Staffing Rating
Cross City Nursing And Rehabilitation Center holds an overall 5-star rating from CMS, which reflects strong performance across three separate areas that are each scored independently. The overall rating is a composite of those three scores, and when the pieces come together this well, it's a meaningful signal that the facility is consistently delivering above-average care. The health inspection rating comes in at 4 stars, meaning state inspectors found fewer or less serious citations than most facilities, which is a good sign that the building is being managed responsibly and residents are living in a safe environment. The staffing rating is also 4 stars, meaning nurses and aides are spending more time with residents than at the average facility, which matters enormously for day-to-day quality of life and how quickly staff can respond to a resident's needs.
The quality measures rating is a perfect 5 stars, which is the most direct window into how residents are actually doing health-wise. This score is based on 15 clinical and physical outcomes, things like fall rates, pressure ulcers, pain management, and how well residents maintain their ability to move and function. A 5-star score here means residents at this facility are experiencing significantly better health outcomes than at most nursing homes across the country. For families weighing their options, that combination of solid inspection and staffing scores paired with exceptional clinical outcomes is genuinely reassuring.

Questions to ask when visiting
1. How many residents does each certified nursing assistant care for during the day shift and the night shift, and has that number changed in the past year?
2. How often do residents see the same aides and nurses from week to week, or does the facility rely heavily on agency staff to fill shifts?
3. Can you walk me through exactly what happens when a resident has a fall, including how quickly a doctor is notified and how the family gets contacted?
4. What does a typical weekday look like for a resident who needs help with meals, bathing, and getting around, from the time they wake up to the time they go to bed?
5. How many state inspection citations has this facility received in the past two years, and what specific steps were taken to fix the problems that were cited?
6. If my loved one has a complaint or feels uncomfortable about something, who do they talk to, and how do you make sure there are no consequences for speaking up?

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.
