The Hebrew Rehabilitation Center's Recuperative Services Unit runs 50 certified beds under nonprofit ownership in Boston, and its nurse staffing sits at 5.02 hours per resident day, roughly 30% above the national average of 3.86. Weekend coverage dips about 8% below its own weekday levels, so the weekday-to-weekend difference is worth asking about if your family member needs consistent attention on Saturdays and Sundays. The home carries 12 deficiencies on its current record, none at the harm or jeopardy level and none abuse-related, and its last inspection was in July 2025. Quality measures score 5 out of 5 stars, health inspections 4 out of 5, staffing 3 out of 5.

Newbridge On The Charles runs 4.56 nurse hours per resident day, roughly 18% above the national average of 3.86, and that staffing edge holds up on weekends, which dip only about 8% below the home's own weekday level. The inspection record is thin in the best sense: one deficiency total, none at harm or jeopardy level, none abuse-related, with the last survey dated May 2026. Staffing earns four stars rather than five, so this isn't a home coasting on reputation; it's a nonprofit with a clean record and above-average coverage that loses a little ground on weekends. For families comparing options in Norfolk County, the numbers here are steady rather than spectacular.

Laurel Ridge runs on 4.21 nurse hours per resident day, roughly 9% more than the national average, which is the main reason its staffing picture holds up. The trade-off is timing: weekends run about 13% leaner than weekdays, so coverage isn't perfectly even across the week. A 25.6% annual turnover rate is well below the 45.8% national figure, meaning the aides and nurses you meet are more likely to still be there next year. Inspections from May 2025 turned up 16 deficiencies, none at the harm level, though one is abuse-related.

Beaumont Rehab & Skilled Nursing Ctr - Northboro runs 96 certified beds under for-profit LLC ownership, and the numbers tell a mixed but mostly steady story. Nurse staffing sits at 3.74 hours per resident day, a bit under the national average of 3.86, with weekends running about 11% lighter than weekdays, a gap worth asking about if your family member needs consistent weekend coverage. Turnover is the brighter spot: 34.6% against a national 45.8%, meaning caregivers here tend to stay longer than at the typical home. The inspection record shows 16 deficiencies, none at harm or jeopardy level, though one is abuse-related. A June 2025 inspection means the record is recent.

Bethany Skilled Nursing Facility runs on 4.90 nurse hours per resident day, roughly 27% above the national figure, and weekends dip only about 7% below its own weekday staffing, a modest drop for a 169-bed home. Inspectors visited recently, in June 2025, and the home holds a 5-star health inspection rating, though the current record still shows four deficiencies, two of them serious enough to reach harm or jeopardy level, plus one fine of $9,318. Staff turnover sits at 45.2%, essentially the national average of 45.8%, which means this nonprofit retains caregivers about as well as everyone else. Strong staffing and a clean recent inspection carry the weight here; the harm-level citations are what hold it back.

Overlook Masonic Health Center runs on 4.40 nurse hours per resident day, roughly 14% above the national average, which is the kind of margin that shows up in everyday care. Weekend staffing dips about 7% below its own weekday level, though, so coverage isn't perfectly even across the week. Staff turnover sits at 40.1%, better than the 45.8% national figure but still meaning two in five caregivers left last year. The inspection record shows 14 deficiencies, none at harm or jeopardy level, with one abuse-related finding, worth asking about directly. State inspectors last visited in May 2025.

Greenwood Nursing & Rehabilitation Center is a small for-profit home in Wakefield, 36 beds, run by a limited liability company. Staffing sits a little above the national average at 3.99 nurse hours per resident day, and weekends dip about 9% below its own weekday coverage, so ask how that gap gets covered. Turnover is the standout number: 26.5% against a national average near 46%, which matters because consistent caregivers tend to know residents' routines. The inspection record is current, dated August 2025, with 13 deficiencies but nothing at the harm level and nothing abuse-related. Quality measures score well, and four out of five on inspections and staffing backs that up.

New England Homes For The Deaf runs 81 certified beds in Danvers under nonprofit ownership, and its nurse staffing sits at 4.92 hours per resident day, roughly 28% above the national average. Weekend coverage dips about 10% below its own weekday level, so that strong average isn't perfectly even across the week. Staff turnover comes in at 42.5%, a touch better than the national 45.8%. The tradeoff shows up in its record: 22 deficiencies, including two tied to abuse, though none reached harm or jeopardy, and just one fine of $3,174. Its last inspection was March 2025, so the picture is current.

Lakeview House runs on 4.19 nurse hours per resident day, roughly 8% above the national average, and its staff retention is unusually strong for the industry, 20.8% turnover against a national average near 46%. The tradeoff shows up on weekends, when staffing drops about 19% below the home's own weekday levels. Inspectors logged 12 deficiencies, none at the harm or jeopardy level, though one is abuse-related; the most recent inspection was July 30, 2025, so the record is current. A 4/5 inspection rating and 4/5 quality measures round out a picture of a for-profit corporate home that is well-staffed on paper and mostly clean in practice, with the abuse citation and weekend dip worth asking about directly.

Queen Anne Nursing Home in Hingham runs on steady staffing: 3.99 nurse hours per resident day, a bit above the national average, though weekends dip about 6% below its own weekday levels. The number that stands out is turnover, 25.3% against a national average near 46%, meaning aides and nurses here tend to stay. State inspectors visited in June 2025 and logged 21 deficiencies, none at the level of harm or jeopardy and none related to abuse. Ownership is a for-profit partnership. The trade-off is ordinary and worth naming: a smaller, stable crew with weekend gaps, paired with a clean recent inspection record. Ask about weekend coverage specifically.

