Arbor Ridge runs lean on nursing hours, 3.34 per resident day against a national average of 3.86, and weekends drop roughly 11% below its own weekday coverage, which is when families tend to notice. The tradeoff shows up in retention: 24.5% turnover is well under the national 45.8%, so the aides and nurses who are there tend to stay, and the 5/5 quality measure rating suggests that consistency reaches residents. Seventeen deficiencies on record, none at harm or jeopardy level, but two tied to abuse, which is worth asking about directly. The last full inspection was October 2024, so the picture is reasonably current for a 120-bed for-profit run by an LLC.

Careone At Wayne runs about 4.27 nurse hours per resident per day, roughly 11% above the national average, and its staff turnover sits at 19.3%, well under half the national rate of 45.8%, which matters more than most families realize. The tradeoff is a slight weekend dip, with staffing about 7% below its own weekday level. On inspections, the record is clean where it counts: 8 deficiencies total, none at the harm or jeopardy level and none abuse-related, most recently surveyed in December 2025. The lower staffing star reflects hours rather than retention, so read the two together, steady, experienced caregivers, adequate but not generous coverage.

Atrium Post Acute Care of Wayne runs 209 certified beds under for-profit LLC ownership, and its nurse staffing sits right at the national average, 3.85 hours per resident day against 3.86 nationally.

What pulls the record down is the inspection side: 23 deficiencies, including one at harm or jeopardy level and two tied to abuse, plus $14,507 in fines. The most recent inspection was February 2025, so the picture is fairly current. Quality measures score well; the survey history is where caution lives.

Preakness Healthcare Center is county-owned and holds 406 beds, which makes it one of the larger homes in Passaic County. The staffing numbers are genuinely strong: 4.01 nurse hours per resident day, above the national average, and a 23.7% turnover rate that's roughly half the national figure, stable crews tend to know their residents. The problem is on the other side of the ledger. Thirty-five deficiencies on the current record, including one at the harm level and four tied to abuse, with a one-star health inspection rating. Weekend staffing also dips about 7% below its weekday level. Fines total $15,646, and the most recent inspection was January 2025. Ask about those abuse-related citations directly before you decide.

Llanfair House runs 180 certified beds in Wayne under individual for-profit ownership, and its staffing sits about 10% under the national average, 3.46 nurse hours per resident day against 3.86. That gap widens on weekends, when coverage drops roughly 15% below the home's own weekday level, and half the staff turned over in the past year, a bit worse than the 45.8% national figure. The inspection record carries more weight than the quality measures here: 36 deficiencies, five serious enough to involve harm or jeopardy, one tied to abuse, and a $47,304 fine. The most recent inspection was December 16, 2024, so the picture is fairly current. Quality measures score well; the direct-care and compliance side is where the concerns sit.

Complete Care At Wayne Hills runs 120 beds in Wayne under for-profit LLC ownership, and its nurse staffing sits at 3.36 hours per resident day, roughly 13 percent under the national average, with weekends dropping about 9 percent below its own weekday levels. The inspection record is the bigger problem: 34 deficiencies, including 2 at the harm or jeopardy level and 5 tied to abuse, plus two fines totaling $42,630. Staff turnover of 35.1 percent actually beats the national 45.8 percent, so retention isn't the issue here.

Excel Care At Wayne is a for-profit LLC home with 120 beds, and its staffing is where the trouble starts. At 3.28 nurse hours per resident day, it runs about 15% under the national average of 3.86, weekends dip another 9% below its own weekdays, and turnover sits at 75.2% against a national 45.8%, that's three out of four caregivers leaving in a year, which makes consistent care hard to sustain. Inspections in December 2024 turned up 10 deficiencies, one serious enough to involve harm or jeopardy, plus an $8,281 fine; the health inspection rating lands at 2 of 5 stars. The 4-star quality measure score reflects charted outcomes, but those depend on the staff actually being there to chart them.
