Webster At Rye

Nurse hours

Staff turnover
46%

0

Webster At Rye runs on more nurse time than most places, 4.58 hours per resident day against a national average of 3.86, roughly 19% more. Weekend coverage dips about 8% below its own weekday pace, so ask how that plays out on a Saturday. Staff turnover sits at 45.5%, almost exactly the national figure, which tells you this isn't a home bleeding caregivers out the door. Its eight deficiencies include nothing at the harm or jeopardy level and nothing abuse-related, and the last inspection was recent, in August 2025. A nonprofit corporation owns the 61-bed building, which matters for where any surplus goes.

Pleasant Valley Nursing And Rehab Center

Staff turnover

Pleasant Valley runs leaner on nursing hours than the typical U.S. home, about 3.47 hours per resident day against a national average of 3.86, and weekends dip roughly 15% below what the building staffs on weekdays. Turnover sits at 43.2%, which is actually a touch better than the national 45.8%, so the staffing picture isn't as shaky as the raw hours suggest. On inspections, the record is clean where it counts: 16 deficiencies logged, but none at the harm or jeopardy level and none abuse-related, with a recent January 2026 survey. A for-profit LLC operates it. What the numbers support is a home that's been kept in reasonable order, with thinner coverage on weekends worth asking about directly.

Salemhaven

Salem, NH · Rockingham County

CMS 2/5110 bedsNon-profitMedicaid
Nurse hours
3.89 /day
Staff turnover
42%
Serious cites
0

Salemhaven runs a nonprofit home with 110 beds, and its nurse staffing sits right at the national mark, 3.89 hours per resident day against 3.86, though weekends thin out by about 15% compared to weekdays, which is worth asking about if your family visits or calls on Saturdays and Sundays. Staff turnover is 42.4%, a bit better than the 45.8% national figure, so caregivers tend to stick around longer than average. The health inspection side is the weak spot: a 2-out-of-5 rating, 14 deficiencies on record including one abuse-related citation, though none rose to actual harm or jeopardy. The most recent inspection was August 2025, so the picture is current.

Warde Health Center

Windham, NH · Rockingham County

Nurse hours

Staff turnover
47%

Warde Health Center is a small nonprofit home in Windham, 32 beds, and its inspection record is the strongest thing it has going. Three deficiencies on file, none of them causing harm or involving abuse, and a five-star health inspection rating from CMS. Staffing sits at 4.42 nurse hours per resident day, roughly 14% above the national average, though weekends run about 8% thinner than weekdays, so ask how that gap gets covered. Turnover is 46.7%, just a hair above the national 45.8%, not alarming, but worth asking about. Quality measures land mid-range at three stars. With a March 2026 inspection, the record is recent.

Rockingham County Nursing Home

Nurse hours

Staff turnover
56%
Serious cites
0

Rockingham County Nursing Home runs on county government money, and the staffing numbers show it: 4.84 nurse hours per resident day, roughly a quarter more than the national average. That's the kind of margin that matters on a Tuesday afternoon when someone needs help getting to the bathroom. The tradeoffs are real, though. Weekend coverage drops about 11% from weekday levels, and 56.3% annual turnover means a good share of the people providing that care are still learning the building. Four deficiencies on the current record, none involving harm or abuse, with an inspection as recent as August 2025. The quality measure score sits at 2 out of 5, so clinical outcomes don't track as well as the raw staffing strength suggests.

Riverwoods At Exeter is an eight-bed nonprofit home, and that small scale shows in its record. Four deficiencies on file with none at the harm level and nothing abuse-related is a clean sheet by federal standards, and the most recent inspection came in March 2026, so you're looking at recent information rather than a stale survey. Quality measures score at the top of CMS's five-point scale, which speaks to how residents are actually doing day to day. The one number worth asking about is staffing: with only eight beds, coverage depends on a small crew, so find out who's on overnight and what happens when someone calls out.

