Nurse hours

Staff turnover

Heath Village runs a solid non-profit home in Hackettstown. The numbers that stand out most are the ones that don't match: nurse staffing sits at 4.72 hours per resident day, roughly 22% above the national average, yet annual turnover hits 97.2% against a national norm near 46%. That means the care hours are there, but the people delivering them are cycling through fast, weekend coverage also dips about 8% below weekday levels. On paper, inspections look clean: 11 deficiencies, none at harm or jeopardy level, none abuse-related, and the most recent survey was in March 2026. The quality measure rating sits at 3 out of 5, softer than staffing and inspection scores. If consistency of caregivers matters to your family, ask how they hold onto aides.

St Catherine Of Siena

Caldwell, NJ · Essex County

St Catherine of Siena runs small, 30 beds, and its nurses give residents 1.93 hours of care per resident day, roughly half the national figure of 3.86. That thin coverage is the weakest number here, and weekends drop a little further below the home's own weekday levels. What stands out in the other direction is retention: 10% annual turnover against a national average near 46%, meaning the people on shift tend to stay. Its inspection record shows 18 deficiencies, none involving harm or abuse, with four fines totaling $16,171 and a survey as recent as January 2025. The trade-off is real: stable, familiar staff, but not many of them per resident.

Meadowbrook Respiratory And Nursing Center

Staff turnover

Meadowbrook's quality measure score looks great on paper, but that top rating sits next to a one-star staffing score, and staffing is what actually shows up at the bedside. Twenty deficiencies on the current record, including one that caused harm and two tied to abuse, plus a $48,266 federal fine. That combination matters more than any single star. The inspection itself is recent, from May 2025, so this is a current picture, not an old one. Nonprofit ownership doesn't automatically mean better care here; the numbers say this home is short on staff relative to what residents need. If you're considering it, ask directly about nurse aide hours per resident per day and how they've addressed the abuse-related findings.

Windmere runs 57 certified beds as a nonprofit corporation, and its last inspection on March 3, 2026 turned up five deficiencies, none of them serious enough to cause harm or jeopardy, and no abuse findings at all. That's a clean record by any reasonable measure for a home this size. Federal inspectors rated it 4 out of 5 stars on health inspections, which lines up with what the deficiency counts show. Where it loses ground is staffing, which falls short of the national average and is what keeps the overall picture from being stronger. For a family weighing a small Passaic County home, the care environment here looks solid; the question is whether the staff-to-resident ratio gives you enough daily confidence.

Abuse icon on record

Cedar Crest/Mountainview Gardens runs on a nonprofit model with 113 certified beds, and its staffing numbers are genuinely strong, 4.18 nurse hours per resident day, roughly 8% above the national average, with weekend coverage dipping about 10% below its own weekday level. Turnover sits at 21.2%, less than half the national rate of 45.8%, which matters for continuity of care. The trouble is on the inspection side: 14 deficiencies on the current record, including 3 at the harm or jeopardy level and 1 abuse-related, plus $49,960 in fines across 3 penalties. A recent January 2026 inspection found a 2-out-of-5 health inspection rating, even as quality measures and staffing each earned 5 out of 5. Strong hands on deck, but a documented history of serious compliance problems.

Abuse icon on record

Masonic Village at Burlington runs on a contradiction. The nursing hours are genuinely high, 5.24 per resident day, roughly a third more than the national average, and CMS gives it top marks for staffing. But inspections tell a different story: 14 deficiencies on record, six of them serious enough to endanger residents, three tied to abuse, plus $178,446 in fines and a spot in the federal Special Focus Facility program, which CMS reserves for the worst-performing homes. Turnover sits at 46%, about even with the national rate, and weekend coverage drops roughly 11% below weekday levels. Quality scores look strong at 4 out of 5, but a home with three abuse citations and active federal monitoring has problems that staffing numbers alone don't fix.
