MEDICARE AWARDS 30 NAHCI AFFILIATED FACILITIES WITH THEIR HIGHEST 5-STAR RATING

As of January 2012, Medicare currently ranks 30 NAHC client facilities with their highest honor – a 5-star rating. Less than 5% of all skilled nursing facilities in the United States will achieve this level of success. Medicare carefully studies each facility through an annual federal survey, review of quality measures, and assessment of staffing levels. Results of these studies for the past three years are included in every facility’s current assessment. This means that a 5-star rating can only be awarded through a long-term commitment to excellence.

Another four NAHCI affiliated facilities have a 4-star ratings. In all, 97% of all NAHC client facilities have either a 4 or 5-star rating. The only facility that is not a 4 or 5 star rated facility was recently acquired and is progressing towards receiving a higher rating.

U.S. News and World Report Magazine which hit newsstands in February 2010 with the cover “How to Live to 100” brought to light “America’s Best Nursing Homes.” After a careful study of the government’s rating of nursing homes, U.S. News and World Report published their findings in the magazine copy and on their website (see http://health.usnews.com/health/best-nursing-homes). The listing is based upon the facility’s Medicare rating on survey, staffing and quality measures. 9 North American Health Care client facilities were listed in the original issue.

Currently (as of March 2011), U.S. News and World Report lists 25 North American Health Care client facilities as “America’s Best Nursing Homes.”
