Medicare five-star ratings

  • Overall ★★★★★ 1/5
  • Health inspections ★★★★★ 2/5
  • Staffing Not reported
  • Quality measures ★★★★★ 1/5

This community did not file the payroll return CMS uses to work out nursing hours. CMS scores a missing return as one star, which looks the same on this page as a home that reported and staffs thinly, so we leave the staffing score out rather than show you a number that says nothing about its nurses. The missing return does still count against the overall score above. It is a fair thing to ask about on a tour: how many staff are on at night, and at weekends.
