Centers for Medicare and Medicaid Services (CMS) assigns star ratings to nursing facilities across four categories, using a scale of one to five stars.

Harmony Palos accepts both Medicare and Medicaid as forms of payment, making it accessible to residents who rely on federal health insurance programs or state-administered assistance. Prospective residents and families should contact the facility directly at (708) 361-4555 to inquire about private pay options, insurance coverage details, and current bed availability.

When compared against national benchmarks, Harmony Palos presents a mixed profile. Its overall and health inspection ratings are consistent with the national average of 3.0 stars.

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.
