Staffing Rating
Westminster St. Augustine earned a 5-star overall rating from CMS, which is the highest possible score and puts this facility well above average compared to nursing homes across the country. That top-line number is built from three separate ratings that each look at something different, and Westminster hit the mark on all three.
The health inspection rating reflects how the facility performed during state inspections, specifically looking at how many violations were found and how serious they were. A 5-star score here means inspectors found very few, if any, concerns, which is a strong sign that the facility is being run safely and is holding itself to a high standard day to day. The staffing rating tells you how many nursing hours residents are actually receiving relative to the number of people living there, and a 5-star score means residents here get considerably more hands-on care time than you would find at a typical facility. Finally, the quality measures rating looks at 15 clinical and physical health outcomes for residents, things like whether residents are experiencing falls, pressure wounds, or declines in mobility. Five stars here means the people living at Westminster are doing well on those real-world health markers. Taken together, these three ratings paint a consistent picture: this is a facility that is well-staffed, well-managed, and producing strong outcomes for its residents.

Questions to ask when visiting
1. How many residents does each certified nursing assistant care for on a typical day shift, and does that number change on evenings and weekends?
2. How long have most of your floor staff been working here, and what does your turnover look like over the past year?
3. If my loved one has a complaint or feels unsafe, who do they go to, and can you walk me through exactly what happens next?
4. What does a normal weekday actually look like for a resident who doesn't have any scheduled therapy or medical appointments?
5. How do you handle situations where a resident's condition changes overnight, and how quickly does a family member get notified?
6. Has this facility been cited for any deficiencies in the last two state inspections, and can I see those reports?

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.
