Excel Care At Manalapan runs on 2.94 nurse hours per resident day, roughly a quarter below the national average of 3.86, and weekend coverage drops about 10% below its own weekday level. Staff turnover sits at 50.6%, higher than the 45.8% national figure. The home's inspection record carries 45 deficiencies, four of them at the harm or jeopardy level, plus one fine of $63,238, and its most recent inspection was August 13, 2025. Resident outcome measures look strong by contrast, but the staffing and inspection numbers are where the real story sits.

Alaris Health at Hamilton Park runs 260 certified beds in Jersey City under individual for-profit ownership, and its inspection record is the strong part: 4 out of 5 stars, last survey in March 2025, and 18 deficiencies on file with none at the harm or jeopardy level. Two of those are abuse-related, which is worth asking about directly. Staffing is where it slips. At 3.64 nurse hours per resident day, it sits about 6% under the national average, weekend coverage drops roughly 10% below its own weekday level, and turnover hits 57.5% against a national 45.8%, meaning the people caring for your family member are, statistically, likely to be new or on their way out.

Complete Care At Arbors is a 120-bed for-profit in Toms River, and the numbers tell a mixed story. The clinical quality measures are excellent, a 5/5 star rating there, and the last inspection was recent, in March 2025, with 22 deficiencies on record but none rising to harm or jeopardy and nothing abuse-related. Where it slips is staffing: 3.17 nurse hours per resident day, roughly 18% under the national average, with weekends about 13% thinner than weekdays. Annual turnover sits at 49.5%, a few points above the national 45.8%. If your family member needs steady hands-on help, ask specifically how the floor is covered on Saturday and Sunday afternoons.

Manhattanview runs 127 certified beds in Union City under for-profit LLC ownership, and its numbers tell a fairly specific story. Nurse staffing sits at 3.37 hours per resident day, roughly 13% under the national average, and weekends dip about 9% below the home's own weekday coverage, so the thinnest shifts are the ones families tend to visit. Staff turnover at 44.2% is close to the national figure, meaning the workforce churns about as much as elsewhere rather than wildly more. Inspections look stronger: a 4/5 health inspection rating, a 4/5 on quality measures, and 19 deficiencies on record with none at harm or jeopardy level, though one is abuse-related. The last inspection was December 2025.

Pine Acres runs lean on nursing hours, 3.79 per resident day, a bit under the national average, and the gap widens on weekends, when coverage drops roughly 13% below its own weekday level. That staffing picture is the weak spot here, and the 58.8% annual turnover rate, well above the national 45.8%, tells you keeping caregivers is an ongoing problem. The good news is the care itself: a 4-out-of-5 health inspection rating, a clean record of 12 deficiencies with none at the harm or jeopardy level and nothing abuse-related, and a recent January 2026 inspection. Quality measures score 5 out of 5. The staffing is the thing to ask about directly, particularly who's on the floor on Saturdays and Sundays.

Complete Care At Cedar Grove runs 190 beds under corporate ownership, and the staffing numbers are the first thing I'd flag. At 3.55 nurse hours per resident day, it sits about 8% under the national average, and weekends dip roughly 4% below its own weekday level. That thin margin matters most when someone needs help on a Saturday. Turnover is the bigger concern: 67.2% annually against a national 45.8%, meaning nearly seven in ten staff left within the year. Inspections look steadier, 19 deficiencies on record, none involving harm or abuse, with the last visit in late 2024. Clinical quality measures score well, but those depend on consistent hands delivering the care.

Complete Care at Voorhees is a 190-bed for-profit home in Camden County, and the numbers tell two different stories. Its quality measure score is perfect, 5 out of 5, but the health inspection record is as low as CMS goes, with 35 deficiencies on file, including one at the harm or jeopardy level and two tied to abuse. Nurse staffing runs 3.53 hours per resident day, roughly 9% under the national average, and weekend coverage dips about 5% below its own weekday level. Annual turnover sits at 56.4%, well above the 45.8% national figure. The last inspection was in January 2025, so the record is current, and the lone fine totals $23,520.

Complete Care at Clark runs 140 beds under corporate ownership, and its inspection record is decent, a four-star health inspection rating, last survey in May 2025, with 15 deficiencies on file. One of those rose to harm or jeopardy level, and one is abuse-related, which is the kind of thing worth asking about directly. The bigger gap is staffing: 3.49 nurse hours per resident day sits about 10% under the national average, weekends run roughly 5% leaner than weekdays, and CMS gives it one star there. Turnover, at 37.8%, is actually better than the 45.8% national figure.

Cranbury Center runs 154 beds in Monroe Township under corporate ownership, and the numbers to focus on are staffing and safety. Nurses give residents 3.21 hours of care per day, about 17% under the national average, and weekends drop roughly 13% below the home's own weekday level. Staff turnover sits at 52.5% against a national 45.8%. The inspection record shows 20 deficiencies, including 2 at the harm or jeopardy level and 5 tied to abuse, with $10,361 in fines and a December 2025 inspection. Two stars each for health inspections and staffing say the same thing the deficiency count does: this home has unresolved problems, and families should ask pointed questions before choosing it.

Complete Care at Wall is a 130-bed for-profit home in Monmouth County, and the staffing numbers are the first thing to look at. Nurses provide 3.78 hours per resident per day, slightly under the national average, and weekend coverage drops about 8% below what the home staffs on weekdays, so care thins out exactly when families tend to visit. Annual turnover of 55.7% sits well above the national 45.8%, which means aides and nurses are cycling through steadily. On inspections, the record shows 18 deficiencies, including two at the harm level and two tied to abuse, with a one-star inspection rating. The five-star quality measure score reflects reported clinical outcomes, but the inspection and staffing picture tells a different story.

