Good Samaritan Society - Beatrice runs an 80-bed nonprofit home where the staff tends to stay. Annual turnover of 16.1% is roughly a third of the national average, which matters more than any single inspection result, it means the people caring for residents know the building and know them. Nurse staffing sits just under the national average at 3.74 hours per resident day, and weekends run about 13% leaner than weekdays, so afternoons and Saturdays are the thinner stretches to ask about. The record shows 14 deficiencies with none at the harm level and none abuse-related, and the last inspection was in January 2026, so the picture is current. Solid nursing hours, low turnover, no serious findings.

Good Samaritan Society - Atwood runs a tight ship on retention: 22.2% annual turnover against a national average of 45.8% means aides and nurses tend to stay, and that kind of continuity matters for residents who need familiar faces. The staffing rating reflects that stability, though total nurse hours of 3.58 per resident day sit about 7% under the national figure, with weekends running roughly 11% lighter than weekdays. The inspection record is where it gets harder to explain. Twenty-six deficiencies, four at harm or jeopardy level, two tied to abuse, and $68,956 in fines across three penalties, all reflected in a one-star health inspection rating despite a June 2025 survey. The quality measure score sits at two stars. Strong retention and a clean staffing score don't offset a record like that.

Good Samaritan Society - Hastings Village is a 108-bed nonprofit in Adams County, and its numbers tell two different stories. Nurse staffing sits at 3.62 hours per resident day, about 6% under the national average, and weekends drop roughly 13% below the home's own weekday coverage, a pattern worth asking about, since falls and infections don't take Saturdays off. Staff turnover, at 44.9%, is actually a hair better than the national rate. The bigger concern is the inspection record: 21 deficiencies, four of them serious enough to involve harm or jeopardy, plus two fines totaling $39,704. The most recent inspection was in March 2025, so the picture is current, not stale. Quality and staffing measures both rate well; the health inspection side is where this home keeps getting caught.

Miller Pointe runs on unusually steady staff. Aide and nurse turnover sits at 21.9% against a national average of 45.8%, and total nurse staffing of 4.34 hours per resident day clears the national figure by roughly 12%, though weekend coverage thins out about 9% below the home's own weekday level. The trouble is everything else. Sixteen deficiencies sit on the current record, two of them at harm or jeopardy level and one tied to abuse, with a $35,535 fine and a December 2025 inspection that produced a 2-star health inspection rating. Good staffing can't offset a survey history like that, which is why the overall picture lands closer to average than the 5-star staffing number suggests.

Good Samaritan Society - Stillwater runs a nonprofit shop with 50 beds, and its nurse staffing sits at 4.09 hours per resident day, roughly 6% above the national average. That's the strongest part of the picture, though weekend coverage drops about 12% below its own weekday level, and annual turnover hits 51.2% against a national 45.8%, so the people delivering that care keep changing. The current record carries 28 deficiencies, one serious enough to involve harm or jeopardy, with no abuse findings. The last inspection came in February 2026, so the state's look is recent. Quality measure scores land at 2 out of 5 stars, which is where the lower grade comes from, decent hands-on hours, weaker measured outcomes.

Good Samaritan Society - Battle Lake is a small nonprofit home, 51 beds, in Otter Tail County, and its inspection record is the strongest thing it has going. Four deficiencies on file, none at the harm level, none abuse-related, and a fresh inspection from November 2025. Where it slips is staffing: 3.62 nurse hours per resident day sits about 6% under the national average, and weekends run roughly 15% lighter than the home's own weekdays, which is worth asking about if your family tends to visit Saturday or Sunday. Annual turnover of 55.6% is well above the 45.8% national figure and tells you aides and nurses cycle through here faster than average.

Good Samaritan Society - International Falls runs a tight ship on staffing, clocking 4.08 nurse hours per resident day, about 6% above the national average, and turnover at 43.3% edges out the national rate of 45.8%. That staffing consistency shows in the top-tier CMS rating for it. Where the picture muddies is weekends: coverage drops roughly 18% below the home's own weekday level, which matters for a 54-bed nonprofit. The inspection record shows 30 deficiencies, one serious enough to reach harm or jeopardy level, though none tied to abuse, and a single fine of $8,190. Quality measures sit lower than staffing at 2 out of 5 stars, suggesting clinical outcomes aren't keeping pace with the hours worked.

Good Samaritan Society-Westbrook runs 32 certified beds as a nonprofit corporation, and its staffing story is mixed. At 3.55 nurse hours per resident day, it sits about 8% under the national average of 3.86, and weekends drop roughly 16% below its own weekday level, so coverage thins out exactly when families tend to visit. Turnover is the bright spot: 29% against a national 45.8% means aides and nurses here tend to stay, which matters for consistency of care. On inspections, the record shows 14 deficiencies with none at harm or jeopardy level and nothing abuse-related, most recently surveyed March 2026. Quality measures score low, so ask what those specifically reflect.

