How for-profit homes in New York compare
This group set against every nursing home in New York, from the current CMS release.
You're looking at a hundred-bed for-profit home in Elizabethtown where the numbers tell two different stories. The clinical quality measures look decent, and 19 deficiencies with none at the harm level isn't alarming on its own, but three of those are abuse-related, and that's the kind of thing you ask about directly. What stands out more is the workforce: nurses provide about 3.25 hours of care per resident per day, roughly 16 percent under the national average, and weekends run thinner than weekdays. Staff turnover near 82 percent, against a national 46, means the people showing up are often new. Inspectors last visited in November 2024. Ask how they hold staffing steady on Saturdays.
Elderwood At Lockport runs 3.54 nurse hours per resident per day, about 8% under the national average of 3.86, and weekends dip roughly 6% below its own weekday coverage. Staff turnover sits at 51.5% against a 45.8% national figure, so the people caring for residents are changing often. Ten deficiencies are on the current record, one serious enough to reach harm or jeopardy level, and a single fine has totaled $94,185. The last inspection was May 2025, so the picture is reasonably recent. For-profit LLC ownership, 126 beds, and staffing that trails the benchmark by a small but steady margin, that's the pattern worth weighing against the location and your own visits.
Latta Road Nursing Home East runs a 40-bed operation in Rochester, and the numbers tell a mixed story. Nurse staffing sits at 3.48 hours per resident day, about 10% under the national average, and weekends dip roughly 8% below what the home itself manages on weekdays, meaning coverage thins out right when families tend to visit. Staff turnover lands at 45.7%, essentially matching the national rate, so that's not the outlier here. What stands out more is the inspection record: 17 deficiencies currently on file, including one at the harm or jeopardy level and two tied to abuse, along with a single fine of $8,979. The last inspection was in April 2025, so the picture is reasonably current rather than stale.
Putnam Ridge is a 160-bed for-profit home in Brewster, and its inspection record is the thing to look at first. Forty-four deficiencies are on file, including four tied to abuse and one at the level where a resident was actually harmed or put in jeopardy. That's a lot of findings, and the one-star health inspection rating reflects it. Nurse staffing runs 3.62 hours per resident day, about 6% under the national average, and weekends dip roughly 9% below its own weekday numbers, so coverage thins out exactly when families tend to visit. Turnover sits near the national average, which is the one number here that isn't a concern. The last full inspection was in October 2023, so ask what's changed since.
The Grand Rehabilitation and Nursing at River Valley runs on thinner nurse staffing than most homes, about 3.16 hours per resident day against a national average of 3.86, with weekends dropping roughly 19% below its own weekday levels. Turnover sits at 24.6%, which is actually well below the national 45.8%, so the people who stay tend to stay. The current record carries 28 deficiencies, none at harm or jeopardy level, but three tied to abuse, and the last inspection was January 28, 2026. Quality measures score lowest of the three CMS categories. It's a 160-bed for-profit corporation, recently inspected, with a mixed record worth asking about directly.
Prestige Nursing Care & Rehab Center runs 400 certified beds in the Bronx under for-profit LLC ownership, and its nurse staffing sits at 3.49 hours per resident day, roughly 10% under the national average of 3.86, with weekends about 12% thinner than its own weekdays. Staff turnover is 37.1%, which is actually better than the 45.8% national figure, so retention isn't the weak spot here. The inspection record is: 12 deficiencies, one at harm or jeopardy level, two tied to abuse, and a single fine of $8,788. The most recent inspection was April 16, 2026. CMS gives it 3 stars for health inspections, 3 for staffing, but just 1 for quality measures.
Elderwood At Amherst runs 92 beds under for-profit LLC ownership, and the staffing numbers are the first thing I'd flag. At 3.80 nurse hours per resident day, it sits just under the national average of 3.86, and weekends drop roughly 15% below its own weekday coverage, that's when you're most likely to notice a difference. Turnover tells a bigger story: 57.4% annually against a national 45.8%, meaning more than half the nursing staff turns over each year. Twelve deficiencies sit on the current record, including three tied to abuse and one at the harm level, with a $25,262 fine. The most recent inspection was April 2025, so the record is relatively current. Quality measures score well; the inspection and staffing picture is where the concern lives.
