When viewed against national benchmarks, Mission De La Casa presents a notably mixed profile. The 2-star overall rating places it below the national average, driven in large part by the 1-star health inspection score. Health inspection ratings reflect findings from state and federal surveys conducted at the facility, and a 1-star score indicates that the facility ranked in the lower tier of facilities nationwide during recent inspection cycles. However, the 5-star staffing and quality measure ratings represent meaningful strengths. Staffing ratings account for the hours of care provided per resident per day by registered nurses, licensed practical nurses, and certified nursing assistants, and a 5-star score in this category indicates above-average staffing levels. The 5-star quality measure rating is based on clinical data such as rates of hospitalizations, falls, pressure ulcers, and other resident health outcomes.
