Civita Care Center At West River runs 120 certified beds under for-profit LLC ownership, and its nurse staffing sits at 3.61 hours per resident day, about 6% under the national average of 3.86. Weekend coverage drops roughly 13% below its own weekday level, so families should ask how that gap gets managed. Turnover is the bright spot: 30.6% against a national 45.8%, which suggests a steadier workforce than most. The inspection record shows 26 deficiencies, none at harm or jeopardy level and none abuse-related, with the most recent visit in January 2025. Quality measures score well; staffing and health inspections land mid-range.

Abuse icon on record

Civita Care Center At Milford runs 120 beds under for-profit LLC ownership, and its staffing sits at 3.60 nurse hours per resident day, roughly 7% under the national average of 3.86, with weekends dropping about 15% below its own weekday levels. That gap matters most on Saturdays and Sundays, when families often visit and needs don't pause. Turnover runs 40.9%, slightly better than the 45.8% national figure, so there's some continuity in the workforce. But the inspection record is the harder read: 59 deficiencies on file, including 8 tied to abuse and 2 at harm or jeopardy level, with one fine of $14,433. The most recent inspection was December 2024.

Abuse icon on record

Civita Care Center At Cheshire runs 120 beds under for-profit LLC ownership, and its inspection record is the main thing to know: 51 deficiencies on the current record, including one at the harm or jeopardy level and seven tied to abuse. The last inspection was January 15, 2025, so that record is recent, not stale. Nurse staffing sits at 3.58 hours per resident day, roughly 7% under the national average of 3.86, and weekends run about 8% thinner than weekdays. Turnover is the bright spot at 30.8%, well below the 45.8% national figure, which suggests a steadier workforce than many homes. The staffing star rating reflects that relative stability, but thin weekend coverage plus the abuse-related findings are what pull the overall picture down.

Abuse icon on record

Civita Care Center at Danbury runs 3.39 total nurse hours per resident day, roughly 12 percent under the national average, and weekend coverage drops about 13 percent below what it manages on weekdays. That pattern matters because shortfalls tend to show up when families visit and when residents need someone quickly. Its record carries 46 deficiencies, including one at the harm level and four tied to abuse, along with a $9,110 fine. All three CMS star ratings, health inspections, quality measures, staffing, sit at 2 out of 5. The last inspection was May 7, 2025, so the picture is current rather than stale. For-profit individual ownership, 180 beds. If you're weighing this one, ask directly how weekends are staffed and what the abuse-related citations involved.

Civita Care Center At Long Ridge runs 120 beds under for-profit LLC ownership, and its staffing picture is mixed in a way worth understanding. Total nurse coverage sits at 3.76 hours per resident day, roughly 3% under the national average, and weekends drop about 11% below the home's own weekday levels, so the hours thin out exactly when families tend to visit. Turnover is the bright spot: 24.7% against a national 45.8%, which suggests a more stable crew than most places. The inspection record is the concern: 28 deficiencies, four tied to abuse, though none reached harm or jeopardy level. The most recent inspection was July 2025.

Abuse icon on record

Civita Care Center At Newington runs on 3.12 nursing hours per resident per day, about 19% under the national average, and weekend coverage dips roughly 8% below its own weekday level. The current record carries 57 deficiencies, six of them at harm or jeopardy level, four tied to abuse, plus four fines totaling $120,238. Staff turnover sits at 49.3%, above the national 45.8%. Ownership is a for-profit limited liability company across 180 beds, and its last inspection was November 2025. When a home is cited this often for harm-level and abuse-related problems while staffing less than average, those are the things worth asking about directly before you decide.
