Our read on Maplewood Center

Maplewood Center has real staffing muscle, 5.12 nurse hours per resident day sits about a third above the national average, but the inspection record is where the story turns. Eighty-one deficiencies on the current record, eleven of them at harm or jeopardy level and ten tied to abuse, with $352,483 in fines across four penalties. That's a lot of serious findings for a 150-bed nonprofit, and a 1-out-of-5 health inspection rating reflects it. Turnover runs 52.1% against a national 45.8%, so even the strong staffing numbers come with constant churn, and weekend coverage drops about 9% below weekdays. The most recent inspection was May 2025, so the record is current.