New Riverdale Rehab And Nursing runs on 2.58 nurse staffing hours per resident day, roughly a third below the national average of 3.86, and weekends dip about 7% below its own weekday levels, so coverage is thinnest exactly when families tend to visit. The 146-bed for-profit home carries 22 deficiencies on its current record, including one at the harm or jeopardy level and three tied to abuse, plus a $46,905 fine; its last inspection was March 2025. Staff turnover of 34.4% is better than the 45.8% national figure, and the 5/5 quality measure rating stands out against a 2/5 inspection rating. Ask about weekend coverage and how the abuse deficiencies were resolved.
Clove Lakes is a 576-bed for-profit home in Staten Island with a split personality in its federal ratings: top marks on quality measures, but a one-star health inspection record and placement in CMS's Special Focus Facility program, a designation reserved for homes with a pattern of serious, persistent problems. Its current record shows 35 deficiencies, including four at the harm or jeopardy level and six tied to abuse. Nurse staffing runs about 13% below the national average and dips further on weekends. The one number that stands out favorably is turnover, 27.5% against a national average near 46%, meaning the staff it has tend to stay. That's worth asking about on a visit, but it doesn't offset the inspection history.
The Paramount at Somers is a 300-bed for-profit home in Westchester County, and the federal numbers show a wide split between how it's staffed and how its residents are doing. Nurses provide 2.76 hours of care per resident per day, roughly 28 percent below the national average, and weekend staffing drops about 8 percent below its own weekday level. Staff turnover sits at 46.6 percent, a touch above the national average. On paper the quality measures look strong, but the inspection record does not: 44 deficiencies, four at harm or jeopardy level, six tied to abuse, a $46,079 fine, and a one-star inspection rating from a visit in November 2024.
Troy Center for Rehabilitation and Nursing runs 78 certified beds under corporate for-profit ownership, and its inspection record is the biggest thing to know: 38 deficiencies on the current record, including one at the harm or jeopardy level and three tied to abuse. Its last health inspection was February 2024, and CMS gives that inspection record a single star out of five. Staffing tells a similar story, 3.72 nurse hours per resident day sits about 4% under the national average, weekend coverage drops roughly 13% below its own weekday level, and annual turnover runs 63.9% against a national 45.8%. Quality measures score well, but they don't offset a troubled inspection history or thin, churning staff.
Steuben Center runs 105 beds in Bath under corporate ownership, and its staffing numbers are the first thing worth noticing. At 3.69 nurse hours per resident day, it sits a bit under the national average, and weekends drop roughly 28% below its own weekday levels, so coverage thins out exactly when families tend to visit. Annual turnover of 59.6% is well above the national 45.8%, meaning the aides and nurses caring for residents are frequently new. The inspection record shows 19 deficiencies, none at harm level and none abuse-related, with the last visit in May 2024. Quality measures score well; staffing is where this home is weakest.
Montgomery Nursing and Rehabilitation Center runs about 3.07 nurse hours per resident day against a national average of 3.86, roughly a fifth less hands-on time, and weekends dip another 10% below its own weekdays. Turnover sits at 38.5%, better than the 45.8% national figure, so the people who stay tend to stay. Inspections are the weak spot: a 2-out-of-5 health inspection rating, 27 deficiencies on the current record including one abuse-related citation, though none rose to actual harm or jeopardy. The last survey was January 2025, so that record is recent. Quality measures score well at 4 out of 5, which softens the picture but doesn't change the staffing math.
