Abuse icon on record

The staffing numbers at this Piscataway home look decent on paper, 3.94 nurse hours per resident day, a bit above the national average, but weekends drop about 9% below weekday coverage, and a 1-out-of-5 inspection rating tells you the care isn't matching the payroll. Thirty-seven deficiencies sit on the current record, four of them serious enough to put residents in harm's way and five tied to abuse. CMS has placed it in the Special Focus Facility program, reserved for the country's poorest performers, and the most recent inspection was in December 2024. Ownership is for-profit, through a limited liability company. Staff turnover, at 41.9%, is actually slightly better than average, the problem here isn't retention, it's what's happening on the floor.
