Our read on Amie Holt Care Center

Amie Holt Care Center runs on a government hospital-district model in Buffalo, and the staffing numbers show it: 4.97 nurse hours per resident day against a national average of 3.86. Weekend coverage dips about 16% below its own weekday level, which is worth asking about if your family visits mainly on Saturdays and Sundays. Staff turnover sits at 40.8%, better than the 45.8% national figure but still meaning roughly two in five caregivers leaving each year. Seven deficiencies on record, none at harm or jeopardy level and none abuse-related, with the most recent inspection in April 2025.
