When compared to national averages, The Chateau at Brooklyn Rehab and Nursing Center presents a mixed profile across its CMS rating domains. The overall 5-star rating and the 5-star quality measure rating both reflect performance above the national norm. The 4-star health inspection rating is also above the national average. However, the 2-star staffing rating is a notable area where the facility falls below the national average, which is a factor that prospective residents and their families may wish to consider when evaluating options. CMS staffing ratings are based on reported nurse staffing hours per resident per day, including registered nurses, licensed practical nurses, and certified nursing aides. The combination of high quality measures alongside lower staffing scores is a pattern that appears at some facilities and may warrant direct inquiry to the facility regarding staffing models and care delivery practices.
