Piper Shores runs about 5.14 nurse hours per resident day, roughly a third more than the national average, and its quality and staffing marks both sit at the top of CMS's scale. Weekends dip about 9% below weekday coverage, which is worth asking about if your family visits then. Turnover lands at 40.7%, a bit better than the 45.8% national figure. The 21 deficiencies on record include nothing at the harm level and nothing abuse-related, and the most recent inspection was in December 2025, so the picture is current. As a nonprofit with 40 beds, it's small enough that you can press staff on specifics.

Maine Veterans Home in Scarborough runs a tight ship on the staffing side, 4.84 nurse hours per resident day, roughly a quarter above what's typical nationally, and its recent inspection history backs that up. State surveyors found nine deficiencies at the last visit in November 2024, but none rose to the level of actual harm or jeopardy, and there's nothing abuse-related on the record. Turnover sits at 36.4%, meaningfully better than the 45.8% national figure, though weekend coverage does dip about 13% below weekday levels, which is worth asking about. The one soft spot is the quality measure score, which lags at 2 out of 5 stars even as inspections and staffing both hit the top mark.

Pine Point Center runs 61 certified beds in Scarborough under for-profit LLC ownership, and its staffing sits right at the national line, 3.84 nurse hours per resident day against a 3.86 average, with weekends running about 8% thinner than weekdays. Turnover lands at 47%, a touch above the 45.8% national figure. The current record carries 27 deficiencies, none at the harm or jeopardy level, though one is abuse-related, and the most recent inspection was April 2025. Quality and staffing each earned 4 of 5 stars from CMS, while health inspections came in at 3. Nothing here looks dangerous; it looks ordinary, with a few soft spots worth asking about directly.
