HERITAGE MANOR

Heritage Manor is a for-profit skilled nursing facility located at 610 North Garfield Avenue in Monterey Park, California, within Los Angeles County. Operating as a Limited Liability Company, the facility holds 99 certified beds and is certified to accept both Medicare and Medicaid residents. The Centers for Medicare and Medicaid Services (CMS) assigns star ratings to nursing facilities on a scale of 1 to 5, with 5 representing the highest performance. Heritage Manor holds an overall CMS rating of 2 stars, which falls below the national average of 3 stars. The health inspection rating stands at 1 star, the lowest possible score, indicating a notable number of health deficiencies identified during state inspections. The staffing rating is 2 stars, suggesting staffing levels that are below the national norm when accounting for both registered nurse hours and total staffing relative to resident census. The quality measure rating, which reflects clinical outcomes across various care indicators, is 5 stars, the highest rating available in that category. This combination of ratings reflects notable variation across the three measured domains. Heritage Manor is certified for both Medicare and Medicaid, meaning the facility is authorized to receive payment through the federal Medicare program for qualifying short-term skilled nursing care, as well as through the Medi-Cal program in California for eligible long-term care residents. Individuals without public insurance coverage may also be admitted as private-pay residents, though coverage terms and availability should be confirmed directly with the facility's admissions staff. When compared to national benchmarks, Heritage Manor presents a mixed profile. Its overall 2-star rating places it below the national average of 3 stars. The 1-star health inspection rating is the lowest tier and indicates a higher frequency or severity of deficiencies found during official inspections relative to other facilities. The 2-star staffing rating also falls below the national norm, which can be relevant to families evaluating resident-to-staff ratios and care continuity. In contrast, the facility's 5-star quality measure rating represents the highest performance tier nationally, reflecting strong outcomes across the clinical metrics tracked by CMS, including areas such as resident mobility, medication management, and certain hospitalization measures. Prospective residents and their families are encouraged to review the full CMS Nursing Home Care Compare report and to visit the facility directly when evaluating care options.
