Overview of Cheshire House

Cheshire House, a 75-bed nursing facility located at 3396 East Main Street in Waterbury’s East Farms neighborhood, serves residents requiring skilled nursing care and short-term rehabilitation. The facility is located 3.9 miles from Waterbury’s city center and 4.33 miles from UConn Health Waterbury Hospital. It maintains a 95% occupancy rate; the ninth-highest among Connecticut nursing homes, and has been in continuous operation for 16 years.

The facility achieved a 4-star rating for staffing, with total nursing care of 4 hours per resident daily and licensed practical nurses providing 1 hour 15 minutes per resident daily, 50% above the Connecticut average. These figures rank the facility 23rd of 66 Connecticut SNFs for overall nursing intensity. However, the 2-star overall rating reflects weaker health inspection performance (2 stars, 35.3% below state average) and significantly below-average quality measures (1 star, 44.9% below state average). The facility operates with a 2-star health inspection rating.

Over seven years, Cheshire House has accumulated 124 regulatory deficiencies; 553% above the Connecticut average. Inspection findings cluster around resident rights, care quality, and abuse-reporting protocols. Recent 2025 investigations substantiated failures in timely abuse allegation reporting, inadequate supervision of residents with aspiration risk during meals, and delays in notifying families of condition changes. The facility reported corrections for all cited violations; no federal civil money penalties or admission payment denials were imposed in the past three years.

The resident census reflects a short-term care model: average stays of 65 days overall, with Medicare admissions averaging 23 days and private-pay admissions averaging one month. Current population stands at 71 residents (Medicaid 64.8%, Private Pay 29.6%, Medicare 5.6%).

Discharge data shows 61.6% of short-stay residents achieve successful return to home or community; 22% better than the state average, though 31.1% experience re-hospitalization after SNF discharge, 24% above state average.

The facility maintains an operating loss of $784,200 against revenue of $12.9 million (2023).

Private room rates are $525 per day; semi-private rooms cost $495 daily. The facility operates an active resident council and provides staff multilingual services in French, Jamaican, Polish, Portuguese, and Spanish.

Cheshire House accommodates residents seeking skilled nursing and post-acute rehabilitation in the Waterbury area, particularly Medicare and Medicaid populations, within a high-occupancy facility whose compliance record warrants family engagement in care oversight.

Staff typeHours / Day / Residentvs state avg
Registered Nurse (RN) Info 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. 40m per day ▼ 5% State avg: 42m per day · National avg: 41m per day
LPN / LVN Info 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 6m per day ▲ 32% State avg: 50m per day · National avg: 52m per day
