River Glen runs 3.71 nurse hours per resident day, about 4% under the national average, and weekends dip roughly 12% below its own weekday staffing. That gap matters most on Saturdays and Sundays, when families often visit and when problems tend to surface. Turnover sits at 39.6%, better than the 45.8% national figure, which suggests some stability in the workforce. On inspections, the record shows 27 deficiencies with none at the harm or jeopardy level, though three are abuse-related and worth asking about directly. The most recent inspection was in August 2025, so the picture is current.

Pomperaug Woods runs a small 37-bed unit, and its nurse staffing sits well above the national norm, about 5.26 hours per resident day against 3.86 nationally. That's the strongest part of the picture, though weekend coverage dips roughly 12% below its own weekday level, so care isn't perfectly even across the week. Staff turnover lands at 45.1%, essentially matching the national rate. What pulls the record down is the inspection side: 20 deficiencies on file, including 2 at the harm level and 3 tied to abuse, with two fines totaling $20,872. The most recent inspection was in October 2024. Strong staffing, a rougher paper trail.

Lutheran Home of Southbury runs a nonprofit operation with 120 certified beds, and its nurse staffing sits at 4.25 hours per resident day, roughly 10% above the national average of 3.86. That's a real strength, though weekends run about 13% thinner than weekdays, so coverage isn't perfectly even across the week. Staff turnover lands at 49.2%, a bit above the 45.8% national figure, which matters for how well residents get to know their caregivers. The inspection record shows 35 total deficiencies with none at the harm or jeopardy level, but 7 are abuse-related, a category worth asking about directly. The most recent inspection was June 17, 2025, so the picture is current.
