CMS Overall Rating

CMS 5-Star Ratings

Health Inspection
Based on the three most recent standard surveys, with more weight on recent results.
1/5
Staffing
Weighted combination of RN and total nurse staffing hours per resident per day, case-mix adjusted.

Quality Measures
15 resident-level quality measures split between long-stay and short-stay (post-acute) residents.

Staffing & Workforce

Direct-care staffing is the strongest operational driver of quality in nursing homes. Values are hours per resident per day, derived from payroll-based journal (PBJ) submissions. "Case-mix" adjusts for resident acuity; "Adjusted" is the CMS rating-input value.

Total nurse
All nursing staff combined: RN + LPN + Aide
2.81 3.87 2.81 ≥ 3.48 Below floor
Registered Nurse (RN)
Licensed RN hours. Strongest driver of clinical outcomes.

Licensed Practical Nurse (LPN)
LPN/LVN hours. Often handles medication administration.

Health Inspections

CMS weights three inspection cycles to compute the Health Inspection rating: the most recent (50%), the second most recent (33%), and the oldest (17%). Each standard-survey deficiency is assigned a score based on scope and severity; complaint-survey findings and revisit scores are added to produce the cycle total.

Cycle Date Total defs. Standard Complaint Deficiency score Revisits Total score
Cycle 1 (most recent) 2025-03-07 29 26 13 239 2 359
Cycle 2/3 (prior) 2024-01-30 9 8 2 52 1 52

Deficiencies (56)

Individual survey findings. Scope/severity uses the CMS A–L matrix: letters further down the alphabet indicate greater harm and wider scope, up through J–L (immediate jeopardy).