Cedar Healthcare Center

Cedar Healthcare Center runs 102 beds in Portsmouth under limited liability company ownership, and its inspection record is genuinely strong, a five-star health inspection rating with just seven deficiencies on file, none at the harm or jeopardy level and none tied to abuse. The catch sits in the staffing numbers. At 3.54 nurse hours per resident day, it runs about 8% under the national average of 3.86, and weekend coverage dips roughly 3% below its own weekday levels, which is the kind of gap families notice on Saturday afternoons. Annual turnover of 44.7% lands just under the national average, neither a red flag nor a strength. The most recent inspection was June 26, 2025.

Edgewood Centre runs 156 certified beds in Portsmouth under for-profit corporate ownership, and its nurse staffing sits at 3.46 hours per resident day, roughly 10 percent under the national average of 3.86. Weekends dip about 6 percent below the home's own weekday levels, so coverage thins out right when families tend to visit. Staff turnover lands at 46.2 percent, essentially matching the national rate of 45.8 percent, meaning nearly half the nursing team turns over in a year. The current record shows 14 deficiencies, none at the harm or jeopardy level and none abuse-related, with the last inspection in June 2025. Federal ratings put staffing at 2 out of 5 stars, with inspection and quality measures at 3 each.

Oceanside Skilled Nursing and Rehabilitation runs 117 certified beds in Hampton under corporate for-profit ownership, and its nurse staffing sits at 3.15 hours per resident day, roughly 19 percent under the national average of 3.86. Weekends drop about 13 percent below what the home itself staffs on weekdays, so coverage thins out right when families tend to visit. Turnover is the bright spot at 23.7 percent, well under the 45.8 percent national figure. What offsets that is the inspection record: 17 deficiencies, one serious enough to reach harm or jeopardy level, and a single $14,521 fine. The most recent inspection was January 29, 2026.

Colonial Poplin Nursing Home

Fremont, NH · Rockingham County

Nurse hours

Staff turnover
62%

Colonial Poplin runs a 50-bed for-profit home in Fremont, and the inspection record is genuinely its strong suit: a four-star health inspection rating, only two deficiencies on file, none of them involving harm or abuse, and a survey completed just this April. Staffing is where the picture shifts. At 3.63 nurse hours per resident day, it sits about 6 percent under the national average, and weekends drop roughly 11 percent below its own weekday coverage. Annual turnover of 61.5 percent is well above the 45.8 percent national figure, which means the people caring for residents keep changing. For a family weighing a visit, ask how the weekend shift is actually covered.

Derry Center For Rehabilitation And Healthcare

Derry, NH · Rockingham County

Staff turnover

Derry Center for Rehabilitation and Healthcare runs 62 certified beds in Derry, under for-profit individual ownership. Its nurse staffing sits at 3.12 hours per resident day, roughly 19 percent under the national average of 3.86, that gap is the main thing driving its lowest CMS star rating. Weekends thin out further, about 13 percent below its own weekday level, so coverage is lightest exactly when families tend to visit. Turnover lands at 41.5 percent, a bit better than the 45.8 percent national figure, so the people who stay appear to stick around. The home carries 12 deficiencies on its current record, none at harm or jeopardy level and none abuse-related, and its last inspection was December 11, 2025.

Exeter Center

Exeter, NH · Rockingham County

CMS 3/581 bedsFor-profitMedicaid
Nurse hours
3.39 /day
Staff turnover
49%
Serious cites

Exeter Center runs 81 certified beds under corporate for-profit ownership, and the staffing numbers are where your attention should go first. At 3.39 nurse hours per resident day, it sits about 12% under the national average of 3.86, and weekends dip roughly 7% below its own weekday coverage. That thinner weekend schedule matters because nurse turnover is 49.2%, higher than the 45.8% national figure, so familiar faces are harder to count on. The inspection record shows 12 deficiencies, one serious enough to involve harm or jeopardy, plus a single fine of $28,912. No abuse-related citations appear. Its last inspection was April 30, 2026, so the record is current. Nothing here is alarming on its own, but the staffing shortfall and turnover together are the pattern worth asking about directly.
