Hunt Nursing & Rehab Center is a 120-bed nonprofit in Danvers, and its inspection record is genuinely solid, a 4-out-of-5 health inspection rating, last survey in February 2026, with 21 deficiencies on file, only two of which rose to the harm level and none tied to abuse. Staffing sits just under the national average at 3.82 nurse hours per resident day, and weekends run about 10 percent thinner than weekdays, which is worth asking about if your family visits on Saturdays. Turnover at 41.2 percent actually beats the national 45.8 percent. The one fine on record, $10,517, is modest. What pulls the overall picture down is that quality measures rate only 3 out of 5, worth pressing on before you decide.

Brooksby Village runs a nonprofit operation in Peabody with 104 certified beds, and its biggest strength shows up in the nurse staffing numbers: 5.02 hours per resident day, roughly 30 percent above the national average of 3.86. That staffing cushion is real, though weekends dip about 9 percent below the home's own weekday level, so coverage isn't perfectly even across the week. The record has harder edges. Staff turnover sits at 50 percent, above the 45.8 percent national figure, and the current inspection history carries 17 deficiencies, including one at the harm or jeopardy level and three tied to abuse. Add a single fine of $167,099, and the picture is a well-staffed home with some serious compliance problems worth asking about directly.

Agawam West Rehab and Nursing runs 164 certified beds under for-profit LLC ownership, and its staffing sits at 3.59 nurse hours per resident day, about 7% under the national average of 3.86. Weekends dip roughly 15% below its own weekday coverage, which matters if your visits tend to fall on Saturdays or Sundays. The inspection record shows 31 deficiencies, one serious enough to reach harm or jeopardy level, with no abuse citations; the last survey was in September 2025. Turnover is the genuine bright spot at 31.6% against a national 45.8%, suggesting aides and nurses tend to stay. Quality measures score well even as the health inspection rating lags, so the day-to-day care may look steadier than the survey history implies.

Julian J Levitt Family Nursing Home runs 200 certified beds as a nonprofit corporation. Nurse staffing sits at 3.94 hours per resident day, modestly above the national average of 3.86, though weekends run about 8% thinner than weekdays. Staff turnover is 38.7%, better than the 45.8% national figure, which matters for continuity of care. The inspection record is where the picture gets more complicated: 21 deficiencies, two of them at the harm or jeopardy level, and one fine of $11,468. The most recent inspection was in May 2025, so the record is current rather than stale. Quality measures score well, staffing is average, and the health inspection side carries real weight, families should ask specifically about those two harm-level findings.

Bear Hill runs 169 beds under for-profit LLC ownership, and the staffing numbers are decent, 4.00 nurse hours per resident day, a bit above the national average. Weekend coverage dips about 8% below weekday levels, and turnover sits at 37.1%, which is actually better than the 45.8% national figure. Where it gets murkier is the inspection record: 27 deficiencies, including one at the harm level and one abuse-related, plus a $16,146 fine. The last inspection was January 2026, so the picture is current. Strong quality scores and recent oversight, but that harm-level finding is the kind of thing worth asking about directly before you decide.

East Longmeadow Skilled Nursing Center runs on more nursing hours than most homes, 4.22 per resident day against a national average of 3.86. That's a real margin, though weekends dip about 9% below its own weekday levels, so coverage isn't perfectly even across the week. The inspection record is solid: 30 deficiencies on file, none at the harm or jeopardy level, and the most recent state visit was in July 2025. One abuse-related citation is worth asking about directly. Staff turnover of 46.6% is essentially the national rate, which means this nonprofit isn't retaining caregivers any better than the typical facility.

Clifton Rehabilitation Nursing Center runs 4.29 nurse hours per resident day, roughly 11% above the national average, and its staff turnover of 36.3% sits well below the 45.8% national figure, both signs of a steadier workforce than most. The catch is weekends, when staffing drops about 16% below the home's own weekday level, so coverage isn't evenly spread across the week. Its 27 deficiencies include one abuse-related citation, though none rose to harm or jeopardy, and the most recent inspection was in May 2025. For-profit corporate ownership, 142 beds, and solid marks across inspections, quality measures, and staffing round out a picture of a home that's generally reliable but worth asking about on Saturdays and Sundays.

