Overview of Bayonne Medical Center Transitional Care Services
Bayonne Medical Center Transitional Care Services is a hospital-based skilled nursing and transitional care facility located in the Constable Hook neighborhood of Bayonne, New Jersey. Operated by Carepoint Health under the direction of administrator Ms. Deborah Petersen, the 17-room community offers a highly focused, clinical environment designed specifically for short-term recovery rather than long-term residential senior living.
The facility’s integration within a hospital campus gives residents direct access to acute clinical resources, while Jersey City Medical Center, the nearest hospital, sits approximately 4.67 miles away. The care model is built around a strong registered nurse presence relative to standard nursing facility averages. Daily, registered nurses provide an average of 3 hours and 13 minutes of care per resident, supplemented by 2 hours and 32 minutes from nurse aides and 42 minutes from licensed practical nurses.
The neighborhood has a walk score of 88, indicating a highly walkable environment where visiting family members can easily run errands on foot. State regulatory inspections show a citations-per-inspection rate of zero, indicating a consistent history of safety and administrative compliance.
Prospective residents and their families looking for short-term physical rehabilitation or post-hospital nursing support in Hudson County can contact the facility directly to discuss admission and recovery options.
Quality ratings
The Overall CMS Rating combines results from health inspections, staffing levels and quality measures. Health inspections carry the most weight. Staffing and quality scores can increase or decrease the final rating based on performance compared to state and national standards.
Based on the results of the facility's three most recent standard inspections and any complaint investigations. CMS reviews the number, scope, and severity of deficiencies, with more recent findings weighted more heavily.
Measures average nursing staff hours per resident per day, including Registered Nurses (RNs) and total nursing staff. Ratings are adjusted based on the level of care residents require and are compared to state and national benchmarks.
