About Highland Care Center

Highland Care Center in Jamaica, New York is a licensed nursing home offering short-stay skilled nursing (Medicare Part A SNF) and long-term care under Medicare and Medicaid. The facility lists 320 certified beds and an average daily census just over 300 residents. It is operated as a for-profit nursing facility rather than a hospital or continuing care retirement community.

Daily life includes nursing and therapy support at measured staffing levels: modest registered nurse and LPN hours and about two hours of nurse aide care per resident per day, plus limited physical therapy minutes. The community reports a resident council, higher-than-average flu and pneumonia vaccination rates for short-stay residents, a mixed set of CMS star ratings, and fire safety citations noted in 2018.
