How to read these ratings

CMS rates nursing homes 1 to 5 stars in three areas and combines them into an overall rating. The health-inspection rating comes from state surveys and complaint investigations over three years; the staffing rating from payroll-reported nurse hours per resident; the quality-measure rating from clinical data the home reports itself. Experts weight the inspection and staffing ratings more than the self-reported quality measures. Read the latest inspection report on Medicare Care Compare before visiting.
