Star ratings are one piece of information. Visit, ask questions and talk with your doctor about what matters for your care.

Overall rating: Overall rating: 5 of 5 stars; Medicare’s summary of the three ratings below, from 1 star (much below average) to 5 stars (much above average).
Health inspections: Health inspections: 4 of 5 stars; Based on state health inspections and complaint investigations of about the last three years, compared with other nursing homes in the same state.
Staffing: Staffing: 5 of 5 stars; Based on how many hours nurses and aides spend with each resident per day (from payroll records) and how often staff leave.
Quality of resident care: Quality of resident care: 2 of 5 stars; Based on how residents do on measures such as falls with injury, pressure sores, getting better at moving around and going back to the hospital.
Short-stay residents (rehab): Short-stay residents (rehab): 2 of 5 stars; Quality rating for people who stay a short time, usually to recover after a hospital stay.
Long-stay residents: Not rated; Quality rating for people who live in the nursing home. Medicare (CMS) does not show this rating for this provider. This happens, for example, when a provider is new or has too few patients or survey answers.

A general checklist for any nursing home, not advice about this one. Medicare also publishes guides on medicare.gov.

Is the home certified by Medicare and/or Medicaid, and does it have a bed for the care you need (short-term rehab or long-term care)?
Can you see the latest state inspection report? Ask how any problems found were fixed.
How many nurses and aides work on each shift, at night and on weekends? Is there a registered nurse on site at all times?
Which doctors see residents, and how often? What happens in a medical emergency, and which hospital is used?
What therapy (physical, occupational, speech) is offered, and how many days a week?
Are residents clean, dressed and taking part in activities? Do staff speak to them kindly and answer call lights quickly?
What do the daily rate and extra services cost, and what do Medicare, Medicaid or your insurance pay? Ask for it in writing.
Is there a resident council and a family council? How are complaints handled? Ask for the long-term care ombudsman’s contact.
Are meals appetizing, and can the home meet special diets, language needs and religious or cultural preferences?
Visit more than once, including at a mealtime or in the evening, without an appointment.
