Hillsboro House runs 33 beds under corporate ownership, and the numbers tell a mixed story. Nurse staffing sits at 3.48 hours per resident day, about 10% under the national average of 3.86, and weekends drop roughly 14% below the home's own weekday coverage, so your family member's Saturday care may look thinner than a Tuesday's. Staff turnover is 57.7%, well above the 45.8% national figure, which matters because unfamiliar aides mean less continuity for residents who need consistent hands. The health inspection record shows 16 deficiencies with no harm or abuse findings, though 17 fines totaling $97,730 have accumulated; that inspection history, paired with a recent August 2025 survey, is worth reading closely before you decide.

Crestwood Center runs 82 certified beds in Milford under for-profit LLC ownership, and the staffing numbers are the place to start. At 3.37 nurse hours per resident day, it sits about 13 percent under the national average of 3.86, and weekends dip roughly another 13 percent below its own weekday level, so coverage thins out exactly when families tend to visit. Turnover at 43.1 percent actually edges below the 45.8 percent national figure, which is one genuinely encouraging sign. Inspections are recent, from December 2025, but the record carries 13 deficiencies, including one at the harm level and one abuse-related, plus a $15,646 fine. Quality measures score well; the staffing and inspection side is where the concern sits.

Sullivan County Health Care is county-owned and carries 156 certified beds, and the county has clearly put money into nursing staff, 5.56 hours per resident day runs about 44% above the national average, with weekends dipping only slightly below weekdays. Inspections back that up: a four-star health inspection rating and a visit as recent as December 2025. The weaker signals sit elsewhere. Ten deficiencies are on the current record, including one at the harm level and two tied to abuse, plus a $16,153 fine. Annual turnover of 48.1% edges past the national 45.8%, and the two-star quality measure rating suggests resident outcomes aren't matching the staffing investment.

Keene Center runs about 3.33 nurse hours per resident day, roughly 14% under the national average of 3.86, and weekends dip another 13% below its own weekdays. That's the number I'd watch: less coverage on Saturdays and Sundays is when falls and medication issues tend to surface. Turnover sits at 33.8%, better than the 45.8% national figure, so the crew is relatively stable even if it's thin. Ten deficiencies on record, none at harm or jeopardy level and none abuse-related, with the last inspection in May 2026. Corporate for-profit ownership, mid-range marks on inspections, quality measures, and staffing alike. Nothing alarming here, but the staffing math is the thing to ask about directly.

Morrison Nursing Home runs about 3.39 nurse hours per resident day, roughly 12% under the national average, and weekends dip another 12% below its own weekday coverage. The bigger concern is its inspection record: 22 deficiencies, including 3 at the harm or jeopardy level and 4 tied to abuse, plus one $45,227 fine. CMS has placed it in the Special Focus Facility program, a designation reserved for homes with a persistent pattern of serious problems. Staff turnover at 40% is better than the 45.8% national figure, and the most recent inspection came in January 2026, so the record is current. What stands out isn't a single bad number; it's the combination of thin staffing, serious deficiency findings, and federal watch-list status together.

Woodlawn Healthcare Center in Newport runs 53 certified beds under for-profit LLC ownership, and its nurse staffing sits at 3.87 hours per resident day, essentially the national average, with weekends about 15% thinner than weekdays. Turnover is the strong spot: 39.3% against a national 45.8%, meaning fewer caregivers are walking out the door than at the typical home. The inspection record is where it gets uneven. Sixteen deficiencies are on file, none at harm or jeopardy level, but one is abuse-related, and the two-star health inspection and quality measure ratings reflect that. The last survey was February 2026, so the picture is current. Families should ask directly about that abuse citation and how weekend coverage holds up.

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.

Goffstown Nursing and Rehab Center runs 41 beds under for-profit LLC ownership, and the numbers split sharply depending on what you're measuring. Nurse staffing sits at 3.36 hours per resident per day, roughly 13% under the national average, and weekends drop about 15% below its own weekday levels, so coverage thins out exactly when families tend to visit. The health inspection record shows 34 deficiencies, three of them abuse-related, with the most recent inspection in December 2025. Quality measures score well, but that reflects clinical outcomes on paper, not the hands-on staffing or the inspection history. Ask about weekend coverage and how those abuse-related citations were resolved before you decide.

