Most new residents arrive under Medicare (52% of admissions), and a typical Medicare stay runs around 1 - 2 months.
Morrison Nursing Home is a 57-bed skilled nursing facility operated by Morrison Hospital Association, a nonprofit, at 6 Terrace Street in Whitefield, New Hampshire, in Coos County. The facility provides skilled nursing, memory care, rehabilitation, and respite services. Medicare, Medicaid, and private pay are welcome. 24-hour staffing and a Memory Care Day Program exist.
CMS rates the facility 1 star, with health inspection and staffing sub-ratings each well below the New Hampshire average. Across four inspections since 2023, the facility averaged 7.3 deficiencies per year, 78 percent above the 4.1 state average. A November 2023 complaint investigation identified an immediate jeopardy-level finding: the facility failed to prevent resident-to-resident and staff-to-resident abuse, delayed reporting of abuse allegations to the state survey agency by 26 days, and conducted inadequate investigations for multiple incidents involving sexual and physical abuse. Subsequent inspections in December 2024 and January 2026 recorded medication management and food safety deficiencies, with 62 dates in 2024 missing documented LPN coverage. No fines appear on record.
Occupancy stands at 91 percent, above the 81.1 percent New Hampshire average, reflecting consistent local demand in a rural county with limited alternatives. Nurse hours run 3h 59m per resident per day, modestly below the 4h 13m state average.
The community is best for residents seeking skilled nursing or memory care in Coos County, serving as a primary care option in Whitefield.
Morrison Nursing Home is administered by Elizabeth M Hazard.
