Courtyard Celebrates CMS 5-Star Overall Rating
Courtyard is proud to celebrate an important achievement in long-term care: earning a 5-Star Overall Rating from the Centers for Medicare & Medicaid Services (CMS)!
The CMS Five-Star Quality Rating System was developed to help residents, families, and caregivers better understand and compare nursing home performance. Receiving a 5-Star Overall Rating is a significant accomplishment, representing performance considered much above average within the CMS rating system.
So, what goes into earning five stars?
CMS evaluates nursing homes across three primary categories:
-
Health Inspections: Evaluates the results of state health inspections, including compliance with health and safety requirements.
-
Staffing: Looks at nursing home staffing levels and other staffing-related measures.
-
Quality Measures: Reviews various measures related to resident care, health, and overall outcomes.
Together, these categories provide a comprehensive look at several important aspects of nursing home performance.
For Courtyard, this recognition is an opportunity to celebrate the dedication, teamwork, and ongoing efforts that contribute to the facility's performance. Maintaining high standards requires consistent attention to these important areas and a continued commitment to improvement.
For families exploring long-term care options, CMS ratings can serve as a helpful resource when researching and comparing facilities.
We are proud to recognize Courtyard for earning this distinguished five-star rating and congratulate everyone who contributed to this achievement!
Five stars. One outstanding accomplishment. A milestone worth celebrating!