Pheasant Wood Center runs 99 certified beds in Peterborough under corporate for-profit ownership, and the staffing numbers are where your attention should go first. At 3.25 nurse hours per resident day, it sits roughly 16 percent under the national average of 3.86, and weekends dip another 10 percent below its own weekday coverage, so the thinnest shifts land when families tend to visit. Turnover is the brighter spot: 35.8 percent against a national 45.8 percent, meaning aides and nurses stick around longer than is typical. The inspection record shows 21 deficiencies, none at harm or jeopardy level, but two tied to abuse, and CMS rated the last inspection two stars. Quality measures scored well; staffing and inspections did not.

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.

Maple Leaf runs lean on nursing hours: 2.91 per resident day against a national average of 3.86, roughly a quarter below. Weekend coverage dips about 8% below its own weekday level, so the thinnest shifts come when families tend to visit. Turnover sits at 40.4%, a bit better than the 45.8% national figure. The inspection record is the strongest part of the picture, a recent March 2026 survey, seven deficiencies, none at harm or jeopardy level and none abuse-related. A for-profit LLC operates its 114 beds. What you'd want to weigh is whether that staffing level matches what your relative needs, especially on weekends.

Elm Wood Center runs 68 beds under corporate ownership, and its staffing is the number to sit with: 3.18 nurse hours per resident day against a national average of 3.86, roughly 18 percent below. Weekends dip about 11 percent below its own weekday coverage, and 51 percent of staff turned over in the past year, above the 45.8 percent national figure, so the people on the floor keep changing. The health inspection record shows 29 deficiencies, none at harm or jeopardy level, but one tied to abuse. State inspectors were last in on August 1, 2025. Quality measures score well; staffing and inspections don't.

The inspection record is where the concern concentrates: 14 deficiencies, including one at the harm or jeopardy level and one abuse-related, with a $15,646 fine and a 2/5 health inspection star, though the most recent inspection was in February 2026. Staffing scores 4/5 by CMS's own measure, quality measures 3/5.

Harris Hill Center runs about 12% thinner on nursing hours than the national average, and weekends get thinner still, roughly 14% below what the home staffs on weekdays. That gap matters most on Saturdays and Sundays, when families often visit and problems can sit longer. Annual turnover of 50.7% means more than half the nursing staff leaves each year, against a national rate near 46%. Sixteen deficiencies sit on the current record, one serious enough to involve harm or jeopardy, though none are abuse-related; the single fine totals $15,646. The last inspection was in April 2026, so the record is reasonably fresh. Corporate for-profit ownership, 85 beds, and a staffing rating reflecting those numbers.

Weekends dip about 7% below the home's own weekday staffing, so coverage thins exactly when families tend to visit. Turnover sits at 45.1%, essentially matching the national rate. The inspection record shows 20 deficiencies, none at harm or jeopardy level, though four are abuse-related, a category worth asking about directly. The last inspection was April 2026, so the record is current. CMS gives 3 stars for health inspections, 2 for quality measures, and 4 for staffing. The staffing number looks strong on paper, but the quality measure score and those abuse citations are what pull the overall picture down.

Rochester Manor runs a 108-bed operation as a for-profit LLC, and nurse staffing sits around 3.2 hours per resident day, roughly 17% below the national figure, with weekends dropping another 12% below its own weekday coverage. Turnover runs lower than the national average, which helps, but the inspection record is the real concern: 15 deficiencies, including one at the harm level and three tied to abuse. The most recent inspection came in June 2025. All three CMS star categories land at 2 out of 5. If you're weighing this one, ask specifically about weekend nurse coverage and how the abuse-related findings were resolved.

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.

Jaffrey Rehabilitation and Nursing Center runs on thinner nurse staffing than most homes nationally, about 3.41 hours per resident day against a 3.86 average, and weekends dip roughly 6% below its own weekday level, so coverage is lightest exactly when families tend to visit. The inspection record is the bigger concern: 21 deficiencies, one of them abuse-related, and the most recent inspection was May 2026. Turnover at 39.7% is actually better than the 45.8% national figure, which tells you something is keeping some staff around. With 83 beds under individual for-profit ownership, this is a home where the staffing and inspection numbers deserve a hard look before you decide.

Birch Healthcare Center runs about 3.52 nursing hours per resident day, roughly 9% under the national average, and weekends dip another 7% below its own weekday numbers. That thin coverage shows up in its staffing rating, and turnover sits at 47.6%, a bit above the national rate, so the aides and nurses working these shifts keep changing. Inspections tell a mixed story: ten deficiencies on record, including one involving actual harm and one abuse-related, plus a $10,655 fine, though the most recent inspection came in September 2025 and the quality measures score well above average. It's a for-profit limited liability company with 79 beds.
