Every Medicare-certified nursing home in New Jersey, graded on inspections, staffing, turnover
and enforcement history.
12 homes in the state sit in the federal Special Focus programme.
Aristacare At Cherry Hill runs 140 beds under for-profit LLC ownership, and its staffing numbers sit below where they should be. Nurses provide 3.35 hours per resident day against a national average of 3.86, and weekends drop roughly 12% below the home's own weekday coverage. Annual turnover hits 66.7%, well above the 45.8% national figure, which means the people caring for residents are frequently new or on their way out.
The inspection record is the harder read: 53 deficiencies, including six tied to abuse, and a one-star health inspection rating. Quality measures score well at five stars, but stable, adequate staffing is what keeps those numbers from slipping. A recent August 2025 inspection means the state has been watching closely.
Rolling Hills Care Center is a 67-bed for-profit in Lebanon, and the numbers pull in different directions. The health inspection record is the weak spot, a one-star rating, 25 deficiencies with two at the harm level, and $43,001 in fines across two penalties, though nothing abuse-related. Staffing sits at 3.37 nurse hours per resident day, roughly 13% under the national average, and weekends run about 5% thinner than weekdays. Turnover is the bright spot: 39.6%, better than the 45.8% national figure, which matters for consistency of care. Quality measures score well, but that inspection history from February 2025 is the thing to ask about directly.
Tallwoods Care Center runs 180 certified beds in Bayville under corporate for-profit ownership, and its nurse staffing sits at 3.31 hours per resident day, roughly 14% under the national average of 3.86. Weekends are thinner still, running about 15% below the home's own weekday coverage, which matters most when families visit and when residents need help between therapy and meals. Staff turnover is 49.6% against a national 45.8%, so many of the people caring for residents are still learning the building. The inspection record shows 18 deficiencies, including one at the harm or jeopardy level and two tied to abuse, plus a single $13,452 fine. The most recent inspection was November 26, 2025.
Excel Care At Egg Harbor runs on 3.53 nurse hours per resident day, about 9% under the national average of 3.86, and weekend coverage drops roughly another 10% below its own weekday level. That thinner weekend presence matters, because the home's 70.8% annual staff turnover is well above the national 45.8%, a resident's regular aide is likelier than not to change within the year. The current record shows 21 deficiencies, including one at the harm level and one abuse-related, plus a single $18,119 fine. The last inspection was January 31, 2025. Its quality measure scores look strong, but those come from reported data; the staffing and inspection numbers describe what families actually encounter day to day.
Spring Hills Post Acute Hamilton runs 55 beds under corporate ownership, and its staffing numbers tell two stories. The 4.48 nurse hours per resident day sits well above the national average, but weekends drop about 12% below the home's own weekday coverage, and turnover hits 62.3% against a national 45.8%. Inspections are the bigger concern: 28 deficiencies on the current record, including one at harm or jeopardy level and two abuse-related, drawing a $11,175 fine and a 2/5 health inspection rating. Quality measures score 5/5, but that's the one bright spot in a record that most recently drew scrutiny in February 2025.
Complete Care at Chestnut Hill is a for-profit LLC home with 111 beds in Passaic, and its numbers tell a mixed but mostly concerning story. Nurse staffing sits at 3.23 hours per resident day, roughly 16% below the national average, and weekends run about 14% lighter than weekdays, which matters because that's when families often visit and when coverage gaps show. The health inspection record is where things get serious: 27 deficiencies, including 3 at the harm or jeopardy level and 2 tied to abuse, plus one fine of $41,688. Annual turnover of 41.8% is slightly better than the national average, and the quality measure score is strong, but a 1-out-of-5 inspection rating and thin staffing are hard to look past.
Avalon Rehabilitation and Healthcare Center runs 180 beds in Hamilton, and the numbers show a home stretched thin on care. Nurse staffing sits at 3.08 hours per resident day, about a fifth below the national average, and weekends get roughly 7% less coverage than weekdays, which matters when families visit and needs don't pause. The inspection record is the bigger concern: 37 deficiencies, five serious enough to put residents in harm's way, four tied to abuse, and $83,544 in fines across five penalties, all from a single-star health inspection history that was last reviewed in December 2025. Turnover at 31.6% is actually better than the national 45.8%, so some staff clearly stay, but lower turnover hasn't translated into safer care here.
