Facility status or candidacy, or a citation scored at actual harm or immediate jeopardy. Ordered with
Special Focus homes first.

Haven Of Sedona runs on 2.91 nurse hours per resident day, roughly a quarter below the national average of 3.86, and weekends drop about 17% below its own weekday staffing. Annual turnover sits at 50.7% against a national 45.8%, so even the hours that exist are often delivered by people still learning the building. Inspectors have cited 50 deficiencies, nine tied to abuse, and CMS keeps the home in its Special Focus Facility program, a designation reserved for the small share of homes with a pattern of serious problems, though none of the current citations reached harm or jeopardy. The 5/5 quality measure score and April 2026 inspection are the strong points; staffing and enforcement history are not.
Sandstone of Tucson Rehab Centre runs 240 certified beds under for-profit LLC ownership, and its staffing sits at 3.76 nurse hours per resident day, about 3% under the national average of 3.86. Weekends dip roughly 7% below its own weekday levels, and turnover runs 46.4%, slightly above the national 45.8%. What stands out most is the inspection record: 63 deficiencies, including 2 at harm or jeopardy level and 27 tied to abuse, with $55,090 in fines across two penalties. That history is what drives the one-star health inspection rating, even though the quality measure score sits at the top and staffing rates well. The last inspection was April 2026. Ask about the abuse-related citations directly before deciding.
Rehab At Scottsdale Village Square has real staffing depth, 5.02 nurse hours per resident day, roughly 30% above the national average, and turnover at 38.4% is better than the 45.8% norm. Weekend coverage dips only slightly, about 6% under weekdays. But the compliance record is where this home separates from the pack: 68 deficiencies, including four at the harm or jeopardy level and 35 tied to abuse. Eleven fines add up to $199,344, and CMS has placed it in the Special Focus Facility program, a designation reserved for homes with a pattern of serious, repeated problems. The most recent inspection was August 2025. Good staffing numbers can coexist with a troubled record; here, they do.
Sunview runs a split record. Nurse staffing sits at 4.47 hours per resident day, about 16% above the national average, and turnover of 41.2% is slightly better than the typical home. Those are real strengths, and the 5/5 quality measure rating reflects them. But the inspection side tells a different story: 19 deficiencies on record, 2 at harm or jeopardy level, 5 abuse-related, and CMS has placed the home in its Special Focus Facility program, a designation reserved for the most persistently troubled homes. Weekend staffing drops roughly 15% below weekday levels, which matters when falls and emergencies don't wait for Monday. The last inspection was September 2024.
Dr Guy Gorman Sr Care Home has enough nurses on paper, 4.09 hours per resident day, a bit more than the national average, but the weekend dip of about 17% means the coverage isn't steady across the week. The inspection record is the real problem: 64 deficiencies, three of them serious enough to put residents in harm's way, eight tied to abuse, and $127,634 in fines. Being placed in the Special Focus Facility program means CMS has flagged this home for closer monitoring than most. That combination of thin weekend staffing and a long, serious deficiency history is what's driving the low grade, not the raw staffing number.
Palm Valley Post Acute runs 180 certified beds in Goodyear under corporate ownership, and the staffing numbers are more mixed than they first look. Total nurse hours sit slightly above the national average, and turnover at 41.1% is actually below the norm, but weekend coverage drops about 6% from weekday levels.
The inspection record is where the picture darkens. Forty-eight deficiencies are on file, including 19 tied to abuse and six serious enough to put residents in harm or jeopardy, which is why CMS has placed this home in its Special Focus Facility program. That designation isn't routine, it flags homes with a persistent pattern of poor care. One fine totaling $82,607 is also on record.
Nurse staffing at Winslow Campus of Care runs 0.45 hours per resident day, roughly a tenth of the national average, an extraordinary gap. That's not a rounding quirk; it's the kind of number that shapes every shift. Annual turnover sits at 72.5%, well above the 45.8% national figure, so the aides and nurses who do show up are often new. Behind that: 46 deficiencies on the current record, 22 of them abuse-related and 3 serious enough to put residents in harm's way, plus five fines totaling $117,139. The quality star rating is 4 out of 5, which may reflect care processes on paper, but inspectors last visited in January 2025 and rated health inspections 1 out of 5.