Alliance Health At West Acres runs on leaner nurse coverage than most homes, 3.69 hours per resident day against a national average of 3.86, and weekends dip roughly 10% below its own weekday numbers, which is worth asking about if your family visits mainly on Saturdays and Sundays. The stronger signals sit elsewhere: a 2025 inspection with no deficiencies at the harm or jeopardy level, and staff turnover at 32.4% compared with 45.8% nationally, meaning caregivers here tend to stay longer than is typical. One abuse-related deficiency does appear on the current record among 16 total. As a nonprofit with 138 beds, it's a mixed picture rather than a clear yes or no.

The Rehabilitation & Nursing Center At Everett runs 183 beds under for-profit LLC ownership, and its last health inspection came in August 2025, recent enough that the record reflects current conditions. Inspectors have logged 31 deficiencies, but none at the harm or jeopardy level and none related to abuse, which matters more than the raw count. Where the picture gets mixed is staffing: 3.45 nurse hours per resident day sits about 11% under the national average, and weekends dip roughly 8% below the home's own weekday levels. Turnover, though, is 22.1% against a national 45.8%, unusually stable for this industry. The low quality-measure rating is the piece worth asking about directly.

Care One At Randolph runs a 168-bed for-profit operation where the staffing numbers tell a mixed story. Nurses provide 3.56 hours per resident day, roughly 8% under the national average, and weekends dip about 8% below the home's own weekday levels, so coverage thins out exactly when families tend to visit. The stronger note is retention: 23.3% turnover sits well below the 45.8% national figure, suggesting a steadier workforce than many peers. The current inspection record is where the concern concentrates: 60 deficiencies, including one at the harm or jeopardy level and one abuse-related, against a one-star health inspection rating and a visit as recent as August 2025. Ownership is a limited liability company.

Alliance Health At Maples runs on about 4.45 nurse hours per resident day, roughly 15% above the national average, and its staff turnover of 28.5% sits well below the 45.8% national figure, both signs of a stable, reasonably well-staffed building. Weekend coverage dips about 8% from weekday levels, so ask how that plays out on a Saturday. The tradeoff shows up in its record: 21 deficiencies, including one at the harm level and one abuse-related, plus a $47,886 fine. A September 2025 inspection means the picture is current. As a nonprofit with steady staffing, this is a home where the care floor looks solid but the compliance history deserves your questions.

Vantage At Lowell runs 3.59 nurse hours per resident day, roughly 7 percent under the national average of 3.86, and weekends drop about 9 percent below its own weekday levels, so coverage thins out exactly when families tend to visit. Turnover is the brighter spot: 29.6 percent against a national 45.8 percent, meaning aides and nurses here tend to stay. The inspection record is the harder read. Fifty-two deficiencies, four at harm or jeopardy level, six tied to abuse, and a $13,497 fine, with the most recent look dated May 2025. This is a for-profit, individually owned home where staff retention is doing real work, but the survey history and thin weekend hours are what a family should ask about directly.

Shrewsbury Rehabilitation And Nursing At Southgate runs 99 certified beds under for-profit LLC ownership, and its numbers pull in two different directions. The home reports 4.15 total nurse staffing hours per resident day, about 7% above the national average of 3.86, but weekend staffing drops roughly 9% below its own weekday level, and annual turnover sits at 54.5% against a national average of 45.8%. On the clinical side, the CMS quality measure rating is 5 out of 5, though the staffing rating comes in at 2 out of 5. The current inspection record shows 17 deficiencies, one of them at the harm or jeopardy level, none abuse-related, with a single fine of $7,901 and a last inspection date of March 12, 2026.

