Staff turnover
21%

Care Village At Mattapan runs about 2.85 nurse hours per resident per day, roughly a quarter below the national average of 3.86, and weekend coverage dips a bit further below its own weekday numbers. That thin staffing sits alongside 58 deficiencies on the current record, including one at the harm level and five flagged as abuse-related, which is a lot for an 85-bed home; the inspection history and staffing both land at 2 out of 5 stars, while quality measures come in at 4. Staff turnover of 20.8% is well under the national average of 45.8%, so the people who are there tend to stay. The last inspection was February 19, 2026.

Benjamin Healthcare Center is a 205-bed nonprofit home in Boston that keeps its staff. Turnover runs 11.5% a year against a national average near 46%, and CMS gives it 4 out of 5 stars for staffing and for quality measures. Those numbers are real, and they matter for day-to-day care. What pulls it down is everything the state and federal inspectors found. Thirty-two deficiencies sit on the current record, including two at the harm or jeopardy level and two tied to abuse. One fine of $96,705. A 1-star health inspection rating, and a place in the Special Focus Facility program, which CMS reserves for the homes it watches most closely. The last inspection was April 30, 2025. If you're considering this one, ask what's being done about those deficiencies.

The nurse staffing here runs about 4.62 hours per resident day, roughly 20% above the national average, and the staff tends to stay, 32.7% turnover against a national rate near 46%. Weekends are thinner, though, running about 15% below weekday coverage, so ask how weekends are actually handled. The inspection record is mixed: 29 deficiencies on file, two of them serious enough to involve harm or jeopardy, and $166,780 in fines across 14 penalties. No abuse citations. The last inspection was recent, February 2026, and the health inspection rating sits at 4 of 5 stars.

Holden Rehabilitation & Nursing Center runs on 4.69 nurse hours per resident day, roughly 22% more than the national average, though weekend coverage dips about 8% below its own weekday level. Staff turnover sits at 35.8%, well under the 45.8% national figure, which matters for consistent care. The home's 13 deficiencies include one abuse-related citation, but none rose to harm or jeopardy, and its last inspection was in February 2025. With 123 certified beds under corporate for-profit ownership, this is a solidly average home on paper, good staffing, a clean harm record, and a recent survey, but not one where the numbers suggest anything exceptional.

Cape Regency runs lean on nursing hours, 3.35 per resident day, roughly 13 percent under the national average, and weekends dip about 12 percent below its own weekday levels. Turnover is the one bright spot: 29.1 percent against a national 45.8 percent, so the staff who are there tend to stay. The inspection record is the real problem. Forty-seven deficiencies on the current record, one serious enough to reach harm or jeopardy level, with the most recent inspection in May 2025. For-profit, LLC-owned, 120 beds. If you're weighing this one, ask specifically about that harm-level finding and how the home covers weekends.

St. Joseph Rehab & Nursing Care Center runs 123 certified beds in Dorchester under for-profit LLC ownership. Nurse staffing sits at 3.72 hours per resident day, roughly 4% under the national average, and weekends drop about 10% below the home's own weekday coverage, the pattern families often notice when visiting on a Saturday. Turnover of 37.7% is actually better than the 45.8% national figure, so retention isn't the weak spot here. The inspection record is: 44 deficiencies, four of them at harm or jeopardy level and one abuse-related, with two fines totaling $82,612. The most recent inspection was February 2026. Weigh the harm-level citations and the $82,612 in fines against that decent turnover number.

Eliot Center runs 114 beds in Natick under for-profit LLC ownership, and its staffing sits at 3.71 nurse hours per resident day, about 4% under the national average, with weekends roughly 7% thinner than weekdays. Turnover is 40.5%, which is actually better than the 45.8% national figure, so the same faces are more likely to stick around. The bigger concern is the inspection record: 43 deficiencies with a 2-star health inspection rating, though none rose to harm or jeopardy and none involved abuse. The most recent inspection was January 2025, so the picture is current. Quality measures also land at 2 stars.

Chicopee Rehabilitation and Nursing runs 68 beds under a for-profit LLC, and its staffing sits about 8% under the national average at 3.55 nurse hours per resident day. Weekends dip roughly 5% below its own weekday coverage, so the thinnest shifts land when families tend to visit. Turnover is the bright spot: 32.1% against a national 45.8%. The tradeoff shows up in its record, 27 deficiencies, two serious enough to involve harm or jeopardy, and one $7,901 fine, with the most recent inspection in February 2025. Quality measures score well; staffing is where this home is weakest.

Serious cites

Royal Megansett runs about 3.92 nurse hours per resident per day, just barely above the national average, but that thin margin is worth a closer look, because weekend staffing drops roughly 11% below what the home covers Monday through Friday. The staffing star comes in at 2 out of 5, and turnover sits at 48.1%, a bit worse than the 45.8% national figure. The current record shows 23 deficiencies, none at the harm level but one abuse-related, and inspectors were last on site in April 2025, which is recent enough. A 4-star inspection rating and 3-star quality measures are the stronger parts of the picture; staffing is the weak one.

Brockton Post Acute Care runs 169 beds under for-profit LLC ownership, and its staffing sits at 3.47 nurse hours per resident day, roughly 10% under the national average of 3.86. Weekends dip another 10% below its own weekday levels, so coverage is thinnest exactly when families tend to visit. Turnover is 37.5%, which is actually better than the 45.8% national figure, and the quality measure rating is a perfect 5/5. But 33 deficiencies sit on the current record, and the staffing star is only 2/5. Nothing on that list rises to harm or jeopardy level, and the most recent inspection was April 2025, recent enough to trust.

