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.

Frequently Asked Questions about Assisted Living in New Hampshire
What's the difference between assisted living and memory care in New Hampshire?
Assisted living in New Hampshire supports residents with daily activities (bathing, dressing, medication management) while preserving independence. Memory care is a specialized form of assisted living for residents living with Alzheimer's or dementia, and adds 24/7 secured environments, dementia-trained staff, and structured routines designed to reduce confusion and wandering.
What's the difference between assisted living and a nursing home in New Hampshire?
Assisted living in New Hampshire is a residential model focused on housing, hospitality, and help with daily activities. Nursing homes (skilled nursing facilities) provide 24/7 medical care from licensed nurses for residents with significant health needs, and are regulated more strictly under both state and federal CMS rules.
Does New Hampshire Medicaid cover assisted living?
New Hampshire Medicaid does not directly pay room-and-board for assisted living, but most states (including New Hampshire) offer Home and Community-Based Services (HCBS) waivers that can offset the cost of care services delivered inside a licensed community. Eligibility, waitlists, and covered services vary — check directly with the state Medicaid agency.
What is assisted living?
Assisted living combines private or semi-private apartments with help on activities of daily living (meals, bathing, dressing, medication management) and a social calendar — for residents who need some support but do not need 24/7 medical care.
How many assisted living facilities are listed on this page?
This page features 141 assisted living facilities in New Hampshire. Use the filters and comparison tools above to compare ratings, amenities, and pricing.
How do I choose the right assisted living facility in New Hampshire?
Start by matching the level of care offered to the resident's current and anticipated needs, then compare licensing status, staff-to-resident ratios, recent inspection results, and pricing. Tour at least two or three communities in New Hampshire, talk to current residents and families, and confirm what is included in the base rate versus billed as add-on services.
What should I look for when visiting assisted living facilities in New Hampshire?
Pay attention to staff interactions with residents, cleanliness and odor, food quality at meal times, the activity calendar, and how questions about pricing and care plans are answered. Ask to see the most recent state inspection report, the move-out / level-of-care-change policy, and a sample monthly bill that lists every fee.
