CMS (Centers for Medicare & Medicaid Services, the federal agency that regulates nursing homes) Overall 5-star rating — a composite of Health Inspection, Staffing, and Quality Measures scores. 5 stars = top 10% nationally. 1 star = bottom 10%. The single most important number to start with when comparing facilities.
Care Types in This Table NH (Nursing Home): 24/7 skilled nursing care for residents with complex, ongoing medical needs. SNF (Skilled Nursing Facility): Round-the-clock nursing care, often for recovery after surgery, injury, or illness. RC (Respite Care): Short-term temporary care that gives family caregivers a break. HC (Home Care): Professional care delivered in the person's own home, from companionship to skilled nursing. HOS (Hospice Care): Comfort-focused care for those with a terminal illness, prioritizing quality of life over treatment. PC (Palliative Care): Comfort-focused care for serious illness at any stage, including alongside curative treatment.
Neighborhood or city area where the facility is located. Proximity to family, hospitals, and green space matters for both quality of life and ease of visitation. Consider drive time and transit access when evaluating location.
Licensed bed capacity. Larger facilities (300+ beds) often have more specialized programs but can feel institutional. Smaller homes (under 150 beds) tend to deliver more personalized care. Compare with Avg Res/Day to understand how full the facility typically runs.
Percentage of licensed beds filled on an average day. Color indicates financial health: green (90%+) = operationally strong, typically profitable. Amber (80–89%) = stable but leaving revenue on the table. Orange (70–79%) = financial strain likely, may struggle with fixed costs. Red (<70%) = significant distress, closure or ownership change risk increases sharply.
This facility's occupancy rate compared to the statewide average for similar facilities. A positive number means above-average demand. Facilities running 5%+ above the state average are typically the most sought-after in their market — a strong proxy for reputation.
CMS-adjusted total nurse hours per resident per day (RN + LPN + CNA combined). The national average is approximately 3.5 hrs. Higher is better — more direct care time per resident. Below 3.0 is a red flag. CMS weights RN hours more heavily because RNs handle complex clinical decisions that CNAs cannot.
CMS Health Inspection star rating (1–5 stars), based on the 3 most recent annual state surveys plus any complaint investigations. This is the hardest rating to manipulate — it reflects real surveyor findings on-site. 5 stars = fewest deficiencies found. 1 star = most. It carries the heaviest weight in the Overall CMS rating.
CMS Staffing star rating (1–5 stars), based on daily nurse staffing hours submitted to CMS via verified payroll data. Compares RN, LPN, and CNA coverage relative to resident acuity level. 5 stars = well above expected staffing. Weekend staffing is evaluated separately, as that's where many facilities quietly reduce coverage.
CMS Quality Measures star rating (1–5 stars), based on 15 clinical outcome metrics including fall rates, pressure ulcers, antipsychotic drug use, and hospital readmissions. Captures actual resident health outcomes, not just compliance. High QM combined with low Health Inspection scores can indicate a facility with strong care but weak documentation practices.
Registered Nurse hours per resident/day compared to the statewide average. RNs are the highest-skilled nursing staff — they assess residents, manage medications, and respond to emergencies. A value of +50% means RN coverage is 50% above the state norm. Negative values are a concern for residents with complex or acute medical needs.
Total nursing staff hours (RN + LPN + CNA combined) per resident/day vs. the statewide average. A broader measure than RN vs State — it captures the entire care team. A facility can have high total staffing but low RN hours, meaning more aides and fewer nurses. Read both columns together for the full picture.
Total dollar amount of federal monetary fines (civil money penalties) issued by CMS in the past 3 years. Fines are only levied for serious violations — typically actual harm to residents, repeated uncorrected deficiencies, or systemic non-compliance. Even a single fine is noteworthy. Multiple fines strongly suggest a pattern, not isolated incidents.
Total health deficiency citations from the most recent standard inspection cycle. Minor citations (scope A–C) are common and often administrative in nature. Higher counts aren't always disqualifying, but should be read alongside Severe Citations to understand actual harm levels. Under 10 is strong for a large facility; 30+ warrants a closer look.
Average deficiency citations per CMS inspection (survey) in the reporting window — total citations divided by the number of inspections. Lower is better; compare alongside total Citations and Severe Citations for context.
Citations at CMS scope/severity level G or higher — G–I means actual harm occurred; J–L means residents were placed in immediate jeopardy. (D–F is potential for harm only). Examples include unaddressed falls, medication errors causing injury, neglect, or abuse.
Average number of residents in the building on any given day, derived from annual census data. Reflects true operating scale — a 400-bed facility running 200 residents/day operates very differently from one at 390. Higher resident counts generally mean more funded staffing hours.
Better Business Bureau rating (A+ to F). Reflects complaint history, business transparency, and how family disputes were resolved. A+ means no significant unresolved complaints. A blank (—) means the facility isn't BBB-accredited, which is common for healthcare providers and not necessarily a negative signal.
Walk Score® (0–100). Measures walkability of the surrounding area. 90–100 = Walker's Paradise. 70–89 = Very Walkable. 50–69 = Somewhat Walkable. Below 50 = Car-Dependent. Higher scores benefit family visitors, resident outings, and staff commuting.
The licensed owner or operator of record filed with CMS — the individual or organization legally accountable for the facility. Searching the operator name across other facilities can reveal chain or multi-site ownership, which matters: chain-operated homes tend to have more variable quality outcomes than independently run facilities.
What the home actually collects for resident care, after contractual allowances, bad debt and discounts — not gross billings. Taken from the latest complete annual cost report, so it is comparable across homes reporting the same period. Revenue alone doesn't indicate care quality, but it funds staffing and capital reinvestment. Pair with Payroll %. Figures are from each facility's most recent complete fiscal year — hover a value for the exact year; a * marks homes that report an older period than most facilities.
Staff salaries plus wage-related benefits from the latest complete annual cost report. Contract and agency labour is counted separately, under other operating costs, so a home leaning on agency staff can show a low figure here. Payroll is the cost most directly tied to care quality — compare with Payroll % for full context. Figures are from each facility's most recent complete fiscal year — hover a value for the exact year; a * marks homes that report an older period than most facilities.
Payroll as a share of NET PATIENT REVENUE (not gross revenue). Both figures come from the same cost-report year. A higher figure means more of each revenue dollar goes to staff pay. Read with the Staffing star rating to judge whether spend translates into coverage — and note that homes whose patient revenue covers only part of their operation can read implausibly high. The New York average is: 55.7% Figures are from each facility's most recent complete fiscal year — hover a value for the exact year; a * marks homes that report an older period than most facilities.

