Prescott House runs 126 beds in North Andover under for-profit LLC ownership, and its staffing sits at 3.59 nurse hours per resident day, about 7% under the national average of 3.86. Weekends dip roughly 10% below its own weekday coverage, so the thinnest shifts land when families tend to visit. Turnover is the brighter spot: 28.3% against a national 45.8%, meaning the aides and nurses here tend to stick around. But the inspection record is the weight on this home: 38 deficiencies, including one at harm level and one abuse-related, with a $15,935 fine and a 2-out-of-5 health inspection rating. The most recent inspection was January 21, 2026.

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.

Care One At Concord runs leaner on nursing hours than most homes, 3.51 per resident day against a national average of 3.86, and the gap widens on weekends, when coverage drops about 8% below its own weekday level. That thin margin matters more given six deficiencies on the current record, including one involving harm or jeopardy and one tied to abuse, plus a $7,901 fine.
What works in its favor: staff turnover sits at 30.1%, well under the 45.8% national figure, so the people who are there tend to stay. A four-star inspection rating and a January 2026 survey suggest the problems aren't going unaddressed. Corporate-owned and for-profit, it's a home where continuity helps offset staffing that's below par.

Baker-Katz runs about 7% leaner on nursing hours than the national average, and weekends dip roughly 5% below its own weekday staffing, modest gaps, but worth asking about if your family member needs help at predictable times. The inspection record is the strongest part of the picture: 17 deficiencies on file, none at harm or jeopardy level and none abuse-related, with a fresh survey in May 2025. Turnover sits at 42.6%, slightly better than the national 45.8%, which suggests the aide who answers your mother's call light may have been there a while. It's a for-profit LLC with 77 beds, so ask who owns it and how long the director of nursing has stayed.

Sancta Maria, a church-affiliated nonprofit in Cambridge with 141 certified beds, runs nurse staffing at 4.22 hours per resident day, roughly 9% above the national average, though weekends dip about 8% below its own weekday levels. That staffing picture looks better than it actually grades: CMS gives the home 2 out of 5 stars for staffing and 2 for health inspections, and the current record holds 36 deficiencies, including one at the harm or jeopardy level and one abuse-related. The last inspection was March 25, 2026, so the findings are recent, not old history. The 3-star quality measure rating is the strongest number here. If you're weighing this home, ask directly about the weekend coverage gap, the abuse-related deficiency, and what changed since that March survey.

Pilgrim Rehabilitation runs 4.14 nurse hours per resident day, roughly 7% above the national average, and its staff turnover of 37% sits below the 45.8% national figure, both signs of a stable floor. Weekend staffing drops about 11% from weekday levels, so ask how coverage holds up on Saturdays and Sundays.
The current record shows 7 deficiencies, none at harm or jeopardy level and none abuse-related, with the most recent inspection in January 2026. The weaker spot is the 2/5 quality measure rating, which reflects how residents' clinical outcomes track against expected benchmarks rather than how the place is run day to day. Corporate for-profit ownership, 152 beds.

Sherrill House runs a bit lean on nursing hours, 3.66 per resident day against a national average of 3.86, and weekends dip about 7% below its own weekday coverage, so a Saturday shift isn't the same as a Tuesday one. The nonprofit's 39.5% turnover is better than the 45.8% national figure, which matters for continuity. What pulls it down is the inspection record: 31 deficiencies, including two at harm or jeopardy level and three tied to abuse. A recent April 2026 inspection means the picture is current, not stale. Families weighing this one should ask directly how those harm and abuse findings 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.

Andover Manor Rehab And Nursing runs 174 beds under for-profit LLC ownership, and its staffing sits slightly under the national average, 3.80 nurse hours per resident day against 3.86, with weekends dropping about 12% below its own weekday level. Turnover is 47%, just above the 45.8% national figure. The inspection record is where the real weight sits: 51 deficiencies, three of them abuse-related, though none reached harm or jeopardy level, and the last inspection was recent, in January 2026. Quality measures score well, but a two-star health inspection rating and that abuse-related count are the numbers a family should ask about directly before deciding.

Oakdale Rehabilitation runs a tight ship on inspections, a recent visit in June 2025 turned up 11 deficiencies, none of them causing harm and none tied to abuse, which is a cleaner record than plenty of homes its size. Where it gives ground is staffing. At 3.65 nurse hours per resident day, it sits about 6% under the national average, and weekends drop roughly another 10% below its own weekday coverage. Turnover is the bigger tell: 55.3% of staff leaving annually against a national 45.8% means a lot of new faces, and new faces don't know your mother's routines. For-profit ownership under an LLC. Nothing alarming here, but ask who's actually on the floor on a Sunday.

