When compared to the national landscape of nursing facilities, Providence Healthcare presents a mixed profile. Its overall 3-star rating places it at the national midpoint. The quality measure rating of 5 stars is notably above average and reflects strong performance on clinical outcomes tracked by CMS, such as rates of hospitalizations, falls, and other health indicators. However, the staffing rating of 1 star is considerably below the national average, which may be a relevant factor for those evaluating care capacity and staffing consistency. The health inspection rating of 3 stars falls in line with national norms.
