New York State Veterans Home at Montrose is a New York State Department of Health-operated 252-bed skilled nursing facility at 2090 Albany Post Road in Montrose, New York. It serves eligible veterans and their dependents, providing skilled nursing, memory care, rehabilitation, and respite services. Accepted are Medicare, Medicaid, and private pay.
CMS scores the facility 1 star, with health inspection and quality measure sub-ratings each more than 49 percent below New York’s average. Across three inspections since 2023, the facility averaged 13 deficiencies annually, 155 percent above the 5.1 state average. An April 2025 investigation cited failures in abuse prevention, reporting of alleged violations, and residents’ rights to be free from chemical and physical restraints; all deficiencies were corrected by May 2025. No fines or immediate jeopardy findings are in the record. Staffing runs counter to the overall rating: nurse hours at 4h 15m per resident per day are 22 percent above New York’s average, placing the facility 55th of 388 state SNFs. Occupancy stands at 80 percent, modestly below New York’s 88.3 percent average. The facility’s veterans-specific mission limits eligibility to qualifying veterans and dependents in Westchester County.
The state-operated community suits eligible veterans needing skilled nursing or memory care in Westchester County.

This home is ranked 55th out of 388 homes in New York. Total adjusted nursing hours per resident per day, combining RN, LPN, and aide time. CMS adjusts this for case-mix so facilities can be fairly compared.
| Staff type | Hours / Day / Resident | vs state avg |
|---|---|---|
|
Registered Nurse (RN)
RNs hold the highest nursing license and can assess residents, interpret test results, and direct care plans. More RN hours per day often signals stronger clinical oversight and faster response to health changes.
| 1h 2m per day | ▲ 48% State avg: 42m per day · National avg: 41m per day |
|
LPN / LVN
Licensed Practical Nurses (LPNs) or Licensed Vocational Nurses (LVNs) deliver routine hands-on care — medication administration, wound dressing, and monitoring vital signs. They work under RN supervision and make up a large share of daily bedside care.
| 23m per day | ▼ 50% State avg: 46m per day · National avg: 52m per day |
|
Nurse Aide
Certified Nurse Aides (CNAs) provide the most direct day-to-day assistance: bathing, dressing, feeding, and mobility. Nurse aide hours are typically the largest staffing category and directly affect residents' quality of life.
| 2h 25m per day | ▲ 11% State avg: 2h 11m per day · National avg: 2h 20m per day |
|
Weekend Total Nursing
Combined nursing hours (RN + LPN + Nurse Aide) per resident per day on weekends. Staffing often drops on weekends — this figure reveals whether the facility maintains adequate coverage outside of weekday hours.
| 3h 10m per day | ■ Avg State avg: 3h 10m per day · National avg: 3h 26m per day |
|
Physical Therapist
Hours per resident per day provided by licensed Physical Therapists (PTs) or PT Assistants. PT services help residents recover mobility after injury or illness and are especially important for post-acute (short-stay) rehabilitation.
| 3m per day | ▼ 57% State avg: 7m per day · National avg: 4m per day |
|
Weekend RN
Registered nurse hours specifically on weekends. Facilities sometimes reduce RN presence on Saturdays and Sundays — a low weekend RN figure compared to weekday hours can indicate reduced clinical oversight when most administrative staff are absent.
| 42m per day | ▲ 50% State avg: 28m per day · National avg: 28m per day |
