Staffing Rating
Sun City Post Acute earned an overall 4-star rating from CMS, which means it performs above average compared to nursing homes nationwide. That overall score is a composite that weighs three separate ratings, each measuring something different about how a facility operates. The health inspection rating sits at 3 stars, meaning the facility is about average when it comes to the number and seriousness of issues state inspectors have flagged during their visits. Nothing alarming, but not a standout record either. The staffing rating is 2 stars, which is the area families should pay closest attention to. It means the facility has below-average nurse hours relative to the number of residents, so your loved one may have less one-on-one time with nursing staff than they would at a comparable facility. On the brighter side, the quality measures rating is a perfect 5 stars, reflecting that resident health outcomes across 15 clinical indicators, things like wound care, fall rates, and pain management, are much better than average.
What this picture tells you practically is that Sun City Post Acute delivers strong clinical results for residents, even while running with leaner staffing than many peers. That combination can work well when a facility is organized and efficient, but it is worth asking during a tour how they manage care during busy shifts and overnight hours. The high quality outcomes are genuinely encouraging, but the staffing number is a real data point worth exploring further before making a final decision.

Questions to ask when visiting
1. How many residents does each certified nursing assistant care for during a typical day shift and a typical night shift?
2. How long have most of your nursing staff been working at this specific facility, and what is your average staff turnover rate over the past year?
3. If my loved one has a concern or feels unsafe, what is the exact process for reporting it, and who follows up with the family afterward?
4. Can you walk me through what a typical weekday looks like for a resident who needs memory care or has limited mobility, from morning until bedtime?
5. How does the facility handle falls, and can you tell me how many falls resulted in injuries here in the last six months?
6. If my loved one's condition changes or gets worse, how quickly does a doctor or nurse practitioner actually come to assess them in person rather than by phone?

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.
