Madonna Manor is run by a church-affiliated nonprofit, and its staffing numbers stand out for the right reason: 4.03 nurse hours per resident day, a bit above the national average, and turnover of 14.7% against a national rate near 46%. Weekend coverage dips about 7% below weekday levels, which is worth asking about if your visits fall on Saturdays or Sundays. The inspection record is the counterweight, 29 deficiencies on file, five of them at harm or jeopardy level and one abuse-related, with two fines totaling $119,373. Its last inspection was September 2025, so the picture is current. Stable caregivers, meaningful citations.

Sacred Heart runs a tight ship on the staffing side. Nurse coverage sits at 3.86 hours per resident day, essentially the national average, but the weekend dip is only about 7%, which is smaller than what a lot of homes show. Turnover is the real standout: 27.3% against a national average of 45.8%, meaning far fewer people are cycling out the door. The tradeoff shows up in the record. Nineteen deficiencies on file, none at harm or jeopardy level, but one is abuse-related, so ask about that specifically. The last inspection was August 2025, and a 4-star health inspection rating suggests the surveyors didn't find anything serious. Quality measures land midrange at 3 stars.

Care One At New Bedford runs a 154-bed for-profit operation where the nursing hours come in around 3.60 per resident day, roughly 7% under the national average, and weekends dip about 10% below what the home staffs on weekdays. Turnover sits at 29.9%, well under the national 45.8%, which suggests people stick around longer here than at many places. The trade-off shows up in the record: 29 deficiencies, one tied to abuse, though none rose to harm or jeopardy level. Inspectors were last in on August 5, 2025. The staffing rating and the stable workforce are real strengths; the survey history is what keeps this from scoring higher.

Life Care Center Of Attleboro runs 4.09 nurse hours per resident day, about 6% above the national average, but weekend coverage dips roughly 16% below what the home staffs on weekdays, worth asking about if your family visits on Saturdays and Sundays. Staff turnover sits at 34.2%, noticeably under the 45.8% national figure, and the home has a clean recent inspection record: 11 deficiencies, none at the harm or jeopardy level, none abuse-related, with the last survey in September 2025. The five-star marks on health inspections and quality measures stand out; the three-star staffing rating reflects hours that are solid but not exceptional.

Our Ladys Haven runs on a church-affiliated nonprofit model, and the numbers mostly back that up. Nurse staffing sits at 3.76 hours per resident day, just under the national average of 3.86, but weekends dip about 8% below the home's own weekday coverage, so the quiet shifts are when you'd want to visit unannounced. The 35.9% turnover is a genuinely good figure against the 45.8% national rate, meaning aides and nurses tend to stay. Inspections turned up 19 deficiencies, none involving harm or abuse, and a 4-star health inspection with a recent November 2025 survey suggests the place gets checked and corrected. Worth a visit on a Saturday.

The Oaks runs 122 beds in New Bedford under for-profit LLC ownership, and its staffing sits at 3.66 nurse hours per resident day, roughly 5% under the national average of 3.86. Weekends dip about 10% below its own weekday coverage, so your visit timing matters. What stands out is turnover at 28.7%, well under the national 45.8%, which suggests a steadier crew than most. Fourteen deficiencies are on record, none at harm or jeopardy level and none abuse-related, with the most recent inspection in March 2026. Federal ratings put health inspections and quality measures at 4 of 5 stars each, staffing at 3.

Life Care Center of Raynham runs 154 certified beds under corporate ownership, and its staffing sits at 3.72 nurse hours per resident day, roughly 4% under the national average of 3.86. Weekends dip about 13% below the home's own weekday coverage, so the quietest shifts get the thinnest numbers. What stands out favorably is turnover: 24.3% against a national average of 45.8%, which suggests a steadier crew than most. The record shows 18 deficiencies, none at harm or jeopardy level and none abuse-related, with the last inspection dated March 2026. Staffing and quality measures both earned 4 stars from CMS; staffing landed at 3.

