Overview of Harris Hill Center

Harris Hill Center is an 85-bed nursing home, assisted living, and hospice care community at 20 Maitland Street in Concord, Merrimack County, New Hampshire. Amy Auletto owns and operates the facility; Andrea Sherwin serves as administrator. Accepting Medicare, Medicaid, and private pay, the community sits less than a mile from New Hampshire Hospital; pets are permitted.

Four inspections by the New Hampshire Department of Health and Human Services since 2023 produced 23 deficiencies, 35% above the state average, with no improvement trend identified. A June 2024 complaint investigation found that a staff member administered insulin to one resident using another resident’s pen, risking bloodborne and bacterial pathogen transmission. A $16,000 civil money penalty followed; the 2-star CMS overall rating reflects an inspection sub-rating well below the New Hampshire benchmark. Total nursing care runs 3h 36m per resident per day, against a state average of 4h 13m.

A third-floor dementia unit serves residents with memory care needs; clinical nurse specialists, nurse practitioners, mental health service workers, and qualified social workers round out the care team. Physical, occupational, and speech language therapy are provided on site, alongside a team of seven respiratory therapy technicians. An Active Resident Council and a state-approved Nurse Aide Training and Competency Evaluation Program operate on site. Private and semi-private rooms fill the 3-story building, and occupancy stands at 93%, above the New Hampshire average of 81%.

Harris Hill Center’s nursing, hospice, and rehabilitative services orient it toward residents in Concord seeking short-term post-acute care or ongoing skilled nursing support.

Frequently Asked Questions about Memory Care 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.

Does New Hampshire Medicaid cover memory care?

New Hampshire Medicaid does not directly pay room-and-board for memory care, 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 memory care?
