Staffing Rating
Manor At Carpenters earns an overall 4-star rating from CMS, which means it performs above average compared to nursing homes across the country. That overall score is a composite of three separate ratings, each looking at a different piece of what daily life and care actually look like inside the facility. The 4-star Health Inspection rating tells you that state inspectors have found relatively few problems here, and any citations that were issued tend to be on the less serious end of the scale. The 4-star Staffing rating means residents are getting more nurse time and attention than you'd find at a typical facility, which can make a real difference in how quickly needs get met day to day. The 4-star Quality Measures rating reflects how residents are actually doing physically and clinically, covering things like fall rates, pressure wounds, and pain management, and above-average scores here suggest the care is translating into genuinely better health outcomes for the people living there. Seeing all three components aligned at 4 stars is a good sign that the facility is performing consistently well across the board, not just strong in one area while falling short in another.

Questions to ask when visiting
1. How many residents does each certified nursing aide typically care for during a day shift, and how does that number change at night and on weekends? 2. How often do residents get assigned the same aides and nurses week to week, and what is your current staff turnover rate? 3. Can you walk me through exactly what happens when a resident falls, including who gets notified, how quickly, and how the incident is documented and followed up on? 4. If my loved one needs help getting to the bathroom, how long should they expect to wait after pressing the call button, and how do you track that response time? 5. What does a typical Tuesday look like for a resident who is mobile and social, from the time they wake up to the time they go to bed? 6. Has this facility been cited for any deficiencies in the last two state inspections, and can you show me the most recent survey report right now?

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.
