Overview of Beacon Rehabilitation and Nursing Center

Serving residents across Queens County, Beacon Rehabilitation and Nursing Center is a skilled nursing facility in Rockaway Park, New York. The 120-bed community is owned and operated by OPOP, LLC under Miriam Kessler. It offers skilled nursing, short-term rehabilitation, memory care, wound care, and respite care, and accepts Medicare, Medicaid, and private pay.

CMS gives the facility a 4-star overall rating, about 27% above New York averages. The Health Inspection sub-rating also scores above the state benchmarks. RN staffing averages 53 minutes per resident per day, 26% above the state’s average of 42 minutes, a meaningful gap in licensed clinical oversight for a community handling higher-acuity residents.

The facility’s inspection record is more mixed. It receives an average of 13.5 deficiencies per year, 165% above New York’s average of 5.1. A March 2024 complaint investigation identified an actual-harm deficiency involving abuse and neglect, along with failures to investigate and report the incident properly. All were corrected by March 2024.

A separate February 2024 complaint investigation cited nine deficiencies involving care planning, resident rights, and life safety systems. Those findings were also corrected by spring 2024. Three enforcement actions have been in the facility’s record since 2017.

Residents have access to amenities including a courtyard and garden, private family rooms, a beauty and barber salon, and spiritual programming. Therapy, recreation, and cultural services are also available.

Beacon Rehabilitation and Nursing Center’s rehabilitation capacity, memory care unit, and long-term skilled nursing track are best suited for residents seeking a clinically supported placement in the Rockaway Park area of Queens.

Standout metric Weekend RN is +49% above state avg

Staff type	Hours / Day / Resident	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.	52m per day	▲ 24% State avg: 42m 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.	31m per day	▼ 33% State avg: 46m 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.	1h 56m per day	▼ 12% State avg: 2h 11m per day · National avg: 2h 20m per day
Weekend Total Nursing 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.	3h 2m per day	▼ 4% State avg: 3h 10m 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	▼ 32% State avg: 7m per day · National avg: 4m per day
Weekend RN 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	▲ 49% State avg: 28m per day · National avg: 28m per day
