The CMS collects data to evaluate how well each nursing home handles staffing, patient outcomes, facility complaints, and rehabilitation therapy for short-term care. The CMS rates long-term care by staffing, adherence to best practices in preventive care and resident safety, and minimizing the need for and use of anti-anxiety or hypnotic medications.
The U.S News Best Nursing Homes July 2020 report stated that only 21% of 15,404 nursing homes evaluated received a rating of High-Performing in Short-Term Rehabilitation, Long-Term Care, or both. There were 2,362 rated as “Best Nursing Homes: Short-Term Rehabilitation and 1,623 as “Best Nursing Homes: Long-Term Care.” There were only 708 rated as both.
