Idylwood Care Center holds an overall CMS star rating of 5 out of 5, placing it above the national average of 3.0 stars. CMS assigns these ratings based on three primary components: health inspections, staffing levels, and quality measures. The facility received a health inspection rating of 4 out of 5, indicating performance above the national baseline in that category. The staffing rating is 5 out of 5, reflecting staffing levels that CMS considers notably high relative to comparable facilities. The quality measure rating is 2 out of 5, which falls below the national average and relates to clinical outcome indicators such as rates of hospitalizations, falls, and other resident health metrics tracked by CMS.
Idylwood Care Center accepts both Medicare and Medicaid as forms of payment, making it accessible to a broad range of residents including those who qualify for government-funded coverage. Individuals whose coverage is not through Medicare or Medicaid may wish to confirm accepted payment methods directly with the facility by contacting the administrative office at (408) 739-2383. Private pay and supplemental insurance arrangements may also be available depending on the specific care plan and room type.
When considered in the context of national performance data, Idylwood Care Center presents a mixed profile. Its overall 5-star rating and 5-star staffing rating both exceed the national average of 3.0 stars, and its 4-star health inspection rating is also above average. However, the quality measure rating of 2 out of 5 is below the national average, indicating that certain clinical outcome metrics tracked by CMS are lower relative to other facilities nationally. Families and healthcare professionals reviewing this facility should consider all three rating components, as each reflects a distinct aspect of facility performance. CMS updates these ratings periodically based on new inspection data, staffing reports, and quality measure calculations.

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.
