This home is ranked 330th out of 355 homes in New York.| 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.
| 36m per day | ▼ 14% 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.
| 19m per day | ▼ 59% 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 58m per day | ▼ 10% 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.
| 2h 41m per day | ▼ 15% 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.
| 6m 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.
| 27m per day | ▼ 4% 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 April 1, 2025, identified deficiencies related to resident abuse, specifically involving a licensed practical nurse pulling a combative resident into and out of an elevator, which was substantiated by video evidence and led to staff removal, suspension, police notification, and training. Earlier inspections showed a pattern of deficiencies in care planning, resident rights, environmental cleanliness, and assistance with activities of daily living, with issues such as failure to honor resident self-determination, unsafe and unsanitary conditions, and incomplete care for hearing impairments. Complaint investigations were mostly unsubstantiated except for the substantiated abuse case in the latest inspection. Enforcement actions such as fines or license suspensions were not listed in the available reports. The inspection history shows recurring challenges in resident care and environment, with corrective actions taken but no clear sustained improvement trend.
