Overview of Hanover Hill Health Care Center

Hanover Hill Health Care Center has been a fixture on Hanover Street in Manchester for over 55 years, setting it apart from many other facilities in New Hampshire. It’s tucked into the Hanover Hill neighborhood, about a mile and a half from downtown. The area is moderately walkable, with a Walk Score of 59, so you’ll likely want a car for some errands, but it’s not isolated. The center is led by owner and president Theodore Lee and administrator Lori McIntire.

The facility has 124 beds and offers a broad spectrum of support, including nursing home care, memory care, palliative care, and respite care. With 116 beds currently filled (94% occupancy), the facility shows strong operational stability. The average stay is about 121 days, which reflects a thoughtful mix of residents; some are moving through post-acute rehabilitation, while others rely on the center for long-term support. Because they house both memory and palliative services under one roof, the facility is well-equipped to handle resident needs as they shift over time.

Staffing is available 24/7. On average, residents receive 3 hours and 28 minutes of daily nursing care, comprised of 31 minutes from RNs and 2 hours and 32 minutes from nurse aides. The facility’s rehabilitation and short-term programs are also bolstered by physical therapists. It’s especially important that they have an active Resident Council; it offers residents a structured way to stay involved in how the facility operates and gives them a genuine voice in their daily environment.

State inspections have focused on key areas like medication management, infection prevention, and the quality of care planning and documentation. The facility accepts Medicare, Medicaid, and private pay.

If you’re looking for nursing home care in Manchester, Hanover Hill is a well-established location. It’s a solid choice for families who need a facility with a long history and the flexibility to provide memory care alongside standard long-term and post-acute services.
