Parker At Somerset runs on 6.07 nurse hours per resident per day, which is roughly 57% above the national average of 3.86. Weekend coverage dips about 5% below its own weekday level, but that's a small gap compared to most homes. Staff turnover sits at 17.7% against a national average of 45.8%, meaning the people caring for residents tend to stick around, and the five deficiencies on record include nothing at the harm or jeopardy level and nothing abuse-related. The last inspection was in April 2025, so the picture is recent, and as a nonprofit it isn't answering to shareholders.

Applewood Village is small, 60 beds, and it runs on a nonprofit model, which often shows up in the numbers. Nurse staffing sits at 5.73 hours per resident day, roughly 48% above the national average, and weekend coverage dips only about 6% below weekday levels, so the care doesn't thin out much on Saturdays and Sundays. Annual turnover is 22.8%, about half the national rate of 45.8%, meaning the people caring for residents tend to stay. On the inspection side, two deficiencies on record, neither at the harm level and none abuse-related, with the most recent inspection dated March 2026. All three CMS star categories, health inspections, quality measures, and staffing, come in at five out of five.

Cheshire Home runs 35 certified beds in Florham Park under nonprofit ownership, and the staffing number is the first thing that stands out: 7.73 nurse hours per resident day, roughly double the national average. Weekend coverage dips about 10% below its own weekday level, which is worth asking about, but the base is high enough that even the dip stays well above typical. Staff turnover sits at 28.1%, meaningfully below the 45.8% national figure, so the people caring for residents tend to stick around. Fifteen deficiencies appear on the current record with none at the harm level, though two are abuse-related and worth reading directly. Morris County families comparing options should note the inspection was recent, January 2026.

Childrens Specialized Hospital Toms River runs 26 certified beds in Ocean County as a nonprofit, and its nurse staffing sits at 6.72 hours per resident day, roughly 74% above the national average of 3.86. Weekend coverage dips about 8% below its own weekday level, but with a base that high, even the lighter days stay well-staffed.

Its inspection record shows 7 deficiencies, none tied to harm, jeopardy, or abuse, and the most recent visit was September 2024. The quality and staffing star ratings are both perfect fives.

Lions Gate runs on a nonprofit model with 110 certified beds in Voorhees, and the staffing numbers are the first thing that stands out: 5.61 nurse hours per resident day, roughly 45% above the national average. That level holds up reasonably well on weekends too, dipping only about 6% below its own weekday pace. Staff turnover sits at 34.5%, which is meaningfully below the national rate of 45.8%, people tend to stay. The tradeoff shows up in inspections: 14 deficiencies on record, none at the harm or jeopardy level, but one abuse-related citation, with the most recent inspection in February 2025.

Turnover sits at 37.9 percent against a national 45.8, so more of the same caregivers tend to stay. Inspectors found 11 deficiencies, none causing harm or involving abuse, and the last visit was recent, in September 2025. With 30 beds and nonprofit ownership, the numbers point to a home that is well staffed and currently in good standing rather than one coasting on reputation.

Continuing Care At Seabrook runs on about 5.1 nurse hours per resident day, roughly a third more staffing than the national average, and its staff turnover of 16.9% is well under the 45.8% national figure, that kind of retention usually means residents see the same faces. Weekend coverage dips about 11% below its own weekday level, worth asking about if your family visits on Saturdays or Sundays. The home is nonprofit-owned, holds a five-star inspection rating with six deficiencies on record, none involving harm or abuse, and its last inspection was in September 2024.

Weekend coverage dips about 12% below its own weekday pace, which is worth asking about if your family visits mainly on Saturdays and Sundays.

Weekend coverage dips about 11 percent below its own weekday levels, though at that baseline even the thinner shifts are well staffed. Staff turnover sits at 12.7 percent against a national average of 45.8 percent, which suggests people stay.

Wiley Mission is run by a church-affiliated nonprofit, and the numbers show a home that spends heavily on people. At 5.89 nurse hours per resident day, it beats the national average by more than half, and weekend staffing dips only about 10% below its own weekday level, a smaller drop than many homes see. Turnover sits at 25.7%, well under the national 45.8%. The tradeoffs are on the record: 19 deficiencies, two tied to abuse, though none reached harm or jeopardy. Its last inspection was in September 2024, and its health and quality ratings sit mid-range at three stars each.

The Jewish Home at Rockleigh runs on unusually deep staffing for a 196-bed nonprofit: five hours of nursing care per resident per day, roughly 29% more than the national average, and that shows up in the top staffing rating. Just as telling is the 21.4% turnover rate, less than half the national figure, which suggests a workforce that mostly sticks around. Weekends dip about 9% below weekday coverage, and the record shows 22 deficiencies, one tied to abuse, though none rose to harm or jeopardy. Its most recent inspection came in July 2025, so the picture is current. Strong care numbers, some paperwork problems.

Atrium at Navesink Harbor is a small nonprofit home in Red Bank, and its numbers pull in two directions. Nurse staffing runs about 4.91 hours per resident day, roughly 27 percent above the national average, and turnover at 38.3 percent sits below the national 45.8 percent, a sign people tend to stay. Weekend staffing dips about 9 percent from weekday levels, which is common but worth asking about. The harder question is the inspection record: 32 deficiencies, one at the harm or jeopardy level and three abuse-related, with a one-star health inspection rating from CMS. That's a lot for 43 beds. Staffing is clearly the strength here; the survey history is the part a family should ask about directly.

McAuley Hall runs on more nursing hours than most homes in the country, about 4.14 per resident day against a national average near 3.86, and its staff tends to stay, with turnover at 27.5% compared to roughly 46% nationally.

Weekend coverage dips about 4% below weekday levels, which is worth asking about. State inspectors were last in during August 2025, and the home scores 4 out of 5 on health inspections, quality measures, and staffing alike.

Six deficiencies show on the current record, none at harm or jeopardy level and none abuse-related, with the most recent inspection closed out at the end of 2024. For a small nonprofit home of 32 beds in Monmouth County, that combination of steady staffing and clean inspections is doing most of the work here.

United Methodist Communities At Pitman runs on 4.15 nurse hours per resident day, about 8% above the national average, and its staff turnover of 38.8% sits below the national 45.8%, both signs of a stable floor.

Inspections are current as of January 2026 and turned up 6 deficiencies, one at the harm level, with a single fine of $12,735 and nothing abuse-related. For a 72-bed nonprofit, that's a thin record.

Christian Health Care Center runs 304 beds as a church-affiliated nonprofit, and its staffing sits just above the national average at 3.92 nurse hours per resident day.

The current record shows 35 deficiencies, none at harm or jeopardy level and none abuse-related, with the most recent inspection in February 2026. CMS rates quality measures 5 out of 5 and staffing 4 out of 5, but health inspections only 2 out of 5, worth asking about during a visit.

The inspection record is clean where it counts: six deficiencies total, none at the harm or jeopardy level, none abuse-related, with the most recent survey in late 2025. For 60 beds under nonprofit ownership, the numbers point to consistent care rather than occasional good days.