Santa Rosa Care Center runs about 3.35 nurse hours per resident day, roughly 13% under the national average, and weekends dip another 13% below its own weekday levels. Annual turnover sits at 58.2% against a 45.8% national figure, so the staff cycling through the building is changing faster than at the typical home. Its inspection record shows 28 deficiencies, including one at the harm level and 12 tied to abuse, with the most recent inspection in August 2025. The quality measure score comes in strong, but that reflects charted clinical outcomes rather than day-to-day staffing or the survey history behind it.
Desert Terrace runs on leaner nursing hours than most homes, 3.35 per resident day against a national average of 3.86, and weekends drop about 11% below what the building staffs during the week. That matters because turnover sits at 55.4%, well above the 45.8% national figure, so the people covering those thinner weekend shifts are often new. The five-star quality measure rating looks strong on paper, but the inspection record tells a different story: 23 deficiencies, five tied to abuse, and a two-star health inspection score from a visit in late September 2025. None of those deficiencies rose to the level of actual harm, which is worth knowing. Corporate-owned, 108 beds, and a staffing picture that runs below average across the board.
Handmaker Home for the Aging carries a one-star health inspection rating and 51 deficiencies on its current record, including 16 tied to abuse and one at the harm or jeopardy level. CMS has placed it in the Special Focus Facility program, which is reserved for homes with a persistent record of serious problems. Staffing sits at 3.90 nurse hours per resident day, barely above the national average, but turnover runs 68% against a national 45.8%, and weekend coverage drops about 9% below weekday levels. The five-star quality measure score doesn't offset a record this heavy. If you're considering this Tucson home, ask directly what's changed since the October 2024 inspection.
Desert Haven Care Center is a for-profit LLC home in Phoenix with 115 certified beds, and its federal record is rough. The staffing rating sits at 1 out of 5, well below what CMS expects for this resident census, and the health inspection rating matches it at 1. Twenty-six deficiencies show up on the current record, three of them serious enough to reach harm or jeopardy, and six tied to abuse. Three fines total $100,018. The quality measure score of 3 is the one bright spot, but good clinical numbers don't offset thin staffing and repeat survey problems. The most recent inspection was September 5, 2025, so the record is fresh, what you see is current, not old history.
Casas Adobes runs about 3.97 nurse hours per resident day, a bit above the national average, but weekends drop roughly 13% below its own weekday coverage, worth asking about if your family visits on Saturdays or Sundays. Staff turnover sits at 50.5%, higher than the 45.8% national figure, which matters for whether your parent sees the same aides from month to month. The health inspection record is the real concern: 19 deficiencies, seven of them abuse-related, even though none rose to harm or jeopardy level, and the last inspection was in May 2026. The quality measure stars look strong, but the inspection side is where you'd want to ask hard questions before choosing this 230-bed for-profit home.
Heritage Court Post Acute runs 108 beds in Scottsdale under corporate ownership, and the numbers pull in two directions. Clinical quality measures score near the top, and the April 2025 inspection found no deficiencies at the harm level, but there are 18 deficiencies on record, three tied to abuse, and nurse staffing sits about 14% under the national average at 3.31 hours per resident day. Weekend coverage drops roughly 12% below the home's own weekday level, which matters when families visit and needs don't pause. Annual turnover is 50.7%, above the 45.8% national figure, so the people caring for your relative change often. Ask how they staff weekends and what those abuse deficiencies involved before deciding.
Haven Of Sierra Vista runs 100 certified beds under for-profit LLC ownership, and its nurse staffing sits at 3.09 hours per resident day, roughly 20% under the national average of 3.86. Weekend coverage dips about 8% below its own weekday level, and turnover is 46.6%, slightly above the national figure of 45.8%.
The current record shows 17 deficiencies, none at harm or jeopardy level, though three are abuse-related. Health inspection rating is 2 out of 5; staffing is 1 out of 5. Quality measures score 5 out of 5, and the most recent inspection was December 10, 2025. The staffing shortfall is the number worth weighing hardest if you're comparing this home to others nearby.