Good Samaritan Society - Bloomfield runs 70 certified beds as a nonprofit, and its clinical quality scores are genuinely strong, a five out of five on CMS quality measures. The staffing picture is thinner than that suggests. At 3.33 nurse hours per resident day, it sits about 14 percent under the national average, and weekends drop roughly 18 percent below its own weekday level, so coverage depends on when you visit. Turnover at 56.5 percent runs well above the 45.8 percent national figure. The current record carries 20 deficiencies, none at harm or jeopardy level, though two are abuse-related. That July 2025 inspection is recent, and the two-star health inspection rating reflects it.

St Vincent's in Bismarck has a staffing story that looks fine on paper, 4.12 nurse hours per resident day, about 7% above the national average, and a compliance story that doesn't. CMS has placed it in the Special Focus Facility program, the agency's watchlist for homes with a pattern of serious problems, and the record shows why: 35 deficiencies, three at the level that caused actual harm or put residents in immediate jeopardy, and four tied to abuse. Two fines totaling $44,606. Weekend staffing drops roughly 17% below the home's own weekday level, and 42.9% of staff turned over last year, slightly better than average, but still nearly half the workforce. Inspectors were last in on April 3, 2025.

Good Samaritan Society Scotland runs 45 beds as a nonprofit, and its inspection record is genuinely strong, a five-star health inspection rating with just five deficiencies on file, none of them causing harm, and a survey completed as recently as March 2025. Staffing is where the picture gets more mixed: 3.52 nurse hours per resident day sits about 9% under the national average, and weekends run roughly 15% thinner than weekdays, so coverage isn't evenly spread across the week. Turnover lands at 45.5%, essentially matching the national rate. Two abuse-related deficiencies appear on the record despite the clean harm-free count, which is worth asking about directly.

Good Samaritan Society's St Martin Village runs 60 certified beds in Rapid City under nonprofit ownership, and its staffing numbers are a mixed picture. Nurses provide 3.73 hours per resident day, about 3% under the national average, and weekend coverage drops roughly 16% below what the home staffs on weekdays, so the hours get thinnest exactly when families tend to visit. Annual turnover sits at 60% against a 45.8% national figure, meaning most of the aides and nurses at the bedside are relatively new. The inspection record is the other thing to weigh. State surveyors last visited in March 2025 and logged 19 deficiencies, none serious enough to cause harm or put anyone in immediate jeopardy, though two are abuse-related, worth asking about directly.

Good Samaritan - Red Oak runs on a stable, non-profit operation with unusually low turnover, 17.9% against a national average near 46%, and weekday nurse staffing that earns a solid federal rating. The problem sits squarely in its inspection history: 34 deficiencies on the current record, including three at the harm or jeopardy level and four tied to abuse, plus a $29,894 fine. Weekend coverage drops roughly 21% below weekday levels, and overall nurse hours per resident sit about 15% under the national average. The last inspection closed in April 2026. Staff consistency is a real strength here, but the harm-level and abuse findings are the kind of thing families should ask about directly before deciding.

Good Samaritan Society in Oberlin runs a tight ship on paper with 4.35 nursing hours per resident each day, about 13% above the national average. But that staffing edge erodes on weekends, which run roughly 17% below weekday levels, and annual turnover sits at 60.9%, well above the 45.8% national figure, meaning the faces your family member sees may change often. The inspection record is the harder read here: 32 deficiencies, including three at harm or jeopardy level and five tied to abuse. With one fine of $20,207 and a November 2025 inspection, the home has recent oversight. For a 45-bed nonprofit in rural Kansas, the care hours are there; the consistency and safety record are what a family should ask about directly.

Good Samaritan Society - Syracuse runs on thinner nurse coverage than most homes, at 3.34 hours per resident day against a national average near 3.86. Weekends dip further, roughly 17% below what the building staffs Monday through Friday, so a Saturday shift here looks noticeably different from a Tuesday. The tradeoff shows up in retention: turnover sits at 35.6%, well under the 45.8% national figure, which suggests people stay. Nine deficiencies are on the record with none at the harm level and none tied to abuse, and the last inspection came in January 2025. This is a nonprofit home with a solid inspection history and steadier-than-average staff, working with fewer hands per resident than the typical facility.

Good Samaritan Society Howard is a 45-bed nonprofit, and its inspection record is genuinely strong, a recent survey, only four deficiencies, none causing harm. Quality measures score well too. Where it slips is staffing: 3.39 nurse hours per resident day sits about 12% under the national average, and weekend coverage drops roughly 17% below its own weekday levels. Annual turnover of 53.7% is also higher than the 45.8% national figure, meaning caregivers cycle through faster than average. One abuse-related deficiency appears on the record. So the care itself looks careful, but the people delivering it have less time and less continuity than residents at better-staffed homes. Ask how weekends and evenings are covered.

