Transylvania Regional Hospital runs a small ten-bed nursing unit inside a hospital in Brevard, and it's owned by a for-profit corporation. The inspection record is genuinely strong: five deficiencies total, none causing harm or jeopardy, none tied to abuse, and the last survey came in late November 2025, so it's current. That's the profile of a place Medicare rates four stars for health inspections. Quality measures land at three, which is middle of the pack. With only ten beds, staff attention per resident tends to be easier to sustain than in a large facility, and nothing in the record suggests families should worry about safety or oversight here.

Hca Houston Healthcare Southeast runs a small 30-bed unit in Pasadena under corporate for-profit ownership, and the staffing numbers stand out: about 6.90 nurse hours per resident day, roughly 79% above the national average of 3.86. That is a lot of nursing time for a home this size. Weekend coverage drops about 18% below its own weekday level, which is worth asking about if your family visits or calls primarily on Saturdays and Sundays. The current record shows zero deficiencies, none at the harm or jeopardy level, and no abuse-related citations, with the last inspection dated April 12, 2024.

Eckerd Living Center runs 4.35 nurse hours per resident day, about 13% above the national average, and that staffing shows up in a five-star CMS staffing rating. Weekend coverage dips roughly 20% below its own weekday level, which is common but still worth knowing if you're visiting Saturdays. Staff turnover sits at 36.7%, better than the 45.8% national figure. The home has seven deficiencies on record, none at the harm level and none abuse-related, and its last inspection was April 10, 2026, so the picture is current. A for-profit partnership with 80 beds and a four-star health inspection rating, it looks steady on paper.
