St. Josephs Place runs 46 beds in Port Jervis, and its staffing numbers are the story here. Total nurse coverage sits at 3.86 hours per resident day, almost exactly at the national average, though weekends dip about 13% below what the home staffs during the week. Turnover is where it separates itself: 25.8% against a national average of 45.8%, which suggests people stay. The inspection record shows 7 deficiencies with none at the harm level and none abuse-related, and the last survey was in February 2024. As a nonprofit with 46 beds, it's small enough that consistency matters more than scale.

St. Ann's Community runs a tight ship on staffing. At 4.18 nurse hours per resident day, it sits about 8% above the national average, and weekend coverage dips only modestly below weekdays. Turnover lands at 37.5%, well under the 45.8% national figure, which matters because stable staff tend to know residents' routines. The home's 11 deficiencies include two abuse-related citations, though none rose to harm or jeopardy level, and its last inspection was recent. As a nonprofit, it isn't answering to shareholders. The numbers point to steady care rather than crisis management, worth weighing against those two abuse citations when you visit.

Eddy Memorial runs 80 certified beds as a nonprofit, and the staffing numbers are close to typical without being generous: 3.75 nurse hours per resident day sits about 3% under the national average, and weekends dip roughly 9% below the home's own weekday coverage. Turnover runs at 44.7%, essentially matching the national rate, so this isn't a stable long-tenured crew. The inspection record shows 17 deficiencies with none at harm or jeopardy level, though two are abuse-related, and the last full inspection came in August 2024. What stands out is the split between that middling inspection history and the quality measures, which score at the top of CMS's scale, worth asking staff how that gap plays out day to day.

Nottingham R H C F runs a tight ship on the clinical side. The forty-bed nonprofit in Jamesville has a clean inspection record, eight deficiencies on the books, none of them causing harm or involving abuse, and its most recent state visit was just this past September. Nurse staffing sits at 3.85 hours per resident day, essentially level with the national average, though weekends run about 11 percent thinner than weekdays, so ask how that gap gets covered. Staff turnover of 34.2 percent is meaningfully better than the 45.8 percent national figure, which matters for whether your parent sees the same faces. Small homes live or die on consistency, and the numbers here suggest this one mostly has it.
