Overview of Riverside Health and Rehabilitation Center
Riverside Health and Rehabilitation Center provides nursing home, hospice care, memory care, palliative care, respite care, and skilled nursing in Trenton, NJ. Nursing home and skilled nursing services support residents who need ongoing nursing care, while memory care provides supervision in a secured setting for someone at risk of wandering. Hospice and palliative care focus on comfort and symptom management. Respite care offers a short stay when a usual caregiver needs time away, travel, or recovery.
The community has 131 beds in the South Trenton neighborhood. A Walk Score of 74 means the area is very walkable, with most errands possible on foot, so a resident who no longer drives can still reach nearby shops, pharmacies, or cafes independently. The mix of ongoing nursing, memory, comfort-focused, and short-term services may suit a resident whose care needs or length of stay may change over time.
Total nurse staffing is 4 hours and 35 minutes per resident per day, representing the daily hands-on nursing time assigned to each resident. Medicare, Medicaid, and private pay are accepted, and Mr. Ephraim Halpert serves as the administrator. Outpatient therapy and rehabilitation services allow residents to receive therapy through the center, while scheduled transportation supports planned trips. A salon and spa, courtyard, and community garden provide additional on-site spaces and services, and pediatric skilled nursing is also available for children who need skilled nursing care.
Measured by Centers for Medicare & Medicaid Services (CMS)
Overall ratingThe Overall CMS Rating combines results from health inspections, staffing levels and quality measures. Health inspections carry the most weight. Staffing and quality scores can increase or decrease the final rating based on performance compared to state and national standards.
Health InspectionBased on the results of the facility's three most recent standard inspections and any complaint investigations. CMS reviews the number, scope, and severity of deficiencies, with more recent findings weighted more heavily.
StaffingMeasures average nursing staff hours per resident per day, including Registered Nurses (RNs) and total nursing staff. Ratings are adjusted based on the level of care residents require and are compared to state and national benchmarks.
Quality MeasuresBased on clinical and physical health indicators reported to CMS, such as hospital readmissions, falls, pressure ulcers, and improvements in mobility. These measures reflect how well residents' health needs are being managed.

The Inspection Grade is a proprietary Assisted Living Magazine grade — a
0–100 score (shown as a letter) of a facility's regulatory inspection record,
compared with other CMS-certified facilities in New Jersey. It is built from several categories, each carrying a
weighted share — ranking better than that group raises the grade, worse lowers it. Serious
problems weigh more than clean marks, so one severe issue costs more than a good record earns.
It is not a government rating. CMS and state health agencies publish the underlying
inspection records; the grade is our own calculation from them, and no regulator endorses or reviews it.
It can disagree with the CMS Health Inspection rating, which does not factor
in enforcement and persistence.
How the score is actually built — the categories, what share of the grade each one
carries, the exact measure behind it, and how the pieces combine — is set out in the
Methodology panel. This page covers what the grade is, what it is not, and when we
decline to publish one.
It covers inspections, and nothing else. This grade reads a facility's regulatory
inspection record. It does not measure staffing levels, clinical quality, food, activities, or what
residents and families think of the place. A facility with a strong inspection record can still be
a poor fit, and a weaker record is a reason to ask questions rather than a verdict.
Not every facility is graded on the same categories. Which categories exist at all
depends on what a facility's regulator publishes — fines and problem-resolution data, for instance, are
collected only at the federal level, so they are never part of a state-licensed facility's grade. A
grade can even rest on a single category when that is the only inspection data on
record. It reflects what we can actually verify, and a facility is never marked down for data that
does not exist for it. The Methodology panel lists the categories this facility is
graded on.
The period we look at. Where a state publishes its own inspection record, the grade
follows that record and the period the state reports on. Where we grade from inspection reports we have read
ourselves, the grade covers the last five years. CMS-certified
nursing homes are graded on the current records CMS publishes. Either way, old findings age out: a
facility isn't judged forever on a problem it has long since fixed.
Data quality. We weigh every category by how much verified data we actually have —
federal CMS inspection records count fully, a state's own published record counts nearly as much, and reports read by our AI count for less. When a
record is thin, we grade more cautiously and won't publish a damaging grade we can't stand behind.
The scale. It's set so a typical facility lands around a B+. Most homes are fine;
C, D, or F is a genuine warning flag worth a closer look.
Methodology
How the grade is built for CMS-certified facilities
Every measure below is compared against other CMS-certified facilities in New Jersey — a facility's
position among its peers, not a fixed target. Each category starts at
78, the neutral point, and a measure
moves it up or down according to where the facility ranks.
The score that comes out of those measures is turned into a letter on one
national scale, built from every CMS-certified facility in the country.
The federal inspection record is the same measurement in every state, so a B+ in
New Jersey means what it means anywhere.
Citations50% of grade
All citations, weighted by severity and recencyEvery citation is scored by how serious it was and how widespread, using CMS's own scale — from 4 points for a minor finding up to 150 for widespread immediate jeopardy. The points are then added up across the last three inspection cycles, with the most recent counted three times as heavily as the two before it, so a recent bad inspection weighs more than an old one. Lower is better.100% of this category · can add or subtract
Enforcement35% of grade
FinesThe total federal fines on record.50% of this category · can only subtract — a clean record here earns nothing

