About Us

Handling more than 5.4 billion searches per day, Google is the most used search engine on the World Wide Web. To help their algorithms sort through billions of web pages and provide the most relevant results to their users, Google provides consumers with an opportunity to leave a business review, which includes a rating from one star (poor) to five stars (excellent). Google then averages the ratings to determine an overall star rating.

Our Center has earned the Joint Commission’s Gold Seal of Approval for Nursing Care Center Accreditation by demonstrating compliance with its performance standards. The Gold Seal of Approval is a symbol of quality that reflects an organizations commitment to providing safe, effective patient and resident care. Our Center underwent a rigorous on-site survey. During the review, Joint Commission expert surveyors evaluated compliance with nursing care center standards related to several areas, including assistance with activities of daily living, coordination of care, staff education and training. Surveyors also conducted on-site observation interviews with leaders and staff of the organization.

Our Center has received a Five Star Quality Measures rating from the Centers for Medicare and Medicaid (CMS). The Five-Star Quality Rating System is a tool to help consumers select and compare skilled nursing care centers.  Created by the Centers for Medicare & Medicaid Services in 2008, the rating system uses information from Health Care Surveys (both standard and complaint), Quality Measures, and Staffing. The Nursing Home Compare website features the rating system.

Which nursing homes were eligible for rating?

All Medicare- and Medicaid-certified nursing homes that were part of the July 2025 CMS nursing home provider census made available in July 2025 were evaluated by U.S. News. Nursing homes did not apply nor did they provide any data or materials to U.S. News.

To be eligible for a Short-Term Rehabilitation, Long-Term Care or Overall rating, a home must have met both of the following inclusion criteria:

• Received reimbursement from CMS in July of 2025.
• Had sufficient data to evaluate quality in that rating.

What makes a nursing home a U.S. News Best Nursing Home?

To be recognized as one of the 2025 U.S. News Best Nursing Homes, a home must have been “High Performing” in short-term rehabilitation, long-term care or both. Out of the 15,007 nursing homes evaluated by U.S. News, 2,804 (19%) met those criteria. Of those:

• 1,918 homes were High Performing in short-term rehabilitation.
• 1,353 homes were High Performing in long-term care.
