident day, roughly 9% above the national average of 3.86. That cushion thins on weekends, which run about 10% below the home's own weekday level, and annual turnover sits at 45%, essentially matching the national rate. The harder numbers are on the inspection side: 25 deficiencies on the current record, five of them at the harm or jeopardy level and four tied to abuse, with four fines totaling $54,592 and a two-out-of-five health inspection rating. The most recent inspection was November 24, 2025. Strong quality measure scores don't erase that record.
Windsor Healthcare Residence runs about 3.31 nurse hours per resident per day, roughly 14% under the national average, and weekend coverage dips another 8% below its own weekday levels, so the thinnest shifts land when families tend to visit. Staff turnover sits at 52.4%, above the 45.8% national figure, and that churn shows up in the inspection record: 13 deficiencies, three serious enough to flag harm or jeopardy, two tied to abuse, plus three fines totaling $34,232. The most recent inspection was August 2025. It's a for-profit, individually owned home with 90 certified beds. The quality measure score looks strong, but quality measures reflect resident health outcomes, not whether enough hands are on the floor or whether problems get fixed.
Kirkland Court runs on thin staffing. At 2.88 nurse hours per resident per day, it sits about a quarter below the national average, and weekend coverage drops further, so the thinnest shifts fall when families tend to visit. Staff turnover of 53.3% tops the national rate, meaning the people caring for your relative are often new to the building. The inspection record is the harder read: 37 deficiencies, three serious enough to put residents in harm or jeopardy, and six tied to abuse. Two fines total $16,810. The quality measures look strong, but those come from resident assessments, not from how the place is run day to day.
Willowcreek runs on 2.74 nurse hours per resident day, roughly 29% under the national average, and the weekend gap makes that thinner when families visit most. Staff turnover sits at 57.7% against a 45.8% national figure, so aides and nurses cycle through faster than residents can get used to them. The inspection record shows 24 deficiencies, including one at the harm level and one abuse-related, with a $23,794 fine and a 2-out-of-5 health inspection rating. Quality measures score well, but that's largely charting, and a 1-out-of-5 staffing rating tells you where the daily experience likely lands.
Val Verde runs lean on direct care: 3.24 nurse hours per resident day against a national average of 3.86, and weekends drop about 11% below its own weekday staffing. That's a real gap, not a rounding error, and it likely shows up on Saturday afternoons. Turnover is the bright spot, 31.1% versus 45.8% nationally, so the people who are there tend to stay. But the record holds 30 deficiencies, including two at harm level and three tied to abuse, plus a $138,908 fine. Inspectors were last in on June 6, 2025. Nonprofit ownership doesn't erase those numbers; staffing and past problems both matter when you weigh this one.
Focused Care Of Center is a for-profit limited liability company home with 92 certified beds, and the numbers tell a mixed story. Nurse staffing sits at 3.50 hours per resident day, about 9% under the national average, and weekends run roughly 13% below its own weekday level, so coverage thins out exactly when families tend to visit. Turnover, at 32.8%, is actually better than the 45.8% national figure, but the inspection record is where the real trouble sits: 37 deficiencies, including 4 at the harm or jeopardy level and 4 tied to abuse, plus two fines totaling $256,719. The most recent inspection was June 11, 2025.
Avir At Overton runs 100 certified beds under for-profit LLC ownership, and the staffing numbers tell a mixed story: 3.77 nurse hours per resident day sits just under the national average of 3.86, but weekends dip about 4% below weekdays, and annual turnover hits 58.3% against a national 45.8%. More concerning is the inspection record, 41 deficiencies, 13 of them at harm or jeopardy level, 10 abuse-related, and six fines totaling $363,446, with the most recent inspection dated April 2026. The quality measure rating is strong, but that reflects resident health metrics, not the safety and oversight record a family should weigh most heavily when choosing care.
Flatonia Healthcare Center runs 70 certified beds in Fayette County under corporate for-profit ownership, and its staffing is the one part of the picture that holds up: 4.04 nurse hours per resident day, about 5% above the national average, with weekend coverage dipping only slightly below weekdays. Turnover at 43.6% is a touch better than the national 45.8%. The trouble sits elsewhere. Fifteen deficiencies on the current record, two of them at harm or jeopardy level and two abuse-related, plus two fines totaling $15,098. The most recent inspection was December 4, 2025, so that record is recent. Staffing keeps residents attended to; the inspection history is what a family should ask about directly.
Lone Star Ranch runs 146 beds in Kingsville under corporate ownership, and its numbers tell a mixed story. Nurse staffing sits at 3.22 hours per resident day, roughly 17% under the national average, and weekends dip about 12% below the home's own weekday coverage, so care thins out exactly when families tend to visit. Staff turnover is 43.8%, slightly better than the national rate. The inspection record is the real concern: 23 deficiencies, including one at the harm level and six tied to abuse, with a $8,190 fine and a survey completed in June 2025. Quality measures score well, but that coexists with a two-star inspection history.
Avir At Monahans runs on a government-hospital-district license and 92 certified beds, and its nursing hours come in at 2.74 per resident day, roughly 29% under the national average of 3.86. That thin coverage thins further on weekends, when staffing drops about 9% below its own weekday level, and the aide and nurse turnover rate sits at 74% against a national 45.8%. The record shows 35 deficiencies, none at harm or jeopardy level and none abuse-related, with the most recent inspection in July 2025. Quality measures score well, but the staffing picture is what shapes daily life here.
Uvalde Healthcare and Rehabilitation Center runs 115 certified beds under for-profit LLC ownership, and its staffing is the number that stands out for the wrong reason: 3.38 nurse hours per resident day against a national average of 3.86, with weekends dipping about 9% below its own weekday level. Turnover sits at 53.8%, well above the 45.8% national figure, meaning nearly six in ten staff left within the year. The current inspection record carries 33 deficiencies, six at harm or jeopardy level and three abuse-related, along with five fines totaling $96,040. The most recent inspection was June 11, 2026. Whatever the quality measure score suggests, thin and unstable staffing paired with that deficiency history is what families should weigh.
Port Arthur Nursing and Rehabilitation Center runs 199 certified beds under for-profit partnership ownership, and its numbers split sharply depending on where you look. The quality measure score is perfect, yet nurse staffing sits at 3.06 hours per resident day, roughly 21% under the national average, and weekend coverage drops about 12% below its own weekday level. Turnover lands at 44.3%, close to the national figure, so retention isn't the outlier here. What is: 50 deficiencies on the current record, including five at harm or jeopardy level and 12 tied to abuse, plus four fines totaling $310,553. The last inspection was June 25, 2025. A strong quality score doesn't offset that inspection history.