Warren Haven runs about 3.12 nurse hours per resident per day, roughly 19 percent under the national average of 3.86, and weekends dip another 14 percent below its own weekday coverage. That thin staffing shows up in the numbers: 52.2 percent annual turnover against a national 45.8, and 19 deficiencies on the current record, including two at harm or jeopardy level and four tied to abuse. The health inspection rating sits at 2 out of 5, and there's one fine on file for $156,485. What the quality measure score of 5 out of 5 reflects is how residents are faring on paper, not whether enough hands are there to care for them.
Atlas Rehabilitation and Healthcare at Washington runs 120 beds under for-profit LLC ownership, and the numbers tell a mixed story. Nurse staffing sits at 3.80 hours per resident day, just under the national average of 3.86, but weekends drop roughly 8% below the home's own weekday coverage, worth asking about if your family visits Saturday or Sunday. Annual turnover of 51.4% tops the national 45.8%, so expect some unfamiliar faces. The health inspection record shows 22 deficiencies, one serious enough to reach harm or jeopardy level, plus two fines totaling $43,947; the last inspection was September 2024. Quality measures score well, but staffing and inspection results are where the concerns sit.
The Health Center at Galloway runs 120 certified beds under for-profit LLC ownership, and its nurse staffing sits at 3.54 hours per resident day, roughly 8% under the national average of 3.86, with weekends dipping about 8% below its own weekday levels. That thinner coverage compounds a 50% annual turnover rate, meaning half the nursing staff leaves each year, against a national average closer to 46%. Its current inspection record carries 26 deficiencies, including one at the harm or jeopardy level and one tied to abuse, plus a single fine of $76,958. Quality measures score well, but the health inspection and staffing ratings both sit at 2 out of 5, and that gap between good numbers on paper and thin coverage on the floor is the part worth weighing.
King Manor runs lean on the people who actually care for residents. At 2.92 nurse staffing hours per resident day, it sits roughly a quarter below the national average of 3.86, and weekends dip about 15% below its own weekday level, so your Sunday afternoon visit may look different from a Tuesday morning. Staff turnover runs 53.8%, higher than the 45.8% national figure, which means the aides and nurses who know your family member are likelier to leave within the year. The 13 deficiencies on record include none at the harm or jeopardy level, and the last inspection was October 2024. Inspection and quality scores hold up; staffing is where the gaps show.
Complete Care At Holiday City runs on thinner nursing coverage than most places, 3.09 hours per resident day against a national average of 3.86, with weekends dipping about 8% below its own weekday numbers. That gap shows up in the federal staffing rating, which sits at the bottom of the scale. Turnover is the other number worth sitting with: 59.7% annually, well above the 45.8% national average, meaning the people caring for residents are often new to the building. Nineteen deficiencies are on the current record, including one at the harm level and one tied to abuse. The five-star quality measure rating reflects how residents are doing on paper, but it doesn't offset thin staffing or a recent inspection finding harm.
Family Of Caring At Park Ridge is a 210-bed for-profit home in Bergen County, and the numbers split in two directions. The care side looks decent on paper, four out of five stars on CMS quality measures, but that's where the good news mostly stops. Nurse staffing runs 3.27 hours per resident day, roughly 15% under the national average, and it thins out further on weekends. Staff turnover sits at 52.7%, well above the 45.8% national figure, which means the people showing up to care for residents are often new to the building. Then there's the inspection record: 31 deficiencies, two serious enough to involve harm or jeopardy, and a $133,120 fine. The most recent inspection was January 2025, so this is current, not stale history. Worth asking hard questions before you decide.
