This data allows consumers to compare information about nursing homes. Information here is not an endorsement or advertisement for any nursing home and should be considered carefully. Use it with other information you gather about nursing homes facilities. Talk to your doctor or other health care provider about this.



This data was updated by using data source from Centers for Medicare and Medicaid Services (CMS) which is publicized on Wednesday, October 1, 2014. If you found out that something incorrect and want to change it, please follow this Update Data guide.

The Five Star Quality Rating System is not a substitute for visiting the nursing home. This system can give you important information, help you compare nursing homes by topics you consider most important, and help you think of questions to ask when you visit the nursing home. Use the Five-Star ratings together with other sources of information.

Health Inspection Rating (1 out of 5 stars)
Quality Rating (5 out of 5 stars)
Staffing Rating (3 out of 5 stars)
RN Staffing Rating (4 out of 5 stars)
Overall Rating (2 out of 5 stars)
Nursing homes vary in the quality of care and services they provide to their residents. Reviewing health inspection results, staffing data, and quality measure data are three important ways to measure nursing home quality. This information gives you a "snap shot" of the care individual nursing home give.
