Southern Ocean Center runs 3.56 nurse hours per resident day, roughly 8% under the national average, and weekends dip about 7% below its own weekday staffing. Turnover sits at 35%, noticeably better than the 45.8% national figure. The current record shows 32 deficiencies, none at harm or jeopardy level, though three are abuse-related, worth asking about directly. Inspectors were last on site in September 2025. Quality measures score 5/5, staffing 4/5, health inspections 3/5. What that adds up to: genuinely strong clinical outcomes and steadier-than-average retention, with room to push staffing hours higher and a paper trail that deserves a hard look before you sign anything.

Staffing at Gardens At Monroe runs about 4% above the national average, and the 20.3% turnover rate is less than half the norm, that kind of stability matters when aides and nurses stick around. Weekend coverage dips roughly 9% below weekdays, worth knowing if your visits fall on Saturdays or Sundays. The current record shows 18 deficiencies, none at the harm level, though three are abuse-related, which is the number I'd ask about directly. The last inspection was April 2025, so the picture is recent. A for-profit individual owner, 136 beds, strong quality scores but a middle-of-the-road inspection history.

Optima Care Castle Hill runs 215 beds in Union City under for-profit LLC ownership, and its staffing sits around 3.60 nurse hours per resident day, roughly 7% under the national average, with weekends dropping about 9% below its own weekday levels. Turnover at 42.2% is actually a touch better than the national 45.8%. What stands out is the inspection record: 32 deficiencies, including one at harm or jeopardy level and three tied to abuse, with a $8,281 fine and a visit as recent as March 2025. The quality measure score looks strong on paper, but that inspection history is the number a family should ask about directly.

The Health Center at Bloomingdale runs leaner than most on nursing hours, 3.40 per resident per day against a national average of 3.86, and weekends dip roughly 8% below its own weekday coverage. Turnover sits at 41.6%, a bit better than the 45.8% national figure, though still meaning roughly two in five staff leaving in a year. Inspections tell a steadier story: 28 deficiencies on record but none at the harm or jeopardy level, and the last visit was recent, in August 2025. One abuse-related citation is worth asking about directly. The home is corporate-owned and for-profit, with 120 certified beds.

Livia Health and Senior Living runs about 4.63 nurse hours per resident day, roughly 20% above the national average, and its staff turnover of 38.5% actually beats the national 45.8%, meaning workers here tend to stick around longer than at the typical home. The catch is what inspectors have logged. Sixteen deficiencies sit on the current record, two of them serious enough to involve harm or jeopardy, plus one tied to abuse, and a $24,850 fine. CMS gives it strong marks for quality measures and inspections, but that paperwork tells a different story than the staffing numbers alone. Weekend coverage also dips about 6% below weekday levels, so the care you see on a Tuesday may not match a Saturday.

Family Of Caring At Teaneck runs 107 beds under corporate ownership, and its staffing numbers land just under the national mark, 3.70 nurse hours per resident day against 3.86, with weekends about 13% thinner than weekdays. That gap matters more than the headline figure, since care doesn't pause on Saturdays. Turnover sits at 30.4%, well below the 45.8% national average, which suggests a steadier workforce than most. Inspections in December 2025 turned up 18 deficiencies, none at harm or jeopardy level, though one was abuse-related. All three CMS star categories, health inspection, quality measures, and staffing, come in at 4 out of 5.

The Manor in Freehold runs on 4.14 nurse hours per resident per day, about 7% above the national average, and its staff tends to stay, 23.9% annual turnover against a national rate near 46%. Weekend coverage dips roughly 12% below its own weekday levels, which is worth asking about if your family visits mainly on Saturdays and Sundays. Its record shows 8 deficiencies, none at the harm or jeopardy level and none abuse-related, with a June 2025 inspection. Nonprofit ownership under a corporation, four stars on health inspections, quality measures, and staffing alike. Solid, not spotless, the kind of home where the numbers hold up.

Majestic Center runs 120 beds in Camden under individual for-profit ownership, and its staffing numbers are right at the national mark, 3.85 nurse hours per resident day against 3.86 nationally, with weekend coverage dipping about 11% below its own weekdays. Turnover sits at 38.3%, better than the 45.8% national figure, so the same faces are more likely to stay. What pulls the record down is the inspection side: 16 deficiencies on file, four of them serious enough to put residents in harm's way and two tied to abuse, plus $260,470 in fines across two cases. The most recent inspection closed in December 2025, so the picture is current.

Complete Care At Woodlands runs a tight ship on retention, 31.6% turnover is well under the 45.8% national figure, which matters because caregivers who stay know the residents. The tradeoff shows up in raw coverage: 3.59 nurse hours per resident day lands about 7% under the national average, and weekends dip roughly 5% below the home's own weekday staffing. Its inspection record is clean where it counts, with 16 deficiencies on file but none involving harm or abuse, and a July 2025 inspection keeps that picture current. For a 120-bed corporate-owned home, the quality measures score and the absence of harm-level findings suggest decent care, just ask how the weekend shift is covered before you decide.

Regency Heritage runs on 3.42 nurse hours per resident day, about 11 percent below the national average, and weekend coverage dips roughly 7 percent under its own weekday level, so the thinnest shifts land when families tend to visit. Turnover sits at 42.6 percent, slightly better than the 45.8 percent national figure, which suggests staff aren't cycling through quite as fast as at many for-profit peers. The inspection record is the stronger part of the story: 11 deficiencies, none at harm or jeopardy level, none abuse-related, and a survey completed in June 2025. Owned by an individual for profit, it's a large 265-bed building whose quality and inspection ratings hold up better than its staffing numbers do.

