Overview of United Helpers Canton Nursing Home

United Helpers Canton Nursing Home is a skilled nursing facility in Canton, New York, operated by United Helpers Management Company Inc, a voluntary nonprofit serving St. Lawrence County for over 50 years. The 96-bed facility accepts Medicare, Medicaid, and private pay. About 72% of admissions come through Medicare for short-term rehabilitation stays.

CMS gives the facility 4 stars overall, about 27% above New York averages. The facility holds a 5-star Health Inspection rating and a 4-star Staffing rating. Nurse staffing averages 3 hours and 43 minutes per resident per day, about 7% above state averages. The facility’s 1-star Quality Measures rating reflects weaker long-stay outcomes, including higher rates of UTIs and antipsychotic medication use compared with New York benchmarks. Those measures may be less relevant for the majority of residents who arrive for short post-acute stays.

Across three inspections since 2019, the facility recorded 17 total citations. All were moderate in severity, with no critical or serious deficiencies. No enforcement actions have been taken, and no complaints have been substantiated in the past seven years.

The August 2024 survey identified deficiencies involving medication labeling, maintenance of electrical and gas equipment, and sprinkler system testing; all deficiencies were corrected. With far fewer inspections than the New York average of nine, the number of citations per survey is high. At the same time, the absence of fines or substantiated complaints is a favorable signal within the facility’s record.

Short-stay outcomes are one of the facility’s strengths. Rehospitalization rates after a skilled nursing stay are 17.5%, about 15% better than New York averages. About 60.6% of short-stay residents successfully return home, which is 20% above the state rate.

The facility runs an on-site Nurse Aide Training program and maintains an Active Resident Council.

United Helpers Canton Nursing Home may fit residents seeking Medicare-funded post-acute rehabilitation in St. Lawrence County, especially those planning for shorter stays and return to the community.

6 of 6 metrics below state avg

Staff typeHours / Day / Residentvs state avg
Registered Nurse (RN) Info 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. 39m per day ▼ 6% State avg: 42m per day · National avg: 41m per day
LPN / LVN Info 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 ▼ 21% State avg: 46m per day · National avg: 52m per day
Nurse Aide Info 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. 1h 57m per day ▼ 11% State avg: 2h 11m per day · National avg: 2h 20m per day
Weekend Total Nursing Info 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 37m per day ▼ 17% State avg: 3h 10m per day · National avg: 3h 26m per day
Physical Therapist Info 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. 6m per day ▼ 9% State avg: 7m per day · National avg: 4m per day
Weekend RN Info 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. 21m per day ▼ 25% State avg: 28m per day · National avg: 28m per day