Clifton Rehabilitation Nursing Center runs 4.29 nurse hours per resident day, roughly 11% above the national average, and its staff turnover of 36.3% sits well below the 45.8% national figure, both signs of a steadier workforce than most. The catch is weekends, when staffing drops about 16% below the home's own weekday level, so coverage isn't evenly spread across the week. Its 27 deficiencies include one abuse-related citation, though none rose to harm or jeopardy, and the most recent inspection was in May 2025. For-profit corporate ownership, 142 beds, and solid marks across inspections, quality measures, and staffing round out a picture of a home that's generally reliable but worth asking about on Saturdays and Sundays.

Catholic Memorial Home runs 300 beds in Fall River under church-affiliated nonprofit ownership, and its nurse staffing sits at 4.28 hours per resident day, about 11% above the national average, while annual turnover of 29.6% lands well below the 45.8% national figure, meaning the people who work here tend to stay. Weekends dip roughly 5% below weekday coverage. Those are real strengths, and they're why the staffing rating comes in at 4 out of 5. But the inspection record is where the picture darkens: 42 deficiencies logged, five of them serious enough to involve harm or jeopardy, eight tied to abuse, and two fines totaling $94,419. State inspectors last visited in April 2025 for a reason.

Mill Brook runs 152 certified beds in Fall River under corporate ownership, and its staffing is the number to sit with: 3.27 nurse hours per resident day, roughly 15 percent under the national average, with weekends about 12 percent thinner than weekdays. Turnover sits at 43.2 percent, slightly better than the national 45.8 percent, so the problem isn't retention so much as how few hours reach the floor. The current record shows 44 deficiencies, three at harm or jeopardy level and two abuse-related, though the most recent inspection was August 2025 and quality measures score well. Ask about weekend coverage and how those harm citations were resolved.

Garden Place runs 133 certified beds in Attleboro under for-profit LLC ownership, and its staff retention is the standout number here: 23.4% annual turnover against a national average of 45.8%. That kind of stability matters, but it doesn't offset the inspection record. There are 43 deficiencies on file, including two at the harm or jeopardy level and three tied to abuse, plus two fines totaling $82,488. Nurse staffing sits at 3.42 hours per resident day, about 11% under the national average, and weekends run roughly 7% thinner than weekdays. The last inspection was December 10, 2025. Low turnover is a genuine strength here, but the harm-level findings and thin weekend coverage are the things I'd ask about directly.

Marian Manor of Taunton runs on a nonprofit model with 116 certified beds, and its staffing sits at 3.80 nurse hours per resident day, just under the national average of 3.86. Weekends dip about 7% below its own weekday coverage, which matters if your family visits on Saturdays and Sundays. Turnover is the bright spot: 35.5% versus a national average of 45.8%, meaning aides and nurses tend to stick around longer here than at the typical home. The caution is in the inspection record, 28 deficiencies, including one at harm level and four tied to abuse, plus an $8,788 fine. The most recent inspection was March 2025, so the picture is current.

Brandon Woods of Dartmouth runs 118 certified beds under corporate ownership, and its nurse staffing sits right at the national average of 3.86 hours per resident day. That sounds fine until you notice weekends run about 11% thinner than weekdays, and turnover hits 49.6%, nearly four points above the national rate. The inspection record is the bigger concern: 40 deficiencies, five of them serious enough to involve harm or jeopardy, plus three tied to abuse. Three fines totaling $31,009 are on file, and the last inspection was February 2025. Federal ratings put health inspections and quality measures both at 2 out of 5. If you're weighing this one, ask hard questions about weekend coverage and how they've addressed those abuse-related findings.

