Crosslands runs 60 certified beds as a nonprofit corporation, and the staffing numbers stand out: 5.58 total nurse hours per resident day against a national average of 3.86, roughly 44% higher. Weekend staffing dips about 11% below its own weekday level, which is worth knowing if your visits fall on Saturdays or Sundays. Annual turnover sits at 20%, less than half the national figure of 45.8%, so the people caring for residents tend to stay. The record isn't spotless: eight deficiencies, one at the harm or jeopardy level and three flagged as abuse-related, plus a single fine of $12,735. A February 2026 inspection is recent.

Valley View Haven runs on unusually steady staffing for a nursing home: about 4.83 nurse hours per resident day, roughly a quarter more than the national average, and its 20.8% turnover is less than half the typical 45.8%. Weekend coverage dips about 12% below weekday levels, worth asking about if your family visits then. The 20 deficiencies on record include one abuse-related citation, though none rose to harm or jeopardy, and the most recent inspection was March 2026. As a nonprofit with 155 beds, it doesn't answer to shareholders, which tends to show up in numbers like these.

Glen At Willow Valley runs 262 certified beds as a nonprofit, and the staffing numbers are the story here: 4.45 nurse hours per resident day, roughly 15% above the national average. Just as telling, annual turnover sits at 28.9% against a national average of 45.8%, that stability matters more than any single inspection result, because consistent staff know the residents. Weekend coverage dips about 8% below its own weekday level, so ask how that plays out on a Sunday afternoon. The current record shows one deficiency, none at harm level and none abuse-related, with an inspection dated December 2025. Medicare's own ratings land at five stars across health inspections, quality measures, and staffing.

Continuing Care at Maris Grove runs about five nurse hours per resident per day, roughly 29% above the national average, and weekend staffing dips only slightly below its weekday level. Staff turnover sits at 33.3%, well under the 45.8% national figure. Those are real strengths. What pulls the record down is the inspection history: 15 deficiencies on file, two of them serious enough to involve harm or jeopardy, plus two fines totaling $22,737. The most recent inspection was in February 2026, so the picture is current. A nonprofit with strong staffing and low turnover can still carry a flawed survey record, and here that tension is the whole story.

The Preston Health Center runs on 6.41 nurse hours per resident per day, roughly two and a half hours more than the typical American nursing home. Weekend coverage dips about 10% from its own weekday level, which is worth asking about if your family visits on Saturdays or Sundays. Staff turnover sits at 20.5%, less than half the national figure, so the people caring for residents tend to stay. The inspection record shows five deficiencies, one serious enough to involve harm or jeopardy, and one fine of $8,018. Its last inspection was in December 2025, so the picture is current.

Willow Brooke Court is small, 20 certified beds, and it's run by a nonprofit corporation, which tends to show up in staffing. Nurse hours per resident day land at 3.81, right about at the national average of 3.86, with weekend coverage only about 2% thinner than weekdays. That steadiness matters more than the headline number. Staff turnover is 28.1%, well under the national 45.8%, so the people caring for residents tend to stick around. Four deficiencies sit on the current record, none at the harm level and none abuse-related, and the most recent inspection was March 27, 2025. The low deficiency count and steady staffing are what's actually behind the numbers here.

Oakview Terrace runs on 4.44 nurse hours per resident per day, roughly 15% above the national average, and its staff turnover sits at 23.4%, about half the national rate of 45.8%. That kind of retention matters more than any single inspection score, because consistent caregivers notice changes in residents sooner. The trade-off shows up in the inspection history: 11 deficiencies on record, including two at the harm or jeopardy level and one tied to abuse, plus a $10,839 fine. Weekend staffing also dips about 9% below its own weekday level, so coverage isn't perfectly even across the week. The most recent state visit was June 26, 2025, so the picture is current. Strong staffing and quality numbers, with real inspection problems worth asking about directly.

Nurse staffing here runs about 8.5 hours per resident day, more than double the national average, and it holds up on weekends rather than collapsing the way it does at many homes. Staff turnover sits at 34%, below the 45.8% national figure, and the single deficiency on the current record involves no harm or jeopardy to residents, with nothing abuse-related. The last inspection was in August 2025, so the record is recent. This is a 23-bed nonprofit unit, small enough that staffing ratios matter more than they would in a larger building, and the numbers suggest they're being kept up.

