Our read on Elizabeth Seton Children's Center

Elizabeth Seton Children's Center runs on a nonprofit model with 169 certified beds, and the staffing numbers stand out right away: 11.06 nurse hours per resident day, roughly triple the national average of 3.86. Weekend coverage dips about 7% below weekday levels, but that's a modest gap given the overall volume. Staff turnover sits at 22.2%, well under the national 45.8%, which suggests people stay. Inspections in August 2025 turned up 14 deficiencies, none at the harm or jeopardy level, though four were abuse-related, worth asking about directly. The quality and staffing ratings both come in at the top of CMS's scale, and the health inspection rating is close behind.
