Overview of Complete Care at Westfield At 1515 Lamberts Mill Road in Westfield, Union County, New Jersey 07090, Complete Care at Westfield operates a 227-bed nursing home licensed through January 31, 2027. Privately owned by Complete Care at Westfield, LLC and administered by Mr. Yosef Cohen, the facility is located 4.6 miles from the city center in a somewhat walkable neighborhood where most trips require transportation (walk score 33).
Ranked 39th of 559 New Jersey nursing homes by bed count, the community functions as a large-scale facility capable of supporting diverse clinical needs and programs. Residents stay an average of 118 days. Current census stands at 133 residents in 227 licensed beds (59% occupancy), running 18 percentage points below New Jersey’s average of 77%.
The facility delivers memory care, hospice care, nursing home services, and post-acute rehabilitation. Resident payment includes Medicare, Medicaid, and private pay options. Care services encompass 24-hour staffing, rehabilitation services, respite care, short-term rehabilitation, and equipment including Hoyer lifts.
The facility holds a 3-star CMS overall rating reflecting mixed performance across inspection, staffing, and quality-measure categories.
Staffing provides 3 hours 39 minutes of total nursing care per resident per day, 7% below the state average. Licensed practical nurses deliver 59 minutes of care per resident daily, 5% above state average and a relative strength. Registered nurse coverage on weekends presents a concern: 13 minutes per day, 55% below the state average of 29 minutes, indicating substantial reduction in clinical oversight during non-business hours.
Inspection history since 2021 reveals significant compliance challenges. The facility recorded 71 total deficiencies across 15 inspections; 294% above the state average of 3.6 per year. Deficiencies cluster around staffing ratios (violations documented on all shifts reviewed), medication management (6.9% error rate), infection control practices, and life safety code requirements affecting fire alarm systems and emergency preparedness.
Complaint investigations substantiated abuse allegations involving staff in 2025, with documented failure to report within required timeframes.
A February 2023 inspection identified immediate jeopardy due to failure to prevent resident-to-resident abuse; the incident resulted in serious injury and resident death.
The most recent November 20, 2025 inspection reported zero deficiencies, marking improvement after a prolonged period of substantial regulatory findings.
The facility serves nursing home, memory care, and hospice populations in a large institutional setting where residents require active clinical management and structured programming.
