Cobalt Lodge runs on 1.77 nurse staffing hours per resident per day, and the national average is 3.86, so it's working with roughly half the direct care you'd see elsewhere. Weekend coverage drops about 15% below its own weekday level, which matters because that's when families often visit and when problems tend to surface. Staff turnover sits at 72.2% against a 45.8% national figure, meaning most of the people caring for residents are new to the building. The current record holds 50 deficiencies, including 3 at the harm or jeopardy level and 6 tied to abuse, plus a $37,440 fine. CMS has placed it in the Special Focus Facility program, and its last inspection was November 2024.
New London Sub-Acute And Nursing carries 83 deficiencies on its current record, and the ones that matter most are serious: 10 at the harm or jeopardy level and 11 tied to abuse. That record, plus six fines totaling $92,590, put the Waterford home in CMS's Special Focus Facility program, a designation reserved for the country's poorest performers. Nurse staffing sits at 3.61 hours per resident day, about 6% under the national average, and weekends run roughly 9% thinner than weekdays. Annual turnover of 42.6% is slightly better than the national figure, and the most recent inspection was in March 2025. The company is a for-profit limited liability company.
Grandview runs 4.00 nurse hours per resident day, a bit above the national average, so the raw staffing number looks fine at first glance. The problem is who's actually there from one week to the next: turnover is 64.1% against a national 45.8%, and weekends run roughly 10% thinner than weekdays. On top of that, CMS has cited 71 deficiencies, six at harm or jeopardy level and 17 abuse-related, with $485,942 in fines across five penalties, and the home sits in the Special Focus Facility program. That program is reserved for the country's most persistently troubled homes, and a 2025-07-24 inspection keeps it current rather than resolved.
Arden Care Center runs 271 beds under for-profit LLC ownership, and the numbers are hard to dress up. Nurse staffing sits at 3.53 hours per resident day, roughly 9% under the national figure, and it thins out further on weekends. Turnover at 38.1% is actually better than average, but it isn't enough to offset 94 deficiencies on the current record, 4 at harm or jeopardy level, 21 tied to abuse, plus three fines totaling $101,228. CMS has placed it in the Special Focus Facility program, which is reserved for homes with a persistent pattern of serious problems. The last inspection was February 2025.
Bickford Health Care Center in Windsor Locks has a staffing rating of one out of five stars, and the health inspection record is the same, one star. That's not a snapshot problem: the home carries 100 deficiencies, five of them serious enough to cause harm or put residents in immediate jeopardy, and ten tied to abuse. Federal fines total $122,338 across three penalties, and CMS has placed the home in its Special Focus Facility program, which is reserved for the country's most persistently troubled nursing homes. The quality measure rating sits at three stars, but strong clinical numbers can't offset a staffing shortfall and an inspection history this deep. If you're considering this home, ask directly what's changed since the January 2026 inspection.
Noble Horizons runs a tale of two report cards. Its staffing numbers look strong on paper, 3.74 nurse hours per resident day, close to the national average, with a five-star CMS staffing rating. Turnover sits at 35.5%, well below the national 45.8%, which suggests people stay. But the inspection record is where things fall apart: 51 deficiencies on file, five of them at the harm or jeopardy level and four tied to abuse. Three fines totaling $62,302 have been levied, and the most recent inspection, in February 2026, wasn't long ago. Weekend coverage runs about 9% thinner than weekdays. A nonprofit corporation owns the 91-bed home. Strong retention can't offset that many serious findings.
Autumn Lake Healthcare at Windsor runs 108 certified beds under corporate ownership, and the staffing numbers are the first thing that stand out. At 3.34 nurse hours per resident day, it sits about 14 percent under the national average of 3.86, and weekends dip roughly 6 percent below its own weekday levels, so coverage thins out exactly when families tend to visit. Annual turnover lands at 50.6 percent against a national 45.8 percent, which means the aides and nurses caring for your relative are likely to change often over a year. On inspections, the record shows 53 deficiencies, including one at the harm level and six tied to abuse, plus $190,822 in fines across two penalties. The most recent inspection was March 11, 2026.
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.
