Odd Fellows Health Care Center in Auburn runs on a nonprofit structure and just 26 beds, which tends to mean the staff actually know the residents. Its 4.52 nurse hours per resident day sit well above the national average, though weekends drop roughly a fifth below weekday coverage, so timing matters if you're visiting or calling. The home carries 24 deficiencies on its current record, including one tied to abuse, but none at the harm or jeopardy level, and its last inspection was in February 2026. Quality and staffing both score 4 out of 5 from CMS, with inspection results at 3. For a small nonprofit, the numbers describe a stable place with some compliance history worth asking about directly.
Russell Park runs 50 beds in Lewiston, and the staffing numbers are the bright spot: 4.17 nurse hours per resident day, roughly 8% above the national average, with turnover at 36.1% against a national 45.8%. Weekends dip about 7% below its own weekday level, so coverage gets thinner then. The problem sits in inspections, a 1/5 health inspection rating, 44 deficiencies on the current record, including two tied to abuse, though none at harm or jeopardy level. The last inspection was May 2025, so the record reflects recent findings rather than old ones. Quality measures come in at 3/5 under corporate, for-profit ownership. Strong daily staffing paired with a weak inspection history is what a family should weigh here.
Marshwood Center runs 108 certified beds in Lewiston under corporate for-profit ownership, and the staffing numbers are its clearest strength: 3.98 nurse hours per resident day, a bit above the national average, with weekend coverage dipping only slightly below weekdays. Staff turnover of 33.6% is well under the national 45.8%, which matters for whether caregivers actually stick around long enough to know residents. The current record shows 29 deficiencies, none at the harm or jeopardy level and none abuse-related, and the most recent inspection came March 18, 2026, so the picture is recent rather than stale. Where it gives ground is inspections, rated 3 out of 5, while quality measures and staffing each sit at 4.
St Mary's D'youville Pavilion runs 210 beds under nonprofit ownership, and the staffing numbers are genuinely better than most: 4.01 nurse hours per resident day against a national average of 3.86, with weekends only about 2% lighter than weekdays. That consistency matters. What pulls the record down is inspection history, 28 deficiencies on file, including one at the harm level and one abuse-related, plus a $22,205 fine and a one-star health inspection rating, though the most recent survey was March 2025. Staff turnover sits at 50%, above the 45.8% national figure. Quality measures score well. The pattern here is a home that's well-staffed on paper but has real compliance problems to ask about directly.
Montello Manor is a 37-bed for-profit home in Lewiston, and the numbers point in two directions at once. Nurse staffing runs 4.18 hours per resident day, about 8% above the national average, but weekends drop roughly 15% below the home's own weekday level, so coverage depends on when you visit. The bigger concern is the inspection record: a 1-out-of-5 health inspection rating, 39 deficiencies on file including one at the harm or jeopardy level and one tied to abuse, plus a $14,518 fine. Staff turnover of 51.9% tops the national 45.8% average, meaning caregivers cycle through steadily. That combination is what keeps the overall grade at a C despite solid staffing numbers.
Clover Health Care in Auburn runs 109 certified beds under for-profit LLC ownership, and the numbers tell a mixed story. Nurse staffing sits at 3.79 hours per resident day, roughly 2% under the national average, and weekends drop about 10% below its own weekday levels, while annual turnover hits 55% against a national 45.8%. What stands out most is the inspection record: 54 deficiencies, including 2 at harm or jeopardy level and 2 tied to abuse, plus a spot in CMS's Special Focus Facility program and a 1-star health inspection rating. A recent May 2025 inspection and only $15,317 in fines suggest problems are being watched closely.
