Westgate Center runs on 4.17 nurse hours per resident day, roughly 8% above the national average of 3.86, and its staff turnover sits at 22.9% against a national figure near 46%. That combination matters more than any single number: enough hands on deck, and a workforce stable enough to know the residents. Weekend staffing dips about 4% below its own weekday level, a small slide rather than a cliff. The 18 deficiencies on record include none at the harm or jeopardy level and none tied to abuse, and the most recent inspection closed out in May 2026. For-profit operation under a limited liability company, 65 certified beds.

Stillwater Health Care runs on good staffing numbers for its size, 4.11 nurse hours per resident day, a bit above the national average, and its staff turnover of 31.9% is notably lower than the 45.8% typical elsewhere, which usually means steadier caregivers who know the residents. Weekends dip about 12% below weekday coverage, worth asking about if your family visits then. The harder part is the inspection record: 28 deficiencies logged, two serious enough to risk harm, three tied to abuse, plus two fines near $29,000. That mix, strong daily care, rougher oversight history, is what a family should weigh, especially with individual for-profit ownership.

Ross Manor runs on 4.34 nurse hours per resident per day, about 12% above the national average, and its staff turnover of 27.3% sits well below the 45.8% national figure, a sign people tend to stay. Weekends thin out roughly 9% from weekday coverage, worth knowing if your visits land on Saturdays. The tradeoffs show up elsewhere: 38 deficiencies on the current record, including one at the harm level and three tied to abuse, plus an $8,018 fine. Quality measures rate low even as staffing rates high, and the last inspection was April 2025.

Eastside Center runs 4.23 nurse hours per resident day, about 9% above the national average, and its staff turnover of 37% beats the 45.8% national figure, both signs of a stable floor. Weekend coverage, though, dips roughly 9% below its own weekday levels, so care may thin out when families visit. The trouble sits in inspections: 33 deficiencies on record, including one at the harm level and one abuse-related, with a $11,190 fine and a two-star health inspection rating despite strong marks for staffing and quality measures. A recent April 2026 inspection means the record is current, not stale.

Maine Veterans Home in Bangor runs 120 certified beds and puts 5.13 nursing hours behind each resident per day, roughly a third more than the national average of 3.86. That's real coverage, though weekends dip about 14% below the home's own weekday levels, so the floor is thinner on Saturdays and Sundays. Staff turnover sits at 45.9%, essentially identical to the national rate, so retention isn't the problem here. The trouble is everything else: 38 deficiencies, two at harm or jeopardy level, four tied to abuse, and $74,698 in fines. The most recent inspection closed in August 2025. Good staffing is doing a lot of work holding this one up.

Bangor Nursing & Rehabilitation Center runs a 60-bed nonprofit home where the aides and nurses show up, staffing sits just above the national average at 3.95 hours per resident day, though weekends dip about 9% below weekdays. The trouble shows up elsewhere. Staff turnover is 63.9%, well past the 45.8% national figure, and the inspection record carries 61 deficiencies, including one at the harm level and two tied to abuse, with a $12,831 fine attached. The most recent inspection was January 2026. A stable aide who knows a resident matters, but on this record, the care quality and inspection results are where a family should look hardest.