Mystic Healthcare & Rehabilitation Center runs 100 certified beds under for-profit LLC ownership, and the numbers here deserve a careful look before you decide anything. Nurse staffing sits at 3.35 hours per resident day, roughly 13% under the national average, and it thins out further on weekends, running about 7% below the home's own weekday level. Staff turnover hits 58.8% against a national average of 45.8%, meaning well over half the nursing team leaves each year. The current inspection record carries 41 deficiencies, including 3 at the harm or jeopardy level and 6 tied to abuse, with two fines totaling $38,860. The most recent inspection was January 14, 2026.
Meriden Health and Rehab runs 90 beds under for-profit LLC ownership, and its staffing numbers look decent on paper, 3.94 nurse hours per resident day, just above the national average. But the people delivering that care don't stay: turnover is 75%, against a national average of 45.8%, and weekend coverage drops roughly 14% below weekday levels. The inspection record is the harder problem. The current file holds 49 deficiencies, including two at the harm or jeopardy level and five tied to abuse, with two fines totaling $29,965. The most recent inspection was in January 2025. When direct-care staff cycle through that fast, consistency is hard to maintain, and the survey history here suggests it shows.
Wadsworth Glen Health Care and Rehabilitation Center in Middletown is a 102-bed for-profit home, and the numbers worth knowing about are its staffing and its inspection record. The federal data puts total nurse staffing at 0.02 hours per resident day against a national average of 3.86, a gap of roughly the entire national figure, and weekend staffing drops about 43 percent below what the home manages on weekdays. Annual turnover sits at 51.9 percent, higher than the 45.8 percent national average. On inspections, the home carries 46 deficiencies, including one at the harm or jeopardy level and seven tied to abuse, with its most recent inspection dated August 11, 2025. CMS rates its staffing 1 out of 5 stars.
Advanced Center For Nursing & Rehabilitation runs 226 certified beds in New Haven under corporate ownership, and the inspection record is where the trouble sits: a one-star health inspection rating, 72 deficiencies on the current record, three of them serious enough to cause harm or put residents in jeopardy, and six tied to abuse. A single $72,450 fine is also on file. Staffing sits slightly under the national average at 3.78 hours per resident day, and weekends run about 19% thinner than weekdays, so coverage is lightest when families tend to visit. Turnover, at 34.4%, is actually better than the national 45.8%, one of the few numbers here working in the home's favor. The most recent inspection was January 2025.
Saint Mary Home runs a tight ship on staffing retention: 23.8% turnover is roughly half the national rate, which matters because consistent caregivers tend to know residents' routines and catch changes early. Nurse staffing sits just under the national average at 3.80 hours per resident day, and weekends dip about 8% below the home's own weekday coverage, so ask how that gap gets filled. The inspection record is the softer spot, 26 deficiencies on file, including one at the harm level and two tied to abuse, with the most recent survey in November 2024. Quality measures score well, but the survey history is what a family should read closely.
Hebrew Center for Health and Rehabilitation runs 257 certified beds under for-profit LLC ownership, and its staffing sits at 3.76 nurse hours per resident day, roughly 3% under the national average, with weekends running about 10% thinner than its own weekdays. Turnover is the bright spot: 34.6% against a national 45.8%, meaning aides and nurses here tend to stay. The inspection record is where it gets harder. A 2/5 health inspection rating, 43 deficiencies on file including 9 tied to abuse, and one fine of $27,927. No deficiency reached harm or jeopardy level, and the last inspection was recent, in January 2026. Strong quality measures and steady staff, weighed against a long citation history.
Greentree Manor runs 90 certified beds in Waterford under corporate, for-profit ownership, and the numbers tell a divided story. Nurse staffing sits at 3.95 hours per resident day, slightly above the national average, but weekends dip about 7% below its own weekday level, and annual turnover hits 64.9% against a national 45.8%. That churn matters more than the headline staffing figure.
The inspection record is where things get serious: 89 deficiencies on the current record, including 3 at harm or jeopardy level and 12 abuse-related, with the most recent inspection in May 2025. Both the health inspection and quality measure ratings sit at 1 out of 5 stars, while staffing earns 3. That gap between how the place is staffed and how it's actually run is worth asking about directly.
