Use the rating breakdown and inspection cycles above to look past the single headline star, the Overall rating is a weighted composite, and facilities with identical headline stars can have very different underlying Health Inspection or Quality Measures profiles. Important: PlainDoctor presents CMS Five-Star Quality Rating data exactly as published at data.cms.gov (file processed Jul 1, 2026) and does not calculate custom scores or rankings. This page is a directory of publicly available government data, not medical advice, a placement recommendation, or a substitute for visiting the facility in person. Before selecting a nursing home for yourself or a family member, read the full CMS survey reports, tour the property, interview staff, and consult licensed clinicians and elder-care advisors about medical and financial implications.
