This home is ranked 6th out of 258 homes in New Jersey.| Staff type | Hours / day | vs state avg |
|---|---|---|
|
Registered Nurse (RN)
RNs hold the highest nursing license and can assess residents, interpret test results, and direct care plans. More RN hours per day often signals stronger clinical oversight and faster response to health changes.
| 57m per day | ▲ 39% State avg: 41m per day · National avg: 41m per day |
|
LPN / LVN
Licensed Practical Nurses (LPNs) or Licensed Vocational Nurses (LVNs) deliver routine hands-on care — medication administration, wound dressing, and monitoring vital signs. They work under RN supervision and make up a large share of daily bedside care.
| 42m per day | ▼ 25% State avg: 56m per day · National avg: 52m per day |
|
Nurse Aide
Certified Nurse Aides (CNAs) provide the most direct day-to-day assistance: bathing, dressing, feeding, and mobility. Nurse aide hours are typically the largest staffing category and directly affect residents' quality of life.
| 3h 2m per day | ▲ 36% State avg: 2h 14m per day · National avg: 2h 20m per day |
|
Total Nursing (Weekend)
Combined nursing hours (RN + LPN + Nurse Aide) per resident per day on weekends. Staffing often drops on weekends — this figure reveals whether the facility maintains adequate coverage outside of weekday hours.
| 4h 29m per day | ▲ 30% State avg: 3h 27m per day · National avg: 3h 26m per day |
|
Physical Therapist
Hours per resident per day provided by licensed Physical Therapists (PTs) or PT Assistants. PT services help residents recover mobility after injury or illness and are especially important for post-acute (short-stay) rehabilitation.
| 5m per day | ▼ 17% State avg: 6m per day · National avg: 4m per day |
|
RN (Weekend)
Registered nurse hours specifically on weekends. Facilities sometimes reduce RN presence on Saturdays and Sundays — a low weekend RN figure compared to weekday hours can indicate reduced clinical oversight when most administrative staff are absent.
| 42m per day | ▲ 45% State avg: 29m per day · National avg: 28m per day |
Most residents typically stay for a few weeks or months before returning home or moving on.

In New Jersey, the Department of Health, Health Facilities Evaluation and Licensing conducts mandatory unannounced surveys to ensure facilities provide safe and effective resident care.
The data displayed corresponds to the last 6 years.
Inspections are mandatory, regular evaluations conducted by state health departments or regulatory agencies. They ensure the community provides safe, compliant care, covering areas like resident health, staff and management.

Deficiencies indicate regulatory issues. A higher number implies the facility had several areas requiring improvement.
New Jersey average: 18 deficiencies
The most recent inspection on November 19, 2025, did not identify any deficiencies and focused on informing individuals about privacy practices. Earlier inspections showed a mix of compliance and cited deficiencies, including a July 9, 2024, survey that noted issues with emergency preparedness training, resident privacy, staff licensing, medication management, infection control, and safety features. Complaint investigations mostly found the facility in compliance, though a substantiated case in November 2021 involved failure to report an injury to nursing staff. No fines, immediate jeopardy findings, or license actions were listed in the available reports. The inspection history suggests some improvement over time, with the most recent surveys showing no deficiencies after prior citations.