Bloomfield Center runs on thinner nursing coverage than most homes, 3.32 hours per resident day against a national average of 3.86, with weekends dipping about 9% below its own weekday level. That's a real gap when someone needs help on a Saturday. Staff turnover sits at 33%, better than the 45.8% national figure, so the aides who are there tend to stay. The bigger concern is the record: 55 deficiencies, 13 of them abuse-related, and a 2-out-of-5 inspection rating, though none rose to the harm or jeopardy level and the most recent inspection was in May 2025. Quality measures score 4 out of 5. For-profit corporate ownership. If you're considering this one, ask directly about weekend coverage and how abuse allegations get investigated.
Apple Rehab Guilford runs 90 beds under corporate ownership, and its nurse staffing sits at 3.20 hours per resident day, roughly 17% under the national average of 3.86. Weekends dip about 10% below its own weekday coverage, so the thinnest shifts are the ones families tend to visit.
Turnover lands at 43.9%, essentially in line with the national 45.8%, so that's not the standout problem here. The inspection record is: 39 deficiencies on file, none flagged at harm or jeopardy level, but eight tied to abuse. The last inspection was February 2025, so the picture is current. Two stars each on health inspections and staffing, three on quality measures.
Norwalk Care Center runs 150 certified beds under for-profit LLC ownership, and its nurse staffing sits at 3.74 hours per resident day, just under the national average of 3.86. Weekends drop roughly 11% below its own weekday coverage, and staff turnover is 42.3%, a touch better than the 45.8% national figure. What stands out is the inspection record: 41 deficiencies, including 3 at harm or jeopardy level and 7 tied to abuse, plus two fines totaling $198,225. Its last inspection was October 2024. Quality measures score well, but the health inspection rating tells a different story, and that gap is worth asking about directly.
Parkway Pavilion runs 130 beds in Enfield, and the staffing numbers are where I'd start. At 3.45 nurse hours per resident day, it sits about 11% under the national average, and weekends drop roughly 6% below its own weekday levels, so the thinnest coverage lands when families tend to visit. Turnover, at 45.3%, is essentially the national rate, so that's not the problem here. The inspection record is: 52 deficiencies, including one at harm or jeopardy level and six tied to abuse, with a single fine of $8,018 and a one-star health inspection rating. The most recent inspection was September 2024. Quality measures score better than the health inspection does, which tells you the day-to-day care record and the paperwork don't match up.
Harbor Village North runs 128 certified beds under for-profit LLC ownership, and its 3.19 total nurse staffing hours per resident day sit about 17% under the national average of 3.86, thin coverage that gets thinner on weekends, roughly 7% below the home's own weekday level. Turnover, at 32.3%, is actually better than the 45.8% national figure, so the problem isn't retention. It's the inspection record: 49 deficiencies, including 2 at harm or jeopardy level and 9 abuse-related, plus a $106,050 fine. A 1/5 health inspection rating against 3/5 on quality and staffing measures tells you where the risk concentrates.
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.
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.
Apple Rehab Colchester runs on 3.25 nurse staffing hours per resident day, roughly 16 percent under the national average, and weekend coverage drops about 12 percent below its own weekday levels. Staff turnover sits at 54.8 percent against a national 45.8 percent, so the people providing care are changing often.
The inspection record is the bigger concern: 49 deficiencies, including 5 at the harm or jeopardy level and 9 tied to abuse, plus two fines totaling $41,203. The most recent inspection was August 2025.
For-profit corporate ownership, 60 beds. The staffing star rating looks acceptable on paper, but it doesn't reflect what those turnover numbers and the harm-level deficiencies suggest about daily life here.
Westside Care Center runs 162 certified beds in Manchester under for-profit LLC ownership, and the staffing numbers are the first thing worth noticing. At 3.10 nurse hours per resident day, it sits roughly 20% under the national average of 3.86, and weekend coverage drops another 13% below its own weekday level, meaning the thinnest shifts land exactly when families tend to visit. Turnover is 33%, better than the 45.8% national figure. The inspection record shows 41 deficiencies, seven tied to abuse, though none reached harm or jeopardy level; the last inspection was November 2024. Its quality measure rating is strong, but that sits alongside a two-star inspection score and two-star staffing.