Haven Of Flagstaff runs 3.35 nursing hours per resident day, roughly 13% under the national average, and weekends dip about 8% below its own weekday coverage. Turnover sits at 43.8%, a touch better than the 45.8% national figure, but the inspection record is the harder read: 24 deficiencies on file, including one at the harm level and nine tied to abuse, with a $13,098 fine and a 2-out-of-5 health inspection rating. The 5/5 quality measure score reflects resident care metrics, not the survey history. Last inspection was March 14, 2025, so the record is current. For-profit corporate ownership. If you're weighing this one, ask specifically about the abuse-related findings and how weekend staffing gets covered.
Bella Vita runs 176 certified beds under corporate for-profit ownership in Glendale, and its staffing sits almost exactly at the national average, 3.88 nurse hours per resident day against 3.86 nationwide. That average hides a gap, though: weekends run about 11% leaner than weekdays, so coverage depends on when you visit. Turnover at 44.5% is slightly better than the national 45.8%, which is a small point in its favor. The bigger concern is the inspection record: 21 deficiencies, including one at the harm or jeopardy level and four tied to abuse, with a $8,278 fine. The last inspection was October 31, 2024, so that record is recent.
Desert Cove runs 120 beds in Chandler under for-profit partnership ownership, and the staffing numbers are the first thing to notice. At 3.81 nurse hours per resident day, it sits just under the national average of 3.86, close, but the weekend picture is worse. Weekend staffing drops about 17% below its own weekday level, so care thins out exactly when families tend to visit.
Turnover runs 50%, above the 45.8% national figure, meaning nearly half the nursing staff leaves each year. The inspection record is the harder read: 37 deficiencies on file, including four tied to abuse, though none rose to harm or jeopardy level. The most recent inspection was November 19, 2025. Quality measures score well; the inspection side doesn't. Worth asking about weekend coverage and turnover directly.
Haven of Sandpointe runs 143 certified beds in Yuma under for-profit LLC ownership, and its staffing sits at 3.72 nurse hours per resident day, about 4% under the national figure of 3.86. Weekends dip roughly 12% below the home's own weekday coverage, so the thinnest shifts land when families tend to visit. Turnover is the bright spot: 20.7% against a national 45.8%, meaning the caregivers you meet are more likely to still be there next year. What pulls the record down is the inspection side, 21 deficiencies on file, 7 tied to abuse, with the most recent visit in August 2025. None reached harm or jeopardy level, but that volume of findings, on a two-star health inspection, is the part worth asking about directly.
Haven Of Phoenix runs 114 certified beds under corporate for-profit ownership, and its staffing sits at 3.23 nurse hours per resident day, roughly 16% under the national average of 3.86. Weekends dip about 12% below the home's own weekday coverage, so the thinnest shifts land when families tend to visit. Turnover is 37.4%, better than the 45.8% national figure, which suggests some stability in who's actually on the floor. The inspection record is the harder read: 20 deficiencies, including one at harm or jeopardy level and three tied to abuse, with a $8,278 fine. The last inspection was May 2026, so that record is recent. Quality measures score well, but the survey history is what pulls the overall picture down.
Mountain View Manor runs 116 certified beds in Prescott and is owned by an individual for profit. Its nurse staffing sits at 4.29 hours per resident day, about 11% above the national average, but weekend coverage drops roughly 9% below its own weekday level, and annual turnover is 51.4% against a national 45.8%. The current record carries 45 deficiencies, 10 of them abuse-related, with none flagged at harm or jeopardy level. The most recent inspection was February 28, 2025. What stands out is the gap between how the place is staffed on paper and how it performed on its last health inspection, which CMS rated 1 out of 5.
Haven Of Camp Verde runs 58 beds under for-profit LLC ownership, and its staffing sits at 3.13 nurse hours per resident day, roughly 19% under the national average of 3.86. Weekends dip about 11% below its own weekday coverage, and annual turnover is 51.1%, against a 45.8% national figure. The inspection record shows 20 deficiencies, including one at the harm or jeopardy level and three tied to abuse, plus a single fine of $18,252. Its last inspection was May 28, 2026. Quality measures score well, but the staffing and inspection numbers are where the real story sits. Ask about weekend coverage and turnover before you decide.
