Sun Terrace Health Care Center

Sun Terrace Health Care Center holds a 4-star overall rating from CMS, which puts it above average compared to nursing homes across the country. That overall score is a composite of three separate ratings, and understanding each one helps you get a clearer picture of what life there might actually look like for your loved one. The health inspection rating is also 4 stars, meaning state inspectors found fewer or less serious problems than most facilities when they made their visits. That's a good sign for safety and compliance with care standards. The staffing and quality measures ratings both come in at 3 stars, which is right in the middle of the pack. On staffing, that means the number of nursing hours per resident is around average, so your loved one will have access to care, but staff may not have as much one-on-one time as they would at a higher-rated facility. The quality measures score reflects how residents are doing on things like managing pain, avoiding falls, or preventing pressure sores, and average here means outcomes are neither notably strong nor a red flag. Taken together, Sun Terrace's above-average inspection record lifts the overall rating even as staffing and clinical outcomes sit at a more typical level. It's a solid choice worth considering, though families may want to ask specifically about staffing levels during their visit.
