Every Medicare-certified nursing home in Utah, graded on inspections, staffing, turnover
and enforcement history.
6 homes in the state sit in the federal Special Focus programme.
Monument Healthcare Murray Creek runs 184 certified beds in Millcreek under for-profit LLC ownership, and the numbers pull in two directions. Its quality measure rating is perfect, but that same record carries 50 deficiencies, including three at the harm or jeopardy level and five tied to abuse, plus two fines totaling $120,948, and the most recent inspection was June 2025. Nurse staffing sits just under the national average at 3.82 hours per resident day, and weekends drop about 12% below the home's own weekday levels. Turnover, at 42.2%, is actually a bit better than the 45.8% national figure. The inspection side is the part worth asking hard questions about.
Sandy Health and Rehab runs 141 certified beds under corporate ownership, and the numbers raise real questions. Nurse staffing sits at 3.30 hours per resident day, roughly 15% under the national average, and weekend coverage drops about 14% below what the home staffs on weekdays, which matters most when families visit and emergencies happen. Annual turnover of 69.7% is well above the national 45.8%, so the people caring for your relative are likely to change often. The inspection record is the harder read: 74 deficiencies, 13 at harm or jeopardy level, 5 abuse-related, and three fines totaling $89,798, with the most recent inspection in April 2025. Quality measures score well, but that's a narrow slice of the picture.
Rocky Mountain Care's Cottage On Vine is individually owned for profit, and the numbers show where that leaves residents. Nurse staffing sits at 3.43 hours per resident day, about 11% under the national average, and it thins out further on weekends, roughly 12% below the home's own weekday coverage. Staff turnover is the sharper problem: 70.4% annually, well above the 45.8% national figure, which means caregivers change constantly. The inspection record backs that up, 57 deficiencies, 10 serious enough to reach harm or jeopardy, 9 tied to abuse, and $78,946 in fines across two penalties. Quality scores look strong on paper, but a March 2025 inspection and a 2/5 staffing rating tell the more useful story.
Millcreek Rehabilitation and Nursing is a 61-bed county-owned home in Salt Lake City, and its inspection record is the first thing you'd want to look at. Twenty-nine deficiencies, three of them serious enough to put residents in harm's way, and four tied to abuse. The health inspection rating sits at 1 out of 5, with a $25,441 fine on the books and a survey completed in late March 2025.
Staffing is the other weak spot. At 2.25 nurse hours per resident per day, it runs about 42% under the national average, and weekends drop roughly another 13% below the home's own weekday levels. Turnover of 52.4% exceeds the national figure, and the staffing rating lands at 2 out of 5.
Meadow Brook runs on a knife's edge with staffing, and the numbers show it. Total nurse coverage sits just under the national average, but weekends drop roughly 19% below the home's own weekday levels, and annual turnover hits 77.8% against a national average of 45.8%, meaning the people caring for residents are, more often than not, new to the building. The inspection record is the harder problem: 59 deficiencies on file, 8 of them serious enough to put residents in harm's way and 9 tied to abuse, with a $31,331 fine attached. A recent inspection in November 2025 and a government-hospital-district owner don't erase that pattern.
Pine Creek Rehabilitation and Nursing runs 34 certified beds in Salt Lake City under corporate ownership, and the staffing numbers are the first thing to notice: 2.81 nurse hours per resident day, roughly 27% under the national average of 3.86, with weekends running about 9% thinner than weekdays. Turnover sits at 80% against a national 45.8%, which means the aides and nurses caring for your relative are likely newer than the building itself. The inspection record shows 41 deficiencies, including 3 at harm or jeopardy level and 6 tied to abuse, plus one fine of $56,121. A recent October 2025 inspection is the one bright spot, ask what changed since.
Maple Ridge runs on 2.28 nurse hours per resident day, roughly 41% under the national average of 3.86, and weekends dip about 6% below its own weekday coverage. Staff turnover sits at 72.4% against a national 45.8%, so the people around your family member change often. The inspection record backs that up: 34 deficiencies, including three at the harm level and four tied to abuse, with two fines totaling $11,887. Salt Lake City-county ownership doesn't change the arithmetic. The 4/5 quality measure score reflects how residents are doing on paper, but the last inspection was June 2025 and the staffing rating is 1/5. Worth asking hard questions before a move-in.
Crestwood runs on notably thin nursing coverage: 2.95 hours per resident day, roughly a quarter below the national average, and weekends drop about 10% below what the home already provides on weekdays. Inspectors have cited 45 deficiencies, including two at the harm or jeopardy level and three tied to abuse, with one fine of $10,839 and a health inspection rating of 1 out of 5; the last inspection was January 2024. Staff turnover sits at 59% against a national 45.8%, so the people providing care change often. The quality measure score of 5 out of 5 stands out against all of this, a gap worth asking the administrator about directly.
