Reading these results

CMS's overall star rating combines health inspections, staffing and quality measures. Inspection citations are sorted by severity, from “potential for minimal harm” up to “immediate jeopardy”, the most serious. Inspections happen roughly once a year, plus extra visits when someone files a complaint, so a facility's citations reflect what inspectors saw on those days.

Source: the Centers for Medicare & Medicaid Services (CMS) nursing home data published on data.cms.gov and Medicare's Care Compare, updated on Lawbamba November 12, 2026. Citations come from state health inspections, standard and complaint-driven, over each facility's last three inspection cycles. A citation describes what inspectors found on the inspection date; facilities can dispute citations, and most are corrected afterwards. Star ratings, fines and the abuse icon are CMS's own.
