What to look for

Which numbers matter most when choosing — in plain language

  • Staffing is the single best predictor of care quality — look at the RN and total nurse hours per resident per day, and the staffing star rating.
  • Health-inspection results and any substantiated complaints reveal day-to-day problems an overall rating can hide.
  • Fines and penalties show whether the facility has a recent record of serious violations.
  • An abuse-citation icon is a serious flag — always read the recent inspection reports before deciding.
