Momentum at South Bay for Rehabilitation and Nursing is a 160-bed skilled nursing facility at 340 East Montauk Highway in East Islip, New York, in Suffolk County, owned and operated by Suffolk Restorative Therapy and Nursing, LLC, a for-profit limited liability company. The facility holds a 4-star CMS overall rating and is rated High Performing by U.S. News for both short-term rehabilitation and long-term care. It accepts Medicare and Medicaid, operates at approximately 94 percent occupancy with an average daily census of 149.6 residents, and maintains total nurse staffing hours per resident per day of 3 hours 49 minutes, above both the New York state average of 3 hours 34 minutes and the national average.
Named programs include a Diabetes Management and Education Program, an Amputee Rehabilitation Program, Telemetry Monitoring, Clinical Services, and a 30 Day Medicare Program. Additional confirmed clinical services include cardiology and vascular monitoring, wound care, and post-COVID-19 rehabilitation. Six confirmed amenities are on record: rooms, spa-like care, a bakery and cafe, outdoor gardens, a gym, and dining options.
Eight inspections have been conducted by the New York State Department of Health, producing 16 deficiencies and 12 total citations. The most recent, a complaint investigation on September 9, 2025, identified Level 2 deficiencies in care planning, infection control, pain management, and physician supervision, described as isolated without severe systemic patterns. Earlier inspections cited recurring issues in infection prevention and control, health safety network reporting, and some medication management and food safety matters, corrected in a timely manner. Sixty complaints have been filed, at a rate of 37.5 per 100 occupied beds, below the New York state average of 49.9. Two enforcement actions are on record from the New York State Department of Health: Stipulation and Order NH-16-168 (September 15, 2015) and Stipulation and Order NH-23-029 (September 9, 2022). No fines, immediate jeopardy findings, or license actions appear in the public record.
Northwell Health facilities are accessible within the broader South Shore region.
Families should ask directly about the specific corrective measures implemented following the September 2025 care planning and infection control deficiencies before placement.
Staffing hours breakdown
Daily nursing hours per resident by staff type, reported to CMS. Higher is generally better — compare this facility to state and national averages to see where staffing stands.
| Staff type | Hours / day | 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.
| 53m per day | ▲ 26% 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.
| 1h 8m per day | ▲ 48% 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 16m per day | ▲ 4% State avg: 2h 11m per day · National avg: 2h 20m per day |
|
Total Nursing (Weekend)
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 43m per day | ▲ 17% 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.
| 9m per day | ▲ 29% State avg: 7m per day · National avg: 4m per day |
|
RN (Weekend)
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.
| 28m per day | ■ Avg State avg: 28m per day · National avg: 28m per day |
