“Nursing homes with 5 stars are considered to have much above average quality and nursing homes with 1 star are considered to have quality much below average.” (CMS) How CMS builds these ratings.
Our reading of these numbers
Written by us from the CMS figures on this page. Percentages and minutes are our arithmetic.
CMS counts an average of about 289 residents per day in 295 certified beds, so roughly 98% of beds are in use (our division of CMS's two figures). The most recent standard inspection CMS lists was on December 19, 2024, about 21 months before CMS processed this data on September 1, 2026. CMS reports 17 health citations for rating cycle 1; this is a cycle total, not necessarily the count from that inspection date. None of the 29 citations in CMS's three-year file is at severity G or above, the levels CMS's grid describes as actual harm or immediate jeopardy. Eight citations came from complaint inspections. Reported nurse staffing works out to about 212 minutes of nursing time per resident per day, about 52 of them from registered nurses (CMS's hours times 60). CMS's three-year penalties file lists no fines or payment denials.
Staffing
“This includes three nurse staffing level measures (hours per resident per day) and three measures of staff turnover.” (CMS Technical Users' Guide) “The staffing measures are derived from data submitted each quarter through the Payroll-Based Journal (PBJ) System, along with daily resident census derived from Minimum Data Set, Version 3.0 (MDS 3.0) assessments.” (CMS)
