LAURELS OF ATHENS, THE

CMS snapshots put overall quality at 4 of 5 stars, with staffing at 4 and quality measures at 5; health inspections sit at 3. Total nurse hours run about 3.59 per resident day (RN near 0.95, CNA near 2.12), and the place is often described as having a nurse-led care feel. If you work here, expect long-term care and rehab rhythms rather than acute hospital pace. Staff turnover in the cited data is roughly 43 percent, with RN turnover near 43 percent and no administrator departures listed. The building belongs to an 83-facility chain whose average CMS rating is lower than this campus. Pay figures for nurses are not in the open record we have, so you would need to ask directly when you apply. Inspection history is the clear rough edge: sixteen citations in the last twelve months, above the Ohio average, including one immediate-jeopardy finding after a resident on oxygen smoked unsupervised and was burned. Survey notes also flag missed hygiene for dependent residents and a fall-prevention care-plan gap. That record sits beside solid staffing and quality-measure scores—you should weigh both before you decide.
