The quality measure rating of 4 stars also exceeds the national average, suggesting favorable performance on tracked clinical indicators. The health inspection rating of 2 stars, however, is below the national average, which may warrant further review by those researching the facility.

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.
