Campion Health & Wellness runs on 6.80 nurse staffing hours per resident day, roughly 76% above the national average of 3.86, a gap that shows up on weekends too, where hours dip only about 5% below the weekday pace. Staff turnover sits at 30.8% against a national average of 45.8%, and the home carries a single deficiency on its current record, none at the harm or jeopardy level and none abuse-related, with its last inspection in May 2025.

Lasell House runs on about 4.94 nursing hours per resident each day, roughly a quarter more than the typical American nursing home, and its staff turnover sits near 34.5%, well under the national 45.8%. Inspectors have cited just two deficiencies, neither involving harm or abuse, and the most recent visit was in September 2025, so the record is both clean and current. The trade-off worth knowing is weekends, when staffing drops about a fifth from its own weekday level. That's common in nursing homes, but it matters most for a small 44-bed nonprofit where there's less slack to absorb an absence.

Riverbend Of South Natick runs on 4.19 total nurse hours per resident day, roughly 8% above the national figure, and its weekend staffing dips about 9% below its own weekday level, so care thins out somewhat on Saturdays and Sundays. Staff turnover sits at 38.5%, lower than the 45.8% national rate, which suggests people tend to stick around here more than at the average home. The current record shows 19 deficiencies, none at the harm level, though one is abuse-related. That last inspection was recent, in August 2025.

Carleton-Willard Village runs a nonprofit operation in Bedford with 179 certified beds, and the caregiving hours stand out: 5.17 per resident day, roughly a third more than the national average of 3.86, with weekend coverage dipping only slightly below weekdays. Staff turnover of 32.3% also beats the 45.8% national figure, which matters for continuity. The caution signs sit on the inspection side, 11 deficiencies on the current record, five serious enough to involve harm or jeopardy, one tied to abuse, and two fines totaling $25,497, all from an inspection dated February 2025. Strong staffing and quality scores, but a recent survey that found real problems.

New England Pediatric Care runs 80 certified beds as a nonprofit, and the staffing number is the first thing that stands out: 8.11 nurse hours per resident day, roughly double the national average of 3.86. Weekend coverage does dip about 21% below its own weekday level, so ask how that plays out on a Saturday. Turnover sits at 30.7%, well under the national 45.8%, which matters for kids who need consistent caregivers. Five deficiencies on record, none at harm or jeopardy level and none abuse-related, with a clean five-star inspection and quality history.

Rivercrest runs 4.44 nurse hours per resident day, roughly 15% above the national figure, and its weekend staffing only dips about 6% below weekdays, a narrow gap by industry standards. The nonprofit's 27.3% turnover sits well under the 45.8% national average, meaning the people showing up are largely the same people over time. Five deficiencies on record, none involving harm or abuse, with an inspection completed in August 2025. Read together, these numbers describe a home that is staffed and stable rather than merely passing.

Care One At Lowell runs 160 certified beds under a for-profit limited liability company, and its last health inspection came in May 2025. The record shows 27 deficiencies, including one at the harm or jeopardy level and two tied to abuse, worth asking about directly. Nurse staffing sits at 3.68 hours per resident day, roughly 5% under the national average, and weekends drop about 9% below its own weekday levels, so coverage thins out when families tend to visit. What stands out in the other direction is turnover: 20.7% against a national average of 45.8%, meaning aides and nurses here tend to stay. Consistent caregivers matter, especially for residents who need routine.

Aberjona runs on 4.10 nurse hours per resident day, roughly six percent above the national average, and its staff turnover of 20% sits far below the typical 45.8%. That retention matters more than any single inspection result, it means the people caring for residents here tend to stick around. The home carries six deficiencies on its current record, none of them involving harm or jeopardy and none abuse-related, and its last inspection was in May 2025. One thing worth asking about directly: weekend staffing drops about 14% below weekday levels, so if your family visits primarily on Saturdays or Sundays, it's fair to ask how coverage is handled then.

Inspectors were last in on November 26, 2025, and found 15 deficiencies, none at the harm level, though two were abuse-related and worth asking about directly. With 32 beds, it's small enough that you can get real answers from the people in charge.

The inspection record is mostly solid, with 18 deficiencies, but one is at the harm level and one is abuse-related, which you should ask about directly.

Winchester Rehabilitation And Nursing Center, a for-profit LLC home with 121 certified beds, carries a 5/5 CMS staffing rating, and it's earned: 4.38 nurse hours per resident day sits about 13% above the national average of 3.86. Turnover tells a similar story, 28% annual staff turnover against a national average near 46% means the people caring for residents tend to stay. Weekend staffing dips roughly 14% below weekday levels, worth asking about if your family visits on Saturdays or Sundays. The health inspection record shows 18 deficiencies, none at harm or jeopardy level and none abuse-related, with a recent inspection dated February 2026. For a for-profit home, that combination of staffing depth, retention, and a clean harm record is uncommon.

Nurse staffing at Neville Center runs about 4.16 hours per resident day, roughly 8% above the national average, and that cushion matters most on weekends, which here run about 15% below the home's own weekday level. Staff turnover sits at 33%, well under the 45.8% national figure, so the people caring for residents tend to stick around. The inspection record shows 20 deficiencies, none at the harm or jeopardy level and none abuse-related, with the most recent state visit in May 2025. As a nonprofit, it isn't answerable to shareholders. Three four-star CMS ratings across inspections, quality measures, and staffing back up what the numbers suggest: solid, consistent care.

Bethany Skilled Nursing Facility runs on 4.90 nurse hours per resident day, roughly 27% above the national figure, and weekends dip only about 7% below its own weekday staffing, a modest drop for a 169-bed home. Inspectors visited recently, in June 2025, and the home holds a 5-star health inspection rating, though the current record still shows four deficiencies, two of them serious enough to reach harm or jeopardy level, plus one fine of $9,318. Staff turnover sits at 45.2%, essentially the national average of 45.8%, which means this nonprofit retains caregivers about as well as everyone else. Strong staffing and a clean recent inspection carry the weight here; the harm-level citations are what hold it back.

Greenwood Nursing & Rehabilitation Center is a small for-profit home in Wakefield, 36 beds, run by a limited liability company. Staffing sits a little above the national average at 3.99 nurse hours per resident day, and weekends dip about 9% below its own weekday coverage, so ask how that gap gets covered. Turnover is the standout number: 26.5% against a national average near 46%, which matters because consistent caregivers tend to know residents' routines. The inspection record is current, dated August 2025, with 13 deficiencies but nothing at the harm level and nothing abuse-related. Quality measures score well, and four out of five on inspections and staffing backs that up.

Twenty-eight deficiencies appear on the current record, but none at the harm level and none abuse-related, with a single fine of $3,145 and an inspection dated January 2026.

Weekends thin out roughly 10% below weekday coverage, which is worth asking about if your family visits then. The concern sits in inspections. Twenty-three deficiencies are on the current record, four serious enough to reach harm or jeopardy level and three tied to abuse, with $33,157 in fines across three penalties. The most recent inspection was May 2026. Strong daily care hours and relatively stable staff, weighed against a troubling inspection history.

The inspection record is clean where it matters most, five deficiencies on file, none at harm or jeopardy level, none abuse-related, and the last survey was July 25, 2025.
