Staffing Rating
Parker Jewish Institute for Health Care & Rehab earns an overall 5-star rating from CMS, which is the highest possible score and puts it well above average compared to nursing homes across the country. That top score is built from three separate ratings that each measure something different. The health inspection rating, also 5 stars, tells you that state inspectors found very few problems here, and any issues they did find were minor. That kind of record suggests a facility that stays on top of compliance and keeps its environment safe for residents. The quality measures rating is also 5 stars, meaning the facility scores exceptionally well across 15 clinical benchmarks that track things like whether residents are developing pressure sores, experiencing falls, losing function, or needing hospital readmissions. Those numbers reflect real outcomes for real people, so this is an encouraging sign that residents are receiving strong day-to-day care. The staffing rating comes in at 4 stars, which is still above average and means nurses are spending more time with residents than most facilities provide. It falls just short of that top tier, so if your loved one has complex medical needs that require a lot of hands-on attention, it is worth asking the facility directly about staffing levels on specific shifts. Overall though, the combination of near-perfect scores across all three categories paints a genuinely strong picture, and families can take real confidence in knowing that Parker Jewish consistently outperforms the majority of nursing homes on the measures that matter most.

Questions to ask when visiting
1. How many residents does each certified nursing assistant care for during the day shift, and does that ratio change at night or on weekends? 2. How long have your nursing staff and CNAs been working here on average, and what is your turnover rate over the past year? 3. If my loved one has a fall or a medical concern overnight, who specifically makes the decision about whether to call me, and how quickly does that call happen? 4. Can you walk me through what a typical Tuesday looks like for a resident, from the time they wake up to the time they go to bed? 5. How do you handle a resident who refuses a meal, misses activities, or seems withdrawn, and who is responsible for following up on that? 6. What was your most recent state inspection score, were there any deficiencies cited, and what did you do to correct them?

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.
