Elcor Nursing and Rehabilitation Center in Horseheads, NY

Overview of Elcor Nursing and Rehabilitation Center

Elcor Nursing and Rehabilitation Center has been open in Horseheads, New York, since 1965. The campus is made up of three connected buildings with 305 beds total. It handles a wide range of care. Short-term rehab for people healing after surgery or illness. Long-term nursing care. Memory care for residents with dementia or Alzheimer’s. Independent living, too.

Elcor accepts both Medicare and Medicaid, so families have more than one way to cover costs. As for getting around the neighborhood, the area has a Walk Score of 62. That’s “moderately walkable.” Not perfect, but you could walk to grab a few things nearby.

Staffing numbers here are specific, not vague. Registered nurses average about 19 minutes with each resident daily. Licensed practical nurses put in close to 45 minutes. Nurse aides log around 2 hours and 4 minutes. These are real, measured figures, worth asking about on a tour.

There’s more to the campus than medical care alone. Residents can get physical therapy, occupational therapy, speech-language therapy, dental care, and regular physician visits, all on-site. Day to day, there are religious services, a beauty parlor, courtyards for sitting outside, and planned activities meant to keep residents engaged. Meals come from special menus, not a single cafeteria line everyone has to eat from.

New York’s Department of Health inspects nursing homes like Elcor without any advance warning. Inspectors look at infection control, emergency readiness, food service, cleanliness, and how well a facility protects resident rights. Every nursing home in the state gets checked on these same things.

Elcor has been running a long time, and it does a lot under one roof. Rehab, long-term care, and memory care all share the same campus. The staffing figures are laid out, not hidden. And for families who want to walk around the neighborhood while visiting, that’s realistic here too.

Staffing hours breakdown

Hours per resident per day — compared to New York state averages

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.	19m per day	▼ 55% 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.	45m per day	■ Avg 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 4m per day	▼ 5% 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.	2h 42m 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.	5m per day	▼ 29% 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.	8m per day	▼ 71% State avg: 28m per day · National avg: 28m per day
