Kendal On Hudson runs a small operation, just 26 certified beds, but the staffing numbers stand out. At 4.49 nurse hours per resident day, it beats the national average of 3.86 by roughly 16%, and weekend coverage dips only about 12% below its own weekday level. Staff turnover sits at 16.1% against a national average of 45.8%, which matters more than almost anything else for consistency of care. Nine deficiencies on the current record, none at the harm or jeopardy level, none abuse-related, and the most recent inspection was May 2024. Nonprofit ownership, strong inspection and quality ratings, the picture is steady rather than spectacular, which is usually what you want.

Elizabeth Seton Children's Center runs on a nonprofit model with 169 certified beds, and the staffing numbers stand out right away: 11.06 nurse hours per resident day, roughly triple the national average of 3.86. Weekend coverage dips about 7% below weekday levels, but that's a modest gap given the overall volume. Staff turnover sits at 22.2%, well under the national 45.8%, which suggests people stay. Inspections in August 2025 turned up 14 deficiencies, none at the harm or jeopardy level, though four were abuse-related, worth asking about directly. The quality and staffing ratings both come in at the top of CMS's scale, and the health inspection rating is close behind.

Sunshine Children's Home in Ossining runs 9.75 nurse hours per resident per day, roughly two and a half times the national average, and weekend staffing dips only about 10% below its weekday level, so care doesn't thin out much when families visit. Turnover sits at 35.9%, well under the 45.8% national figure, which matters in a building where consistency of caregivers is half the job. Federal inspectors gave it top marks across health inspections, quality measures, and staffing, and the most recent survey in June 2025 produced four deficiencies, none at the harm level, though two were abuse-related, worth asking about directly.

The Osborn runs a leaner ship than most: 4.59 nurse hours per resident each day, roughly a fifth more staffing than the national average, and weekend coverage that dips only about 15% below weekday levels, a smaller gap than many homes show. Turnover sits at 42.6%, slightly better than the national 45.8%, though still meaning four in ten staff left last year. The inspection history is the softer spot: 19 deficiencies on record, none rising to harm or jeopardy and none abuse-related, with the most recent survey in February 2025. As a nonprofit, there's no ownership group extracting profit, which tends to show up in numbers like these.

The Knolls runs a small house, 20 certified beds, under nonprofit ownership, and the staffing numbers are where it separates itself. At 4.70 nurse hours per resident day, it sits roughly 22 percent above the national average, and turnover of 24 percent is nearly half the national rate, which matters because consistent caregivers know the residents. Weekend coverage dips about 9 percent below weekday levels, so ask how that plays out on a Sunday. The inspection record shows 8 deficiencies with none at the harm level and none abuse-related, and the most recent survey dates to October 2023, so the picture is recent.

The Wartburg Home runs on 4.64 nursing hours per resident day, roughly a fifth more than the national average, and its staff turnover of 13.8% is far below the typical 45.8%, a sign that caregivers tend to stay, which matters for residents who need consistent faces. Inspections turned up 14 deficiencies, but none involved harm or jeopardy, and none were abuse-related, with the most recent review completed in July 2025. Weekend staffing dips about 14% below its own weekday level, so ask how that plays out on Saturdays and Sundays. The quality measure rating sits at the top of the scale, while the health inspection rating is middling, worth reading the actual inspection reports rather than trusting either number alone.

The Steven and Alexandra Cohen Pediatric LTC Pavilion in Valhalla runs 8.34 nurse hours per resident day, more than double the national average of 3.86, and that staffing holds up reasonably on weekends, dipping only about 9% from weekday levels. Staff turnover sits at 20.4% against a national 45.8%, so the people caring for these 24 residents tend to stay. Inspections back it up: two deficiencies on record, none involving harm or abuse, and the most recent survey was in August 2024. As a nonprofit with a five-star inspection and quality record, this is about as steady as a small pediatric skilled nursing setting gets.

Bethel Nursing Home Company in Ossining is a small nonprofit, 43 certified beds, and the numbers tell a story with real strengths and real caveats. Nurse staffing runs about 3.53 hours per resident day, roughly 9% under the national average, though its 25% annual turnover is well below the 45.8% national figure, which matters for whether you see the same faces week to week. The inspection record is the weak spot: 22 deficiencies, two tied to abuse, and a two-star health inspection rating, though none reached harm or jeopardy level and the most recent inspection was in March 2025. Ask specifically about those abuse-related citations and how weekend coverage holds up.

United Hebrew runs 4.06 nurse hours per resident day, roughly 5% above the national average, though weekends dip about 6% below its own weekday staffing. The standout number is turnover: 18.3% against a national average near 46%, which matters because consistent caregivers know the residents. Inspections in October 2023 turned up 10 deficiencies, none at the level of actual harm, but two tied to abuse, worth asking about directly. The four- and five-star federal ratings on health inspections, quality measures, and staffing all point the same direction, and nonprofit ownership tends to mean the margin goes back into the building rather than to investors.

King Street Home runs a lean, well-staffed operation on paper: 5.06 nurse hours per resident day, roughly a third more than the national average, and weekend coverage barely dips from weekday levels. Turnover sits at 48%, a bit above the national figure, which matters for how consistently residents see the same caregivers. The health inspection record is the weak spot, 30 deficiencies, one tied to abuse, though none rose to harm or jeopardy level, and the most recent survey was in January 2024. Quality measures and staffing both score well; state inspectors have been less impressed. For-profit corporate ownership. Ask about that abuse citation and how the 48% turnover plays out on the floor.