Short term rehabilitation helps a resident work toward recovery after an illness, injury, or hospital stay, while respite care may suit a family caregiver who needs temporary coverage while traveling or recovering. Nursing services are available for people recovering as well as for those who require ongoing care.

Opened in 1970, the home has 200 beds. Total nurse staffing is 3 hours and 7 minutes per resident per day, representing the daily nursing time allocated to each resident. Complex Medical & Nursing Services and consulting medical specialists support residents with complex medical needs and specialist consultations.

Residents can receive dialysis onsite rather than traveling elsewhere for treatment. Registered dietitians provide nutritional management to meet dietary requirements, and therapeutic recreation adds organized recreational activities. Medicaid, Medicare, and private pay are accepted: Medicare is used for short term skilled care after a hospital stay rather than long term residence, Medicaid may apply when savings do not cover a long stay, and private pay allows direct payment.

At 504 beds, it’s among the larger rehabilitation and nursing centers in the area and operates at near-full capacity, with a 97 percent occupancy rate. The community welcomes Medicare, Medicaid, and private pay, so families have multiple ways to fund short-term rehabilitation stays and ongoing nursing care. With a Walk Score of 84, the location is highly walkable, making it easy for visiting families and local staff to navigate the surrounding neighborhood.

The center’s clinical focus is rehabilitation and short-term recovery, anchored by 24-hour staffing and an on-site physician.

Overview of Concord Nursing and Rehabilitation Center

Concord Nursing and Rehabilitation Center sits at 300 Madison Street in Brooklyn, a 140-bed facility in one of the borough’s most walkable pockets. A Walk Score of 99 means almost anything a visiting family member needs, a pharmacy, a coffee run, a subway stop, is within a short walk. That matters more than it sounds like it should when you’re the one making the trip three times a week.

The building is nearly full: 139 of its 140 beds are occupied right now. That kind of occupancy usually tracks with steady demand and a facility that’s doing something right operationally, even if it doesn’t tell you everything about quality of care. What it does mean practically is that availability may be tight.

Nursing coverage is where the numbers get more specific. Residents average 2 hours and 38 minutes of total nursing care daily, a mix of RN, LPN, and aide hours. Doctors are on staff, and the building runs 24-hour staffing, so there’s no gap in coverage overnight. Concord also runs a program it calls RehabStrong, paired with a structured nutrition program, alongside its short-term rehab track for people recovering from surgery or a hospital stay.

On the regulatory side, New York’s Department of Health inspects nursing homes like this one through its Office of Aging and Long Term Care. Inspections here have tended to circle back to medication management, infection control, environmental safety, and how well care planning gets documented, which are the same handful of areas regulators check at nursing homes across the state.

Medicare, Medicaid, and private pay are all accepted, so the financial paths in aren’t limited to one type of coverage. Put simply: this is a facility built around short-term recovery and round-the-clock nursing support, running close to capacity, in a part of Brooklyn where getting around on foot is genuinely easy.
