Taconic Rehabilitation and Nursing at Ulster runs 120 certified beds in Highland under individual for-profit ownership. Its 4.11 nurse staffing hours per resident day sit roughly 7% above the national average of 3.86, though weekends slip about 12% below the home's own weekday levels, so the coverage families see on a Saturday may look thinner than the weekday average suggests. Staff turnover lands at 44.8%, close to the national 45.8%. The current inspection record shows 14 deficiencies, one serious enough to reach harm or jeopardy level, with no abuse citations and a single fine of $12,948. The most recent inspection was March 12, 2025, so the picture is current.

Regeis Care Center, a 236-bed for-profit home in the Bronx, holds up well on inspections and quality measures, both rated 4 out of 5, and its 2025 inspection is recent. Staff turnover sits at 26.7%, notably better than the 45.8% national average, which matters for residents who value consistent caregivers. The catch is daily staffing itself: 3.56 nurse hours per resident, about 8% under the national average, with weekends roughly 17% lighter than weekdays. Twenty deficiencies are on record, including one at the harm level and three tied to abuse. Those are the findings behind the middling overall picture, decent oversight, thinner coverage, and some serious citations worth asking about directly.

Schervier runs 366 beds in the Bronx under for-profit LLC ownership, and the numbers pull in different directions. Nurse staffing sits at 2.90 hours per resident day, roughly a quarter below the national average of 3.86, with weekends about 8% thinner than weekdays. Quality measures score well, but the staffing rating and 33 deficiencies on the current record, four tied to abuse, say more about daily experience than the five-star quality score does. Turnover at 42.6% is slightly better than the national 45.8%, and none of those deficiencies hit harm or jeopardy level. The last inspection was March 2025, so the record is recent.

The Commons on St. Anthony runs about 3.07 nurse hours per resident day against a national average of 3.86, roughly a fifth less hands-on time than the typical home. That thin staffing shows up on weekends too, dropping another 8% below its own weekday level, and CMS rates staffing 2 out of 5. Turnover sits at 40.4%, a bit better than the national 45.8%, but the inspection record is the real weight here: 24 deficiencies, one serious enough to reach harm or jeopardy level, one tied to abuse, a $8,512 fine, and a 2/5 inspection rating from a visit in November 2024. The 5/5 quality measures look strong, but those come from self-reported data, the state surveyor findings tell a different story.

Sullivan County runs this 146-bed home in Liberty, and the numbers split in two directions. Nurse staffing sits at 4.11 hours per resident day, about 6% above the national average, but weekends run roughly 9% thinner than weekdays, and annual turnover of 64.4% is well above the 45.8% national figure, so the coverage on paper isn't the same as consistency at the bedside. The inspection record is the heavier problem: 42 deficiencies, four at harm or jeopardy level, nine tied to abuse, with the last inspection in September 2024. A single $9,620 fine understates that pattern, since most deficiencies don't carry a penalty. Quality measures score well; the survey history is what pulls this home down.

Elcor runs 305 beds in Horseheads, and the staffing numbers are the first thing to look at. At 3.43 nurse hours per resident day, it sits about 11% below the national average, and weekends drop roughly 16% below its own weekday level, so coverage is thinnest exactly when families tend to visit. Turnover at 44.3% is essentially at the national rate. The inspection record shows 25 deficiencies, none flagged at harm or jeopardy level, with one abuse-related finding. That last inspection was in December 2023, so it's been a while. For-profit, limited liability ownership.

St Marys Hospital For Children is a 124-bed nonprofit home in Bayside, and its federal stars look strong on paper: four out of five on health inspections, a perfect five on quality measures. But the current record carries 10 deficiencies, and four of those are abuse-related, with one serious enough to reach harm or jeopardy. That combination is what holds the home's overall picture down despite the inspection stars. One fine totaling $26,130 has been levied, which suggests regulators found something worth penalizing, not just paperwork gaps. The last inspection was February 2025, so this is recent information, not an old blemish. For a nonprofit that runs a pediatric-focused operation, the abuse citations are the part to ask about directly.

Beach Terrace runs 2.97 nurse staffing hours per resident day, about a quarter below the national average of 3.86, and weekends drop roughly another 14% under its own weekday level, so coverage is thinnest exactly when families tend to visit. Turnover is the bright spot: 19.3% against a national 45.8% means aides and nurses largely stay, which matters for consistency of care. The inspection record shows 17 deficiencies, none at harm or jeopardy level, though three are abuse-related and worth asking about directly. State surveyors were last in on January 28, 2026, so the picture is current. For-profit corporate ownership, 182 beds.

Silver Lake runs on a for-profit LLC structure with 278 beds, and its nurse staffing sits at 4.09 hours per resident day, roughly 6% above the national average. Turnover is where it separates from the pack: 25.8% against a national 45.8%, meaning far fewer caregivers are walking out the door each year, though weekend coverage dips about 8% below its own weekday levels. The trouble shows up in its record. Seventeen deficiencies, including one at the harm level and three tied to abuse, with a 2/5 on health inspections and 2/5 on quality measures. The last inspection was December 2023. Good retention and decent hours don't cancel out what inspectors found.

