Community Care Center is an active Medicare and Medicaid-certified provider serving the greater Duarte area. The facility has received an overall CMS star rating of 3 out of 5, which aligns with the national average of 3.0 stars. CMS assigns these ratings based on three component categories: health inspections, staffing, and quality measures. Community Care Center received a 2-star rating in health inspections, which falls below the national average. In the staffing category, the facility received a 4-star rating, indicating staffing levels above the national average. The quality measure rating of 5 stars reflects performance on clinical indicators that are above the national average. These ratings are derived from data reported to the Centers for Medicare and Medicaid Services and are updated periodically. Community Care Center accepts Medicaid as a payment source, as reflected in its facility type designation. Residents and families seeking information about payment eligibility should contact the facility directly at (626) 357-3207 or consult with a benefits counselor to determine coverage under Medicare, Medicaid, or private insurance plans. The facility's certification status allows it to receive reimbursement through federal and state programs for qualifying residents. When compared to national benchmarks, Community Care Center presents a mixed performance profile. Its overall 3-star rating is on par with the national average, though the component ratings vary considerably. The 2-star health inspection score indicates that the facility had more findings or deficiencies noted during state survey inspections than what is typical nationally. Conversely, the staffing rating of 4 stars suggests the facility maintains nurse and aide staffing levels that exceed national norms, which can be a relevant factor when assessing day-to-day resident care. The 5-star quality measure rating is the highest available and reflects strong performance across clinical outcome indicators tracked by CMS, such as rates of hospitalizations, falls, and pressure ulcers. Prospective residents, family members, and healthcare professionals are encouraged to review each rating category independently, as the components may reflect different aspects of the care environment.
