Situated on Court Street in Laconia, New Hampshire, St Francis Rehab and Nursing Center operates as a 51-bed nursing home. The property accepts Medicare, Medicaid, and private pay options to cover resident costs. For visitors, the surrounding neighborhood is car-dependent, with a walkability score of 4 out of 100, meaning family members will need a personal vehicle to reach the property or manage local errands.
Resident stays average roughly 238 days, reflecting an operational footprint centered heavily on permanent or extended nursing placement alongside transitional care. To handle these daily clinical routines, around-the-clock staffing delivers an average of 4 hours and 41 minutes of total nursing care per resident each day, which includes 3 hours and 24 minutes of direct assistance from nurse aides. This team coordinates short-term post-hospital therapy, temporary respite care, and palliative support.
State health department inspection logs show that the facility operates within standard regulatory guidelines for care delivery and environmental safety. Oversight records confirm that the property maintains a consistent compliance track record, resulting in a cumulative citations-per-inspection rate of zero.
