The Suites At Western Home Communities runs about 4.56 nurse hours per resident day, roughly 18% above the national average, and weekend staffing only dips about 5% below weekday levels, a small gap, which matters because weekends are where a lot of homes quietly thin out. Turnover sits at 43.6%, slightly better than the 45.8% national figure but still meaning nearly half the nursing staff turning over in a year. The inspection record shows 13 deficiencies, none at the harm or jeopardy level, though two are abuse-related, worth asking about directly. With a nonprofit owner, a recent March 2026 inspection, and 4s across health inspection and quality measures alongside that 5 on staffing, the numbers point to a home that's well-staffed and currently in good standing.

Creekside runs on 4.12 nurse hours per resident day, roughly 7% above the national average, and its staff turnover of 33.3% is well below the 45.8% national figure, two signs of a stable, adequately staffed building. Weekend coverage dips about 7% from weekday levels, worth asking about if your family visits Saturdays or Sundays. The inspection record is thin: one deficiency total, none at harm level, none abuse-related, with the most recent survey in December 2025. The weaker spot is the 2/5 quality measure rating, so ask what specific clinical measures are dragging that down.

Martin Health Center runs on unusually solid staffing for a 50-bed nonprofit home in Cedar Falls, 4.21 nurse hours per resident day, roughly 9% above the national average, and enough to earn a top staffing rating from CMS. Weekend coverage dips about 8% below its own weekday level, which is worth asking about if your family visits on Saturdays or Sundays. Staff turnover sits at 39.7%, better than the 45.8% national figure, no small thing when consistent caregivers matter. The tradeoffs show up elsewhere: 11 deficiencies on record, one serious enough to involve harm or jeopardy, and a mid-range quality measure score. The last inspection was recent, in May 2025, so the picture is current.

Madrid Home for the Aged runs 64 certified beds as a nonprofit corporation, and its last inspection came in March 2026, so the record is current. Nurse staffing sits at 3.70 hours per resident day, about 4% under the national average of 3.86, and weekends drop roughly 8% below the home's own weekday level, worth asking about if your family visits or calls on Saturdays and Sundays. Annual turnover of 46.8% edges slightly past the national 45.8%. Fourteen deficiencies appear on the current record, none at the harm or jeopardy level but two tied to abuse, which is the kind of item you'd want explained directly rather than assumed.

Parkview Manor in Reinbeck runs 28 beds under corporate ownership, and the staffing numbers are genuinely better than most: 4.15 nurse hours per resident day, roughly 7% above the national average, with a four-star staffing rating to match. Weekends dip about 9% below weekday coverage, which matters in a building this small, and turnover sits at 47.1%, slightly above the national figure. The trouble is the inspection record, 31 deficiencies, four serious enough to put residents in harm's way, three tied to abuse, plus a $23,813 fine. A one-star health inspection rating against a three-star quality score tells you the day-to-day care metrics look fine while the state's own findings say otherwise. The last inspection was August 2025.

The Village of Ackley runs 3.72 nurse hours per resident day, roughly 4% under the national average of 3.86, and weekends dip about 9% below its own weekday coverage. Staff turnover is the number that stands out: 66.7% annually against a 45.8% national average, meaning most of the people caring for residents were not there a year ago. The inspection record shows 33 deficiencies, including three at the harm or jeopardy level and three tied to abuse, with two fines totaling $47,149. The last inspection was March 2026, so the picture is current. Quality and staffing star ratings both sit at 4/5, but the deficiency history and turnover tell a different story than the stars suggest.
