All 6 Medicare-certified nursing homes in New Port Richey,
side by side on the things that separate them: how many nursing hours each resident gets, how much of the
staff leaves each year, and what inspectors found on their last visit.
Life Care Center of New Port Richey runs 113 certified beds under corporate for-profit ownership, and the staffing picture is solidly above average: 3.98 total nurse hours per resident day against a national figure of 3.86. Turnover sits at 37.4%, well under the 45.8% national rate, which matters for continuity of care. The trade-offs show up elsewhere. Weekend staffing drops roughly 8% below the home's own weekday level, and a current record of 24 deficiencies, none at harm or jeopardy level, none abuse-related, points to paperwork and process problems rather than resident safety failures. The last inspection was March 5, 2025, so the record is recent. Quality measures score 5/5 while health inspections score 3/5, a split worth understanding before you visit.
Heather Hill runs a nonprofit home with 105 beds in New Port Richey, and its strongest suit is staffing: 3.44 nurse hours per resident day, about 11% under the national average, but turnover sits at 38.2% against a national 45.8%, meaning the aides and nurses here stick around longer than is typical. Weekends dip roughly 6% below weekday coverage, so ask how that plays out on a Sunday. The state inspection record is the weak spot: 25 deficiencies, one serious enough to involve harm or jeopardy, with the last survey in June 2024. Nothing abuse-related appears on file. A 2/5 inspection rating next to a 4/5 staffing rating tells you where to aim your questions.
Aspire At Ridge Haven runs 120 beds in New Port Richey under corporate ownership, and its staffing is the number that stands out: 3.24 nurse hours per resident day, roughly 16% under the national average of 3.86, with weekends about 10% thinner than weekdays. Turnover sits at 49.5%, above the 45.8% national figure, so the faces around your relative may change often. The record shows 22 deficiencies, none at harm or jeopardy level and none abuse-related, with the last inspection in January 2024. Quality measures score well; it's the day-to-day coverage that's lean. Ask how weekends and evenings are actually staffed before deciding.
The Nursing & Rehabilitation Center of New Port Richey runs 120 beds under corporate for-profit ownership, and its staffing numbers are the clearest signal here: 3.54 nurse hours per resident day sits about 8% under the national average, weekends drop roughly 9% below its own weekday levels, and annual turnover hits 53.8% against a 45.8% national figure. Inspections back that up, a 2-out-of-5 health inspection rating, 20 deficiencies on the current record, including two tied to abuse, though none rose to actual harm or jeopardy. The last survey was December 2024, so the record is fairly current. Quality measures score a middling 3, but staffing lands at 1. When turnover is this high and weekend coverage thins out, ask who's actually on the floor on a Sunday.
Madison Pointe runs about 3.65 nurse hours per resident each day, roughly 5% under the national average, and weekends dip another 7% below its own weekday staffing. Turnover sits at 35.1%, which is actually better than the 45.8% national figure, so the staff who are there tend to stay. The concerns show up elsewhere: 18 deficiencies on the current record, including one at the harm level and two tied to abuse, plus a $33,413 fine. The last inspection was April 2024. Quality measures score well, but the inspection history and thin weekend coverage are the things I'd ask about directly.
Southern Pines runs on thinner nursing coverage than most homes, about 3.44 hours per resident per day against a national average near 3.86, and weekends drop further below its own weekday level. That gap matters most on Saturdays and Sundays, when families often visit and notice. Staff turnover sits at 58.7%, well above the national 45.8%, which means the people caring for residents are frequently new to the building. Its last full inspection was in October 2023, and the record shows 25 deficiencies, none at the harm or jeopardy level, none abuse-related. All three CMS star ratings land at two out of five, and it operates as a for-profit limited liability company.
