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.
Situated on Court Street in Laconia, New Hampshire, St Francis Rehab and Nursing Center operates as a 51-bed nursing home. The property accepts Medicare, Medicaid, and private pay options to cover resident costs. For visitors, the surrounding neighborhood is car-dependent, with a walkability score of 4 out of 100, meaning family members will need a personal vehicle to reach the property or manage local errands.
Resident stays average roughly 238 days, reflecting an operational footprint centered heavily on permanent or extended nursing placement alongside transitional care. To handle these daily clinical routines, around-the-clock staffing delivers an average of 4 hours and 41 minutes of total nursing care per resident each day, which includes 3 hours and 24 minutes of direct assistance from nurse aides. This team coordinates short-term post-hospital therapy, temporary respite care, and palliative support.
State health department inspection logs show that the facility operates within standard regulatory guidelines for care delivery and environmental safety. Oversight records confirm that the property maintains a consistent compliance track record, resulting in a cumulative citations-per-inspection rate of zero.
Interested individuals will find a quiet, residential setting situated away from major urban centers. Meals are coordinated to meet individual dietary requirements and are served in a structured community dining space.

Frequently Asked Questions about Independent Living in New Hampshire
What is independent living?
Independent living communities are residential settings for active older adults — typically with private apartments or cottages, shared amenities (dining, fitness, activities), and no built-in medical care.
How many independent living communities are listed on this page?
This page features 46 independent living communities in New Hampshire. Use the filters and comparison tools above to compare ratings, amenities, and pricing.
How do I choose the right independent living community 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 independent living communities 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.
