Staffing Rating
Yuma Nursing Center holds an overall 4-star rating, which means it performs above average compared to nursing homes nationwide. That composite score is shaped by three separate ratings, and it's worth knowing how each one contributes. The health inspection rating is also 4 stars, which is a good sign - it means state inspectors found fewer or less serious problems here than at most facilities. That covers things like safety, care practices, and how well the home follows regulations during on-site visits. Staffing comes in at 3 stars, which is average, meaning the number of nursing hours residents receive relative to the total resident count is in the middle of the pack - not a red flag, but families may want to ask how staffing levels hold up on nights and weekends.
The one area that stands out is the Quality Measures rating of 2 stars, which is below average. This score is based on 15 clinical indicators - things like rates of falls, pressure ulcers, hospitalizations, and how well residents maintain their mobility and daily functioning. A lower score here doesn't necessarily mean care is poor across the board, but it does suggest the facility may have room to improve on some measurable health outcomes for residents. If you're considering Yuma Nursing Center for a loved one, it's worth asking staff directly about the specific measures that factor into this score, particularly any that are most relevant to your family member's health needs.

Questions to ask when visiting
1. How many residents does each certified nursing assistant typically care for during the day shift, and how does that change at night and on weekends?
2. How often do residents see the same caregivers each week, and what is your current staff turnover rate?
3. Can you walk me through exactly what happens if a resident falls or has a medical emergency in the middle of the night?
4. How do you handle a resident who refuses a meal, misses activities for several days in a row, or seems withdrawn, and who is responsible for following up?
5. What does a typical weekday look like for a resident who does not participate in group activities, and how do staff make sure that person still has meaningful interaction during the day?
6. If my family member or I have a concern about their care, who do we contact, how quickly can we expect a response, and what happens if we feel the issue was not resolved?

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.
