Staffing Rating
Aspire Physical Recovery Center of West Alabama holds a solid 4-star overall rating from CMS, which puts it above average compared to nursing homes across the country. That overall number is built from three separate ratings that each tell you something different about the facility. The health inspection rating comes in at 4 stars, meaning state inspectors found fewer or less serious problems here than at most facilities, which is a good sign that the home is being run carefully and kept in order. The staffing rating is also 4 stars, reflecting that nurses are spending more time with residents than the typical facility, so your loved one is less likely to be waiting long for help or attention. The one area that sits closer to the middle is quality measures, which earned 3 stars. This rating is based on 15 clinical and physical health outcomes, things like whether residents are experiencing falls, pressure wounds, or declines in mobility. A 3-star score here means the facility is performing around the national average on those outcomes, which is not a red flag, but it does suggest there may be room for improvement in some of those health result areas. Overall, the picture at Aspire is largely positive. Two of the three components score above average, and the combined 4-star rating reflects a facility that appears to be doing more right than most.

Questions to ask when visiting
1. How many residents does each certified nursing assistant care for during the day shift, and does that number change at night or on weekends? 2. How long have your nursing staff been working here, and what is your turnover rate over the past year? 3. If my loved one has a fall or a medical concern overnight, who responds and how quickly, and can you walk me through exactly what happens step by step? 4. How do you handle a resident who refuses a meal, misses medications, or shows signs of declining mental health, and who makes the call on next steps? 5. Can I see the most recent state inspection report, and can you explain any deficiencies listed and what changed because of them? 6. What does a typical Tuesday look like for a resident who does not join group activities, and how does staff make sure that person still has meaningful interaction during the day?

About CMS Star Ratings

CMS assigns 1–5 star ratings to Medicare and Medicaid-certified nursing homes based on three domains: health inspections, staffing levels, and quality measures. The overall rating is a weighted composite.

A 5-star overall rating does not guarantee excellence in every domain — inspect each sub-rating independently. Data is updated quarterly.
