Every nursing home CMS records under this group, and how the portfolio performs as a whole. Consistency
across a group says more about an operator than any single building.
Elderwood of Scallop Shell runs 80 beds under for-profit LLC ownership, and its staffing sits at 3.58 nurse hours per resident day, roughly 7% under the national average of 3.86. That gap widens on weekends, when coverage drops about 13% below the home's own weekday level, and annual turnover of 55.9% means more than half the nursing staff leaves each year, against a national rate of 45.8%. The inspection record is where the real concern sits: 25 deficiencies, six of them serious enough to reach harm or jeopardy level, and two fines totaling $89,882. The most recent inspection was November 2025, so that record is current.
Elderwood At Grand Island runs a 90-bed for-profit home where the staffing numbers are the main thing to know. Nurses provide 3.18 hours of care per resident each day, roughly 18 percent under the national average, and weekends drop about 15 percent below the home's own weekday level, so the thinnest coverage lands when families tend to visit. Staff turnover sits at 61.8 percent against a national 45.8 percent, meaning more than half the caregivers turned over in a year. The inspection record shows seven deficiencies, none at harm or jeopardy level, but one is abuse-related, and the last state visit was December 2024. Quality measures score well; staffing and inspection results are what pull the overall picture down.
Elderwood At Lancaster runs 96 certified beds under corporate for-profit ownership, and the numbers show a home stretched thinner than most. Nurse staffing sits at 2.76 hours per resident day, roughly 28 percent below the national average, and weekends drop about 9 percent below its own weekday level, so coverage is lightest exactly when families tend to visit. Annual turnover of 77.2 percent is well above the national 45.8 percent, meaning many of the aides and nurses you'd meet are relatively new. The inspection record, last updated in November 2024, carries 16 deficiencies, two tied to abuse, though none reached harm or jeopardy level. Quality measures score well; staffing and inspections are where the problems concentrate.
Elderwood Of Lakeside At Brockport runs about 2.69 nursing hours per resident each day, roughly 30% under the national average of 3.86, and weekend coverage drops about 19% below what the home staffs on weekdays. Turnover sits at 68.5% against a national 45.8%, which means most of the aides and nurses around your relative are relatively new. The good news: the state's last inspection was in April 2025, and the home carries just seven deficiencies with none at the harm level and none abuse-related. So the care problems here aren't neglect or safety citations, they're thin coverage, especially on weekends, which is worth asking about directly.
Elderwood At Wheatfield runs about 2.95 nurse hours per resident per day, roughly a quarter below the national average of 3.86, and weekends drop another 19% below its own weekday staffing. That thin coverage shows up in the numbers: 59.3% annual turnover, well above the 45.8% national figure, and a 2-out-of-5 staffing rating from CMS. The 123-bed for-profit home carries 13 deficiencies on its current record, none at the harm level, but one abuse-related, and its last inspection was August 2024. Quality measures score well at 4 out of 5, so resident care indicators look stronger than the staffing that delivers them. Ask about weekend coverage and turnover before touring.
Elderwood At North Creek runs 82 certified beds under for-profit LLC ownership, and its nurse staffing sits at 2.50 hours per resident day, roughly 35 percent under the national average of 3.86. Weekends dip about 12 percent below the home's own weekday coverage, so the thinnest shifts land when families tend to visit. Turnover is 38.5 percent, which is actually better than the 45.8 percent national figure, and the 12 deficiencies on record include none at the harm level and none tied to abuse. The tradeoff shows up in the staffing and quality stars, where the home scores 1 and 2 out of 5, while its last inspection was September 2024.
Elderwood At Lockport runs 3.54 nurse hours per resident per day, about 8% under the national average of 3.86, and weekends dip roughly 6% below its own weekday coverage. Staff turnover sits at 51.5% against a 45.8% national figure, so the people caring for residents are changing often. Ten deficiencies are on the current record, one serious enough to reach harm or jeopardy level, and a single fine has totaled $94,185. The last inspection was May 2025, so the picture is reasonably recent. For-profit LLC ownership, 126 beds, and staffing that trails the benchmark by a small but steady margin, that's the pattern worth weighing against the location and your own visits.
Elderwood At Amherst runs 92 beds under for-profit LLC ownership, and the staffing numbers are the first thing I'd flag. At 3.80 nurse hours per resident day, it sits just under the national average of 3.86, and weekends drop roughly 15% below its own weekday coverage, that's when you're most likely to notice a difference. Turnover tells a bigger story: 57.4% annually against a national 45.8%, meaning more than half the nursing staff turns over each year. Twelve deficiencies sit on the current record, including three tied to abuse and one at the harm level, with a $25,262 fine. The most recent inspection was April 2025, so the record is relatively current. Quality measures score well; the inspection and staffing picture is where the concern lives.