Countryside Health Care Of Milford is city-owned, and its 4.40 nurse hours per resident day sit about 14% above the national average. Turnover runs 31.4%, well under the 45.8% norm, so the people caring for residents tend to stick around. Weekend staffing dips only about 5% below weekday levels, a smaller drop than many homes show. The inspection record isn't spotless: 16 deficiencies, including one at the harm level and one abuse-related, though the most recent inspection came in February 2026 and the health inspection rating holds at 4 of 5. Quality measures land at 3 of 5, the softer spot in the data.

Liberty Commons runs on 4.68 nurse hours per resident day, about 21% above the national average, and that staffing level is the main reason it lands where it does. The catch is weekends, when coverage drops roughly 17% below its own weekday pace. Turnover sits at 40.7%, slightly better than the 45.8% national figure, which matters for whether care stays consistent. Inspections are the weak spot: a 2/5 health inspection rating, 16 deficiencies on record, one tied to abuse, though none reached harm or jeopardy level. The most recent inspection was January 9, 2026, so the picture is current. For-profit corporate ownership, 132 beds.

The Meadows runs 5.42 nursing hours per resident day, roughly 40% more than the national average of 3.86, and that holds up on weekends, which dip only about 8% from weekday coverage. That's the rare version of weekend staffing that doesn't fall off a cliff. The current inspection record is clean: zero deficiencies, including nothing at the harm level and nothing abuse-related, with the most recent survey dated August 2025. As a nonprofit corporation with 60 beds, it's small enough that administrators likely know the residents by name. The one soft spot in the federal ratings is quality measures at 4 out of 5, but staffing and inspections both sit at the top of that scale.

The Massachusetts Veterans Home at Chelsea runs on 6.97 nurse hours per resident day, roughly 81% more staffing than the national average of 3.86. That's an unusual amount of hands-on time, and it shows in the staffing star rating. Weekend coverage dips about 9% below its own weekday level, so ask how that plays out on a Saturday. State-run and inspected most recently in September 2025, it carries 24 deficiencies on its current record, three tied to abuse, though none at the harm or jeopardy level. A 4/5 inspection rating and 3/5 on quality measures round out a record that's solid on staffing, thinner on measured care quality.

Abbott Skilled Nursing runs 55 beds in Lynn under for-profit LLC ownership, and the numbers tell a story of steady hands rather than flashy ones. Nurse staffing sits at 3.63 hours per resident day, a bit under the national average, and weekends drop roughly 19 percent below weekdays, worth asking about if your family visits or calls on Saturdays and Sundays. What stands out is turnover at 23.1 percent, about half the national rate, which suggests people actually stay. Inspections in May 2025 produced 21 deficiencies, none at harm or jeopardy level, though four were abuse-related, a category you should ask about directly. Recent inspections and solid marks on health, quality, and staffing round it out.

Devereux runs 3.72 nursing hours per resident day, a bit under the national average of 3.86, and weekends dip roughly 8% below its own weekday coverage. That's a real gap if your family visits Saturdays and Sundays. The stronger numbers are elsewhere: turnover at 28.6% sits well under the 45.8% national figure, and inspections from July 2025 produced 18 deficiencies, none at harm or jeopardy level, though one was abuse-related, worth asking about directly. At 64 beds under for-profit LLC ownership, you're looking at a small, recently inspected home with stable staff and a thin staffing margin.

Sterling Village runs 143 certified beds out of a for-profit partnership, and the numbers are steadier than most. Total nurse staffing sits at 3.67 hours per resident day, roughly 5% under the national 3.86, so it's not a home that leans on extra hands, though the 28% annual turnover is well below the 45.8% national figure, which matters for whether you see the same faces month to month. Weekend coverage dips about 12% against its own weekdays, so a Saturday visit may look different from a Tuesday. Twelve deficiencies on record, none at harm or jeopardy level and none abuse-related, with a December 2025 inspection behind that.

The Pavilion in Hyannis runs a for-profit operation with 82 certified beds, and its staffing sits at 4.22 nurse hours per resident day, roughly 9% above the national average of 3.86. That edge narrows on weekends, which run about 11% leaner than weekdays, something to ask about if your family visits on Saturdays or Sundays. Staff turnover lands at 32.9%, well under the 45.8% national figure, which suggests people tend to stay. On the inspection side, four deficiencies are on record with none at harm or jeopardy level and nothing abuse-related; the most recent survey was June 17, 2025. Both health inspection and quality measure ratings come in at 5 out of 5, while staffing earns a 3.

Kimball Farms runs a nonprofit shop in Lenox with 74 certified beds, and the staffing numbers are genuinely better than most: 4.42 nurse hours per resident day against a national average of 3.86. Weekend coverage dips about 18% below its own weekday level, so ask how that plays out on a Saturday. Turnover sits at 41%, a bit under the 45.8% national figure, which matters because familiar aides tend to notice changes sooner. The inspection record is current as of December 2025, with nine deficiencies and none at the harm or jeopardy level. Four out of five stars across health inspections, quality measures, and staffing is a consistent profile, not a lopsided one.

Bradford's Whittier Bradford Transitional Care Unit is a small for-profit home, 20 beds, and its inspection record is clean: zero deficiencies on the current record, none at the harm or jeopardy level, no abuse citations, with the most recent inspection in July 2025. Nurse staffing sits at 7.18 hours per resident day, roughly 86% above the national average, so there's real coverage here. The catch is retention: annual turnover is 64.1%, well above the 45.8% national figure, and weekend staffing drops about 17% from its own weekday level. That churn matters in a 20-bed home, where losing even a couple of nurses changes who's at the bedside.
