Staffing Rating
Meadow Park Rehabilitation and Health Center earns an overall 4-star rating, which means it performs above average compared to nursing homes nationally. That overall score is a composite built from three separate ratings, and it's worth understanding where the facility shines and where there's room for improvement. The strongest piece of the picture is its 5-star Quality Measures rating, the highest possible score. This reflects real clinical outcomes across 15 different health indicators, things like how well the facility manages residents' pain, prevents infections, and maintains physical functioning. For families, this is often the most meaningful number because it speaks directly to the care residents are actually receiving day to day. The Health Inspection rating lands at 3 stars, which is average, meaning state inspectors found a typical number and severity of citations, nothing that should set off alarm bells, but also no standout record of a nearly spotless inspection history.
The one area that deserves a closer look is the 2-star Staffing rating, which is below average. This reflects how many nursing hours per resident the facility provides compared to other homes. Lower staffing levels can sometimes mean residents wait longer for help, get less individualized attention, or have fewer interactions with nurses throughout the day. It doesn't necessarily mean care is poor, especially given those excellent clinical outcomes, but it's a fair question to raise with the facility directly. Ask about typical nurse-to-resident ratios and how they handle overnight or weekend coverage. Taken all together, Meadow Park's high quality scores suggest that despite leaner staffing, the team appears to be delivering solid results for residents, which is an encouraging sign for families considering this facility.

Questions to ask when visiting
1. How many residents does each certified nursing assistant care for during the day shift, and does that number change at night or on weekends?
2. How long have most of your nursing staff been working here, and what do you do to keep turnover low?
3. Can you walk me through exactly what happens if a resident falls or has a medical emergency in the middle of the night?
4. How do you handle it when a resident or family member complains about the care they're receiving, and can you give me an example of a change you made because of a complaint?
5. What does a typical day look like for a resident who isn't enrolled in any structured therapy program?
6. Has this facility been cited for any deficiencies in the last two state inspections, and where can I read the full 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.