Riverside Health & Rehabilitation Center runs 345 certified beds in East Hartford under corporate for-profit ownership. Nurse staffing sits at 3.80 hours per resident day, just under the national average of 3.86, and weekends run about 8% leaner than weekdays, so coverage thins out exactly when families tend to visit. Where it stands out is retention: 21.9% turnover against a national average of 45.8%, meaning the aides and nurses who are there tend to stay. The inspection record is the harder read. Forty-three deficiencies, four at harm or jeopardy level and two abuse-related, plus three fines totaling $61,394, with the most recent inspection dated January 22, 2026.
Trinity Hill runs lean on nursing hours, 2.92 per resident per day, roughly a quarter below the national figure, and weekends get thinner still, dropping about 9% from its own weekday level. The inspection record carries 37 deficiencies, including one at harm or jeopardy level and six tied to abuse, with a $58,994 fine on the books; the last visit was October 2024. Turnover at 26.1% actually beats the national rate substantially, which suggests some steadiness in the workforce even as daily coverage lags. Quality measures score well, but staffing and inspection results are where the concern sits.
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.
Complete Care At Kimberly Hall North is a 150-bed for-profit home in Windsor, and the staffing numbers are the first thing to notice. At 3.16 nurse hours per resident day, it runs about 18% under the national average, and weekends drop roughly 8% below its own weekday level, so coverage thins out exactly when families tend to visit. Turnover sits at 32.4%, well below the national 45.8%, which suggests some stability in the workforce. The harder read is the inspection record: 41 deficiencies, four at harm or jeopardy level, nine tied to abuse, and a one-star health inspection rating. A $13,065 fine and a September 2024 inspection round out the picture.
Ark Healthcare & Rehabilitation At Branford Hills runs 190 certified beds under for-profit LLC ownership, and its staffing sits at 3.75 nurse hours per resident day, a bit under the national average, with weekends running about 8% thinner than weekdays. Annual turnover is 54% against a national 45.8%, so the people caring for residents are changing often. The inspection record is the heavier concern: 44 deficiencies, including 2 at harm or jeopardy level and 3 abuse-related, with a 2-out-of-5 health inspection rating and a February 2026 inspection. One fine totaling $8,021 rounds out the record. Quality and staffing measures each land mid-range at 3 stars, but the inspection history is what pulls this home's profile down.
Chelsea Place runs 234 beds in Hartford under for-profit LLC ownership, and its staffing sits at 2.86 nurse hours per resident day, roughly a quarter below the national average of 3.86. Weekends are thinner still, about 10% under its own weekday levels. What stands out in the inspection record is volume and severity: 62 deficiencies, including one at the harm or jeopardy level and eight tied to abuse. Both CMS health inspection and quality measure ratings land at 1 out of 5 stars. One number cuts the other way, annual turnover of 23.6% is well below the national 45.8%, so staff appear to stay, even if there aren't enough of them on the floor.
Caleb Hitchcock Health Center sits on strong staffing numbers: 5.91 nurse hours per resident day, well above the national average, and weekend coverage barely dips from weekday levels. Turnover runs about half the national rate, which matters for consistency of care. The problem is the inspection record. Twenty-one deficiencies, three serious enough to put residents in harm's way, three tied to abuse, and two fines totaling $55,350, all from a state survey dated November 2025, so it's recent. A nonprofit operator with a stable workforce still hasn't translated that into safe conditions on the ground. Families should ask directly what changed since that last survey.
Wilton Meadows runs 148 beds under for-profit partnership ownership, and its nurse staffing sits at 3.88 hours per resident day, essentially level with the national average, with weekends about 8% thinner than weekdays. Turnover at 39.7% is better than the 45.8% national figure, so the workforce is comparatively stable. The trouble is the inspection record: 39 deficiencies, three at harm or jeopardy level and five abuse-related, with a $16,452 fine and a 2/5 health inspection rating. That combination, average staffing, below-average inspections, and a recent October 2024 survey, is what pulls its standing down.
