University Crossing

University Crossing holds an overall 4-star rating from CMS, which means it performs above average compared to nursing homes across the country. That overall score is built from three separate ratings that each look at something different, and at University Crossing, all three land in the same solid place. The Health Inspection rating of 4 stars reflects that state inspectors found relatively few problems during their visits, and any issues they did note were on the less serious end. The Staffing rating of 4 stars tells you that nurses and aides are spending more time with residents than you would typically see at other facilities - more hands on deck generally means more attentive day-to-day care. The Quality Measures rating of 4 stars is based on 15 clinical and physical health outcomes for residents, things like whether people are maintaining mobility, managing pain, or avoiding preventable infections. Scoring above average there suggests residents at University Crossing tend to fare well on the health outcomes that matter most. Taken together, this is a facility that a family can feel reasonably confident about, though as with any community, an in-person visit is always worth the trip.
