Staff turnover

Edgewood Convalescent Home holds 56 certified beds in Clayton County and is run by a for-profit corporation. Its recent inspection history is clean: three deficiencies on record, none at the harm or jeopardy level and none tied to abuse, with a survey completed in September 2025. Staff turnover sits at 29.4 percent, comfortably under the national 45.8 percent, which suggests people tend to stay. The trade-off is raw staffing volume, 3.39 nurse hours per resident day, roughly 12 percent under the national average, and weekends drop about 17 percent below the home's own weekday coverage. Those weekend gaps are worth asking about directly.

Evans Senior Living Community runs 43 beds in Cresco under nonprofit ownership, and its inspection record is the strongest thing about it: one deficiency on file, nothing at the harm level, and a survey completed in August 2025. The staffing picture is more mixed. At 3.66 nurse hours per resident day, it sits about 5% under the national average, and weekends drop roughly 16% below its own weekday coverage, the stretch when families often notice less attention. What offsets that is retention: 28.9% turnover against a 45.8% national rate means the people caring for your relative are more likely to still be there next year. Low deficiencies, stable staff, slightly thin weekend hours.

Elkader Care Center runs 40 beds as a for-profit LLC, and its inspection record is genuinely strong, a 4-out-of-5 health inspection rating with a recent survey from December 2025. But look at the direct-care picture: 3.73 nurse hours per resident per day sits slightly under the national average of 3.86, and weekends drop about 17% below the home's own weekday staffing. Annual turnover of 54.5% tops the national 45.8%, which means the people helping your relative bathe and eat are changing often. Four deficiencies are on record, one involving harm or jeopardy and one tied to abuse. Good inspections, thinner hands-on coverage, worth asking about.

New Hampton Nursing & Rehab Center

New Hampton Nursing & Rehab runs 46 beds as a for-profit corporation, and its staffing sits at 3.32 nurse hours per resident day, roughly 14% under the national average of 3.86. Weekends thin out further, about 17% below the home's own weekday level, so coverage is lightest exactly when families tend to visit. Turnover is the bright spot: 27.6% against a national 45.8%, which suggests aides and nurses tend to stay. But the current inspection record includes five deficiencies, one at the harm or jeopardy level and three tied to abuse, with the most recent inspection in July 2025. Staff retention helps; the survey history is what a family should ask about directly.

Great River Care Center in McGregor runs 39 beds under for-profit LLC ownership, and its recent inspections look solid, four stars for health inspections and quality measures, with the last survey in August 2025. The staffing picture is where it gets shakier. At 3.42 nurse hours per resident day, it sits about 12% under the national average, and weekends drop roughly 16% below its own weekday levels, so coverage thins out exactly when families tend to visit. Annual turnover of 63% is well above the 45.8% national figure, which matters for continuity of care. Five deficiencies sit on the current record, one serious enough to involve harm or jeopardy, plus a single $8,281 fine.
