Wesley Health Care Center INC is a 342-bed nonprofit skilled nursing facility in Saratoga Springs, New York, providing long-term care, memory care, short-term rehabilitation, and respite care, drawing residents from across Saratoga County. The facility is operated by United Methodist Health and Housing Inc.
CMS rates the facility at 2 stars overall — 36% below the New York average — a figure driven primarily by its Health Inspection sub-rating. The recent deficiency record, however, tells a different story: across four inspections since 2021, the facility averaged roughly two citations per year, 61% below the New York state average of 5.1. The most recent inspection in August 2023 identified two deficiencies: radiology notification and pressure ulcer treatment, both of which were corrected. No fines, immediate jeopardy findings, or substantiated complaints appear in the inspection record.
The facility stands out in staffing. Nurse staffing averages 4 hours and 21 minutes per resident per day — about 25% above the New York average of 3 hours and 29 minutes — placing Wesley 55th among 388 New York skilled nursing facilities. Payroll represents 63.8% of revenue, ranking in the top 45 statewide, which reflects consistent investment in direct-care staff rather than contract labor.
The facility’s occupancy rate is 81%, below New York’s average of 88.3%, which suggests current bed availability. The resident population is heavily Medicaid-based — roughly 71% of current residents — while Medicare accounts for 37% of new admissions, with a 25-day average stay.
On-site services include short-term rehabilitation, outpatient therapies, and a Nurse Aide Training and Competency Evaluation Program.
Wesley Health Care Center suits both long-term Medicaid residents and short-stay Medicare rehabilitation patients, with staffing depth to support higher-acuity care in a large nonprofit community near downtown Saratoga Springs.
Wesley Health Care Center Inc is legally operated by Wesley Health Care Center, Inc. (Not for Profit).
