Staffing Rating
Finnish-American Village holds an overall 5-star rating from CMS, which reflects how the facility performs across three separate areas that are then combined into one composite score. The health inspection rating comes in at 4 stars, meaning state inspectors found fewer and less serious issues here than at most nursing homes in Florida. That is a strong result, even if it is not a perfect five. The staffing rating is a full 5 stars, which tells you that nurses are spending significantly more time with residents compared to what you would typically see elsewhere. More staff time generally means faster responses, closer attention to changes in condition, and less chance of problems going unnoticed. The quality measures rating is also 5 stars, based on 15 clinical indicators that track things like falls, pressure wounds, and how well residents are maintaining their physical functioning. Scoring at the top here suggests residents are experiencing genuinely good health outcomes on a day-to-day basis.
When you put all three pieces together, Finnish-American Village earns an overall 5-star rating, which places it much above average compared to nursing homes nationally. For a family making this decision, that combination is reassuring. Strong staffing and top-tier health outcomes are often the most meaningful factors in quality of life for residents, and the inspection record backs up the picture that this is a well-run facility.

Questions to ask when visiting
1. How many residents does each certified nursing assistant care for during the day shift, and does that number change at night or on weekends?
2. How long have your nurses and CNAs been working here on average, and what is your staff turnover rate over the past year?
3. If my loved one falls or has a medical emergency during the night, who responds, how quickly, and will someone call me right away?
4. Can you walk me through exactly what a typical day looks like for a resident who needs help with bathing, meals, and getting around?
5. How do you handle complaints from residents or family members, and can you give me an example of a problem that came up recently and how it was resolved?
6. What does your most recent state inspection report show, and where can I read the full findings for myself?

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.