Good Samaritan Society - Valley Vista runs a lean ship on staffing hours, with 3.72 nurse hours per resident day against a national average of 3.86, and weekends drop about 13% below its own weekday coverage. The trade-off shows up in turnover: 20.9% annually is less than half the national rate, so the people who are there tend to stay, which matters more than raw hours in a 45-bed home. Health inspections sit at 3 stars with 27 deficiencies on record, two serious enough to involve harm or jeopardy, and $26,525 in fines across two penalties. The last inspection was February 2024. Quality measures lag at 2 stars.

Good Samaritan Society - Millard runs a nonprofit home with 106 certified beds in Omaha, and its nurse staffing sits at 4.10 hours per resident day, roughly 6% above the national average of 3.86. That edge matters, though weekends run about 15% thinner than weekdays, so care can feel different depending on when you visit. The inspection record shows 12 deficiencies, none at the harm or jeopardy level and none abuse-related, with the most recent survey from November 2024. Staff turnover lands at 52.2%, higher than the 45.8% national figure, which is worth asking about directly. The health inspection and staffing ratings both came in at 4 out of 5, with quality measures at 3.

Good Samaritan Society Inver Grove Heights runs 46 certified beds as a nonprofit, and its nurse staffing sits at 3.95 hours per resident day, slightly above the national average. That edge narrows on weekends, when coverage drops about 13% below the home's own weekday level, and annual turnover of 52.6% runs well past the national 45.8%, so residents see a lot of new faces. The inspection record is the harder part: 40 deficiencies, including one at the harm or jeopardy level and three tied to abuse. The last inspection was February 2026, so that record is current. Above-average staffing is real, but it's carrying a facility with a thin quality measure rating and a serious citation history.

Good Samaritan Society Sioux Falls Village runs 177 certified beds as a nonprofit, and its staffing sits slightly below the national average, 3.75 nurse hours per resident day against 3.86. Weekends drop about 7% below its own weekday level, so coverage thins out exactly when families tend to visit. Turnover at 40.8% is better than the 45.8% national figure, which matters for continuity. The trouble is the inspection record: 43 deficiencies, five at harm or jeopardy level, five abuse-related, and five fines totaling $72,812, with the last inspection in April 2025. A 4/5 staffing star and 3/5 quality measure score don't offset a 1/5 inspection rating when the harm-level findings stack up like that.

Good Samaritan Society - Colonial Villa runs on thinner nurse coverage than most homes, 3.15 hours per resident day, roughly 18 percent under the national average, and weekends dip about 16 percent below what the building staffs on weekdays. Turnover sits at 41.9 percent, a bit better than the 45.8 percent national figure, so the team is comparatively stable even if it's small. The inspection record is clean where it counts: nine deficiencies, none at harm or jeopardy level and none abuse-related, with the most recent survey done in September 2025. A 53-bed nonprofit in rural Harlan County, this is a home whose care record looks solid; the question families should ask is whether the daily staffing floor holds up on Saturdays and Sundays.

Litzenberg Memorial is county-owned, which tends to mean stability and a local board that answers to voters rather than shareholders. The inspection record backs that up: seven deficiencies on file, none of them causing harm or involving abuse, and a survey completed just this September. Staffing is where it gets uneven. At 3.49 nurse hours per resident day, it runs about ten percent under the national average, and weekends dip another ten percent below the home's own weekday levels, so a Saturday shift is the thinnest coverage you'll find here. The saving grace is retention: 30 percent turnover against a 45.8 percent national average means the aides and nurses who are there tend to stay, which matters more than raw hours when your parent needs someone who knows their routine.

Annual turnover is 49.1%, a few points above the national mark. The current record carries 26 deficiencies, none at harm or jeopardy level, though two are abuse-related. Inspections were last done in January 2026, and both the health inspection and quality measure ratings come in at 2 out of 5, while staffing earns 4.

Staffing sits at 3.52 nurse hours per resident day, roughly 9% under the national average of 3.86, and weekends drop about 15% below the home's own weekday coverage. Turnover of 45.1% tracks just under the national 45.8%, so retention isn't the outlier here, the thin weekend coverage and that harm-level deficiency are what a family should ask about directly.

Good Samaritan Society's Waconia home runs on a paradox: nurses give more hours per resident than the national average, 4.02 versus 3.86, yet the same staff is spread thinner on weekends, dipping 11% below weekday coverage. The bigger worry is who's giving the care. Annual turnover hits 51.9%, well past the 45.8% norm, meaning most of the faces in this building change within a year. On paper, the health inspection and quality ratings both sit at 2 out of 5, with 46 deficiencies on record, including 3 at harm or jeopardy level and 7 tied to abuse. The last inspection was March 26, 2026, so the picture is current, not stale. Nonprofit ownership doesn't offset any of that.

Inspections in August 2025 turned up 22 deficiencies, including one tied to abuse, though none reached actual harm or jeopardy.