Fall River Jewish Home runs 62 beds under for-profit LLC ownership, and its nurse staffing sits at 3.03 hours per resident day, roughly 22% under the national average of 3.86. Weekends dip about 5% below its own weekday numbers, so coverage thins out when families tend to visit. Turnover is 41.8%, a bit better than the 45.8% national figure, but the inspection record is the real weight here: 70 deficiencies, five at harm or jeopardy level, ten abuse-related, and a $52,702 fine. The last inspection was June 10, 2025. Quality measures score well; staffing and inspections do not.

Hathaway Manor runs 142 beds as a nonprofit, and its nurse staffing sits at 3.67 hours per resident day, roughly 5% under the national average of 3.86. Weekends drop about 15% below its own weekday coverage, so the thinnest shifts land when families tend to visit. The inspection record is the heavier concern: 49 deficiencies, including 6 at harm or jeopardy level and 6 tied to abuse, with three fines totaling $34,887 and a 2/5 inspection rating. Staff turnover of 45.7% is essentially the national rate, so retention isn't the outlier here, the survey history is. The most recent inspection was January 2025.

Royal Of Fairhaven is a 107-bed for-profit home run by a limited liability company, and staffing is where it struggles most, the federal staffing rating sits at just one star, well below what you'd want to see for a building this size. Inspectors have logged 17 deficiencies on the current record, two of them serious enough to reach harm or jeopardy level, though none involved abuse. One fine totaling $8,648 has been levied. The good news is that the last inspection was recent, in March 2025, and the health inspection rating lands at a middling three stars. Quality measures come in at two stars. If you're considering this home, ask specifically about direct-care staffing levels on evenings and weekends.

Kimwell runs on leaner nurse staffing than most homes, 3.58 hours per resident day against a national average of 3.86, and weekends dip about 13% below what the home itself staffs on weekdays. That gap matters, because 24 deficiencies sit on its current record, including one at the harm level and one tied to abuse, with a $8,278 fine. The two-star inspection and one-star quality ratings line up with that history. Turnover at 40% is actually better than the 45.8% national figure, so leadership isn't the core problem here. The last inspection was March 2026, so the record is recent, not stale. If you're weighing this one, ask directly how weekends are covered and what changed after the harm-level finding.

Sarah S Brayton Center runs 183 certified beds in Fall River under for-profit LLC ownership, and the staffing picture is mixed in a way worth understanding. Its 3.43 nurse hours per resident day sits about 11% under the national average, and weekends drop roughly another 10% below its own weekday level, so coverage thins out right when families tend to visit. Turnover at 38.7% actually beats the national 45.8%, which suggests some stability in who's showing up. The trouble is what inspections found: 51 deficiencies on the current record, including one at harm or jeopardy level and three tied to abuse, plus a $151,920 fine. CMS rated the last inspection 2 out of 5, and that was in February 2026.

Wedgemere runs lean on nursing hours, 3.56 per resident day, roughly 8% under the national average, and weekends are thinner still, about 11% below its own weekday coverage. The inspection record is the bigger concern: 50 deficiencies, including two at the harm or jeopardy level and one tied to abuse, plus a $129,794 fine, with federal health and staffing ratings both at the bottom of the scale. Staff turnover, at 43.8%, is actually slightly better than the 45.8% national average, so retention isn't the main problem here. The last inspection was in January 2025, so the record is recent. If you're considering this home, ask directly how the abuse deficiency was resolved and what weekend coverage looks like on the evening shift.

Alden Court runs a nonprofit shop in Fairhaven with 142 beds, and the nurse staffing numbers look decent on paper, 4.24 hours per resident day, roughly 10% above the national average. The catch is weekends, when coverage drops about 14% below what the home staffs during the week. That matters for families whose visits or care concerns cluster on Saturdays and Sundays. Turnover sits at 57.2%, well above the 45.8% national figure, so the people showing up may not be the same faces month to month. Inspections in June 2025 turned up 11 deficiencies, one serious enough to involve harm or jeopardy, though none tied to abuse. The health inspection rating reflects that relative cleanliness; the staffing and quality scores land in the middle.