Persistence15% of grade
Time to correct a findingThe average number of days between a citation and its correction.100% of this category · can add or subtract
The categories are averaged, each weighted by the share shown above, giving a score out of 100.
Those shares assume every category has data behind it: where one is missing — because the
regulator publishes nothing for it — that category is left out and the remaining ones take its
share, rather than the facility being marked down for the gap.
A result above 78 is then pulled back toward it in
proportion to how complete the facility's record is, so a high grade cannot rest on thin evidence.
A recent serious finding can cap the result regardless of the categories. The number is finally
published on a 0–100 scale where a typical facility sits in the 70s and 80s.
The measures above compare this facility with CMS-certified facilities in New Jersey;
the letter itself comes from the national scale described above.

How we calculate these figures
We use the home's most recent CMS SNF Cost Report — the annual financial statement every Medicare- and Medicaid-certified nursing home is required to file — to show how it earns and spends on resident care.
This includes
Net patient revenue — what the home collects for resident care after contractual allowances, bad debt and discounts.
Payroll — staff salaries plus wage-related benefits. Contract and agency labor is counted separately, under other operating costs.
Net patient income — what's left after the home's total operating expenses.
How we calculate net patient income and payroll %
Net patient income is net patient revenue minus the home's total operating expenses. Payroll % is payroll divided by net patient revenue — the share of each revenue dollar that goes to staff pay.
Net patient revenue vs. other income
Net patient revenue is money earned from resident care only. Anything the home earns outside of care — investments, grants, rentals and other non-operating sources — is reported separately as other income. Other income is not part of net patient revenue, and it is not included in net patient income.

We analyze official CMS data on admissions and discharges to understand the types of residents a nursing home most often serves.
This includes
Medicare, Medicaid, and private-pay admissions and discharges
Number of nights covered by each payment type
Typical length of stay
How length of stay is calculated
Average length of stay comes from the facility's Medicare cost report: total resident days in the year divided by total discharges, across all residents and payment types. Homes that mostly provide long-term care show long averages, because few residents leave in a given year.

