Berkley West Healthcare Center

Santa Monica, CA · Los Angeles County

Nurse hours

Staff turnover
55%
Serious cites
0

Berkley West runs about 4.70 nurse hours per resident per day, roughly 22% above the national average, and weekends dip about 13% below its own weekday staffing. That helps explain the staffing rating, but the inspection record pulls the other way: 68 deficiencies on file, including one at the harm or jeopardy level and three tied to abuse, plus a single $101,046 fine. Ownership is for-profit corporate, and turnover sits at 54.7% against a national 45.8%, so aides and nurses are cycling through faster than average. The quality measure score looks strong at 5/5, but that reflects resident care data, not how the building is run or inspected.

Villa Valencia sits in Laguna Hills with 59 certified beds, run by a for-profit limited liability company. Nurse staffing runs 4.47 hours per resident day, about 16% above the national average of 3.86, though weekends drop roughly 9% below the home's own weekday coverage, so care can thin out when families visit. The 42 deficiencies on record include nothing flagged at the harm or jeopardy level and nothing abuse-related. Annual turnover of 45.3% tracks right at the national figure of 45.8%, meaning roughly half the staff still turns over each year. A May 2025 inspection is recent enough to trust, and the county's Orange County market gives you plenty of alternatives worth comparing on weekend coverage alone.

Lake Park Healthcare Center runs 4.63 nurse hours per resident day, roughly 20% above the national average, but that number hides a staffing star rating of just 2 out of 5 and weekend coverage that drops about 13% below its own weekday level. Staff turnover sits at 54.3%, nearly nine points above the national average, meaning aides and nurses are cycling through fairly quickly. The home carries 21 deficiencies on its current record, including one at the harm or jeopardy level, plus four fines totaling $34,228. Its last inspection was November 7, 2024, and the quality measure score of 4 out of 5 stands out against the weaker inspection and staffing marks.

Abuse icon on record

Kei-Ai Los Angeles Healthcare Center runs 300 beds under for-profit LLC ownership, and the staffing numbers are genuinely better than most: 4.45 nurse hours per resident day, roughly 15% above the national average, with weekend coverage dipping only slightly below weekdays. Turnover sits at 40.1%, under the national figure. The inspection record tells a different story. There are 122 deficiencies on file, including six at the harm or jeopardy level and eight tied to abuse, plus two fines totaling $184,989. A recent inspection in February 2026 hasn't wiped that history clean. Plenty of hands on deck, but a documented pattern of serious problems those hands haven't solved.

Special Focus Facility

Bixby Towers runs 99 certified beds in Long Beach, and its nurse staffing sits at 4.26 hours per resident day, roughly 10% above the national average, though weekends dip about 7% below its own weekday levels. Staff turnover is 53.8%, well above the 45.8% national figure, and the inspection record carries 82 deficiencies, including six at the harm or jeopardy level and five tied to abuse, with four fines totaling $114,270. The most recent inspection was August 1, 2025, so the picture is current. Ownership is a for-profit limited liability company. Strong quality measure scores sit alongside a single-star inspection rating, worth asking about directly.