Sans Souci runs 120 beds in Yonkers under for-profit LLC ownership, and the staffing numbers are the first thing to look at: 3.28 nurse hours per resident day, roughly 15% under the national average, with weekends about 9% thinner than weekdays. Turnover sits at 38.5%, actually better than the national 45.8%, so the issue isn't retention so much as how many hands are scheduled on a given shift. The inspection record is where it gets harder to ignore: 47 deficiencies, seven tied to abuse, and a one-star health inspection rating, though none of those citations rose to harm or jeopardy level. State surveys last visited in August 2024. The five-star quality measure score reflects reported clinical data, not the survey history.
Renaissance Rehabilitation and Nursing Care Center in Staatsburg is a for-profit home with 120 certified beds, and its staffing is the first thing that stands out: 2.10 total nurse hours per resident per day, roughly 46% under the national average of 3.86, with weekends running about 14% thinner than weekdays. That shortfall shows up in CMS's staffing rating of 1 out of 5, and the inspection record is worse, a 1-star health inspection rating, 56 deficiencies including 2 at harm or jeopardy level and 5 abuse-related, and placement in the federal Special Focus Facility program. Turnover at 23.9% is better than the 45.8% national figure, and the 4-star quality measure rating reflects resident outcome data, but the September 2024 inspection and the enforcement history carry more weight here.
Ferncliff runs 309 certified beds in Rhinebeck under corporate ownership, and the staffing numbers are the first thing to notice. At 3.25 nurse hours per resident day, it sits about 16% under the national average, and weekends drop roughly 16% below its own weekday coverage, so the thinnest shifts are the ones families tend to visit. The inspection record backs that up: 34 deficiencies, including one at harm level and four tied to abuse, with a 1-out-of-5 health inspection rating from CMS. Turnover at 40.7% is slightly better than the national 45.8%, and quality measures rate 5 out of 5, but a February 2025 inspection keeps the health record current and unresolved.
Washington Center for Rehab and Healthcare runs 122 certified beds in Argyle under corporate for-profit ownership, and its nurse staffing sits at 3.38 hours per resident day, roughly 12% under the national average of 3.86. Weekends dip about 11% below the home's own weekday coverage, a gap families often notice when they visit on Saturdays and Sundays. The inspection record shows 12 deficiencies, including one at the harm or jeopardy level and three tied to abuse, with one fine totaling $9,620 and the most recent inspection in September 2025. Staff turnover at 44.3% lands just under the national figure of 45.8%, so retention isn't the standout problem here, the survey history is.
Samaritan Keep is a 272-bed for-profit home in Watertown, and its numbers tell two different stories. The good one is quality measures, where it rates 4 out of 5, but that sits next to a 1-star health inspection record with 30 deficiencies, including three at harm or jeopardy level and four tied to abuse, plus two fines totaling $76,137. Staffing looks better on paper at 4.05 nurse hours per resident day, about 5% above the national average, but weekends run roughly 20% below its own weekday level, and CMS rates staffing just 2 stars. Its most recent inspection was March 2026, so the record is current. Ask about weekend coverage and how the abuse-related findings were resolved.
Triboro Center is a big for-profit home in the Bronx, 515 beds, and the numbers tell a mixed story. Nurse staffing sits at 3.43 hours per resident day, roughly 11% under the national average, and weekends run another 11% thinner than weekdays, so coverage dips exactly when families tend to visit. On the other hand, turnover at 32.8% is noticeably better than the 45.8% national figure, which suggests some stability in the workforce. The inspection record is the concern: 18 deficiencies, including one at the harm level and five tied to abuse, with the last inspection in February 2024.
Fiddlers Green Manor runs about 2.90 nurse hours per resident day against a national average of 3.86, a roughly 25% shortfall, and weekends drop another 11% below its own weekday levels, so coverage thins out exactly when families tend to visit. The 82-bed for-profit home has 8 deficiencies on its current record, including 2 at the harm level and 4 tied to abuse, plus two fines totaling $25,470; its last inspection was February 2026. Staff turnover at 38.8% is better than the 45.8% national figure, and its quality measures score well, but with the health inspection and staffing ratings both at 2 out of 5, the care-numbers side is doing the heavy lifting here.
