Staffing Rating
Pleasant Manor Nursing & Rehab holds an overall 5-star rating from CMS, which is the highest possible score. That overall rating is a composite picture built from three separate categories, and understanding each one helps you see what's really driving that top mark.
The health inspection rating is also 5 stars, meaning state inspectors found very few problems - or less serious ones - during their visits compared to other facilities. That's a strong sign of a well-run operation that takes compliance and resident safety seriously on a day-to-day basis. Staffing comes in at 4 stars, which is above average, meaning nurses and aides are spending more time with residents than most facilities at this level - a practical win for families who worry about whether their loved one will get enough attention. The one area to keep an eye on is quality measures, which sits at 3 stars, or average. This category tracks 15 clinical outcomes like fall rates, pressure wounds, and mobility decline. Average isn't a red flag, but it does suggest there may be room for improvement in how residents' health holds up over time. Overall, the 5-star composite reflects that the facility's strong inspection and staffing scores more than carry the weight, but asking the admissions team directly about their quality measure trends is a smart question to bring to your tour.

Questions to ask when visiting
1. How many residents does each certified nursing assistant care for during a typical day shift, and does that number change on nights and weekends?
2. How long have your charge nurses and CNAs been working at this facility, and what does your staff turnover look like over the past year?
3. If my loved one falls or has a medical emergency overnight, walk me through exactly what happens from the moment staff are alerted to the moment family is contacted.
4. How do you handle a resident who refuses a meal, misses activities for several days in a row, or seems withdrawn - what steps does your team take?
5. Can I see the most recent state inspection report, and can you explain any deficiencies that were cited and what changed as a result?
6. If my loved one has a complaint or feels uncomfortable telling staff something is wrong, who can they go to and how is that person independent from the day-to-day management here?

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.
