Our read on Heath Village
Heath Village runs a solid non-profit home in Hackettstown. The numbers that stand out most are the ones that don't match: nurse staffing sits at 4.72 hours per resident day, roughly 22% above the national average, yet annual turnover hits 97.2% against a national norm near 46%. That means the care hours are there, but the people delivering them are cycling through fast, weekend coverage also dips about 8% below weekday levels. On paper, inspections look clean: 11 deficiencies, none at harm or jeopardy level, none abuse-related, and the most recent survey was in March 2026. The quality measure rating sits at 3 out of 5, softer than staffing and inspection scores. If consistency of caregivers matters to your family, ask how they hold onto aides.
