Country Arch Care Center runs 3.74 nurse hours per resident day, a bit under the national average of 3.86, and weekends dip about 6% below its own weekday coverage. Turnover sits at 39.7%, better than the 45.8% national figure, so the staff you meet are more likely to still be there next year. The record shows 27 deficiencies, none at harm or jeopardy level, though two are abuse-related, worth asking about directly. Inspections are recent, and the quality measure score is perfect. For-profit, individually owned, 130 beds in Pittstown.

Careone At Livingston runs 120 beds under for-profit LLC ownership, and the staffing picture is the strongest part of the story: 4.21 nurse hours per resident day, roughly 9% above the national average of 3.86. Weekend coverage dips about 8% below its own weekday level, which is a normal pattern but worth knowing if your family visits primarily on Saturdays and Sundays. Annual turnover of 11.3% is remarkably low against a national average of 45.8%, suggesting a stable crew that knows the residents. The current record shows 17 deficiencies, none at the harm or jeopardy level and none abuse-related, with the last inspection in August 2025.

Careone At Teaneck runs about 4.52 nurse hours per resident per day, roughly 17% above the national average, and weekend staffing dips about 12% below its own weekday levels, so the coverage is solid on paper but thinner on Saturdays and Sundays. Turnover sits at 29.5%, well below the national 45.8%, which suggests a steadier workforce than most. The current record shows 19 deficiencies with none at the harm level, though four are abuse-related, a category worth asking about directly. The last inspection was in July 2025, so the picture is recent.

Riverside Health and Rehabilitation Center is a for-profit, 141-bed home in Trenton with 34 deficiencies on its current record, including three tied to abuse. None of those rose to the harm or jeopardy level, and the last inspection was in November 2024, so the record is recent. Nurse staffing sits at 3.24 hours per resident day, roughly 16% under the national average, and weekends run about 9% leaner than weekdays. What offsets that is retention: turnover is 34.7%, well below the 45.8% national figure, so the aides and nurses showing up are more likely to already know the residents.

Park Crescent runs on 3.60 nurse hours per resident day, roughly 7% under the national average, and weekends drop about 12% below its own weekday staffing. Turnover sits at 25.3% against a national 45.8%, so the team is unusually stable even if the floor is a little thin at times. The inspection record shows 22 deficiencies with one at harm or jeopardy level and a single $15,240 fine, last surveyed August 2025. For-profit, LLC-owned, 190 beds. The quality measure rating is strong and staffing holds up reasonably well, but that harm-level finding and the below-average daily hours are the things to ask about directly before deciding.

Village Point runs a nonprofit home with 120 beds in Monroe Township, and its staffing is the strongest part of the picture, 4.29 nurse hours per resident day, roughly 11% above the national average, with turnover at 34% against a national 45.8%. Weekends dip about 8% below its own weekday coverage. Where it gets harder is inspections: 15 deficiencies on the current record, two at harm or jeopardy level and one abuse-related, with two fines totaling $237,451 and a July 2025 inspection date, which is recent enough to be current. The quality measure score is strong, but the inspection history is what pulls the overall picture down.

Coral Harbor runs 3.51 nurse hours per resident per day, roughly 9% under the national average of 3.86, and weekends drop about 17% below its own weekday staffing. Turnover sits at 33.8%, which is actually better than the 45.8% national figure, so the staff who are there tend to stay. On paper the quality measures look strong at 5 out of 5 stars, though the 18 deficiencies on record, including one at harm level and two tied to abuse, are worth asking about directly, since the last inspection was January 2025 and conditions can shift.

Complete Care at Madison runs about 3.6 nurse hours per resident day, roughly 7% under the national average of 3.86, and weekends dip another 5% below its own weekday numbers, so the leanest coverage shows up exactly when families tend to visit. Turnover sits at 36.1%, better than the 45.8% national figure, which matters for whether you see the same faces month to month. The 23 deficiencies on record include none at the harm level and none abuse-related, and the most recent inspection was March 2026, so the 4-star inspection and 5-star quality scores rest on recent findings.

Stratford Manor runs 131 beds in West Orange under for-profit LLC ownership, and its staffing sits at 3.33 nurse hours per resident day, roughly 14 percent under the national average of 3.86. Weekends dip about 11 percent below the home's own weekday coverage, so the thinnest shifts land when families tend to visit. Turnover is the bright spot: 22.8 percent against a national 45.8 percent, meaning aides and nurses here tend to stay. The current inspection record shows 23 deficiencies, including one at harm or jeopardy level and one abuse-related; the last survey was September 22, 2025. Quality measures score well, but staffing and inspection results are middling, and that mix is what shapes the overall picture.

Complete Care At Orange Park runs 215 certified beds in East Orange under for-profit limited liability ownership, and its last health inspection was in September 2025, so the record is current. The 24 deficiencies on file carry no harm or jeopardy findings and nothing abuse-related. Staffing sits at 3.14 nurse hours per resident day, roughly 19 percent under the national average, and weekends run about 8 percent lighter than weekdays. What offsets that thinness is retention: turnover is 16.8 percent against a national average near 46 percent, meaning the aides and nurses here tend to stay. Fewer hours, but familiar faces delivering them.

