CareQED Analysis

Encore at West Meadow is a 110-bed nursing home in Newark, Delaware. It holds a 4-star CMS overall rating. Total nurse staffing is 5.1 hours per resident day, above the Delaware average of 4.6. Its most recent inspection, in October 2025, cited 3 deficiencies, one of them severe.

The facility’s nurse staffing stands out as a relative strength, which can support more attentive day-to-day care. However, a recent inspection produced a serious citation related to resident assessments and abuse-prevention/reporting, so you’ll want to ask how those specific problems were corrected and what ongoing monitoring is in place.