Andrus On Hudson sits in Hastings On Hudson with 197 certified beds under corporate for-profit ownership. The staffing story is mixed: 3.42 nurse hours per resident day runs about 11% under the national average of 3.86, and weekends dip roughly 8% below the home's own weekday levels, so coverage thins out when families tend to visit. What stands out is retention: 25.4% annual turnover against a national 45.8% means aides and nurses largely stay, which matters for familiarity and consistency of care. On inspections, 17 deficiencies with none at harm or jeopardy level and one abuse-related finding, last surveyed March 2023. Quality measures score well. The trade-off is real: steady staff, thinner hours.

Springvale runs 200 beds in Croton On Hudson, under for-profit LLC ownership, and the numbers pull in different directions. Nurse staffing sits at 3.56 hours per resident day, about 8% under the national average, and weekends drop roughly 13% below the home's own weekday levels, so the thinnest coverage lands when families tend to visit. Turnover is the brighter spot: 26.9% against a national 45.8%, which suggests aides and nurses are staying. The inspection record is the caution flag: 39 deficiencies on file, six tied to abuse, and the most recent visit was August 2025. None of those deficiencies rose to harm or jeopardy, but 39 is a lot to carry.

St Cabrini runs a fairly tight ship on the staffing side. The 304-bed nonprofit in Dobbs Ferry pays for 3.71 nurse hours per resident per day, about 4% under the national figure of 3.86, and weekend coverage dips roughly 9% below its own weekdays, so ask how that gap gets handled. What stands out is retention: 20.8% turnover against a national average near 46%, which suggests a stable, familiar crew. The tradeoffs are 21 deficiencies on record, including one abuse-related finding and none at harm or jeopardy, plus a May 2023 inspection that's now well over a year old. Worth reading the abuse citation closely.

Bayberry runs on 4.00 nurse hours per resident day, a bit above the 3.86 national average, and its staff turnover of 35.2% sits well under the 45.8% national figure, a sign people tend to stay. The catch is weekends, when coverage drops roughly 11% below the weekday level. Its current record shows seven deficiencies, none at the harm level and none abuse-related, and the last inspection was July 2025. With 60 beds under for-profit partnership ownership, this is a small home whose staffing and inspection numbers hold up reasonably well, though the weekend dip is worth asking about directly.

Sky View runs 192 certified beds in Croton-on-Hudson, and its nurse staffing sits at 3.03 hours per resident per day, roughly 22% under the national average of 3.86. Weekends dip about 9% below the home's own weekday coverage, so the thinnest shifts land when families tend to visit. Turnover is the bright spot: 25% against a national 45.8%, meaning the aides and nurses you meet are more likely to still be there next year. The current inspection record shows 12 deficiencies, one serious enough to reach harm or jeopardy level, with no abuse citations; the most recent survey was March 3, 2026. Quality measures score well, but low staffing hours and that harm-level finding are what pull the overall picture down.

Sprain Brook Manor runs on more nursing hours than most homes, 4.36 per resident day against a national average of 3.86, and its staff tends to stay, with turnover at 24% versus roughly 46% nationally. Weekend coverage does dip about 16% below weekday levels, so ask how that plays out on a Saturday. The inspection record shows nine deficiencies, none at the harm level and none abuse-related, with the last state visit in May 2024; staffing and quality measures both sit at four stars out of five. It's a for-profit partnership, which is worth knowing when you're comparing it to nonprofit options nearby.

Adira At Riverside runs 4.24 nurse hours per resident day, roughly 10% above the national average, and its staff turnover of 25% is well below the 45.8% norm, a sign people tend to stay. The catch is the inspection record. Twenty-four deficiencies, two of them serious enough to put residents at risk of harm, drew a single $66,859 fine and a one-star health inspection rating. Quality measures score 5/5, but weekend staffing drops about 16% below weekdays, so care thins out exactly when families visit. Good staffing and low turnover, real trouble on inspections, worth asking what those two harm-level citations involved before deciding.

Cedar Manor runs about 3.20 nurse hours per resident each day, and that's roughly 17% under the national average of 3.86, the kind of gap families notice most on weekends, when staffing dips another 8% below the home's own weekday levels. A 37% annual turnover rate actually sits below the national figure of 45.8%, so the staff who are there tend to stay. The state's most recent inspection, in April 2025, left 31 deficiencies on record, including three tied to abuse; none rose to actual harm or jeopardy. With a for-profit limited liability company at the helm, the numbers suggest a home that's adequately but thinly staffed.

Glen Island Center runs 183 certified beds in New Rochelle under corporate for-profit ownership, and its nurse staffing sits at 3.21 hours per resident day, about 17% under the national average of 3.86. Weekends dip roughly 6% below the home's own weekday coverage, so the thinnest shifts land when families tend to visit. Staff turnover of 40.1% is actually a bit better than the 45.8% national figure, which matters for continuity of care. Against that, the inspection record shows 19 deficiencies, one serious enough to reach harm or jeopardy level, though none involve abuse, and one fine of $36,299. The most recent inspection was February 5, 2026.

Schaffer Extended Care Center runs about 3.05 nurse hours per resident each day, roughly a fifth below the national average, and weekend coverage drops further below its own weekday levels. Staff turnover sits at 97.8%, more than double the national figure, so the people around your family member are likely to change often. Its record carries 25 deficiencies, including one tied to abuse and one at the harm level, plus a fine, and the last inspection was in May 2025. All three CMS star ratings, inspections, quality measures, staffing, sit at the lowest possible.