Caton Park runs lean on nursing hours, 2.71 per resident day against a national average of 3.86, roughly a third less hands-on care than the typical home. Weekends dip even further, about 10% below the home's own weekday coverage, so a Saturday afternoon is when your family member is most likely to wait. What partly offsets that is stability: turnover sits at 18.7%, well under the national 45.8%, meaning the aides and nurses who are there tend to stay. Inspections look solid, a 4-star health inspection rating, 15 deficiencies with none at harm level, though two abuse-related citations are worth asking about directly. Last inspected August 2024.

Mountainside Residential Care Center runs 82 beds as a nonprofit in Margaretville, and its nurse staffing sits at 3.70 hours per resident day, about 4% under the national average, with weekends roughly 5% thinner than weekdays. The bigger concern is turnover: 90.8% of staff left over the past year, double the national rate of 45.8%, which means the people caring for residents are, more often than not, new to the building. Its inspection record shows 14 deficiencies, including one at the harm level and three tied to abuse, plus a single fine of $8,512; the most recent inspection was July 2024. Quality measures score well, but stable staffing is what families should ask about directly.

The Pearl Nursing Center of Rochester runs on 3.04 nurse staffing hours per resident day, about a fifth below the national average of 3.86, and weekends drop roughly 11 percent below its own weekday level, so the thinnest coverage lands when families tend to visit. Staff turnover sits at 51.5 percent against a 45.8 percent national figure, which means more than half the nursing staff turns over annually. Its record shows 40 deficiencies, including two tied to abuse, with the most recent inspection in June 2024; the low inspection and staffing ratings reflect that history, even though the quality measure rating is strong.

Concord runs a nonprofit shop in Brooklyn with 140 beds, and the numbers tell a mixed story. Nurse staffing sits at 3.29 hours per resident day, roughly 15 percent under the national average, and weekends drop about 9 percent below its own weekday coverage, that's the kind of gap families notice when a Saturday problem comes up. Turnover is 38.2 percent, actually better than the 45.8 percent national figure, so the people who stay tend to stay. But the inspection record carries 23 deficiencies, two tied to abuse, and the health inspection rating sits at 2 stars. The quality measures look stronger at 4 stars; the staffing and inspection side is where the concern lives.

Fairport Rehabilitation and Nursing Center runs 196 beds under for-profit LLC ownership, and its staffing numbers are the first thing worth noticing. At 3.64 nurse hours per resident day, it sits about 6% under the national average, and weekends drop roughly 9% below its own weekday levels, so coverage thins out exactly when families tend to visit. Annual turnover of 66.2% is well above the 45.8% national figure, which means caregivers cycle through quickly. The current inspection record shows 27 deficiencies, four of them abuse-related, though none rose to harm or jeopardy level. Inspectors were last in on May 13, 2025. Its quality measure score is strong; the staffing and inspection scores are not.

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.

Fort Hudson runs about 3.40 nurse hours per resident per day, roughly 12% under the national average, and weekends drop another 16% below its own weekday staffing. That thin coverage is the main reason its staffing rating sits at 1 out of 5, even though its quality measures score 4 out of 5 and inspectors found no harm-level or abuse-related deficiencies among the 14 on record. The most recent inspection was December 2024, so the picture is current. This is a nonprofit with solid clinical outcomes but a real staffing gap, especially on weekends, worth asking how they cover callouts and whether weekend nurse coverage matches what you'd see on a Tuesday.

Nathan Littauer Hospital Nursing Home runs 84 certified beds as a nonprofit, and its staffing sits just a hair under the national average, 3.83 hours per resident day against 3.86. That's close enough to call even, but the weekend tells a different story: staffing drops about 14% below its own weekday level, so care on Saturdays and Sundays may not match what you see Monday through Friday. The bigger flag is the inspection record. Twenty-five deficiencies, including two tied to abuse, with a one-star health inspection rating from CMS. None of those rose to the harm or jeopardy level, and the most recent inspection was in February 2025, so the picture is current. Annual turnover of 50% runs above the national 45.8%, meaning the staff your relative sees may not be there next year.

Woodbury Heights is a 606-bed for-profit home in Nassau County, and the numbers families should weigh most are the inspection ones. Its current record carries 46 deficiencies, including four at the harm or immediate jeopardy level and four tied to abuse, and it's been fined twice, totaling $280,271. Nurse staffing sits at 3.49 hours per resident day, roughly 10% under the national average, with weekends running about 5% lighter than weekdays. Turnover, at 44.7%, is essentially average. The quality measure score looks strong, but that's self-reported data, and it doesn't offset a 1-out-of-5 inspection rating from the most recent survey in October 2024.

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.

Bethany Nursing Home in Horseheads runs about 3.53 nursing hours per resident day, roughly 8% under the national average, and weekends drop another 12% below its own weekday levels. Staff turnover sits at 48.7%, a few points above the national figure. The inspection record is the strong part: a five-star health inspection rating, seven deficiencies total, none at harm or jeopardy level and none abuse-related, with the most recent survey in March 2025. Where it slips is quality measures, which come in at one star. So you're looking at a home that passes its surveys cleanly and staffs thinner than average, with clinical quality metrics that raise more questions than the inspection history does.
