Located at 45 Maltby Street in Shelton, Connecticut’s Maltby Street neighborhood, Hewitt Health & Rehabilitation Center operates as a 120-bed nursing home and memory care facility. The privately owned community accepts Medicare, Medicaid, and private-pay residents. Walk score of 74 positions the facility in a very walkable area where most errands are accessible on foot.
Current occupancy stands at 78.8% with an average resident stay of 73 days, supporting both short-term rehabilitation and longer-term admissions. The current census is 114 residents.
The facility holds a 2-star overall CMS rating, notably below Connecticut’s state average. Health inspection performance rates 2 stars, 28.5% below state benchmark. Staffing carries a 1-star rating, 38.4% below the Connecticut standard.
The most significant staffing constraint is registered nurse availability at only 17 minutes per resident daily, a dramatic 60% shortfall compared to the state average of 42 minutes. This gap in RN coverage directly impacts clinical assessment and response capacity. The facility’s overall staff-to-resident ratio of 1.21:1 underperforms the state average of 1.86:1 by 35%.
Residents experience elevated clinical event rates, particularly pressure ulcer development at 6.9% (51% worse than peers) and unintended weight loss affecting 10.4% of residents (66% above state rates). A prominent gap exists in preventive care: pneumococcal vaccination coverage reaches only 48.5%; substantially below the Connecticut average of 87.5%, and seasonal influenza vaccination only 68.5% compared to a state norm of 93.5%.
For short-stay rehabilitation residents, re-hospitalization rates hit 30.1%, 20% above the state average. Residents’ ability to move independently worsens in over one-fifth of long-stay cases.
Federal penalties have been minimal: cumulative fines of $18,000 trail the state average by 59%, with no payment denials.
Hewitt serves mixed-stay residents, supported by staffing levels substantially below state norms with particular gaps in nursing oversight and documented vaccine coverage deficiencies across the population.