Mi Casa runs 180 beds in Mesa under corporate ownership, and its staffing sits almost exactly at the national average, 3.84 nurse hours per resident day against 3.86. Weekends dip about 10% below its own weekday coverage, so the hours aren't evenly spread, and 51.3% of staff turned over in a year compared with 45.8% nationally.
The inspection record is where the concern shows: 25 deficiencies, none flagged as actual harm or jeopardy, but five tied to abuse. A 2-out-of-5 health inspection rating against a 5-out-of-5 quality measure rating usually means the care processes look fine on paper while the survey history tells a rougher story. The most recent inspection was April 2025, so the picture is current.
Life Care Center Of Yuma runs 128 certified beds under corporate for-profit ownership, and its nurse staffing sits at 3.76 hours per resident day, about 3% under the national average of 3.86. Weekends dip roughly 9% below its own weekday coverage, which matters if your family visits or calls on Saturdays and Sundays. The current inspection record shows 32 deficiencies, none at the harm or jeopardy level, but six tied to abuse. Staff turnover is 42.5%, a bit better than the 45.8% national figure. CMS gave it two stars each for health inspections and staffing, four for quality measures, with the last inspection in June 2024.
Rim Country Health & Retirement Community runs 109 certified beds in Payson under corporate for-profit ownership, and its staffing sits just under the national mark at 3.80 nurse hours per resident day. That small gap matters less than the weekend pattern, where coverage drops roughly 8% below the home's own weekday level. The inspection record is the harder read: 58 deficiencies on file, including one at the harm level and 21 tied to abuse, with a single fine of $10,358. State surveyors last visited in February 2025. Staffing and quality measures both land at two stars, so the numbers point to a home where consistent daily care and a clean compliance history aren't yet in place.
Life Care Center of Sierra Vista runs 152 certified beds under corporate ownership, and its inspection record is the part that stands out: 28 deficiencies, including two at the harm or jeopardy level and eight tied to abuse. The most recent inspection was September 2025, so that record is current, and fines total $55,881 across two penalties. Nurse staffing sits at 3.65 hours per resident day, about 6% under the national average, and weekends run roughly 16% thinner than weekdays. Staff turnover is 34.8%, which is actually better than the 45.8% national figure, a real strength here. Quality measures score well, but the inspection history is what a family should weigh hardest.
Life Care Center of Tucson runs about average on nurse hours per resident day, essentially even with the national figure, though weekends dip roughly 16% below what the home staffs during the week, so coverage thin out when families tend to visit. Turnover sits slightly better than the national rate, which matters for consistency of care. What stands out is the inspection record: 50 deficiencies, seven tied to abuse, and a one-star health inspection rating, against much stronger marks on quality measures and staffing. The last full inspection was in July 2024. Corporate-owned, 162 beds. The staffing and quality numbers look solid; the survey history is where the concern lives.
Devon Gables runs 312 beds in Tucson under for-profit LLC ownership, and its staffing picture is mixed. At 3.64 nurse hours per resident day, it sits about 6% under the national average of 3.86, with weekends roughly 8% thinner than its own weekdays, but annual turnover of 28.2% is well below the 45.8% national figure, meaning the aides and nurses who are there tend to stay. The trouble is the inspection record: 21 deficiencies, including one at harm or jeopardy level and four tied to abuse, with the last inspection in July 2023. A 2-out-of-5 inspection rating against a 4-out-of-5 staffing rating tells you the care hours are decent, but the survey history is where the risk lives.
Prescott Village runs 3.27 nurse hours per resident per day, about 15% under the national average, and weekend staffing drops roughly 12% below its own weekday levels. That thinner weekend coverage matters because this for-profit LLC carries 33 deficiencies on its current record, including one at the harm level and one tied to abuse, with $8,278 in fines. Staff turnover sits at 52.2% against a national 45.8%, so the people caring for residents keep changing. The 5/5 quality measure score reflects reported clinical data, but the 1/5 inspection rating and 2/5 staffing rating come from what regulators found on site. The most recent inspection was March 6, 2026, so the record is current.