Bella Terra St George runs 149 certified beds under for-profit LLC ownership, and the staffing numbers are where the trouble starts: 2.99 nurse hours per resident day against a national average of 3.86, with weekends running about 14% thinner than weekdays. Annual turnover hits 64.8%, well above the 45.8% national figure, so the people caring for residents keep changing. The inspection record shows 64 deficiencies, 12 of them at harm or jeopardy level and 7 tied to abuse, with $81,346 in fines across two penalties. A recent inspection date doesn't erase that history. The quality measure score looks fine on paper; the direct-care and safety record is what families actually live with.
Spanish Fork Rehabilitation and Nursing runs on 2.74 nurse staffing hours per resident day, roughly 29% under the national average of 3.86, and weekends dip about 5% below its own weekday level. That thin coverage sits behind a 69.6% annual turnover rate, well above the 45.8% national figure, so the aides and nurses at the bedside are often new and still learning the residents. Inspectors last visited in November 2025 and logged 10 deficiencies, including 2 at the harm or jeopardy level and 3 tied to abuse, with $69,083 in fines across two cases. State inspectors and quality measures both score well above average, but those snapshots can't offset day-to-day staffing this lean.
Four Corners Regional Care Center runs on 2.91 nursing hours per resident day, roughly a quarter below the national average, and weekend coverage drops about 12% below what it manages on weekdays. With 67.4% of staff turning over each year, well above the 45.8% national figure, that thin coverage is coming from a constantly changing workforce. The county runs the place, and its inspection record shows 26 deficiencies, including two at the harm level and two tied to abuse, plus one fine of $68,471. The last inspection was in January 2025, so the record is current. Quality scores look decent, but staffing is where the risk sits.
San Rafael Health and Rehabilitation runs on county money and 51 beds in Ferron, and its staffing hours land right at the national average, close enough that there's no real cushion. What stands out is the churn: more than half the nursing staff turns over in a year, and weekend coverage drops about 19% below weekday levels. The inspection record is where things get serious. Twenty-seven deficiencies, six of them involving harm or jeopardy, four tied to abuse, plus two fines near $29,000 and a spot in CMS's Special Focus Facility program. Inspectors were last there in November 2024. County ownership doesn't change what those numbers say.
Mountain View Health Services is a 155-bed for-profit in Ogden, and the numbers behind its record are hard to look past. Nurse staffing sits at 3.08 hours per resident per day against a national average of 3.86, and more than half the nursing staff turned over in the past year. The home carries 101 deficiencies on its current record, 22 of them serious enough to involve harm or jeopardy, plus seven tied to abuse. Three CMS fines total $150,781, and the federal government has placed it in the Special Focus Facility program, which is reserved for the country's most persistently troubled homes. If you're considering this one, ask what's changed since the January 2026 inspection.
Mission At Alpine Rehabilitation Center is a 52-bed nonprofit home in Pleasant Grove that federal regulators have placed in the Special Focus Facility program, the designation CMS reserves for the homes it considers among the poorest performers in the country. The inspection record explains why: 44 deficiencies, eight serious enough to cause harm or jeopardy, seven tied to abuse, and $125,737 in fines across two actions. Staffing sits at 3.13 nurse hours per resident day, roughly 19% under the national average, with weekends about 12% thinner than weekdays and turnover at 65.1% against a national 45.8%. The quality measure stars look strong, but that's what families see on paper; the staffing and inspection numbers are what happen on the floor.
Provo Rehabilitation and Nursing runs 220 certified beds under corporate ownership, and its staffing sits at 3.88 nurse hours per resident day, essentially the national average, though weekends drop about 11% below its own weekday level. The bigger issue is what inspectors keep finding: 75 deficiencies on the current record, 27 of them at harm or jeopardy level and 12 tied to abuse, with two fines totaling $82,617. Staff turnover hits 54.5% against a national 45.8%, and CMS has placed the home in its Special Focus Facility program, a designation reserved for homes with a persistent pattern of poor care. A 1/5 inspection rating and a last visit in October 2024 tell you the oversight is ongoing.
Red Cliffs runs 3.46 nurse hours per resident day against a national average of 3.86, and weekends dip about 9% below its own weekday numbers. The bigger problem is who's still there to provide that care: annual turnover hits 73.8%, well above the 45.8% national figure. Inspectors have cited 63 deficiencies, 11 of them at harm or jeopardy level and 9 tied to abuse, with a $153,114 fine and a June 2024 inspection on record. CMS has placed the home in its Special Focus Facility program, a designation reserved for the country's poorest performers. A for-profit LLC operates it.
Monument Healthcare South Salt Lake is a 140-bed hospital-district home that the federal government has flagged for its Special Focus Facility program, a designation reserved for the homes with the most persistent compliance problems. The record backs that up: 57 deficiencies, nine of them serious enough to endanger residents, six tied to abuse, and two fines totaling $36,546. Its last inspection was in June 2025.
Nursing hours come in slightly under the national average, and weekends run about 15% thinner than weekdays, when supervision is already stretched. The quality-measure score looks good on paper, but that number reflects resident assessments, not the day-to-day care and oversight problems regulators keep finding here. Staff turnover sits just above the national rate.
