Briarwood At Timber Ridge runs 4.64 nurse hours per resident per day, roughly a fifth more than the national average, and its staff turnover sits at 28.6 percent against a national 45.8, meaning the people caring for your relative are more likely to still be there next year than at a typical home. Weekend coverage dips about 12 percent below weekdays, so ask how that plays out on a Sunday. The inspection record shows 19 deficiencies, none at the harm level and none abuse-related, with the most recent visit in December 2025. For a 45-bed for-profit, that combination of low turnover and steady survey history is what stands out.

Judson Park Health Center runs on unusually deep staffing for a 96-bed nonprofit: 4.60 nurse hours per resident day, roughly 19 percent above the national average, with weekend coverage dipping only about 10 percent below its own weekday level. Turnover sits at 21.1 percent against a national 45.8 percent, so the people caring for residents tend to stay. The tradeoff shows up in its inspection history, 57 deficiencies on record, three tied to abuse, though none at the harm or jeopardy level, and the most recent inspection was August 2025, so the picture is current. Quality and staffing measures both rate at the top of CMS's scale, while health inspections land mid-range.

Garden Terrace runs about 5.45 nurse hours per resident per day, roughly 41% above the national average, and its staff turnover sits well below the norm, 31.3% against 45.8% nationally. That combination usually points to a home that can hold onto caregivers and keep enough of them on the floor. Weekends thin out somewhat, running about 16% below weekday levels, and the record carries 46 deficiencies, two tied to abuse, though none reached the harm or jeopardy level. The last inspection was June 2025, so the picture is recent. A for-profit limited liability company operates its 70 certified beds.

Transitional Care Of Seattle runs 165 certified beds under for-profit LLC ownership, and its nurse staffing sits at 7.83 hours per resident day, roughly double the national average of 3.86. That's the number driving its staffing score, though weekends dip about 17% below weekday levels, so coverage isn't evenly spread across the week. Staff turnover lands at 37.5%, better than the 45.8% national figure, which matters for continuity of care. The tradeoff shows up in its inspection record: 42 deficiencies, including one at harm or jeopardy level and one abuse-related, with a health inspection rating of 3 out of 5. The most recent inspection was September 23, 2025. Strong staffing and quality scores, but the deficiency history is worth asking about directly.

Fircrest is state-owned and sits at 110 beds in Seattle, and the staffing number is the part that stands out: 9.32 nurse hours per resident day, roughly two and a half times the national average. Weekend coverage slips about 5% below weekday levels, which is mild compared to most homes. Turnover runs 50.5%, a bit above the 45.8% national figure, so you'll want to ask how they hold onto direct-care staff. The inspection record shows 36 deficiencies, none at harm or jeopardy level, though two are abuse-related, worth asking about directly. State surveyors were last in on November 7, 2025, so the record is recent.

Queen Anne Healthcare runs on 4.84 nurse hours per resident day, about 25 percent more staffing than the national average, and its turnover sits at 38.2 percent against a national 45.8 percent, both point to a home that keeps people and has enough of them. The trade-off is consistency on weekends, when hours dip roughly 12 percent below the weekday level. A five-star inspection rating with zero deficiencies at the harm or jeopardy level and none tied to abuse, on a record of 30 total, is a clean if not spotless paper trail. The current inspection is recent, dated May 2026, so what you're seeing is close to present-tense.

Wesley Homes Des Moines Health Center runs on noticeably more nursing hours than most homes, 4.79 per resident day against a national average of 3.86, and its staff tends to stay, with turnover at 30.8% compared to 45.8% nationally. Weekend coverage dips about 11% below its own weekday level, so ask how that plays out on a Sunday. The inspection record shows 52 deficiencies, none at the harm or jeopardy level, though three are abuse-related and worth asking about directly. A February 2026 inspection means the record is recent, and as a church-affiliated nonprofit, there's no ownership chain pulling profits out. The quality measures come in strong.

Richmond Beach Rehab sits in Shoreline with 131 certified beds and a for-profit LLC owner. Nurse staffing runs 4.05 hours per resident day, about 5% above the national average, and turnover at 31% is well below the 45.8% national figure, that kind of retention matters for consistent care. But weekends dip roughly 12% below the home's own weekday coverage, so ask how that gap gets filled. The inspection record shows 27 deficiencies, including one at the harm level and one abuse-related, plus a $44,753 fine. Last inspection was February 2026, so the record is current. Solid quality measures and staffing don't erase those citations.

Covenant Shores runs high on most measures. Nurse staffing sits at 4.41 hours per resident day, roughly 14 percent above the national average, and the quality and staffing stars come in at the top of the scale. Weekend coverage dips about 11 percent below its own weekday level, which is worth knowing if your visits fall on Saturdays or Sundays. Staff turnover is 51 percent, higher than the national 45.8 percent. The current record shows 35 deficiencies, none at harm or jeopardy level, though 4 are abuse-related. The last inspection was February 11, 2026.

The Terraces At Skyline runs 4.60 nurse hours per resident day, roughly 19 percent above the national average, and weekends dip only about 5 percent below its own weekday staffing, a modest gap by industry standards. What holds it back is the inspection record: 55 deficiencies, five of them abuse-related, though none rose to harm or jeopardy level. The last survey was recent, in August 2025, and the two-out-of-five inspection rating reflects those findings rather than any immediate danger. Quality measures and staffing both score four out of five. Nonprofit ownership at 34 beds suggests a small, closely run home; ask specifically about the abuse-related citations and what changed afterward.

