The facility holds an overall CMS star rating of 2 out of 5, which falls below the national average of 3.0 stars. CMS star ratings are derived from three component categories: health inspections, staffing levels, and quality measures. Madera Rehabilitation & Nursing Center received a health inspection rating of 1 out of 5, indicating inspection findings that rank among the lower tier nationally. The staffing rating is 3 out of 5, which aligns with the national average and reflects the ratio of nursing staff relative to resident census. The quality measure rating is 5 out of 5, the highest possible score in that category, reflecting clinical outcome data reported to CMS across a range of resident health indicators. As a Medicare and Medicaid certified facility, Madera Rehabilitation & Nursing Center accepts both federal insurance programs. Medicare typically covers short-term skilled nursing care following a qualifying hospital stay, subject to specific eligibility requirements and time limits. Medicaid coverage is available for eligible low-income residents requiring long-term care and is administered through the California Department of Health Care Services. Prospective residents or their representatives are advised to confirm current payment options and availability directly with the facility's admissions staff. When assessed against national benchmarks, Madera Rehabilitation & Nursing Center presents a mixed performance profile. Its overall 2-star rating is below the national average of 3.0 stars, driven in part by a 1-star health inspection rating. However, the 5-star quality measure rating is a notable distinction, placing the facility at the top tier nationally in that specific category. The staffing rating of 3 stars is consistent with national norms. These ratings are updated periodically by CMS through the Nursing Home Care Compare program and represent a snapshot of reported data over defined measurement periods.
