Our read on Schervier Nursing Care Center

Schervier runs 366 beds in the Bronx under for-profit LLC ownership, and the numbers pull in different directions. Nurse staffing sits at 2.90 hours per resident day, roughly a quarter below the national average of 3.86, with weekends about 8% thinner than weekdays. Quality measures score well, but the staffing rating and 33 deficiencies on the current record, four tied to abuse, say more about daily experience than the five-star quality score does. Turnover at 42.6% is slightly better than the national 45.8%, and none of those deficiencies hit harm or jeopardy level. The last inspection was March 2025, so the record is recent.
