CLEBURNE COUNTY NURSING HOME

Cleburne County Nursing Home holds an impressive 5-star overall rating from CMS, which is the highest possible score. That top-level rating is a composite that pulls together three separate scores, and the health inspection piece carries the most weight in the formula. On that front, the facility earned a perfect 5 stars, meaning state inspectors found very few, if any, serious problems during their visits. That is a strong signal that the home is being run safely and that regulators are not flagging major concerns about care practices or resident safety. The staffing rating comes in at 4 stars, which means nurses and aides are spending more time with residents than most facilities in the country. More staff time generally translates to quicker responses to call lights, more attentive personal care, and less of the rushed feeling that families sometimes notice in understaffed homes. The quality measures rating is 3 stars, landing right at the national average. This score reflects clinical outcomes like how often residents experience falls, pressure sores, or declines in mobility. An average score here is not a red flag, but it is worth asking the facility what they are actively working to improve in those areas. Taken together, this is a facility with an excellent track record with inspectors and solid staffing, performing in line with peers on health outcomes.