Regalcare At Greenfield runs a 120-bed for-profit operation, and its staffing sits at 3.24 nurse hours per resident day, about 16 percent under the national average of 3.86. Weekends dip roughly 7 percent below the home's own weekday coverage, so the thinnest shifts are the ones when families tend to visit.
The inspection record is the stronger side: a 4-out-of-5 health inspection rating, last survey in January 2025, and 18 deficiencies on file with none at the harm or jeopardy level and nothing abuse-related. Turnover lands at 39.5 percent, better than the 45.8 percent national figure, though that only partly offsets a 2-out-of-5 staffing rating. If you're weighing this one, ask how the weekend floor is actually covered.

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.

Brookside runs a for-profit shop with 81 beds in Webster, and the staffing numbers are its strongest card, 3.88 nurse hours per resident day, just barely over the national average, with a 4-out-of-5 staffing rating. Turnover sits at 41.8%, below the national 45.8%, which matters for whether you see the same faces month to month. The problem is what inspections keep finding: 30 deficiencies on the current record, including one at harm or jeopardy level and one tied to abuse, against a 1-out-of-5 quality measure rating. Weekend coverage also drops about 7% below weekday levels. Inspectors were last in on July 30, 2025. Ask pointed questions about that abuse citation and the harm-level finding before you decide.

Palm Springs Post Acute runs 124 certified beds in Chelmsford under corporate for-profit ownership, and the staffing numbers are the first thing you'd want to know about. Total nurse coverage sits at 3.62 hours per resident day, about 6% under the national average of 3.86, and weekends drop roughly 13% below what the home staffs during the week. That matters for a family thinking about Saturday-night call bells.
Turnover is 43.3%, which is slightly better than the 45.8% national figure, so aides and nurses aren't leaving faster than average. But the inspection record carries 28 deficiencies, including one at the harm level and two tied to abuse. The health inspection rating sits at 2 out of 5, with a recent survey date of November 2025.

Care Village At Mattapan runs about 2.85 nurse hours per resident per day, roughly a quarter below the national average of 3.86, and weekend coverage dips a bit further below its own weekday numbers. That thin staffing sits alongside 58 deficiencies on the current record, including one at the harm level and five flagged as abuse-related, which is a lot for an 85-bed home; the inspection history and staffing both land at 2 out of 5 stars, while quality measures come in at 4. Staff turnover of 20.8% is well under the national average of 45.8%, so the people who are there tend to stay. The last inspection was February 19, 2026.

Benjamin Healthcare Center is a 205-bed nonprofit home in Boston that keeps its staff. Turnover runs 11.5% a year against a national average near 46%, and CMS gives it 4 out of 5 stars for staffing and for quality measures. Those numbers are real, and they matter for day-to-day care.
What pulls it down is everything the state and federal inspectors found. Thirty-two deficiencies sit on the current record, including two at the harm or jeopardy level and two tied to abuse. One fine of $96,705. A 1-star health inspection rating, and a place in the Special Focus Facility program, which CMS reserves for the homes it watches most closely.
The last inspection was April 30, 2025. If you're considering this one, ask what's being done about those deficiencies.

The nurse staffing here runs about 4.62 hours per resident day, roughly 20% above the national average, and the staff tends to stay, 32.7% turnover against a national rate near 46%. Weekends are thinner, though, running about 15% below weekday coverage, so ask how weekends are actually handled. The inspection record is mixed: 29 deficiencies on file, two of them serious enough to involve harm or jeopardy, and $166,780 in fines across 14 penalties. No abuse citations. The last inspection was recent, February 2026, and the health inspection rating sits at 4 of 5 stars.

Staff turnover sits at 35.8%, well under the 45.8% national figure, which matters for consistent care. The home's 13 deficiencies include one abuse-related citation, but none rose to harm or jeopardy, and its last inspection was in February 2025. With 123 certified beds under corporate for-profit ownership, this is a solidly average home on paper, good staffing, a clean harm record, and a recent survey, but not one where the numbers suggest anything exceptional.

Cape Regency runs lean on nursing hours, 3.35 per resident day, roughly 13 percent under the national average, and weekends dip about 12 percent below its own weekday levels. Turnover is the one bright spot: 29.1 percent against a national 45.8 percent, so the staff who are there tend to stay. The inspection record is the real problem. Forty-seven deficiencies on the current record, one serious enough to reach harm or jeopardy level, with the most recent inspection in May 2025. For-profit, LLC-owned, 120 beds. If you're weighing this one, ask specifically about that harm-level finding and how the home covers weekends.

St. Joseph Rehab & Nursing Care Center runs 123 certified beds in Dorchester under for-profit LLC ownership. Nurse staffing sits at 3.72 hours per resident day, roughly 4% under the national average, and weekends drop about 10% below the home's own weekday coverage, the pattern families often notice when visiting on a Saturday. Turnover of 37.7% is actually better than the 45.8% national figure, so retention isn't the weak spot here. The inspection record is: 44 deficiencies, four of them at harm or jeopardy level and one abuse-related, with two fines totaling $82,612. The most recent inspection was February 2026. Weigh the harm-level citations and the $82,612 in fines against that decent turnover number.
