Schenectady Center for Rehabilitation and Nursing is a 240-bed nursing home in Schenectady, New York. It holds a 2-star CMS overall rating. Total nurse staffing is 4 hours per resident day, above the New York average of 3.7. Its most recent inspection, in August 2025, cited 15 deficiencies, none of them severe.
The facility’s nurse staffing level appears stronger than many in the state, which can help with daily care needs. However, the recent inspection found multiple care-planning, resident-rights and care-delivery problems and even cited shortfalls in having a licensed nurse on each shift, so it would be reasonable to ask how staffing is scheduled and what specific steps were taken to fix those deficiencies.