Total Rehab Moorestown runs 124 certified beds under for-profit LLC ownership, and its nurse staffing comes in at 4.57 hours per resident day, roughly 18% above the national average of 3.86. That's a real strength. The catch is consistency: weekends drop about 11% below the home's own weekday levels, and annual turnover sits at 50.6%, higher than the 45.8% national figure. On inspections, CMS rated it 2 out of 5 stars, with 17 deficiencies on the current record, none at harm or jeopardy level, none abuse-related, and one fine totaling $25,090. The most recent inspection was April 2025. Quality measures scored 5 out of 5, so the clinical picture looks better than the inspection history suggests.

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.

Acclaim Rehabilitation and Nursing Center runs 183 certified beds in Jersey City under for-profit partnership ownership, and the staffing picture is the weak spot. At 3.05 nurse hours per resident day, it sits roughly 21% under the national average of 3.86, and weekend coverage dips about 4% below its own weekday levels. Turnover lands at 45.7%, essentially matching the national figure. Inspections are a different story: a 4-out-of-5 health inspection rating, 12 deficiencies on record with none at the harm or jeopardy level, though one is abuse-related. The last survey came April 4, 2025, so the record is recent. Quality measures also rate 4 out of 5. The tension here is between thin daily staffing and otherwise solid oversight. If your family member needs frequent hands-on help, ask specifically about weekday-to-weekend coverage and how call lights get answered.

Abingdon runs about 3.03 nursing hours per resident per day, roughly a fifth below the national average of 3.86, and weekends dip even lower. The tradeoff isn't all bad: turnover sits at 28.4% against a national 45.8%, so the staff who are there tend to stay. What the record shows, though, is 35 deficiencies, including one at the harm level and two tied to abuse, plus a $131,966 fine, all from an inspection that closed in April 2025. A 180-bed for-profit home where care quality is measured by the federal government on a five-point scale and the inspection history is the part that lags furthest behind.

Hammonton Center runs 240 beds under for-profit LLC ownership, and its nurse staffing sits at 3.11 hours per resident day, roughly 19% under the national average of 3.86. Weekends dip about 7% below its own weekday levels, and annual turnover hits 58.4% against a national 45.8%, so the aides and nurses cycling through are changing faster than at the typical home. The inspection record is the real story: 44 deficiencies, including one abuse-related citation, with a 1-out-of-5 health inspection rating. Nobody was harmed at the jeopardy level, and the 4-out-of-5 quality measure score suggests clinical results hold up better than the survey history. A January 2026 inspection means the picture is current.

River Front runs on 3.29 nurse hours per resident day, roughly 15 percent under the national average, and weekends drop about 11 percent below what the home staffs on weekdays. Turnover sits at 55.9 percent against a national 45.8, so a lot of the people showing up are still learning the building. The inspection record shows 37 deficiencies, three of them abuse-related, though none rose to harm or jeopardy, and the last visit was in January 2026. Ownership is for-profit, through a limited liability company, with 180 certified beds. The quality measure score looks strong, but that reflects charted care, not the hours actually spent at the bedside.

Autumn Lake Healthcare At Vineland runs 190 beds under for-profit LLC ownership, and the numbers tell a mixed story. Nurse staffing sits at 3.57 hours per resident day, about 8% under the national average, and weekends dip another 8% below its own weekday levels, so coverage is thinnest exactly when families tend to visit. Annual turnover of 55.9% runs well above the 45.8% national figure, which matters because constant churn makes consistent care harder. The inspection record shows 17 deficiencies, one serious enough to reach harm or jeopardy level, though none tied to abuse, and the last survey was recent. Quality measures score well; staffing is where this home lags.

Millville Center runs 167 beds under corporate ownership, and its inspection record is the part that should give you pause: 20 deficiencies on file, including three serious enough to put residents in harm's way and five tied to abuse. Staffing sits at 3.29 nurse hours per resident day, roughly 15% under the national average, and weekends dip about 11% below the home's own weekday levels, so care thins out exactly when families tend to visit. The one real bright spot is turnover at 31.2%, well below the national 45.8%, meaning the aides and nurses who are there tend to stay.

Preferred Care At Cumberland runs on thinner staffing than most homes its size. At 3.58 nurse hours per resident day it sits about 7% under the national average, weekends dip roughly 10% below its own weekday coverage, and turnover hits 57.8%, well above the 45.8% national figure. That churn matters more than any single number here, because it's what makes consistent care hard to hold onto. The inspection record is genuinely solid: a 4-star health inspection rating, 16 deficiencies on file with none at the harm or jeopardy level, no abuse citations, and a recent survey from August 2025. For-profit corporate ownership, 196 beds, and a 4-star quality measure score round it out. The concern isn't safety findings, it's whether there are reliably enough familiar hands on the floor.

The Elms in Cranbury runs 120 beds under for-profit LLC ownership, and its staffing numbers are the first thing to look at: 3.82 nurse hours per resident day, just under the national average, with weekends running about 7% thinner than weekdays. More striking is turnover, 62.5% of staff leaving annually against a national average of 45.8%, which means the people caring for residents are, more often than not, still learning the building. The inspection record shows 11 deficiencies, three of them serious enough to involve harm or jeopardy and two tied to abuse, plus a $57,282 fine. A recent November 2025 inspection and strong quality measures don't erase that combination.
