Our read on Alpine Healthcare Center
Alpine Healthcare Center runs 85 beds in Keene under for-profit LLC ownership, and its nurse staffing sits at 3.14 hours per resident day, roughly 19% under the national average of 3.86. Weekends dip about 10% below the home's own weekday numbers, and turnover lands at 47.8%, a bit above the national 45.8%. The inspection record carries 21 deficiencies, four tied to abuse, though none rose to the harm or jeopardy level. CMS gave it one star each for health inspections and staffing, two for quality measures, and the state last visited in June 2025. What stands out is staffing: consistently thin, thinner on weekends, with a workforce cycling through faster than average.