Complete Care At Milford Manor is a 120-bed for-profit in West Milford, and the numbers split in two directions. The clinical quality measure rating sits at 4 out of 5, so residents' documented care outcomes look better than average. Staffing is where it struggles: 2.97 nurse hours per resident day against a national average of 3.86, weekend coverage running about 18% under its own weekday levels, and turnover at 53.6%, well above the 45.8% national figure. The record shows 26 deficiencies, one serious enough to involve harm or jeopardy, though none abuse-related and fines total just $3,595. The most recent inspection was March 2025, so the picture is current. Ask about weekend and evening coverage specifically when you visit.
Complete Care at Brick runs 137 beds under a for-profit limited liability company, and the staffing numbers are the first thing worth noticing. Nurses provide 3.54 hours per resident day, roughly 8% under the national average of 3.86, and weekends drop about 9% below the home's own weekday coverage. Annual turnover sits at 71.9% against a national average of 45.8%, most of the people caring for your family member are new, or will be soon.
The record shows 30 deficiencies, none at the harm or jeopardy level and none abuse-related, with the most recent inspection in September 2025. Quality measures score well. The gap is staffing: consistently thin coverage, thinning further on weekends, sustained by a workforce that keeps leaving.
Complete Care At Wayne Hills runs 120 beds in Wayne under for-profit LLC ownership, and its nurse staffing sits at 3.36 hours per resident day, roughly 13 percent under the national average, with weekends dropping about 9 percent below its own weekday levels. The inspection record is the bigger problem: 34 deficiencies, including 2 at the harm or jeopardy level and 5 tied to abuse, plus two fines totaling $42,630. Staff turnover of 35.1 percent actually beats the national 45.8 percent, so retention isn't the issue here. The last inspection was recent, in December 2025, which means those findings are current, not stale.
Atlantic Coast Rehab & Health runs 160 beds in Lakewood under for-profit LLC ownership, and its record shows two very different stories. The staffing side is mixed: 3.13 nurse hours per resident day sits about 19% under the national average, and weekends dip roughly 8% below its own weekday levels, but turnover at 35.7% actually beats the national 45.8%, which suggests people who take jobs here tend to stay. The trouble is everything else. Inspectors have cited 20 deficiencies, including one at harm or jeopardy level and two tied to abuse, with a $101,112 fine on record and a February 2025 inspection that left the health and quality ratings at the bottom of the scale.
Mount Holly Rehabilitation & Healthcare Center runs 180 certified beds in Lumberton under for-profit LLC ownership, and its nurses provide about 3.43 hours of care per resident each day, roughly 11 percent below the national average of 3.86. Weekends get thinner still, with staffing about 7 percent under its own weekday level, while annual turnover sits at 44.9 percent, close to the national 45.8 percent. The current record carries 32 deficiencies, including five at the harm or jeopardy level and two tied to abuse, and the most recent inspection was February 7, 2025. Its quality measure score is strong; the health inspection score is not, and that gap is worth asking about directly.
Bridgeway Care and Rehab Center at Bridgewater runs 151 certified beds under corporate ownership, and its nurse staffing sits at 3.99 hours per resident day, a bit above the national average of 3.86, though weekends drop roughly 12% below what the home staffs on weekdays. Turnover is 45.3%, essentially in line with the national figure. The current inspection record shows 11 deficiencies, including 2 at the harm or jeopardy level and 2 tied to abuse, with one fine of $7,901. The most recent inspection was March 31, 2025, so the picture is current. A 4-star health inspection rating and 4-star staffing rating sit alongside a 3-star quality measure rating, which is where the mixed signals come from.
Mountainside Skilled Nursing and Rehab runs 151 certified beds under for-profit LLC ownership, and its numbers pull in two directions. The health inspection side is the weak spot: a 2-out-of-5 federal rating, 32 deficiencies on the current record, including three tied to abuse, though none rose to actual harm or jeopardy, and the last inspection was recent, in March 2025. Staffing sits at 3.67 nurse hours per resident day, roughly 5 percent under the national figure, and weekends run about 11 percent thinner than weekdays. What keeps the overall picture up is retention, 33 percent turnover against a 45.8 percent national rate, and strong quality measures.