CMS (Centers for Medicare & Medicaid Services, the federal agency that regulates nursing homes) Overall 5-star rating — a composite of Health Inspection, Staffing, and Quality Measures scores. 5 stars = top 10% nationally. 1 star = bottom 10%. The single most important number to start with when comparing facilities.
Care Types in This TableNH (Nursing Home):
24/7 skilled nursing care for residents with complex, ongoing medical needs.
SNF (Skilled Nursing Facility):
Round-the-clock nursing care, often for recovery after surgery, injury, or illness.
MC (Memory Care):
Secured, specialized care for people living with Alzheimer's or dementia.
RC (Respite Care):
Short-term temporary care that gives family caregivers a break.
HOS (Hospice Care):
Comfort-focused care for those with a terminal illness, prioritizing quality of life over treatment.
PC (Palliative Care):
Comfort-focused care for serious illness at any stage, including alongside curative treatment.
Neighborhood or city area where the facility is located. Proximity to family, hospitals, and green space matters for both quality of life and ease of visitation. Consider drive time and transit access when evaluating location.
Licensed bed capacity. Larger facilities (300+ beds) often have more specialized programs but can feel institutional. Smaller homes (under 150 beds) tend to deliver more personalized care. Compare with Avg Res/Day to understand how full the facility typically runs.
A 0–100 score of a facility's regulatory inspection record, shown as a letter and compared with other facilities of the same kind in the same state. This is a proprietary Assisted Living Magazine grade. It is not a government rating. A dash means we have no inspection data for that facility.
Percentage of licensed beds filled on an average day. Color indicates financial health: green (90%+) = operationally strong, typically profitable. Amber (80–89%) = stable but leaving revenue on the table. Orange (70–79%) = financial strain likely, may struggle with fixed costs. Red (<70%) = significant distress, closure or ownership change risk increases sharply.
This facility's occupancy rate compared to the statewide average for similar facilities. A positive number means above-average demand. Facilities running 5%+ above the state average are typically the most sought-after in their market — a strong proxy for reputation.
CMS-adjusted total nurse hours per resident per day (RN + LPN + CNA combined). The national average is approximately 3.5 hrs. Higher is better — more direct care time per resident. Below 3.0 is a red flag. CMS weights RN hours more heavily because RNs handle complex clinical decisions that CNAs cannot.
CMS Health Inspection star rating (1–5 stars), based on the 3 most recent annual state surveys plus any complaint investigations. This is the hardest rating to manipulate — it reflects real surveyor findings on-site. 5 stars = fewest deficiencies found. 1 star = most. It carries the heaviest weight in the Overall CMS rating.
CMS Staffing star rating (1–5 stars), based on daily nurse staffing hours submitted to CMS via verified payroll data. Compares RN, LPN, and CNA coverage relative to resident acuity level. 5 stars = well above expected staffing. Weekend staffing is evaluated separately, as that's where many facilities quietly reduce coverage.
CMS Quality Measures star rating (1–5 stars), based on 15 clinical outcome metrics including fall rates, pressure ulcers, antipsychotic drug use, and hospital readmissions. Captures actual resident health outcomes, not just compliance. High QM combined with low Health Inspection scores can indicate a facility with strong care but weak documentation practices.
Registered Nurse hours per resident/day compared to the statewide average. RNs are the highest-skilled nursing staff — they assess residents, manage medications, and respond to emergencies. A value of +50% means RN coverage is 50% above the state norm. Negative values are a concern for residents with complex or acute medical needs.
Total nursing staff hours (RN + LPN + CNA combined) per resident/day vs. the statewide average. A broader measure than RN vs State — it captures the entire care team. A facility can have high total staffing but low RN hours, meaning more aides and fewer nurses. Read both columns together for the full picture.
Total dollar amount of federal monetary fines (civil money penalties) issued by CMS in the past 3 years. Fines are only levied for serious violations — typically actual harm to residents, repeated uncorrected deficiencies, or systemic non-compliance. Even a single fine is noteworthy. Multiple fines strongly suggest a pattern, not isolated incidents.
Total health deficiency citations from the most recent standard inspection cycle. Minor citations (scope A–C) are common and often administrative in nature. Higher counts aren't always disqualifying, but should be read alongside Severe Citations to understand actual harm levels. Under 10 is strong for a large facility; 30+ warrants a closer look.
Average deficiency citations per CMS inspection (survey) in the reporting window — total citations divided by the number of inspections. Lower is better; compare alongside total Citations and Severe Citations for context.
Citations at CMS scope/severity level G or higher — G–I means actual harm occurred; J–L means residents were placed in immediate jeopardy. (D–F is potential for harm only). Examples include unaddressed falls, medication errors causing injury, neglect, or abuse.
Average number of residents in the building on any given day, derived from annual census data. Reflects true operating scale — a 400-bed facility running 200 residents/day operates very differently from one at 390. Higher resident counts generally mean more funded staffing hours.
Better Business Bureau rating (A+ to F). Reflects complaint history, business transparency, and how family disputes were resolved. A+ means no significant unresolved complaints. A blank (—) means the facility isn't BBB-accredited, which is common for healthcare providers and not necessarily a negative signal.
Walk Score® (0–100). Measures walkability of the surrounding area. 90–100 = Walker's Paradise. 70–89 = Very Walkable. 50–69 = Somewhat Walkable. Below 50 = Car-Dependent. Higher scores benefit family visitors, resident outings, and staff commuting.
The licensed owner or operator of record filed with CMS — the individual or organization legally accountable for the facility. Searching the operator name across other facilities can reveal chain or multi-site ownership, which matters: chain-operated homes tend to have more variable quality outcomes than independently run facilities.
What the home actually collects for resident care, after contractual allowances, bad debt and discounts — not gross billings. Taken from the latest complete annual cost report, so it is comparable across homes reporting the same period. Revenue alone doesn't indicate care quality, but it funds staffing and capital reinvestment. Pair with Payroll %. Figures are from each facility's most recent complete fiscal year — hover a value for the exact year; a * marks homes that report an older period than most facilities.
Staff salaries plus wage-related benefits from the latest complete annual cost report. Contract and agency labour is counted separately, under other operating costs, so a home leaning on agency staff can show a low figure here. Payroll is the cost most directly tied to care quality — compare with Payroll % for full context. Figures are from each facility's most recent complete fiscal year — hover a value for the exact year; a * marks homes that report an older period than most facilities.
Payroll as a share of NET PATIENT REVENUE (not gross revenue). Both figures come from the same cost-report year. A higher figure means more of each revenue dollar goes to staff pay. Read with the Staffing star rating to judge whether spend translates into coverage — and note that homes whose patient revenue covers only part of their operation can read implausibly high. The New Jersey average is: 51.4% Figures are from each facility's most recent complete fiscal year — hover a value for the exact year; a * marks homes that report an older period than most facilities.
