Highlands Health And Rehab is county-owned, which is unusual, most nursing homes in Alabama are for-profit, and the numbers here mostly back it up. Nurse staffing runs at 4.80 hours per resident day, about 24% above the national average of 3.86, and that coverage holds together on weekends, dropping roughly 20% from weekday levels rather than falling off a cliff. The current record shows six deficiencies, none at the harm or jeopardy level and none abuse-related, from an inspection last dated March 2022. With 50 certified beds, this is a small home, and one thing worth asking about directly: that inspection is now more than three years old, so the record may not reflect how things stand today.

Donalson Care Center runs 168 certified beds as a nonprofit corporation, and its nurse staffing sits just under the national average at 3.74 hours per resident day. The bigger issue is consistency: weekend coverage drops roughly 15% below what the home staffs on weekdays, so a Saturday shift looks meaningfully thinner than a Tuesday. Turnover is 39.1%, which is actually better than the 45.8% national figure, that's a real strength here. Against that, the current record carries 24 deficiencies, five of them serious enough to involve harm or jeopardy, plus one abuse-related citation. The last inspection was March 2025, so the picture is fairly current.

Abuse icon on record

Cumberland Health and Rehab is a 100-bed nonprofit home in Bridgeport, and its numbers pull in two directions. The care side looks strong on paper: a 5/5 staffing star rating, a 5/5 quality measure rating, and turnover at 35.6%, well below the national average of 45.8%. But the inspection record is where the story turns. Eighteen deficiencies, six of them serious enough to cause harm or jeopardy, one tied to abuse, plus a $238,745 fine and a spot in CMS's Special Focus Facility program. Total nurse staffing sits slightly under the national average, and weekends run about 12% thinner than weekdays. That last inspection was June 2024, so the record is current.