Vantage At Sudbury runs 142 certified beds under corporate ownership, and its staffing sits at 3.59 nurse hours per resident day, about 7% under the national average, with weekends dipping roughly 9% below its own weekday levels. Turnover is the bright spot at 31.9%, well under the 45.8% national figure, which suggests people tend to stay. The trouble is elsewhere: 44 deficiencies on the current record, including one at the harm level and three tied to abuse, plus a $15,672 fine and a recent March 2026 inspection. Two out of five on health inspections and quality measures tells you where the problems concentrate.

Masconomet Rehabilitation runs 3.68 nurse hours per resident day, roughly 5% under the national average, and weekends dip about 8% below its own weekday levels, so the thinnest coverage comes when families tend to visit. Staff turnover is 54.8% against a national 45.8%, meaning more than half the nursing staff leaves each year, and CMS rates staffing 2 out of 5. The 13 deficiencies on record include nothing at the harm or jeopardy level and nothing abuse-related, and the most recent inspection was March 2026, so the record is current and free of serious findings. Ownership is a for-profit limited liability company.

Serenity Hill runs 44 beds under corporate ownership, and its nurse staffing sits at 4.04 hours per resident day, about 5% above the national average, with weekends dipping roughly 4% below weekdays. That's the good news, and it's real. The rest of the picture is harder: 38 deficiencies on the current record, with a 1-out-of-5 health inspection rating and the same score on quality measures. None of those deficiencies rose to harm or jeopardy, and none were abuse-related, which matters. The last inspection was March 3, 2026, so the record is recent. Staffing is the one measure holding above average here; inspections and quality are where the concerns concentrate.

Charlwell House runs on about 3.36 nurse hours per resident per day, roughly 13 percent under the national average, and weekends dip another 8 percent below its own weekday levels. What stands out is the inspection record: 63 deficiencies, four of them serious enough to cause harm or jeopardy, plus one tied to abuse, and the health inspection rating sits at 2 out of 5. Turnover is genuinely low, 27 percent against a national 45.8, and staffing earns 4 stars despite the thin hours. It's a for-profit LLC with 124 beds, last inspected in May 2025. The quality measure score of 1 out of 5 is the piece families should ask about directly.

Care One At Northampton runs 125 certified beds under for-profit LLC ownership, and its staffing numbers sit below what you'd want to see: 3.58 nurse hours per resident day against a national average of 3.86, with weekends dropping about 13% below its own weekday levels. That thinner weekend coverage matters, because that's often when families visit and when problems surface. Annual turnover hits 50%, above the 45.8% national figure, so the people caring for residents change over fairly often. The inspection record shows 21 deficiencies, three serious enough to reach harm or jeopardy level and one tied to abuse, plus two fines totaling $39,819. Its quality measure rating is strong, but that reflects charted care, not the staffing and inspection problems underneath.

Woburn Rehabilitation and Nursing Center runs 140 beds under corporate ownership, and its staffing sits just above the national average at 3.95 nurse hours per resident day. That margin is thin, and weekends dip about 11% below the home's own weekday coverage, so the care you'd see on a Saturday may look lighter than what the weekday number suggests. Staff turnover of 36.1% is meaningfully better than the 45.8% national average, which matters for consistency. The inspection record is the harder read: 34 deficiencies on file, including one at the harm level and two tied to abuse, plus a $8,512 fine. The last inspection was in January 2025.

Craneville runs on thinner staffing than most homes, and the gap widens on weekends. At 3.67 nurse hours per resident day, it sits about 5% under the national average of 3.86, and weekend coverage drops roughly 12% below what the home provides Monday through Friday. Annual turnover of 52.3% is higher than the 45.8% national figure, which means aides and nurses cycle through faster than average, worth asking how that affects who's actually on the floor. The health inspection side looks better: a 4-out-of-5 rating with no deficiencies at the harm or jeopardy level and nothing abuse-related on a record of 18 total. Its last inspection was in April 2025.

Weekends dip about 9% below its own weekday coverage, so the thinnest shifts come when families tend to visit. Turnover lands at 41.5%, a bit better than the 45.8% national figure, and the inspection record shows 21 deficiencies, one serious enough to involve harm or jeopardy, plus a single fine of $8,278. Its last inspection was December 2025, so the record is recent. Quality measures score well; staffing and inspections are where the gaps sit.

Sunny Acres runs lean on nursing hours, 3.33 per resident day against a national average of 3.86, and weekends drop about 12% below its own weekday coverage. That's the main thing pulling its staffing picture down. Where it looks steadier is on the clinical and inspection side: a 4-out-of-5 health inspection rating with a recent May 2025 survey, 23 deficiencies on record but none involving harm or abuse, and a 4-out-of-5 quality measure score. Turnover sits at 41.7%, slightly better than the 45.8% national figure, and it's a for-profit LLC. If your family member needs consistent weekday care, the numbers here are workable; weekend coverage is where I'd ask questions.

Andover Forest runs 142 beds in North Andover under corporate ownership, and its nurse staffing sits at 3.59 hours per resident day, about 7% under the national average of 3.86. Weekends drop roughly 14% below what the home staffs on weekdays, so coverage thins out exactly when families tend to visit. The inspection record is the bigger concern: 44 deficiencies, five of them serious enough to involve harm or jeopardy, plus three fines totaling $44,265. On the positive side, turnover at 38.9% beats the 45.8% national figure, and the quality measure rating is strong. But a 2/5 inspection score and staffing below average carry real weight.
