Alden Court Nursing Care & Rehabilitation Center

Fairhaven, MA · Bristol County

Nurse hours

Staff turnover
57%

0

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.

Royal Wood Mill Center runs 94 certified beds in Lawrence under for-profit LLC ownership, and its nurse staffing sits at 3.76 hours per resident day, just under the national average of 3.86. Weekends drop about 14% below its own weekday coverage, and annual turnover hits 50% against a national 45.8%. The current inspection record carries 26 deficiencies, including 2 at the harm or jeopardy level and 4 tied to abuse. CMS gives it 3 stars for health inspections, 2 for quality measures, and 2 for staffing, with the most recent inspection dated March 25, 2026. Those aren't disqualifying numbers on their own, but the abuse-related citations and harm-level findings are the parts worth asking the administrator about directly before you decide.

Mount Carmel Care Center sits in Lenox with 69 certified beds and a church-affiliated nonprofit owner, and its nurses put in 4.10 hours per resident day, roughly 6% above the national average, with weekend coverage running about 6% thinner than its own weekdays. That staffing edge is real, but it's undercut by 73.3% annual turnover against a 45.8% national figure, meaning the people providing that care are largely new to the building. The record shows 22 deficiencies, one serious enough to trigger a harm-level citation, plus a single $46,410 fine. The most recent inspection closed in April 2025, so the picture is current. Good daily coverage, unstable workforce, and a recent serious finding, that's the tension worth weighing.

Royal Of Cotuit runs on 3.32 nurse hours per resident day, about 14% under the national average of 3.86, and weekends drop roughly 13% below its own weekday staffing. That thinner weekend coverage matters because this for-profit LLC carries 35 deficiencies on its current record, including two at the harm or jeopardy level and three tied to abuse, with $7,901 in fines. Staff turnover sits at 47.7%, slightly above the national 45.8%, and all three CMS star ratings, health inspections, quality measures, and staffing, land at 2 out of 5. The most recent inspection was March 31, 2026. If you're weighing this one, ask directly how weekends are covered and what changed after those abuse-related findings.

Lee Healthcare runs 88 certified beds under for-profit LLC ownership, and the staffing numbers are where the trouble starts: 3.18 nurse hours per resident day against a national average of 3.86, with weekends running roughly 9% thinner than weekdays. That shortfall shows up in who stays and who leaves, annual turnover of 62.3% against a national 45.8% means roughly three in five caregivers are new each year, and it's hard to build familiarity with residents that way. The current inspection record carries 34 deficiencies, one serious enough to reach harm or jeopardy level, though none are abuse-related. State inspectors were last in on September 10, 2025, and the quality measure rating sits at 1 out of 5.

Southeast Rehabilitation & Skilled Care Center is a 171-bed for-profit home in North Easton with a record that should give you pause. Inspectors have logged 67 deficiencies, including 3 at the harm or jeopardy level and 6 tied to abuse, and CMS rates all three of its star categories, health inspections, quality measures, and staffing, at just one out of five. Its 3.13 nurse staffing hours per resident day runs about 19 percent below the national average, and weekends dip roughly 10 percent below its own weekday levels. The one bright spot is turnover: 27.5 percent against a national average of 45.8 percent, meaning the staff who are there tend to stay. The most recent inspection was July 31, 2025, with a single fine of $11,947 on record.

Northwood runs about 2.83 nursing hours per resident day, roughly 27% under the national average of 3.86, and it doesn't add help on weekends, when staffing dips another 3% below its own weekday level. The tradeoff isn't explained by retention: turnover is 23.8%, well below the national 45.8%, so people tend to stay. What the record shows instead is a pattern of problems: 55 deficiencies, three at harm or jeopardy level, five tied to abuse, and two fines totaling $165,780. The most recent inspection was August 2025, and the health inspection rating sits at 1 out of 5.

Serious cites

The Grove At Carvalho runs on 3.42 nurse hours per resident day, about 12% under the national average, and weekend coverage dips roughly 5% below what it manages on weekdays. Its inspection history is the bigger concern: 47 deficiencies on the current record, two of them serious enough to reach harm or jeopardy level, plus seven fines totaling $39,082. A corporation owns the 112-bed home, and the staffing and quality measure ratings both sit at the low end of CMS's scale. The most recent inspection was in April 2026, so the record is current rather than stale, meaning those 47 findings reflect conditions regulators saw recently, not problems already resolved.

Plymouth Rehabilitation runs 186 certified beds under corporate ownership, and its nurse staffing sits at 3.12 hours per resident day, roughly 19% under the national average of 3.86. Weekends drop about 14% below what the home itself staffs on weekdays, so the weakest coverage lands when families tend to visit. Turnover is the one number that beats the norm: 30.5% against a national 45.8%, meaning aides and nurses here tend to stay. The inspection record is the harder read, 47 deficiencies, three at harm or jeopardy level, three tied to abuse, and a $141,373 fine, with the most recent inspection in February 2026. All three CMS star ratings land at 2 out of 5.

Sachem Center runs on thinner nurse coverage than most homes, about 3.43 hours per resident day against a national average near 3.86, and weekends dip roughly 6% below what it manages on weekdays. Turnover is actually better than average at 38.5%, so the issue isn't retention so much as how many hands are on deck at once. The inspection record is the harder read: 43 deficiencies, four serious enough to involve harm or jeopardy, five tied to abuse, and three fines totaling $65,753, with the most recent inspection in April 2025. A for-profit limited liability company operates the 111-bed building, and its federal ratings sit at two stars across health inspections, quality measures, and staffing.

