Highland Park Rehabilitation and Healthcare Center is a 195-bed for-profit home in Chelsea, and the numbers worth knowing start with staffing: 3.02 nurse hours per resident day, roughly 22% under the national average of 3.86. Weekend coverage drops about 7% below what the home itself staffs on weekdays, and turnover sits at 48.6%, a bit above the national 45.8%. The inspection record is the bigger concern: 77 deficiencies, five of them abuse-related, with the most recent inspection dated March 2026. No deficiency currently rises to harm or jeopardy level, which matters. But 77 findings and a one-star health inspection rating point to a home where problems get cited repeatedly. Ask about the abuse-related deficiencies specifically, and about who's actually on the floor on weekends.