Horizon Post Acute runs 196 beds in Glendale under corporate ownership, and its nurse staffing sits at 3.51 hours per resident day, roughly 9 percent under the national average, with weekends about 10 percent thinner than weekdays. Turnover is 46.3 percent, close to the national figure of 45.8 percent, so continuity isn't the standout problem here. The inspection record is: 19 deficiencies, including one at the harm or jeopardy level and six tied to abuse, with a single fine of $10,985. CMS scored staffing and health inspections 2 out of 5, while quality measures came in at 5. The most recent inspection was May 16, 2025.
Haven Of Safford runs 106 certified beds under for-profit LLC ownership, and its nurse staffing sits at 3.33 hours per resident day, roughly 14 percent under the national average of 3.86. Weekends dip another 13 percent below the home's own weekday coverage, so the thinnest shifts land when families tend to visit. Turnover is 42.5 percent, slightly better than the 45.8 percent national figure, but the inspection record is where the real story sits: 31 deficiencies on file, including one at the harm or jeopardy level and 12 tied to abuse. One fine totaling $15,210. The last inspection was November 2024. Strong self-reported quality scores don't erase that paper trail.
Desert Peak Care Center runs 194 beds in Phoenix under corporate for-profit ownership, and the staffing numbers are genuinely better than most: 4.68 nurse hours per resident day against a national average of 3.86. That's real coverage, though weekends drop about 13% below the home's own weekday level, and turnover sits at 45.6%, essentially matching the national rate.
The problem isn't hands on deck, it's what inspectors found. Forty deficiencies on the current record, three at harm or jeopardy level, and eleven tied to abuse. Two fines totaling $64,873. The most recent inspection was January 2025, so the record is fresh, not stale. Strong daily staffing and a clean quality measure score don't cancel out that inspection history.
Resolve Harmony Center is a for-profit LLC home in Phoenix with 115 certified beds, and its nurse staffing sits at 3.42 hours per resident day, about 11 percent under the national average. Weekend coverage runs roughly 7 percent thinner than weekdays, so the hours a resident gets on a Saturday aren't the hours they get on a Tuesday. The inspection history is where the real weight sits: 43 deficiencies on the current record, 13 of them abuse-related, though none reached the harm or jeopardy level. The last inspection was in March 2026. Quality measures score well, but that reflects clinical outcomes on paper, not the day-to-day floor. The staffing and inspection picture is what a family should actually weigh here.
Quiburi Mission runs 60 beds in Benson under for-profit LLC ownership, and its staffing sits at 3.63 hours per resident day, roughly 6% under the national average of 3.86, with weekends about 11% thinner than its own weekdays. That said, turnover is 29.8% against a national 45.8%, so the people who are there tend to stay. The current record shows 13 deficiencies, two tied to abuse, though none rose to harm or jeopardy level. Inspectors were last on site May 1, 2026. CMS gives it 2 of 5 stars on health inspections, 4 on staffing, and 5 on quality measures, a home whose day-to-day care metrics look better than its inspection history.
Haven Of Globe runs 104 certified beds under for-profit LLC ownership, and its nurse staffing sits at 2.83 hours per resident day, roughly 27% under the national average of 3.86. Weekends drop about 15% below the home's own weekday coverage, which matters when that's already a thin baseline. Staff turnover is 51.7%, higher than the 45.8% national figure, and CMS rates staffing 1 out of 5 stars. The inspection record shows 24 deficiencies, including 2 at harm or jeopardy level and 3 tied to abuse; the most recent inspection was February 2025. Quality measures score 4 out of 5, but that's the piece that depends most on consistent hands being present.
The staffing numbers here are genuinely strong, 5.32 nurse hours per resident day, well above the national average, with turnover at 29.2% versus 45.8% nationally. That kind of consistency matters for daily care. But the inspection record tells a different story: 40 deficiencies, including three at the harm level and seven tied to abuse. That combination, good staffing, troubling oversight findings, is what pulls the overall picture down.
