All 3 Medicare-certified nursing homes in Milford,
side by side on the things that separate them: how many nursing hours each resident gets, how much of the
staff leaves each year, and what inspectors found on their last visit.
Civita Care Center At West River runs 120 certified beds under for-profit LLC ownership, and its nurse staffing sits at 3.61 hours per resident day, about 6% under the national average of 3.86. Weekend coverage drops roughly 13% below its own weekday level, so families should ask how that gap gets managed. Turnover is the bright spot: 30.6% against a national 45.8%, which suggests a steadier workforce than most. The inspection record shows 26 deficiencies, none at harm or jeopardy level and none abuse-related, with the most recent visit in January 2025. Quality measures score well; staffing and health inspections land mid-range.
Milford Health and Rehabilitation Center runs 120 certified beds under corporate, for-profit ownership, and its nurse staffing sits at 3.98 hours per resident day, about 3% above the national average of 3.86. Weekend coverage dips roughly 8% below weekday levels, so ask how that plays out on a Saturday. Staff turnover of 21.4% is worth noting against the national average of 45.8%; that kind of retention is uncommon. The tradeoff shows up in the inspection record: 19 deficiencies, including one at the harm or jeopardy level and one abuse-related, plus a single fine of $19,122. Its last inspection was February 19, 2026.
Civita Care Center At Milford runs 120 beds under for-profit LLC ownership, and its staffing sits at 3.60 nurse hours per resident day, roughly 7% under the national average of 3.86, with weekends dropping about 15% below its own weekday levels. That gap matters most on Saturdays and Sundays, when families often visit and needs don't pause.
Turnover runs 40.9%, slightly better than the 45.8% national figure, so there's some continuity in the workforce. But the inspection record is the harder read: 59 deficiencies on file, including 8 tied to abuse and 2 at harm or jeopardy level, with one fine of $14,433. The most recent inspection was December 2024.
