How for-profit homes in New York compare
This group set against every nursing home in New York, from the current CMS release.
Nurse staffing at this Williamsville home runs 3.02 hours per resident day, roughly 22% under the national average, and weekends drop about 11% below its own weekday levels, so coverage thins out exactly when families tend to visit. Annual turnover of 72.7% sits well above the 45.8% national figure, meaning the aides and nurses caring for residents are, more often than not, new to the building. The current record carries 45 deficiencies, including one at the harm-or-jeopardy level and three tied to abuse, plus a $37,138 fine and a December 2024 inspection. For-profit LLC ownership, 142 beds.
Houghton Rehabilitation & Nursing Center runs about 2.69 nurse hours per resident per day, roughly 30% under the national average of 3.86, and weekend coverage dips another 13% below what it manages on weekdays. Staff turnover sits at 57.7%, well above the 45.8% national figure, which means the people caring for residents are changing often. Its current record shows 21 deficiencies, including one at the harm or jeopardy level and three tied to abuse, along with a $65,052 fine. The last inspection was in May 2025, so the picture is recent. This is a for-profit limited liability company, 100 beds, with two-out-of-five stars on health inspections, quality measures, and staffing alike.
The Grand Rehabilitation and Nursing at Barnwell carries 236 certified beds and a for-profit partnership structure, with 69 deficiencies on its current record, including two at the harm or jeopardy level and six tied to abuse. That record is why CMS placed it in the Special Focus Facility program, a designation reserved for homes with a pattern of persistent problems, and the $160,303 in fines across three actions reflects it. Nurse staffing sits at 2.54 hours per resident day, roughly a third below the national average, and weekends run about 23% lighter than weekdays, a gap that matters most when families visit. Turnover of 42.5% is slightly better than the national figure, but stability at the top doesn't offset what inspections keep finding.
The Grand Rehabilitation and Nursing at Rome runs on 3.09 nurse hours per resident per day, roughly a fifth below the national average, and weekend coverage drops another 18% below its own weekday levels. Its inspection record carries 38 deficiencies, including two at the harm or jeopardy level and three tied to abuse, with $76,542 in fines and a 1-out-of-5 rating on all three CMS measures. Staff turnover sits at 40.8%, a bit better than the 45.8% national figure, so the problem here looks less like constant churn than like thin staffing and a serious inspection history that has not been resolved.
Colonial Park runs on 3.04 nurse staffing hours per resident day, roughly a fifth below the national average of 3.86, and weekends drop another 11% below what the home staffs on weekdays. Turnover sits at 50.7%, higher than the 45.8% national figure, so the aides and nurses caring for residents are frequently new to the building. The current inspection record carries 38 deficiencies, including one at the harm level and one abuse-related, plus a $58,988 fine; the last inspection was April 17, 2026. Resident outcomes and staffing both score 1 out of 5 from CMS, with inspections at 2, which tells you where the problems concentrate. This is a for-profit partnership operating 80 beds.
Rosewood Rehabilitation And Nursing Center runs about 2.86 nurse hours per resident per day, roughly a quarter below the national average, and weekends drop another 15% under its own weekday levels. Annual turnover sits at 73% against a national 45.8%, so the people around your family member keep changing. The inspection record is the real warning: 45 deficiencies, three at harm or jeopardy level, three tied to abuse, and nine fines totaling $219,130, with CMS placing the home in its Special Focus Facility program. That program exists for homes with a persistent pattern of poor care, not a single bad survey. The quality measure rating looks good on paper, but it reflects resident assessments, not whether enough staff are present to act on them.
The Grand Rehabilitation and Nrsg At Guilderland runs on 2.91 nurse hours per resident day, roughly a quarter below the national average, and weekends drop about another 15% below its own weekday level. Staff turnover sits at 56.1%, well above the 45.8% national figure, and CMS has flagged the home for its Special Focus Facility program after 56 deficiencies, including one at the harm level and two tied to abuse. A $40,937 fine and a one-star inspection rating round out a record that's been on CMS's watch list since at least its March 2025 inspection. If you're considering this one, ask hard questions about weekend coverage and who's actually on the floor.