Havencare At Litchfield Woods runs 160 certified beds under for-profit LLC ownership, and its inspection record is the part that should worry you most: 69 deficiencies on the current record, three of them at the harm or jeopardy level, and 15 tied to abuse. Those numbers are what pull its health inspection rating down to the lowest tier, even though the home's quality measure and staffing stars sit higher. Nurse staffing averages 3.54 hours per resident day, about 8% under the national figure, and weekends run roughly 8% thinner than weekdays. Turnover, at 33.3%, is actually better than the 45.8% national average, so retention isn't the problem here. The state last inspected in July 2025, and one fine totaling $7,901 is on file.
Mary Wade Home puts more nurses on the floor than most places, 4.76 hours per resident day against a national average of 3.86, and that shows up in its staffing and quality ratings. The catch is what inspectors have found: 51 deficiencies on the current record, including one at the harm level and eight tied to abuse, which is why its health inspection rating sits at the bottom. Weekend coverage also drops about 13% below weekdays, so care can thin out when families visit. Staff turnover runs 51.8%, higher than the 45.8% national figure, and the nonprofit has paid $20,144 in fines across two penalties. The last inspection was February 2025.
Ludlowe Center runs 144 certified beds under for-profit LLC ownership, and its staffing is the clearest strength: 4.24 nurse hours per resident day, about 10% above the national average, with turnover at 23.6%, roughly half the national rate of 45.8%. Weekend coverage does dip about 10% below weekday levels. The inspection record is where the trouble sits. Twenty-four deficiencies are on file, three at harm or jeopardy level and two tied to abuse, along with two fines totaling $47,317 and a two-star health inspection rating. The most recent inspection was September 2025, so the record is current, not stale. Strong retention, mixed oversight.
Havencare At Valerie Manor runs 151 certified beds under corporate for-profit ownership, and the staffing numbers are the first thing worth noticing. At 3.50 nurse hours per resident day, it sits about 9% under the national average of 3.86, and weekends drop roughly 8% below its own weekday level, so coverage is thinnest exactly when families tend to visit. Annual turnover of 48.5% runs slightly above the 45.8% national figure, which usually means less continuity for residents. The 45 deficiencies on the current record include nine tied to abuse, though none reached harm or jeopardy level, and the last inspection was January 21, 2026.
Silver Springs Care Center runs 159 certified beds under for-profit LLC ownership, and its nurse staffing sits at 3.11 hours per resident day, roughly 20% under the national average of 3.86. Weekend coverage drops another 13% below the home's own weekday levels, so the thinnest shifts land when families tend to visit. Turnover is actually better than average at 35.8% against 45.8% nationally, which matters for continuity of care. What pulls the record down is the inspection history: 36 deficiencies, three at harm or jeopardy level, and 11 tied to abuse. Health inspection and staffing each earned 2 out of 5 stars from CMS, while quality measures scored 5. The last inspection was December 20, 2024, with $24,150 in fines on file.
Civita Care Sheriden Woods runs 146 beds in Bristol under for-profit LLC ownership, and its nurse staffing sits at 3.12 hours per resident day, roughly 19% under the national average of 3.86. Weekends are thinner still, about 8% below the home's own weekday coverage. The inspection record is the bigger concern: 58 deficiencies, four of them at harm or jeopardy level and ten tied to abuse, with two fines totaling $28,030. Turnover at 43.3% is slightly better than the 45.8% national figure, but that's the one number here that isn't working against it. The last inspection was March 2026.
Gardner Heights runs lean on nursing hours, 3.13 per resident day against a national average of 3.86, with weekends dipping about 7% below its own weekday pace. The inspection record carries 34 deficiencies, including one at the harm level and five tied to abuse, and the last full inspection was in August 2024. Turnover sits at 34.4%, which is actually better than the 45.8% national figure, so the problem isn't retention as much as how few hours each resident gets. Corporate-owned, 130 beds, with a single fine of $7,446 on file.
