Staff turnover
33%

The Jewish Home of Rochester runs 362 certified beds as a nonprofit, and its nurse staffing sits at 4.80 hours per resident day, roughly a quarter above the national figure of 3.86. That said, weekends dip about 13% below its own weekday coverage, so the care your family member gets on a Saturday won't match a Tuesday. Staff turnover is 32.8%, well under the national 45.8%, which means aides and nurses tend to stick around. On inspections, seven deficiencies appear on the current record, three tied to abuse and none reaching harm or jeopardy level. The most recent inspection closed in December 2025, so the picture is current.

The numbers that stand out at Maplewood are on the staffing side: 6.07 nurse hours per resident per day, roughly 57% above the national average of 3.86. That's a lot of hands on deck, and it shows in the weekend data too, weekend coverage dips about 9% below weekdays, but from a high baseline, so it never falls to the thin levels common elsewhere. Turnover sits at 42.9%, a bit better than the 45.8% national figure. Trustees can look at the inspection record with some confidence: eight deficiencies on file, none at harm or jeopardy level, none abuse-related, and the most recent survey was May 2025. The corporation running it has kept the place clean on paper.

Park Ridge runs on more nursing hours than most homes in the country, 4.36 per resident day against a national average of 3.86, and that staff shows up with less churn than typical, with turnover at 41.9% versus 45.8% nationally. Weekend coverage dips about 14% below weekday levels, which is common but worth knowing if your visits fall on Saturdays or Sundays. The inspection record shows 17 deficiencies, none at the harm or jeopardy level and none tied to abuse, and the last full inspection came in April 2024. As a nonprofit, this is a home where the numbers mostly hold up.

Edna Tina Wilson Living Center is a 120-bed nonprofit in Rochester, and its inspection record is the strongest thing about it: five deficiencies on file, none at the harm level, none abuse-related, and its most recent inspection was in April 2025. Nurse staffing sits at 3.87 hours per resident day, essentially identical to the national average of 3.86, though weekends run about 13 percent thinner than weekdays, a dip worth asking about if your family visits mainly on Saturdays and Sundays. Staff turnover is 37.1 percent against a national average of 45.8 percent, which suggests people tend to stay. On the federal star ratings, inspections and quality measures both come in at the top.

The Church Home in Rochester runs on more nursing hours than most places, 4.23 per resident day against a national average of 3.86, and its staff tends to stay, with turnover at 38.8% versus 45.8% nationally. Both matter, because consistent caregivers know the residents. Weekend coverage does dip about 9% below weekday levels, so ask how that plays out on Saturdays and Sundays. Inspectors cited 12 deficiencies on the current record, none at the harm level, but three tied to abuse, which is worth asking about directly. The last inspection was in January 2024, so the record is reasonably current. As a nonprofit, it answers to a board rather than shareholders.

The Friendly Home runs 4.34 nurse staffing hours per resident day, about 12 percent above the national average, and weekend coverage dips roughly 14 percent below its own weekday levels. Staff turnover sits right at the national figure, 45.4 percent against 45.8. On its current record are 18 deficiencies, none flagged at the harm or jeopardy level, though two are abuse-related, worth asking about directly. Its last inspection came in December 2025, so the picture is recent. Quality measure scores are strong; health inspection scores are middling. This is a nonprofit with 200 beds that invests in staffing and generally delivers, but the abuse citations and weekend drop-off are the two things I'd want answered before deciding.

Unity Living Center runs on 120 certified beds in Rochester under nonprofit ownership, and its staffing numbers are genuinely better than most: 4.08 nurse hours per resident day against a national average of 3.86, with a 29.4% turnover rate that sits well under the 45.8% national figure. But weekends run about 10% leaner than weekdays, so care can thin out when families visit. The bigger issue is inspections, a 2/5 health inspection rating, 11 deficiencies with one at the harm level, and a $12,868 fine, all from a survey completed in July 2024. Strong quality scores and staffing don't erase a recent citation that put a resident in jeopardy.

Staff turnover

St. Ann's Community runs a tight ship on staffing. At 4.18 nurse hours per resident day, it sits about 8% above the national average, and weekend coverage dips only modestly below weekdays. Turnover lands at 37.5%, well under the 45.8% national figure, which matters because stable staff tend to know residents' routines. The home's 11 deficiencies include two abuse-related citations, though none rose to harm or jeopardy level, and its last inspection was recent. As a nonprofit, it isn't answering to shareholders. The numbers point to steady care rather than crisis management, worth weighing against those two abuse citations when you visit.

Penfield Place runs a tight ship on the clinical side, its last inspection was in January 2025, and nine deficiencies on record with none at the harm level is a good place to be. That abuse-related citation is the one blemish worth asking about directly. Nurse staffing sits at 4.49 hours per resident day, about 16 percent above the national average, though weekends dip roughly 14 percent below its own weekday levels, so coverage isn't perfectly even. Staff turnover at 51 percent runs above the 45.8 percent national figure, which matters for continuity when you're talking about 48 beds and a for-profit individual owner. Good inspection and quality numbers; the questions here are about consistency and retention.

