Hours per resident per day — compared to New Jersey state averages

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. 17m per day ▼ 59% State avg: 41m 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. 51m per day ▼ 9% State avg: 56m 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 51m per day ▼ 17% State avg: 2h 14m per day · National avg: 2h 20m per day
Total Nursing (Weekend) Info Combined nursing hours (RN + LPN + Nurse Aide) per resident per day on weekends.

RN (Weekend) Info Registered nurse hours specifically on weekends.

The most recent inspection on November 20, 2025, did not identify any deficiencies. Earlier inspections showed a pattern of deficiencies related mainly to resident care, staffing ratios, infection control, and safety measures. Complaint investigations substantiated issues with abuse prevention, staffing shortages, and failure to notify residents’ representatives, with one immediate jeopardy finding related to COVID-19 infection control in early 2021 that was promptly addressed. No fines, license suspensions, or enforcement actions were listed in the available reports. The facility’s record suggests some improvement over time, with the latest inspection showing no deficiencies after several prior citations.
