Doctors Subacute Healthcare, LLC is a compact, 54-bed subacute rehab center on Birch Street in Paterson, New Jersey. Owned by Barbara Andrews and run by administrator Robert Wegh, the building stays busy with a 91 percent occupancy rate. People usually stay here for about 76 days, meaning the building functions as a short-term recovery hub for post-hospital therapy rather than a permanent nursing home. The facility is located in a busy urban area with a walk score of 90, so visitors can easily run errands on foot without needing a car.
An on-staff doctor and a 24-hour nursing team manage the medical floor, averaging 3 hours and 50 minutes of direct care for each resident daily. This crew handles intensive treatments like tracheostomy care, tube feeding, IV therapy, stroke recovery, and complex wound management. Patient rooms come with adjustable electric beds, bedside phones, and high-speed internet, and the kitchen staff cooks meals from scratch to meet strict post-op and cardiac diets.
Past state reviews pointed out issues with medication administration and care plan paperwork, prompting the management team to update their internal tracking systems. You can ask the nursing director to go over these past survey records with you during a tour to see how they handle quality control.
Prospective residents can get in touch with the main intake desk to see if a bed is open or to look over the admission paperwork.
Daily nursing hours per resident by staff type, reported to CMS. Higher is generally better — compare this facility to state and national averages to see where staffing stands.
| 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.
| 1h 3m per day | ▲ 54% 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.
| 37m per day | ▼ 34% 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.
| 2h 3m per day | ▼ 8% State avg: 2h 14m per day · National avg: 2h 21m 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 17m per day | ▼ 5% 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.
| 4m per day | ▼ 33% State avg: 6m 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.
| 41m per day | ▲ 41% State avg: 29m per day · National avg: 29m per day |
