King David Center

2266 Cropsey Ave, Brooklyn, NY 11214
Overview of King David Center

King David Center for Nursing and Rehabilitation operates 271 beds in a high-rise building at 2266 Cropsey Avenue in Brooklyn. Operated as a voluntary nonprofit by Arthur New, the facility serves a balanced mix of Medicare (50% of admissions), private-pay (49%), and Medicaid (1%) residents, with current occupancy at 98% and average stays of 193 days. Administrator David Schoenblum leads operations with a clinical team spanning nursing, therapy, social work, dietary, and maintenance.

Specialized care offerings span skilled nursing, memory care, and rehabilitation. The facility operates cardiac rehabilitation, orthopedic rehabilitation, neurological rehabilitation, robotics and technology programs, plus therapeutic gardens. Physical plant amenities include an aqua therapy pool, robotics suite, rehabilitation gym, and fine dining.

Clinical staffing reaches 3 hours 21 minutes of nursing per resident per day, 11.1% above New York average, with registered nurse hours 31% above state average. CMS ratings are uniformly strong: 5-star overall (59.2% above state), health inspection 40.8% above average, staffing 11.1% above average, quality measures 26.6% above average.

Long-stay residents demonstrate exceptional clinical outcomes: functional decline of 7.5 (59% better than state), urinary tract infections at 0.3% (76% better), depression symptoms in 3.4% (81% better), and activities of daily living decline at only 9.5% (42% better than state). Short-stay rehabilitation discharge outcomes show 71.5% of residents achieving expected self-care ability (33% better than state).

Recent complaint investigations contradict the strong ratings. December 2025 inspection documentation identified four substantive deficiencies: environmental maintenance failures including ripped window screens and metal staples in resident units, failure to timely report three residents’ abuse allegations to the state within required timeframes, incomplete care plan revisions for residents’ behavioral and wandering risks, and food safety violations (bare hand contact with food, expired food items, staff without proper hair covering). An earlier January 2024 complaint survey identified six deficiencies: absent resident participation in care plan development, non-functional call bell in a resident’s bathroom, inaccurate baseline assessments, staffing information not posted, dietary preferences ignored, and missing hospice documentation. The inspection summary explicitly states the facility shows “a pattern of issues” and “deficiencies have persisted over time with similar themes, indicating ongoing challenges” in care planning, assessments, dietary compliance, and maintenance.

Zero critical violations and zero federal enforcement actions appear in regulatory history.

The facility generated $67.4 million in gross revenue in 2023 with a 4.1% profit margin, ranking 40th in New York for total revenue and demonstrating financial stability.

The community is situated in an urban area with a walk score of 91, indicating a walker’s paradise within easy reach of shops and services. Maimonides Medical Center lies 3.03 miles away.

The facility’s 5-star rating reflects strong clinical outcomes and staffing investment, yet recent inspections document persistent failures in care planning, abuse reporting, environmental maintenance, and food safety; operational deficiencies that suggest systemic supervision gaps despite high resource allocation.