Columbia Lutheran Home runs 5.33 nurse hours per resident day, roughly a third more staffing than the national average, and its staff turnover of 41% sits a bit below the national figure. The trade-off shows up in the inspection record: 46 deficiencies on file, including four tied to abuse, though none at the harm or jeopardy level. A March 2025 inspection means the picture is current. Weekend staffing drops about 11% from weekday levels, and while quality measures score well, the inspection history is what keeps this from being a stronger pick. Worth a visit, with questions ready about that abuse category.

Avalon Care Center Federal Way runs 4.28 nurse hours per resident day, roughly 11% above the national average, and its staff turnover of 38.3% sits well below the 45.8% national figure, both signs of a stable floor. Weekend staffing dips about 12% from weekday levels, so coverage thins out on Saturdays and Sundays. The home carries 48 deficiencies on its current record, none at the harm or jeopardy level and none abuse-related, and it was inspected as recently as November 2025. The quality measure rating is strong; the health inspection rating is middling, which is where the deficiency count shows up.

Caroline Kline Galland Home runs on unusually heavy nurse staffing, 6.21 hours per resident day, roughly 61% above the national average, with weekends dipping about 12% below its own weekday pace. That kind of coverage usually shows up in the quality numbers, and it does here: the quality measure rating sits at the top. The tradeoff is on the inspection side, where 35 deficiencies are on record, including one abuse-related finding and none flagged at the harm or jeopardy level. The last survey was in March 2026. This is a nonprofit home in Seattle with strong day-to-day care numbers and a survey history worth asking about directly.

Avamere Rehabilitation of Shoreline runs 4.47 nurse hours per resident day, roughly 16% above the national average, so staffing is the strongest part of the picture here. Weekend coverage, though, drops about 18% below its own weekday level, and turnover sits at 42.6%, slightly better than the 45.8% national figure. What pulls the record down is the inspection side: a 1-out-of-5 health inspection rating and 92 deficiencies on the current record, 14 of them abuse-related, with the most recent inspection in May 2025. None were cited at the harm or jeopardy level. The 5-of-5 quality measure rating contrasts sharply with that inspection history.

Redmond Care And Rehabilitation Center runs about 3.66 nurse hours per resident day, roughly 5% under the national average of 3.86, and weekends dip about 8% below its own weekday staffing. That's the tradeoff you're weighing against a 26.2% turnover rate, well below the 45.8% national figure, meaning the aides and nurses here tend to stay. Its inspection record shows 26 deficiencies, none at the harm or jeopardy level, though one is abuse-related. State surveyors were last in on June 13, 2025, so that picture is current. The for-profit corporate owner runs 139 beds, and the home's quality measure scores are strong. Read the staffing pattern carefully: slightly thin overall, thinner on weekends, but a stable workforce.

North Auburn Care runs 4.06 nurse hours per resident day, about 5% above the national average, and weekend staffing drops roughly 15% below its own weekday level. Turnover sits at 32.9%, well under the national 45.8%. Those numbers look decent on paper, which makes the inspection record the real story here: 103 deficiencies, including five at the harm or jeopardy level and two tied to abuse, with a single $12,035 fine and a 1-out-of-5 inspection rating. The most recent survey was April 2025. This is a for-profit limited liability company with 125 beds, and the gap between its staffing and its inspection history is what a family should weigh most.

Lea Hill runs a lean 36-bed building, and the staffing numbers are the strongest part of the story: 4.85 nurse hours per resident day, roughly a quarter more than the national average. That cushion matters most on weekends, which run about 14 percent below the home's own weekday level, still better than most places, but the dip is real. The rest is mixed. Forty-eight point nine percent annual turnover sits slightly above the national rate, and 39 deficiencies on record include one at the harm level and three tied to abuse, which is a lot for a building this size. Inspections were recent, in September 2025.

Mirabella runs 4.38 nurse hours per resident day, roughly 13% above the national average, and weekend coverage only dips about 12% below its weekday level, a smaller drop than many homes show. Staff turnover sits at 36.6%, well under the 45.8% national figure, which matters for residents who need consistent faces. The tradeoff shows up in its inspection history: 48 deficiencies on record, including two at the harm level and five tied to abuse, with $23,463 in fines across two events. The most recent inspection was June 27, 2025. Strong staffing and a nonprofit owner don't erase that record; they just mean care is likely well-covered day to day even as the compliance side carries real problems.

Kin On Health Care Center runs a nonprofit home with 100 certified beds in Seattle, and its staffing is the strongest part of the story: 4.56 nurse hours per resident day, roughly 18% above the national average. Weekend coverage dips about 12% below its own weekday level, but annual turnover sits at 35.3%, noticeably better than the 45.8% national figure. Then there's the inspection record, which is where things get harder to square. Fifty deficiencies on the current record, two of them at the harm or jeopardy level and five abuse-related, with two fines totaling $19,468. The last inspection was February 2025. Strong staffing and a recent, difficult survey can coexist at the same address.

Cedar River Healthcare Center sits in Renton with 60 certified beds and a corporate for-profit owner. The staffing numbers are the strongest part of the story: 5.18 nurse hours per resident day, well above the national average of 3.86, with turnover at 39.3%, better than the 45.8% national figure. That's real coverage, though weekends run about 17% thinner than weekdays. The inspection record tells a different story. Thirty deficiencies on file, including two at the harm level and two tied to abuse, plus a $74,815 fine. The most recent inspection was April 2025, so the record is current. Strong daily staffing and a troubled compliance history are both true here, the question is whether the care at the bedside reflects the hours or the citations.