The Center At Advocate runs 190 beds in East Boston under for-profit LLC ownership, and its last inspection was June 5, 2025. Nurse staffing sits at 3.28 hours per resident day, roughly 15% under the national average of 3.86, and weekends drop about 10% below its own weekday levels. Turnover is 41.5%, actually better than the 45.8% national figure, but that's the one bright spot. The inspection record shows 66 deficiencies, seven at harm or jeopardy level and six abuse-related, with two fines totaling $69,000. A 1/5 inspection rating and 2/5 quality measures tell you where the problems concentrate.

Colony Center For Health And Rehabilitation is a 92-bed for-profit home in Abington, and the numbers here are worth sitting with before you tour. Nurse staffing runs 3.52 hours per resident day, roughly 9% below the national average, and weekends drop about 11% below the home's own weekday level, so coverage thins out exactly when families tend to visit. The inspection record shows 52 deficiencies, including 2 at the harm or jeopardy level and 4 tied to abuse, plus 2 fines totaling $25,593. Staff turnover sits at 50%, above the 45.8% national figure, which matters because consistent caregivers know residents. CMS rated its last inspection 1 out of 5 stars, with quality measures also at 1.

Cape Cod Post Acute Care in Brewster runs 135 certified beds under for-profit LLC ownership, and the numbers here deserve a close look before you decide anything. Nurse staffing sits at 3.35 hours per resident day, about 13 percent under the national average, and weekends drop roughly another 10 percent below what the home itself staffs on weekdays. Annual turnover is 50 percent, higher than the 45.8 percent national figure, and the inspection record shows 69 deficiencies, including 8 at the harm or jeopardy level and 2 tied to abuse. One fine totaling $298,483 is on file, and the most recent inspection was in May 2025. Ask about weekend coverage and turnover directly.

Oak Knoll runs 123 beds under corporate ownership, and its staffing sits just under the national average at 3.79 hours per resident day, close enough that the bigger issue is the weekends, which run about 12 percent thinner than weekdays. Turnover at 41.4 percent is actually a little better than the 45.8 percent national figure, so retention isn't the weak spot here. The inspection record is: 27 deficiencies, including two at the harm level and one tied to abuse, plus a single $211,819 fine. With quality and staffing each at two stars and the last inspection dated February 2026, the pattern is thin coverage on weekends alongside a serious citation history.

Oxford Rehabilitation & Health Care Center runs 120 beds in Haverhill under for-profit LLC ownership, and its staffing sits at 3.13 nurse hours per resident day, roughly 19% under the national average of 3.86. Weekends drop another 11% below its own weekday levels, so coverage thins out exactly when families tend to visit. The inspection record is the heavier concern: 41 deficiencies, one at harm or jeopardy level, four tied to abuse, and $265,351 in fines across two penalties. Staff turnover at 36% is actually better than the 45.8% national figure, which suggests the problem isn't retention so much as how many hands are scheduled. A February 2026 inspection is recent, so the record reflects current conditions.

Haverhill Rehabilitation and Healthcare Center runs 128 certified beds under corporate ownership, and the staffing numbers tell the clearest story. At 3.53 nurse hours per resident day, it sits about 9% under the national average of 3.86, weekend coverage drops roughly 11% below its own weekday level, and annual turnover hits 56.5% against a national 45.8%. Inspectors have logged 43 deficiencies on the current record, including two at the harm or jeopardy level and five tied to abuse, with two fines totaling $29,749. The last inspection was March 19, 2026, and CMS gives the home a single star for staffing.

Adviniacare Newburyport runs 111 certified beds under for-profit LLC ownership, and the staffing numbers are the first thing to notice. At 3.23 nurse hours per resident day, it sits about 16% under the national average of 3.86, and weekends dip roughly 8% below its own weekday levels. Turnover lands at 44.3%, close to the national 45.8%, so retention isn't the outlier here, thin daily coverage is. The inspection record carries 72 deficiencies, eight at harm or jeopardy level and four abuse-related, with five fines totaling $322,104. The last inspection was September 2025, so the record is current, not stale. A 1/5 staffing star and 2/5 quality measures tell you where the pressure shows up.

Somerset Ridge Center runs 135 certified beds under for-profit LLC ownership, and its state survey history comes out clean where it matters most, 16 deficiencies on record, but none at the harm or jeopardy level, and none abuse-related. Inspectors were last in the building in December 2025, so the picture is current. Where the numbers get less comfortable is staffing: 3.58 nurse hours per resident day sits about 7% under the national average, weekends drop roughly 14% below the home's own weekday levels, and annual turnover runs 53.7% against a national 45.8%. One fine totaling $214,420 appears on the record. The 4-star inspection rating and 2-star quality and staffing ratings tell you what kind of tradeoff you're looking at.

Harrington House runs 90 certified beds under corporate for-profit ownership, and the numbers around its nursing staff are worth your attention. Nurse staffing sits at 3.80 hours per resident day, just under the national average, but weekends drop roughly 23% below what the home staffs on weekdays, and annual turnover hits 57.9% against a national rate of 45.8%. Those two figures together mean less consistent coverage, especially when families tend to visit. The inspection record backs that up: 40 deficiencies, one serious enough to involve harm or jeopardy, two tied to abuse, and a $43,891 fine. The most recent inspection was in April 2025, so the picture is current.

Hathorne Hill runs on thinner staffing than most places, 3.67 nurse hours per resident day against a national average of 3.86, and it gets worse on weekends, when coverage drops roughly 10% below what the home itself staffs during the week. Nearly 54% of staff turned over in a year, well above the 45.8% national figure, which matters because unfamiliar caregivers miss things. The inspection history is a split picture: a recent December 2025 survey and no abuse citations, but 29 deficiencies on record, six serious enough to involve harm or jeopardy, and one fine of $242,785. A for-profit corporation owns the 120 beds. Families should ask specifically how weekend shifts are covered.