Staffing is the strongest thing going for the George E. Wahlen Ogden Veterans Home, 5.05 nurse hours per resident day against a national average of 3.86, with weekend coverage dipping only about 12% below weekdays. Turnover sits at 26.7%, well under the 45.8% national figure, so the people caring for residents tend to stay. The trouble is on the inspection side. Twelve deficiencies on the current record, three of them serious enough to put residents at risk of harm, two tied to abuse, and a $12,363 fine, with the most recent inspection in August 2024. Strong daily care, but a survey history that a family should ask hard questions about.

Westminster At Lake Ridge runs 5.14 nurse hours per resident per day against a national average of 3.86, and its weekend staffing only dips about 9% below weekdays, a smaller drop than many homes show. Staff turnover of 28.8% sits well under the 45.8% national figure, which matters for consistency of care. But the inspection record isn't clean: 28 deficiencies, including one at the harm level and two tied to abuse, with a single fine of $8,281. The last full inspection was June 2022, so that picture is now more than two years old. Strong staffing and quality numbers, a thinner margin on the inspection side.

Columbia Health Care Center in Wyocena is county-owned, and the numbers back up what that stability tends to buy. Nurses provide about 4.71 hours of care per resident each day, roughly 22 percent more than the national average, and staff turnover sits at 21.3 percent against a national figure near 46 percent, so the people caring for your relative are likely to still be there next year. Weekend coverage dips only slightly below weekday levels, which matters because that's where shortfalls usually hide. One deficiency on the current record, none involving harm or abuse, and an inspection from April 2026.

Bradley Court runs lean on nurse hours, 3.16 per resident per day, roughly 18% under the national average, and weekends get about 10% less attention than weekdays. What offsets that is unusual stability: staff turnover sits at 13.5% against a national average near 46%, meaning the people who are there tend to stay. The 20 deficiencies on file include none at the harm level and none tied to abuse, and the most recent inspection was in March 2025. It's a for-profit LLC with 56 beds. Fewer hands, but consistent ones, and a clean recent record.

La Palma Nursing Center runs on unusually heavy staffing for a 72-bed for-profit home in Anaheim, 5.68 nurse hours per resident day, roughly 47% above the national average, and turnover at 27.3% sits well under the 45.8% national figure. Weekend coverage does dip about 12% below its own weekday level, so ask how that plays out on Saturdays and Sundays.
The 62 deficiencies on record look alarming until you notice none reached harm or jeopardy, though two are abuse-related and worth asking about directly. A September 2025 inspection is recent, and the 5/5 quality measure rating suggests clinical outcomes are holding up.

The Dorothy & Joseph Goldberg Healthcare Center runs on 5.59 nurse hours per resident day, roughly 45% above the national figure of 3.86, and it holds that staffing with a 23.3% turnover rate, about half the national average of 45.8%. Weekend coverage dips only about 9% below its own weekday level, which is a modest gap by industry standards. Thirty deficiencies sit on the current record, none at the harm or jeopardy level and none abuse-related; the most recent inspection was July 24, 2025. This is a nonprofit corporation with 58 certified beds in Encinitas, and the numbers point to steady, well-funded care rather than a building skating by on minimums.

San Luis Transitional Care is a small for-profit home, 23 beds, with a recent inspection and a clean record on serious problems: seven deficiencies total, none causing harm or jeopardy, none tied to abuse. Its inspection and quality measure ratings both come in at the top of CMS's scale, and staff turnover runs slightly below the national average. The catch is staffing. CMS rates that dimension at the bottom of its scale, which matters more in a 23-bed home, where there's less slack to absorb a callout or a heavy shift. Families weighing this one should ask directly how many aides are on the floor at night and on weekends, because the paperwork looks strong and the coverage is the open question.

Morton Bakar Center in Hayward holds 97 certified beds and is run by a for-profit corporation. Its most striking number is staff retention: turnover sits at 14.9%, well under the 45.8% national average, which matters because consistent caregivers know their residents. Total nurse staffing comes in at 3.73 hours per resident day, just under the national figure of 3.86, and weekends run roughly 14% lighter than weekdays, a dip worth asking about. The inspection record is clean where it counts: four deficiencies total, none at harm or jeopardy level, none abuse-related, with the last inspection in September 2024.

Weekend coverage does dip about 11 percent below weekday levels, worth asking about. Inspectors have cited 12 deficiencies, none at the level of actual harm or jeopardy, though two involve abuse, which is a category families should ask about directly. The last full inspection was April 23, 2026, so the record is recent, and the home holds top federal marks across health inspections, quality measures, and staffing alike.

Nine deficiencies appear on the current record, none at the harm or jeopardy level and none abuse-related, with the last inspection completed January 31, 2025.