St. Ann's Community runs 470 beds in Rochester, and the staffing picture is solid: 3.98 nurse hours per resident day, a bit above the national average, with turnover at 38.9% against a national 45.8%, keeping more of your caregivers matters, and this home does better than most. Weekends dip about 10% below weekday coverage, worth asking about if your family visits then. The record isn't clean: 13 deficiencies, including one at the harm level and two abuse-related, plus $55,495 in fines across two events. A 4/5 on health inspections from April 2024 suggests those issues aren't the whole story, but read the abuse citations yourself before deciding.

The Highlands At Brighton runs on a nonprofit model with 145 certified beds, and staffing is where it stands out: 5.15 nurse hours per resident day, roughly a third more than the national average of 3.86. That extra coverage isn't evenly spread, though, weekends run about 16% leaner than weekdays, and annual turnover sits at 47.3%, slightly above the national 45.8%, so the faces change fairly often. The current inspection record shows 25 deficiencies, none at the harm or jeopardy level, but three tied to abuse. Inspectors were last in on August 13, 2025, and the home scored 3 out of 5 on both health inspections and quality measures, with a 4 on staffing.

Aaron Manor runs about 3.63 nurse hours per resident per day, roughly 6% under the national average, and weekend coverage drops about 15% below its own weekday level, so the hours thin out exactly when families tend to visit. Staff turnover sits at 58.5% against a national 45.8%, meaning more than half the nursing staff left within a year. The good news is real: a 4-star health inspection rating, a 5-star quality measure rating, and 14 deficiencies on record with none at the harm level and nothing abuse-related, last inspected in October 2024. For-profit LLC ownership with 140 beds. Solid care quality on paper, but the staffing pattern is where I'd focus your questions.

St. John's runs 4.24 nursing hours per resident day, roughly 10% above the national average, and its staffing and quality-measure ratings both come in at 4 out of 5. That's the good part. The health inspection record is where it falls apart: a 1 out of 5, with 30 deficiencies on file, three of them at the harm or jeopardy level and three tied to abuse. Two fines totaling $141,034 sit on the record, and the most recent inspection was June 9, 2025. Staff turnover is 46.8%, essentially the national average, and weekend coverage drops about 10% below weekday levels, so the hours look strong on paper, but consistency and safety are the real questions here.

Wedgewood runs 29 beds in Spencerport, and its nurse staffing sits at 3.74 hours per resident day, a bit under the national average of 3.86. That gap looks small, but weekends here drop roughly 14% below the home's own weekday coverage, so the thinnest shifts are the ones families tend to visit. Staff turnover is 48.5%, above the national 45.8%, meaning nearly half the nursing team turns over in a year. The health inspection record carries 13 deficiencies, none at harm or jeopardy level and none abuse-related, with the most recent inspection in March 2024. Quality measures score well; the inspection side is where the record is weakest.

Hamilton Manor runs a tight ship on inspections, nine deficiencies on record, none rising to harm or jeopardy, and the state was last in the building in June 2025. But look at the day-to-day numbers and a different picture shows up. Nurse staffing sits at 3.38 hours per resident day, roughly 12% under the national average, and weekends drop about 10% below the home's own weekday levels. With 51.2% annual turnover, that thin coverage gets harder to hold steady. This is a for-profit corporate home with 40 beds, so there's less slack when someone calls out. The inspection record says the place is run carefully; the staffing data says it's running lean.

The Hurlbut runs a 160-bed for-profit home in Rochester, and its nurse staffing sits at 3.34 hours per resident day, roughly 14 percent under the national average. Weekends thin out further, running about 20 percent below its own weekday coverage, so the hours when families tend to visit are also the hours with the fewest nurses on the floor. Staff turnover is 51.2 percent against a national 45.8, meaning more than half the nursing staff turns over each year. Its record shows 13 deficiencies, none at the harm level, one tied to abuse, with the last inspection on July 31, 2025.

Woodside Manor is a small for-profit home in Rochester, 44 beds, individually owned, and it was inspected recently, in August 2025, with no deficiencies at the harm or jeopardy level and nothing abuse-related on its record. The staffing number looks fine at first glance, but it's essentially dead even with the national average, and the real trouble is underneath: more than six in ten staff left over the past year, well above the 45.8% national rate, and weekend coverage drops roughly 13% below what the home staffs on weekdays. Fourteen deficiencies sit on the current record, none severe. Families should ask how the home keeps weekends covered when turnover is this high.

The Brightonian runs 54 beds in Rochester under corporate ownership, and its last inspection in February 2025 came back with a clean health inspection score. That's not nothing. But look at the rest: 18 deficiencies on the current record, three of them tied to abuse, none at the level that caused actual harm. Staffing sits at 3.95 hours per resident day, just slightly above the national average, yet weekends drop about 20% below the home's own weekday numbers, and annual turnover hits 62.5% against a national 45.8%. Workers are cycling through fast. The state came recently and found no harm-level problems, which matters. Whether the same holds next time depends on who's still on the floor.

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.

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.
