Careone At Oradell

Oradell, NJ · Bergen County

CMS 1/5154 bedsFor-profitMedicaid
Nurse hours
3.67 /day
Staff turnover
25%
Serious cites
0

Careone At Oradell runs 154 beds under for-profit LLC ownership, and its staff retention is a genuine bright spot, 24.8% turnover is nearly half the national rate, meaning aides and nurses tend to stay. Staffing hours, though, sit at 3.67 per resident day, about 5% under the national average, and weekends run roughly 13% thinner than weekdays, so coverage gets tight when families visit. The bigger concern is the inspection record: 33 deficiencies, one serious enough to reach harm or jeopardy level, and a $74,344 fine, all logged at the most recent survey in December 2024. Quality measures look strong on paper, but the survey history is where a family should focus its questions.

Atlas Rehabilitation and Healthcare at Maywood runs 120 certified beds under corporate, for-profit ownership, and its staffing sits at 3.50 nurse hours per resident day, roughly 9% under the national average of 3.86. Weekends dip about 7% below its own weekday coverage, which matters if your family visits or needs help on Saturdays and Sundays. Staff turnover is 42.2%, slightly better than the national 45.8%. The inspection record shows 18 deficiencies, none at the harm or jeopardy level and none abuse-related, with the most recent visit in August 2025. The quality measure score is strong; the staffing score is not. That split is the real story here, good clinical outcomes on paper, thinner hands-on coverage than average day to day.

Allendale Rehabilitation And Healthcare Center

Allendale Rehabilitation runs on thinner staffing than most homes, about 3.46 nurse hours per resident day against a national average near 3.86, and weekends drop roughly 14% below its own weekday coverage. Turnover sits at 44.3%, essentially in line with the national figure, so that's not the standout here. What is: 23 deficiencies on the current record, including three tied to abuse, though none rose to the level of actual harm or jeopardy. The health inspection rating is a middle-of-the-road 3, and the staffing rating is a 2. Its quality measure score is a 5, which means the clinical numbers families tend to worry about look better than the day-to-day coverage does. The last inspection was in November 2025.

At 196 beds in Hackensack, Complete Care At Prospect Heights runs on 3.09 nurse hours per resident day, roughly a fifth below the national average, and weekends dip about 15% below its own weekday staffing. Turnover sits at 45.9%, essentially tracking the national rate, so the issue isn't retention so much as how many hands are scheduled per shift. The inspection record is the harder part: 33 deficiencies, three of them at harm or jeopardy level and one abuse-related, plus six fines totaling $59,312, with the most recent inspection dated January 29, 2026. The 5/5 quality measure score comes largely from resident assessments, which can look strong even when the staffing and inspection stars don't.

Family Of Caring At Park Ridge is a 210-bed for-profit home in Bergen County, and the numbers split in two directions. The care side looks decent on paper, four out of five stars on CMS quality measures, but that's where the good news mostly stops. Nurse staffing runs 3.27 hours per resident day, roughly 15% under the national average, and it thins out further on weekends. Staff turnover sits at 52.7%, well above the 45.8% national figure, which means the people showing up to care for residents are often new to the building. Then there's the inspection record: 31 deficiencies, two serious enough to involve harm or jeopardy, and a $133,120 fine. The most recent inspection was January 2025, so this is current, not stale history. Worth asking hard questions before you decide.

Buckingham At Norwood runs 240 certified beds under for-profit LLC ownership, and its nurse staffing sits at 3.21 hours per resident day, roughly 17% under the national average of 3.86. Weekends dip about 7% below its own weekday coverage, so the thinnest shifts are also the least supervised. Turnover at 39.1% is actually better than the 45.8% national figure, which is worth noting, but it doesn't offset a record of 25 deficiencies, two at harm or jeopardy level, one abuse-related, plus a $76,226 fine. The most recent inspection was April 2026. CMS gives the place 2 of 5 stars for both health inspections and staffing.