Royal Wayland Rehabilitation And Nursing Center runs 40 certified beds in Wayland, and the people who inspect it clearly find little to fault, a five-star health inspection rating, with the most recent visit in May 2025 and 19 deficiencies on the current record, just one of them serious enough to involve harm or jeopardy, and no abuse findings. But the numbers on the floor tell a different story. Nurse staffing sits at 3.48 hours per resident day, roughly 10 percent below the national average, and it thins further on weekends. Annual turnover of 54.5 percent runs well above the 45.8 percent national figure, which makes it hard to hold onto consistent caregivers even where inspections look strong.

Alliance Health At Rosewood runs 3.36 nurse hours per resident day, about 13% under the national average, and weekends drop roughly 12% below its own weekday levels, so the leanest coverage lands when families tend to visit. Turnover sits at 40.7%, which is actually better than the 45.8% national figure. On the record: 25 deficiencies, including one at the harm level and one abuse-related citation, plus a single fine of $8,824. Its last inspection was January 23, 2026, so the picture is current. Nonprofit ownership under a corporation, 135 beds. The quality measure score is the strongest of its three ratings; staffing and inspections are middling.

Cedar View runs a 106-bed for-profit operation in Methuen, and the numbers tell a mixed story. The health inspection record is genuinely clean, nine deficiencies on file, none of them causing harm or involving abuse, and a survey as recent as January 2026. Quality measures also hold up well. Where it slips is staffing: 3.66 nurse hours per resident day sits about 5% under the national average, and weekends drop roughly 19% below the home's own weekday coverage, which is when families often notice less help on the floor. Turnover at 30.1% actually beats the 45.8% national figure, so the crew that's there tends to stay.

Linda Manor runs a nonprofit shop with 123 beds in Leeds, and the staffing numbers are the strongest part of the picture: 3.94 nurse hours per resident day, just ahead of the national average. That margin narrows on weekends, when coverage drops roughly 13% below what the home staffs during the week, worth asking about if your family visits Saturday or Sunday. Annual turnover sits at 52.4%, above the 45.8% national figure, so aides and nurses are cycling through faster than average. Inspections in September 2025 turned up 28 deficiencies, two serious enough to involve harm, plus one fine under $9,000.

Catholic Memorial Home runs 300 beds in Fall River under church-affiliated nonprofit ownership, and its nurse staffing sits at 4.28 hours per resident day, about 11% above the national average, while annual turnover of 29.6% lands well below the 45.8% national figure, meaning the people who work here tend to stay. Weekends dip roughly 5% below weekday coverage. Those are real strengths, and they're why the staffing rating comes in at 4 out of 5. But the inspection record is where the picture darkens: 42 deficiencies logged, five of them serious enough to involve harm or jeopardy, eight tied to abuse, and two fines totaling $94,419. State inspectors last visited in April 2025 for a reason.

Royal Norwell runs 86 beds under for-profit LLC ownership, and its nurse staffing sits at 3.68 hours per resident day, about 5% under the national average, with weekends roughly 10% thinner than its own weekdays. That gap matters because coverage is when families aren't watching. Staff turnover is 53.8% against a 45.8% national average, meaning more than half the nursing staff leaves each year, and the record shows 44 deficiencies, including 6 at harm or jeopardy level and 6 tied to abuse, plus two fines totaling $114,868. The last inspection was recent, November 2025, and the quality measure score runs higher than the inspection and staffing scores. Ask about weekend coverage and turnover directly.

Life Care Center of Auburn runs 154 certified beds under a for-profit limited liability company, and its nurse staffing sits at 3.83 hours per resident day, just under the national average of 3.86. Weekends drop roughly 16% below what the home staffs on weekdays, so coverage thins out exactly when families tend to visit. Turnover is the bright spot: 30.1% against a national 45.8%, meaning aides and nurses here stick around longer than at the typical home. The inspection record is the concern, 36 deficiencies, including two at the harm level and three tied to abuse, plus one fine of $29,738. The most recent inspection was June 2025, so that record is current.
