This home is ranked 244th out of 258 homes in New Jersey.| Staff type | Hours / day | 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.
| 27m per day | ▼ 34% 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.
| 1h 22m per day | ▲ 46% 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 2m per day | ▼ 9% State avg: 2h 14m per day · National avg: 2h 20m 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.
| 3h 10m per day | ▼ 8% 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.
| 9m per day | ▲ 50% State avg: 6m 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.
| 14m per day | ▼ 52% State avg: 29m per day · National avg: 28m per day |
Most residents typically stay for a few weeks or months before returning home or moving on.

An editor-reviewed summary of the themes and findings across this facility's recent inspection reports.
The most recent inspection on November 20, 2025, did not identify any deficiencies. Earlier inspections showed a pattern of issues primarily related to staffing ratios and medication management, with some findings involving resident safety and documentation. Notably, in December 2024, an Immediate Jeopardy was cited due to the use of portable space heaters posing a fire hazard, which was resolved through removal and staff education. Several complaint investigations found substantiated deficiencies, especially concerning staffing shortfalls and medication error rates, but no fines or license actions were listed in the available reports. The facility’s record shows some improvement in recent inspections, with the latest survey free of citations after prior mixed results.