Alameda Center for Rehabilitation and Healthcare is a 250-bed for-profit home in Perth Amboy, run by a limited liability company. The staffing numbers are the weak spot: 3.29 nurse hours per resident day, roughly 15% under the national average, with weekends about 11% leaner than weekdays. Turnover sits at 42.5%, slightly better than the 45.8% national figure, so the problem looks more like thin coverage than a churning workforce. Inspections are current, and the 28 deficiencies on record include none at the harm or jeopardy level and none tied to abuse. What you're weighing, then, is a home that scores well on clinical quality measures and adequately on inspections, but asks residents to get by on less daily nursing time than most places provide.

Complete Care At St Vincents runs 151 certified beds in Cedar Grove under for-profit LLC ownership, and its inspection record is genuinely strong, a five-star health inspection rating with nine total deficiencies, just one at the harm level and none tied to abuse, from a survey completed in July 2025. Staffing tells a different story: 3.48 nurse hours per resident day sits about 10 percent under the national average of 3.86, and weekends run roughly 6 percent leaner than weekdays. Turnover of 33.9 percent, though, beats the national 45.8 percent, so the people who are there tend to stay. Weaker staffing marks against strong quality and inspection scores is the tension worth weighing.

Southern Ocean Center runs 3.56 nurse hours per resident day, roughly 8% under the national average, and weekends dip about 7% below its own weekday staffing. Turnover sits at 35%, noticeably better than the 45.8% national figure. The current record shows 32 deficiencies, none at harm or jeopardy level, though three are abuse-related, worth asking about directly. Inspectors were last on site in September 2025. Quality measures score 5/5, staffing 4/5, health inspections 3/5. What that adds up to: genuinely strong clinical outcomes and steadier-than-average retention, with room to push staffing hours higher and a paper trail that deserves a hard look before you sign anything.

Optima Care Castle Hill runs 215 beds in Union City under for-profit LLC ownership, and its staffing sits around 3.60 nurse hours per resident day, roughly 7% under the national average, with weekends dropping about 9% below its own weekday levels. Turnover at 42.2% is actually a touch better than the national 45.8%. What stands out is the inspection record: 32 deficiencies, including one at harm or jeopardy level and three tied to abuse, with a $8,281 fine and a visit as recent as March 2025. The quality measure score looks strong on paper, but that inspection history is the number a family should ask about directly.

The Health Center at Bloomingdale runs leaner than most on nursing hours, 3.40 per resident per day against a national average of 3.86, and weekends dip roughly 8% below its own weekday coverage. Turnover sits at 41.6%, a bit better than the 45.8% national figure, though still meaning roughly two in five staff leaving in a year. Inspections tell a steadier story: 28 deficiencies on record but none at the harm or jeopardy level, and the last visit was recent, in August 2025. One abuse-related citation is worth asking about directly. The home is corporate-owned and for-profit, with 120 certified beds.

Family Of Caring At Teaneck runs 107 beds under corporate ownership, and its staffing numbers land just under the national mark, 3.70 nurse hours per resident day against 3.86, with weekends about 13% thinner than weekdays. That gap matters more than the headline figure, since care doesn't pause on Saturdays. Turnover sits at 30.4%, well below the 45.8% national average, which suggests a steadier workforce than most. Inspections in December 2025 turned up 18 deficiencies, none at harm or jeopardy level, though one was abuse-related. All three CMS star categories, health inspection, quality measures, and staffing, come in at 4 out of 5.

Majestic Center runs 120 beds in Camden under individual for-profit ownership, and its staffing numbers are right at the national mark, 3.85 nurse hours per resident day against 3.86 nationally, with weekend coverage dipping about 11% below its own weekdays. Turnover sits at 38.3%, better than the 45.8% national figure, so the same faces are more likely to stay. What pulls the record down is the inspection side: 16 deficiencies on file, four of them serious enough to put residents in harm's way and two tied to abuse, plus $260,470 in fines across two cases. The most recent inspection closed in December 2025, so the picture is current.

Complete Care At Woodlands runs a tight ship on retention, 31.6% turnover is well under the 45.8% national figure, which matters because caregivers who stay know the residents. The tradeoff shows up in raw coverage: 3.59 nurse hours per resident day lands about 7% under the national average, and weekends dip roughly 5% below the home's own weekday staffing. Its inspection record is clean where it counts, with 16 deficiencies on file but none involving harm or abuse, and a July 2025 inspection keeps that picture current. For a 120-bed corporate-owned home, the quality measures score and the absence of harm-level findings suggest decent care, just ask how the weekend shift is covered before you decide.

Family Of Caring Healthcare at Montclair runs 70 certified beds under for-profit LLC ownership, and its nurse staffing sits at 4.11 hours per resident day, about 6% above the national average of 3.86. That edge matters, though weekends run roughly 10% thinner than weekdays, so coverage isn't perfectly flat across the week. Staff turnover lands at 32.2%, well below the 45.8% national figure, which suggests a steadier workforce than most homes manage. The current record shows 15 deficiencies, none at the harm or jeopardy level and none abuse-related, with the most recent inspection dated April 30, 2025. All three CMS star ratings, health inspection, quality measures, and staffing, come in at 4 out of 5.

Spring Grove runs 106 beds in New Providence, owned by a limited liability company, and its nurse staffing sits at 3.56 hours per resident day, roughly 8% under the national average, with weekends about 6% thinner than weekdays. Turnover is where it looks better than most: 29.5% against a national 45.8%, so the aides and nurses who are there tend to stay. The tradeoff shows up in its inspection record: 32 deficiencies, including one at the harm level and one abuse-related, a $10,527 fine, and a 2-star health inspection rating, though the last inspection was recent, in March 2026. Its quality measure scores are strong, but those come from resident data, not from how the building is run day to day.
