Edgewater runs on a nonprofit model with 40 certified beds in West Des Moines, and the staffing numbers are the story here: 4.70 nurse hours per resident day, roughly 22% above the national average. Weekend coverage dips about 15% below its own weekday level, so care thins out on Saturdays and Sundays even though the overall floor is high. Annual turnover sits at 44%, essentially matching the national rate. The current record shows 10 deficiencies, none at the harm or jeopardy level and none abuse-related, with the most recent inspection completed June 19, 2025. Quality measures score strongly; health inspections are the softer spot.

Halcyon House sits in Washington, Iowa, with 54 certified beds and a nonprofit owner. The staffing numbers are strong, 4.25 nurse hours per resident day, roughly 10% above the national average, with weekend coverage dipping about 11% below weekdays. Turnover runs 40%, better than the 45.8% national figure, and CMS gives top marks for staffing and quality measures. The tension is in inspections: a 2/5 health inspection rating, five deficiencies on record, one serious enough to reach harm or jeopardy level. No abuse citations. The most recent inspection was March 2026. Good hands on deck, but the survey history is where the concern lives.

Heritage House runs a nonprofit operation with 61 beds in Atlantic, and the staffing numbers are the first thing worth noticing. At 3.96 nurse hours per resident day, it sits just above the national average, and weekend coverage dips about 11% below its own weekday level, a gap families should ask about directly. Staff turnover is 33.3%, well under the 45.8% national figure, which matters for whether your parent sees the same faces week to week. The inspection record shows 11 deficiencies, none involving harm or abuse, with the most recent state visit in September 2025. Ownership is nonprofit, which often means steadier budgets and less pressure to trim direct care hours.

The Village in Indianola runs on a nonprofit model and staffs above the national average, 4.10 nurse hours per resident day against 3.86, though weekends dip about 10% below its own weekday coverage, so ask how that gap gets filled. Turnover sits at 45.9%, essentially the national average, which means retention here isn't a crisis but isn't a strength either. Seven deficiencies appear on the current record, one serious enough to involve harm or jeopardy, with nothing abuse-related. The last inspection was January 15, 2026, recent enough to trust. Four stars on health inspections and quality measures, five on staffing, with 54 beds, small enough that you can reasonably expect staff to know residents by name.

Fieldstone Of Dewitt runs on 4.06 nurse hours per resident day, a bit above the national average of 3.86, and weekend coverage dips roughly 7% below its own weekday levels, worth asking about if your family visits mainly on Saturdays and Sundays. Annual turnover sits at 34.9%, well below the 45.8% national figure, so the people caring for residents tend to stick around, which matters more than any single inspection score. The home carries four deficiencies on its current record, none at the harm level and none abuse-related, with a health inspection from July 2025. Quality measures land mid-range while staffing and inspections score higher.

Wesley Park Centre in Newton runs a nonprofit operation with 66 certified beds, and the staffing numbers are the strongest part of the picture: 4.19 nurse hours per resident day, roughly 8% above the national average, with a five-star CMS staffing rating to match. Weekend coverage dips about 11% below weekday levels, though, and turnover sits at 35.2%, better than the 45.8% national figure, but still a third of the staff leaving annually. The inspection record is where it gets cloudier: 10 deficiencies on file, two of them serious enough to involve harm or jeopardy, plus one fine of $17,345, with the most recent inspection in January 2026. Solid staffing, moderate inspection history.

Brio Of Johnston runs a for-profit limited liability operation with 36 certified beds in Polk County, and its nurse staffing sits at 4.57 hours per resident day, roughly 18% above the national average. That margin narrows on weekends, when coverage drops about 10% below the home's own weekday pace. Staff turnover lands at 55.1%, nearly ten points above the national figure, which means the people delivering that care are cycling through faster than average. Twelve deficiencies sit on the current record, one serious enough to involve harm or jeopardy, with a single fine of $6,923 and an inspection dated April 2026. The staffing and quality measure ratings hold at 4 stars each; inspection results sit lower at 3.

Wesley On Grand runs on a solid staffing base: 3.94 nurse hours per resident day, a bit above the national average of 3.86. Weekend coverage dips about 5% from weekday levels, and turnover sits at 44.7%, marginally better than the 45.8% national figure. The inspection record is clean where it matters, four deficiencies total, none causing harm or jeopardy, none abuse-related, with the most recent survey in June 2025. Quality measures land mid-range. It's a nonprofit home with 80 beds whose strongest asset is a spotless harm-level record and dependable weekday staffing; the trade-offs are thinner weekend coverage and a quality-measure score that won't impress anyone.

The Cottages in Pella runs a nonprofit shop with 100 certified beds, and its nurse staffing sits at 4.18 hours per resident day, roughly 8% above the national average, though weekend coverage dips about 7% below its own weekday levels, and half the staff turns over each year against a 45.8% national figure. That mix helps explain a staffing rating of 4 out of 5 and quality measures at 4 out of 5, but the health inspection side tells a harder story: 21 deficiencies on record, including 2 at the harm or jeopardy level and 3 tied to abuse, with $40,054 in fines across two penalties. The most recent inspection was August 25, 2025, so the record is current rather than stale. Good day-to-day care numbers, serious inspection findings.

The Summit of Bettendorf runs a 39-bed for-profit home where nurses give about 4.58 hours of care per resident per day, roughly 18 percent more than the national average, a real strength. Two things temper that. Weekend staffing drops about 8 percent below the home's own weekday level, so families visiting Saturday or Sunday may see fewer hands. And turnover sits at 56.9 percent against a national 45.8 percent, meaning the people providing that extra care keep changing. The current inspection record carries nine deficiencies, one at the harm or jeopardy level and one abuse-related, along with a single $26,358 fine. The last inspection was in December 2025, so the record is recent rather than stale.
