Cedar Crest runs on church-affiliated nonprofit ownership in Janesville, and the staffing numbers stand out: 5.45 nurse hours per resident day, roughly 41% above the national average of 3.86. Weekend coverage dips about 6% below its own weekday level, so care isn't perfectly level across the week, and turnover sits at 41.2%, better than the 45.8% national figure but still worth asking about. Inspections are recent, and the record shows five deficiencies, none at the harm or jeopardy level, though two are abuse-related. That's the tension here: strong staffing and a clean harm record alongside a small cluster of abuse citations a family should ask about directly.

Rock Haven is county-owned, and that shows up in the staffing numbers: 5.79 nurse hours per resident day against a national average of 3.86. Turnover sits at 23.4%, roughly half the national rate, so the people caring for residents tend to stay. Weekends run about 7% thinner than weekdays, which is worth asking about if your family visits then.
The record isn't clean. Twenty-three deficiencies, including one at the harm level and four tied to abuse, plus a $42,560 fine. The last inspection was in January 2026, so that picture is current rather than stale. Strong staffing and steady retention are real strengths; the inspection history is the counterweight, and it's the part I'd want to read closely before deciding.

Mercy Manor runs on 8.47 nurse hours per resident day, more than double the national average, and that staffing shows up in the ratings, four stars for staffing, five for quality measures. The catch is consistency: weekend coverage drops roughly 17% below what the home provides on weekdays, so care depends on when you visit. Nine deficiencies sit on the current record, one serious enough to cause harm and two tied to abuse, plus a single $53,847 fine. Last inspection was July 2025, so the record is recent. A nonprofit with 28 beds can know every resident well. It can also struggle to cover a weekend.

Oak Park Place of Janesville runs 35 certified beds under corporate ownership, and the staffing picture is mixed in a way that matters. Total nurse coverage sits at 4.00 hours per resident day, a bit above the national average, but weekends drop roughly 11% below the home's own weekday levels, and annual turnover hits 76.7% against a national figure of 45.8%, meaning most of the people caring for residents this year likely won't be there next year. The inspection record is the bigger concern: 33 deficiencies, three serious enough to involve harm or jeopardy, and two tied to abuse, with the most recent inspection in June 2025.

St Elizabeth Nursing Home runs on 2.96 nurse hours per resident per day, roughly a quarter below the national average, and weekends drop about 14% below its own weekday levels, so the thinnest coverage lands when families tend to visit. Staff turnover sits at 57.8%, well above the 45.8% national figure, which means caregivers are cycling through faster than residents can build familiarity with them. The inspection record shows 59 deficiencies, including 2 at harm or jeopardy level and 6 tied to abuse, with two fines totaling $31,171 and a survey as recent as April 2026. All three CMS star ratings, health inspection, quality measures, and staffing, sit at 2 out of 5.