Campbell Hall Rehabilitation Center is a for-profit home with 134 beds, and the numbers behind its record are worth sitting with. Nurse staffing sits at 3.03 hours per resident day, roughly a fifth below the national average, and weekends run about 11% thinner than weekdays, which matters if your family visits on a Saturday or Sunday. Its inspection history shows 67 deficiencies, including three at the harm or jeopardy level and five related to abuse, with 22 fines totaling $190,505. Staff turnover runs 48.5%, above the national figure, and CMS has placed the home in its Special Focus Facility program. All three of its CMS star ratings sit at one out of five.
Onondaga Center runs 82 beds under corporate ownership, and its staffing is the first thing that stands out: 3.25 nurse hours per resident day, roughly 16% under the national average, with weekends about 20% thinner than weekdays. Turnover sits near 70% against a national rate around 46%, so the people caring for residents keep changing.
The inspection record backs that up, 48 deficiencies, four serious enough to involve harm or jeopardy, three tied to abuse, and $191,992 in fines across three penalties. CMS has placed it in the Special Focus Facility program, a designation for homes with a pattern of poor inspections. The most recent inspection was in November 2025.
Maple City runs on 3.01 nurse hours per resident per day, roughly a fifth below the national average, and weekends drop another 22% under its own weekday numbers, so the thinnest coverage lands when families tend to visit. Staff turnover sits at 57.3% against a national 45.8%, meaning more than half the nursing staff turns over in a year. The current record carries 25 deficiencies, including two at harm or jeopardy level and two tied to abuse, plus a $62,207 fine, and the last inspection was August 2024. All three CMS ratings, health inspections, quality measures, and staffing, sit at one star.
Bishop Rehabilitation and Nursing Center is a 440-bed for-profit home in Syracuse, and the numbers behind its record are worth walking through slowly. Nurse staffing sits at 3.52 hours per resident per day, roughly 9% under the national average, and weekends drop about 18% below what the home itself staffs on weekdays, so coverage is thinnest exactly when families tend to visit. Staff turnover runs 55.7% against a national 45.8%, meaning more than half the nursing staff leaves within a year. Its current inspection record carries 51 deficiencies, 12 at harm or jeopardy level and one abuse-related, with two fines totaling $699,602 and a May 2025 inspection.
Ontario Center runs on 3.02 nurse hours per resident per day, well under the 3.86 national average, and weekends drop about 22% below its own weekday staffing. That thin coverage sits alongside 80.6% annual turnover, meaning most of the people caring for residents weren't there a year ago. CMS has placed it in the Special Focus Facility program, which is reserved for homes with a persistent pattern of poor inspections, and the record backs that up: 41 deficiencies, including three at the harm level and two tied to abuse, plus a $117,878 fine. One star on health inspections and one on staffing, with a state survey completed in January 2025.
Elderwood At Waverly runs 200 certified beds in Tioga County under for-profit individual ownership, and the numbers behind its record deserve a close look. Nurse staffing sits at 2.66 hours per resident day, roughly 31% under the national average of 3.86, and weekends drop about 18% below what the home staffs on weekdays, so coverage thins out exactly when families tend to visit. Annual turnover of 67.5% against a 45.8% national average means the aides and nurses caring for residents are frequently new. The current inspection record carries 26 deficiencies, including two at the harm or jeopardy level and two abuse-related, plus $120,884 in fines.
Troy Victorian runs 2.96 nurse staffing hours per resident day against a national average of 3.86, and weekends drop roughly 17% below what the home itself staffs on weekdays. Staff turnover sits at 57.4%, more than half the nursing staff leaving in a year, which matters even more at a place where CMS has flagged 11 abuse-related deficiencies. The home carries 73 deficiencies on its current record, three serious enough to cause harm, plus $269,574 in fines, and CMS has placed it in the Special Focus Facility program, reserved for the worst performers in the country. If you're considering this one for someone you love, ask what the turnover and weekend coverage look like on the specific unit and shift you're considering.
