Located in a safe and quiet neighborhood in South Brooklyn and right next to the D train (18th Ave station), Bensonhurst Center for Rehabilitation & Healthcare is a faith-based boutique recovery and skilled nursing center serving the diverse Brooklyn since 1974. Through the years, Bensonhurst Canter has built a stellar reputation for its quality of care and excellence in complex care management and physical rehabilitation, with the unique ability to serve people from multi-cultural backgrounds. Their staff speaks Russian, Cantonese/Mandarin, and Hebrew, reflecting the cultural mix of the neighborhood.
Masterfully skilled at stroke and post-surgical care, their highly experienced team of physical therapists works with each resident up to 7 days a week to improve strength and restore function through the use of therapeutic exercises. In addition, the rehabilitation program puts special emphasis on “pain management” so that each resident can maximize their potential in a comfortable, safe, and cozy manner. The occupational therapy program is aimed at improving fine motor, coordination, and cognitive skills and teaches functional and self-care skills commonly referred to as activities of daily living (ADL), which include feeding, dressing, and grooming.
They employ a diverse and dedicated nursing team that speaks many languages to serve the growing immigrant needs, with certified wound care on-site. And the recreation department is one of the best in the business.
Bensonhurst Center offers a variety of skilled nursing care, such as IV therapy, PICC line therapy, wound care/wound vac, post-surgery care, and more. The caring social work and case management team provides continuous support to both the residents and their families to ensure their well-being, and a safe
and appropriate return to the community.
Served by a dedicated and hard-working healthcare concierge team, Bensonhurst Center was voted the famed “Best of Brooklyn” under both nursing home and rehabilitation center categories in 2023, and the United Chinese Association of Brooklyn named it “Nursing Home of the Year” in 2022. Bensonhurst Center is being recognized as a “Best in Skill Nursing” by Assisted Living Magazine.

This home is ranked 335th out of 347 homes in New York.| 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.
| 46m per day | ▲ 10% 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.
| 44m per day | ▼ 4% 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.
| 2h 14m per day | ■ Avg State avg: 2h 11m per day · National avg: 2h 21m 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.
| 3h 22m per day | ▲ 6% 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.
| 8m per day | ▲ 14% State avg: 7m 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.
| 31m per day | ▲ 11% State avg: 28m per day · National avg: 29m per day |

An editor-reviewed summary of the themes and findings across this facility's recent inspection reports.
The most recent inspection on January 31, 2025, identified deficiencies related to transfer and discharge notifications, incomplete care plans, pressure ulcer prevention, and insufficient nursing staff coverage, especially on weekends. Earlier inspections showed similar issues with care planning and resident participation, as well as concerns about accurate resident assessments and medication and food service practices. Complaint investigations in February 2023 substantiated problems with Minimum Data Set assessments and resident involvement in care planning. Enforcement actions or fines were not listed in the available reports. The pattern of deficiencies suggests ongoing challenges in care planning and staffing, with no clear improvement trend evident.
