Fairmont Medical Center runs 30 beds as a nonprofit, and the staffing numbers are the first thing that stands out: 5.33 nurse hours per resident day against a national average of 3.86. That's roughly 38% more hands-on time than the typical home, though weekends dip about 12% below its own weekday level, so coverage isn't perfectly flat. Turnover sits at 33.3%, better than the 45.8% national figure. Six deficiencies are on the current record, none at the harm level and none abuse-related, with the last inspection in August 2025. All three CMS star ratings, inspections, quality measures, and staffing, come in at 5 out of 5.

Majestic Care of Manchin runs 41 beds in Fairmont under state government ownership, and its inspection history is the strongest part of the picture, a recent April 2025 survey and 35 deficiencies on record with none rising to harm or jeopardy level. Staffing is where it falls apart: the federal staffing rating sits at 1 out of 5, meaning nurse hours per resident come in well below what CMS considers adequate. Quality measures land at 2 out of 5, and there's one abuse-related deficiency and a $5,244 fine on the books. A clean inspection record matters, but thin staffing shapes daily life more than anything else here.

Pierpont Center runs about 2.91 nurse staffing hours per resident day, roughly a quarter below the national average of 3.86, and weekend coverage drops another 9% below its own weekday levels. That thin staffing shows up in the 2-out-of-5 CMS staffing rating. Turnover sits at 35.7%, better than the national 45.8%, so there's some consistency in who's on the floor. What stands out is the record: 60 deficiencies, three tied to abuse, and a 2-out-of-5 inspection rating despite the January 2026 survey being recent. The 5-out-of-5 quality measure score reflects clinical metrics, not hands-on care. A corporation owns it, and one $14,645 fine is on file.

St. Barbara's sits at 3.85 nurse hours per resident day, essentially matching the national figure of 3.86, but that average hides a catch: weekend staffing drops roughly 10% below the home's own weekday coverage. Staff turnover runs 57.6% against a national 45.8%, so nearly six in ten workers left over the year. The inspection record shows 22 deficiencies, none at the harm or jeopardy level, with one abuse-related citation. Federal ratings split sharply here, four stars each for health inspections and quality measures, only two for staffing. The most recent inspection was August 2025.

Tygart Center runs on thin nursing coverage. At 3.06 nurse hours per resident per day, it sits roughly 21% under the national average, and weekends dip about 10% below its own weekday level, which matters, because that's when families tend to visit and notice. The inspection record is heavy: 60 deficiencies, including one at the harm or jeopardy level and five tied to abuse. Turnover at 41.6% is slightly better than the national rate, though that's cold comfort when staffing hours are this low. Ownership is for-profit corporate, and the last inspection was February 2026. The quality measure score looks strong on paper, but quality measures are self-reported, staffing and inspections are where you see the real picture.

Fairmont Rehabilitation and Healthcare Center runs on 2.76 nurse staffing hours per resident day, roughly a quarter less than the national average, and weekend coverage drops further below its own weekday level. That thin staffing sits alongside a 68.3% annual turnover rate, well above the 45.8% national figure, so the aides and nurses in the building keep changing. The inspection record is where it gets serious: 77 deficiencies on file, three at the harm or jeopardy level and seven tied to abuse, with a $17,959 fine. CMS has placed it in the Special Focus Facility program, which is reserved for homes with a pattern of persistent problems. Family considering this one should ask hard questions.