Haven Of Lake Havasu runs 104 certified beds under corporate for-profit ownership, and its nursing hours come in at 3.37 per resident day, roughly 13% under the national average, with weekends about 9% lighter than weekdays, so coverage thins out right when families tend to visit. Staff turnover sits at 52.5% against a national 45.8%, and the current record carries 27 deficiencies, including 2 at harm or jeopardy level and 5 tied to abuse. The health inspection rating is 1 out of 5, though the quality measure rating is 5 and staffing 2, which tells you the clinical numbers look better than the oversight history. Inspectors were last on site February 2025, and fines total $8,018.
Maryland Gardens runs on thinner nurse coverage than most homes, 3.58 hours per resident day against a national average of 3.86, with weekends dropping roughly 9% below its own weekday levels, so the shifts when families visit most are the ones stretched thinnest. Turnover tells a bigger story: 70.2% of staff leave annually, compared with 45.8% nationally, which for a 58-bed building means a lot of unfamiliar faces. The 25 deficiencies on record include 9 tied to abuse, though none reached harm or jeopardy level, and the last inspection was July 2024. Its quality measures look strong; the inspection and staffing picture is where the caution sits.
Immanuel Campus Of Care runs 228 certified beds in Peoria under corporate for-profit ownership, and the numbers pull in two directions. Nurse staffing sits at 4.75 hours per resident day, roughly 23% above the national average, and turnover is 23.1% against a national 45.8%, so the people providing care are largely staying put, and weekend coverage drops only about 9% from weekday levels. What undercuts that is the inspection record: 36 deficiencies, including 2 at harm or jeopardy level and 16 tied to abuse, with a January 2025 inspection date and $18,529 in fines. Strong staffing and a troubled compliance history can coexist, and here they do.
The Lingenfelter Center runs 88 certified beds in Kingman under corporate for-profit ownership, and its staffing sits at 3.72 nurse hours per resident day, roughly 4% under the national average of 3.86. Weekends drop about 8% below its own weekday coverage, so the thinnest shifts land when families tend to visit. Turnover is 46.4%, close to the national 45.8%, meaning nearly half the nursing staff turns over in a year. The current record holds 20 deficiencies, none at harm or jeopardy level, but six are abuse-related, which is worth asking about directly. Inspectors last visited in June 2024.
Advanced Health Care of Glendale runs a 54-bed for-profit operation in Maricopa County, and the nurse staffing here is genuinely above average, 5.18 hours per resident day against a national figure of 3.86. Weekends thin out by roughly 13% compared to weekdays, which is worth knowing if most of your visits fall on a Saturday or Sunday. Staff turnover sits at 59.8%, well above the 45.8% national rate, so expect some churn among the people providing care. The inspection record is clean where it counts: eight deficiencies total, none involving harm or abuse, and the most recent survey was in February 2026.
Oasis Pavilion runs leaner on nursing hours than most homes, 3.30 per resident day against a national average of 3.86, and weekends dip about 10% below its own weekday coverage, so a Saturday problem may take longer to catch. Turnover sits at 41.6%, a bit better than the 45.8% national figure, which matters because familiar aides notice changes sooner. The inspection record shows 34 deficiencies, including 8 tied to abuse, though none rose to harm or jeopardy, and three fines total $13,761. Ownership is a for-profit limited liability company. A recent inspection closed in December 2025, so the picture is current. Ask about weekend coverage and how abuse allegations get investigated.
The Arizona State Veteran Home in Yuma runs 80 certified beds and puts 5.58 nursing hours behind each resident every day, roughly 44 percent above the national average of 3.86. That staffing shows up in its four-star rating, though weekends dip about 11 percent below its own weekday coverage.
The inspection side is where it gets less comfortable. Eight deficiencies sit on the current record, none at harm or jeopardy level, but three tied to abuse. Its health inspection rating is 2 out of 5, and the most recent survey was September 20, 2024.
State-run ownership with that much daily nursing time is a genuine strength. The abuse-related findings and the thin inspection score are the parts worth asking about directly.
