Overview of Sea Crest Nursing and Rehabilitation Center

Sea Crest Nursing and Rehabilitation Center is a 305-bed facility in Brooklyn’s Coney Island neighborhood that provides post-acute rehabilitation and long-term skilled care. The building maintains a steady 90% occupancy rate, with residents across Medicare, Medicaid, and private-pay sources averaging a 99-day length of stay. Daily services cover physical, occupational, and cardiac therapies alongside enteral nutrition and structured recreation programs. The surrounding neighborhood is highly walkable, scoring an 88 on local walkability charts, and business records indicate a stable operation with a 1.3% profit margin.

Public health databases show a heavy investment in professional nursing coverage despite leaner overall staffing hours. Registered nurse time averages 1 hour and 7 minutes per resident daily, which runs 60% higher than the New York state average, while total combined nursing hours track 18% below the state norm. This targeted clinical focus aligns with positive short-term rehab outcomes, where residents beat the state benchmark for self-care improvement at discharge by 57%. On the regulatory side, the home recorded 15 citations over a three-year period, matching the state average of about 5 per year, with zero federal fines or high-severity enforcement penalties on record.

The most recent standard inspection in August 2025 flagged minor to moderate deficiencies regarding care plan timing, kitchen sanitation, posted nurse staffing logs, electrical systems, and sprinkler maintenance, repeating administrative and life-safety themes from prior cycles that the operator consistently corrected within a few months.

Prospective residents weighing local skilled care or short-term physical rehab options can utilize these state monitoring summaries to analyze the home’s daily baseline. Since the public data reports strong short-term recovery success and excellent registered nurse hours alongside typical citation rates and standard physical plant corrections, the files indicate a balanced, highly capable clinical environment.
