Staffing Rating
Atlantic Shores Nursing And Rehab Center 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 a different piece of the picture, so it helps to understand what each one is actually measuring.
The Health Inspection rating of 4 stars is a strong sign. State inspectors visit facilities and document any problems they find, and fewer or less serious citations push that score higher. A 4 here tells you regulators have generally found this facility to be well-run and safe. The Quality Measures rating also comes in at 4 stars, which reflects how residents are actually doing physically and clinically across 15 tracked health outcomes, things like whether residents are experiencing falls, pressure wounds, or declines in daily functioning. Scoring above average there is meaningful because it speaks directly to the care residents receive day to day. The one area to note is Staffing, which sits at 3 stars, or average. This rating is based on how many hours of nursing care residents receive relative to the number of people living there. It does not mean care is poor, but it is worth asking the facility about their staffing levels and how they handle busy periods or staff turnover. Overall, the 4-star composite suggests this is a solid choice, with the staffing picture being the one thing families may want to explore a bit further in conversation with the facility.

Questions to ask when visiting
1. How many residents does each certified nursing assistant care for during a typical day shift, and does that number change at night or on weekends?
2. How long have most of your nursing staff been working here, and what do you do when a scheduled nurse or aide calls out sick?
3. Can you walk me through exactly what happens if a resident falls or has a medical emergency in the middle of the night?
4. How do you handle a situation where a resident with dementia becomes agitated or upset, and who on staff is trained to respond?
5. If my loved one has a complaint or feels unsafe, who do they tell, and how do you make sure that concern actually gets addressed?
6. What does a typical Tuesday look like for a resident here, from the time they wake up to the time they go to sleep?

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.