Elderwood Of Uihlein At Lake Placid runs 156 certified beds under for-profit LLC ownership, and the staffing numbers are the first thing worth noticing. At 2.62 nurse hours per resident day, it sits roughly a third below the national average of 3.86, and weekends dip about 8% below its own weekday levels, so coverage thins out right when families tend to visit. Annual turnover of 61.3% outpaces the national 45.8%, which matters because consistent caregivers know residents' routines. The current record shows 26 deficiencies with none at harm or jeopardy level and none abuse-related, and the last inspection was October 2024. State surveyors rated health inspections 2 out of 5 stars.
Elderwood at Ticonderoga is a for-profit, LLC-run home with 84 certified beds in Essex County, and its staffing is the number that stands out: 3.01 nurse hours per resident day, about 22 percent under the national average of 3.86. Weekend coverage runs roughly 9 percent thinner than weekdays, and turnover sits at 48.6 percent against a national 45.8 percent. The current inspection record shows 27 deficiencies, two of them abuse-related, though none rose to harm or jeopardy level, and CMS has fined the home once for $4,516. Its last inspection was July 15, 2024. All three CMS star ratings, health inspections, quality measures, and staffing, sit at 2 out of 5.
Elderwood At Liverpool runs 160 certified beds under for-profit LLC ownership, and the staffing numbers are where the trouble starts. At 3.52 nurse hours per resident day, it sits about 9% under the national average of 3.86, and weekends drop roughly 14% below its own weekday level, so the thinnest coverage lands when families tend to visit. The staffing star rating comes in at 1 out of 5, with quality measures at 2 and health inspections at 3. Its record shows 17 deficiencies, none at harm or jeopardy level and none abuse-related, plus one fine of $56,921. The last inspection was February 2026, so the picture is current.
Elderwood At Hornell passes its health inspections cleanly, a five-star record, just eight deficiencies and none of them causing harm or involving abuse. The trouble is who's left to do the work. At 2.75 nurse hours per resident day, staffing sits roughly 29% under the national average, and it thins out further on weekends. A 63.5% annual turnover rate means most of the aides and nurses on a given shift are relatively new, which matters more when there are fewer of them. One fine of $4,194 is minor. For-profit LLC ownership, 122 beds, last inspected in February 2024. Strong surveys, thin coverage, families should ask pointed questions about evening and weekend staffing specifically.
Elderwood At Cheektowaga runs 3.27 nursing hours per resident day, roughly 15% under the national average, and weekends dip another 15% below its own weekday staffing. That thin coverage shows up in a 63% annual turnover rate, well above the 45.8% national figure, which means the aides and nurses walking into residents' rooms are often new to the building. The current inspection record carries 23 deficiencies, including three tied to abuse, though none rose to harm or jeopardy level. Quality measures look strong at 4 out of 5 stars, but the 2-star health inspection and 2-star staffing ratings, under for-profit LLC ownership, tell a more cautious story.
Elderwood At Hamburg runs 166 certified beds under for-profit LLC ownership, and the staffing numbers are where the trouble sits. At 3.02 nurse hours per resident day, it's about 22 percent below the national average of 3.86, and weekends dip roughly 16 percent below its own weekday levels, meaning the thinnest coverage lands when families tend to visit. Turnover tells a related story: 71.7 percent annually against a national average of 45.8 percent, so the people caring for residents are cycling through fast. Inspections in June 2025 turned up 15 deficiencies, including one at the harm level and two tied to abuse, plus a $26,000 fine. Medicare's staffing rating of 2 out of 5 reflects what those hours look like in practice.
Elderwood At Burlington runs 150 certified beds under for-profit LLC ownership, and the numbers that stand out most are on the workforce side. Nurse staffing sits at 3.80 hours per resident day, just under the national average of 3.86, and weekends drop roughly 9% below the home's own weekday levels, so coverage thins out exactly when families tend to visit. Annual turnover of 67.9% is well above the 45.8% national figure, meaning most of the people caring for residents are relatively new to the building. The inspection record shows 70 deficiencies, including five at the harm or jeopardy level and five tied to abuse, plus a $220,961 fine, all with a March 2026 inspection date that's recent enough to matter.
Elderwood At Williamsville runs 200 beds under for-profit LLC ownership, and the staffing numbers are where the trouble starts. At 3.71 nurse hours per resident day, it sits below the national average, and weekends drop roughly 23% below its own weekday levels, so the thinnest coverage lands exactly when families tend to visit. Turnover tells a similar story: 72.4% annually against a national 45.8%, meaning most of the people caring for your relative are new or about to leave. The current record shows 22 deficiencies, including one at harm level and four abuse-related, plus a $75,553 fine. Inspectors last visited in January 2025.
Elderwood At Waverly runs 200 certified beds in Tioga County under for-profit individual ownership, and the numbers behind its record deserve a close look. Nurse staffing sits at 2.66 hours per resident day, roughly 31% under the national average of 3.86, and weekends drop about 18% below what the home staffs on weekdays, so coverage thins out exactly when families tend to visit. Annual turnover of 67.5% against a 45.8% national average means the aides and nurses caring for residents are frequently new. The current inspection record carries 26 deficiencies, including two at the harm or jeopardy level and two abuse-related, plus $120,884 in fines.