Monsignor Bojnowski Manor runs 60 beds as a nonprofit, and its quality measure scores are strong, a 5 out of 5 there. The problem is the people delivering that care. Nurse staffing sits at 3.30 hours per resident per day, well under the 3.86 national average, and weekends run thinner than weekdays. Turnover hits 70% against a 45.8% national rate, meaning most of the aides and nurses you'd meet this year won't be there next year. Add 37 deficiencies on the current record, including one at harm level and six tied to abuse, plus five fines totaling about $22,000 from a February 2025 inspection. Good outcome scores are harder to trust when the workforce behind them keeps changing.
Water's Edge runs 150 beds in Middletown under corporate ownership, and its inspection record is the thing to look at first. Thirty-six deficiencies, four serious enough to involve harm or jeopardy, and five tied to abuse. Three fines add up to $99,037. Staffing sits at 3.61 hours per resident day, about 6% under the national average, and weekends drop roughly 10% below weekdays. Turnover is 39.2%, better than the 45.8% national figure, but that's the one bright number in the staffing picture. The quality measure stars look good on paper, though those come from self-reported data. The most recent inspection was March 2026. Ask about staffing on weekends and how the abuse deficiencies were resolved before you decide.
Marlborough Health & Rehabilitation Center runs 120 certified beds under corporate for-profit ownership, and the staffing numbers are where the trouble starts: 3.44 nurse hours per resident day sits about 11% below the national average, and weekends drop another 11% below its own weekday level. Turnover at 36.8% is actually better than the 45.8% national figure, so the problem isn't retention so much as how few hours each resident gets. The inspection record is heavier: 40 deficiencies, including 3 at harm or jeopardy level and 11 abuse-related, with two fines totaling $206,228. The last inspection was August 2023, so that record has had time to age without being cleared.
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.
Laurel Ridge is a 126-bed for-profit home in Ridgefield, and its numbers point in two directions at once. The care side looks solid: 4.06 nurse hours per resident per day, above the national average, with weekend staffing dipping roughly 10% below weekdays, and turnover at 37.9%, better than the 45.8% national figure. The inspection record is the problem: 31 deficiencies, including six tied to abuse and one at the harm or jeopardy level. A 2-out-of-5 inspection rating against a 5-out-of-5 quality measure score is a real split. The most recent state visit was April 8, 2025, so that record is current. Ask about those abuse deficiencies specifically before you tour.
New Haven Center For Nursing & Rehabilitation runs 4.04 nurse hours per resident day, about 5% above the national average, and its staff turnover of 27.6% is well below the national 45.8%, people tend to stay. That stability doesn't show up in oversight, though. The home's inspection record carries 80 deficiencies, including two at the harm or jeopardy level and eight tied to abuse, with $61,814 in fines and a health inspection rating of 1 out of 5. Weekend staffing also drops roughly 16% below its own weekday levels, so coverage thins when families visit. The last inspection was August 2025, so the record is current. Read the inspection reports yourself before deciding.
Civita Care Northbridge runs 44 deficiencies on its current record, including four at the harm or jeopardy level and seven tied to abuse. That's the number that matters most here, and it's why the health inspection rating sits at 1 out of 5. Nurse staffing is 3.60 hours per resident day, about 7% under the national average, and weekends drop roughly 12% below the home's own weekday level, so the coverage gaps aren't just relative, they're internal. Turnover at 31.5% is genuinely better than the 45.8% national figure, and the quality measure rating is 4 out of 5, so there are pieces working. But this is a for-profit LLC with $162,221 in fines across three penalties and an inspection dated March 2026. Ask about those seven abuse-related deficiencies directly.
Summit at Plantsville runs 150 beds under for-profit LLC ownership, and its nurse staffing sits at 3.58 hours per resident day, roughly 7% under the national average of 3.86. Weekends dip about 8% below its own weekday coverage, so the thinnest shifts land when families tend to visit. Turnover runs 38.7%, which is actually better than the 45.8% national figure, so the same faces are more likely to stick around. What pulls the record down is the inspection side: 43 deficiencies, including one at harm or jeopardy level and four tied to abuse, with a 2-out-of-5 health inspection rating and a $3,652 fine.
