The facility operates with 76 certified beds and is classified under for-profit corporate ownership. It is certified to accept both Medicare and Medicaid residents. The facility holds an overall CMS star rating of 4 out of 5, which is above the national average of 3.0 stars. CMS ratings are derived from three component categories: health inspections, staffing levels, and quality measures. Berthoud Care and Rehabilitation received a 5-star rating in health inspections, the highest possible rating in that category, indicating a strong performance record during state and federal inspection surveys. The quality measure rating stands at 4 stars, also above the national average, reflecting clinical outcome data reported for the resident population. The staffing rating is 1 star, the lowest possible, indicating that staffing levels at this facility fall below national averages when adjusted for resident acuity. This component rating contrasts notably with the facility's performance in the other two categories. Berthoud Care and Rehabilitation is certified to accept payment through both Medicare and Medicaid programs. Individuals seeking care at this facility may also inquire directly about private pay arrangements and other insurance options. Medicare covers short-term skilled nursing and rehabilitation services under qualifying conditions, while Medicaid may cover longer-term residential care for those who meet eligibility requirements. Prospective residents and their families are encouraged to verify current coverage details with the facility and their respective insurance providers. In comparison to national benchmarks, Berthoud Care and Rehabilitation presents a mixed performance profile. Its overall 4-star rating places it above the national average of 3.0 stars, and its individual scores in health inspections and quality measures further support an above-average standing in those domains. However, the 1-star staffing rating indicates a significant gap relative to national norms, which may be a relevant consideration for those evaluating the facility. The facility is currently active and operating in Berthoud, Colorado, serving residents in Larimer County and the surrounding region.