Family Of Caring Healthcare at Montclair runs 70 certified beds under for-profit LLC ownership, and its nurse staffing sits at 4.11 hours per resident day, about 6% above the national average of 3.86. That edge matters, though weekends run roughly 10% thinner than weekdays, so coverage isn't perfectly flat across the week. Staff turnover lands at 32.2%, well below the 45.8% national figure, which suggests a steadier workforce than most homes manage. The current record shows 15 deficiencies, none at the harm or jeopardy level and none abuse-related, with the most recent inspection dated April 30, 2025. All three CMS star ratings, health inspection, quality measures, and staffing, come in at 4 out of 5.

Spring Grove runs 106 beds in New Providence, owned by a limited liability company, and its nurse staffing sits at 3.56 hours per resident day, roughly 8% under the national average, with weekends about 6% thinner than weekdays. Turnover is where it looks better than most: 29.5% against a national 45.8%, so the aides and nurses who are there tend to stay. The tradeoff shows up in its inspection record: 32 deficiencies, including one at the harm level and one abuse-related, a $10,527 fine, and a 2-star health inspection rating, though the last inspection was recent, in March 2026. Its quality measure scores are strong, but those come from resident data, not from how the building is run day to day.

Elmora Hills runs about 3.47 nurse hours per resident day, roughly 10% under the national average of 3.86, and weekends are thinner still, about 8% below its own weekday staffing. The tradeoff is retention: turnover sits at 27.9%, well under the national 45.8%, so the aides and nurses here tend to stick around. Inspections look solid, a 4-star health inspection rating, a 5 on quality measures, and its last survey was December 12, 2025. The 28 deficiencies on record include one abuse-related citation, though none rose to actual harm or jeopardy. This is a for-profit, 200-bed home that's recently inspected, well-rated on care quality, and slightly light on daily staffing hours.

Birchwood runs 200 certified beds in Cranford under for-profit LLC ownership, and the staffing numbers are the main thing to know. At 3.35 nurse hours per resident day, it sits about 13% under the national average of 3.86, and weekends dip roughly 10% below its own weekday levels, so coverage is thinnest exactly when families tend to visit. Turnover, though, is a genuine bright spot at 30.3% against a national 45.8%, which suggests people stay. The current record shows 25 deficiencies, none at harm or jeopardy level and none abuse-related, with a recent inspection in December 2025. Good inspection and quality scores; the staffing gap is what pulls it down.

Careone at Holmdel runs 130 beds under corporate ownership, and its strongest card is stability: staff turnover sits at 15.4% against a national average of 45.8%, which means the people caring for residents tend to stick around. That matters more than the raw staffing number, which is 3.73 hours per resident day, roughly 3% under the national average, and weekends run about 11% thinner than weekdays, so ask how coverage holds up on a Saturday. The inspection record shows 19 deficiencies, three tied to abuse, though none rose to harm or jeopardy level, and the most recent visit was July 2025. Quality measures and inspections both score well; staffing is the softer spot.

Waterfront Rehabilitation runs 2.97 nurse staffing hours per resident day, about 23 percent below the national average of 3.86, and weekends dip roughly 6 percent below its own weekday levels. Turnover sits at 34.3 percent, better than the 45.8 percent national figure, and the home carries 28 deficiencies, none at harm or jeopardy level but one tied to abuse. A recent inspection in November 2025 and strong marks on quality measures round out a picture where care outcomes look solid even as daily staffing runs thin.

Grove Park runs 185 beds in East Orange under individual for-profit ownership, and the numbers pull in different directions. Nurse staffing sits at 3.36 hours per resident day, roughly 13 percent under the national average, and weekends drop about 10 percent below the home's own weekday levels. Turnover is 31.7 percent, which is actually better than the 45.8 percent national figure, so the people who stay seem to stay. The trouble is inspection history: 31 deficiencies on the current record, one at harm or jeopardy level, two tied to abuse, and a $50,642 fine. A February 2026 inspection is recent, and the quality measure score is strong, but staffing shortfalls on weekends plus that deficiency count are what hold this one back.

AristaCare at Cedar Oaks runs 230 beds in South Plainfield, and the nurse staffing works out to about 3.21 hours per resident day, roughly 17 percent under the national average of 3.86. Weekends dip another 10 percent below its own weekday level, so coverage thins out exactly when families tend to visit. What stands out is the inspection record: 20 deficiencies, two of them serious enough to put residents in harm's way and one tied to abuse, with the most recent inspection in November 2024. The quality measure stars look strong on paper, but a survey history like this is the part worth asking about directly.

Lakeland Nursing & Rehab runs 201 beds in Haskell, and the numbers tell a mixed story. Nurse staffing sits at 3.51 hours per resident day, roughly 9% under the national average, and weekends run about 9% thinner than weekdays, so coverage gets tightest exactly when families tend to visit. Turnover is the bright spot: 24.7% against a national 45.8%, meaning aides and nurses largely stick around, which matters for residents who need consistent hands. But the inspection record carries 23 deficiencies, including one at the harm level and five tied to abuse, and the last full inspection was September 2022, nearly three years ago. Strong quality measures and stable staff, weighed against thin weekend coverage and a dated, serious citation history.

South Mountain Hc runs 195 certified beds in Vauxhall under for-profit LLC ownership, and its staffing sits at 3.76 nurse hours per resident day, about 3% under the national average, with weekends running roughly 8% lighter than its own weekdays. Turnover is the standout number here: 23.4% against a national average of 45.8%, so the workforce is unusually stable for this sector. The inspection record is where the caution sits: 22 deficiencies on file, one of them abuse-related, none rising to harm or jeopardy, and the most recent visit was August 25, 2025. State surveyors gave two stars for health inspections, while quality measures came in at five.
