CMS Star Ratings

Overall rating

Health inspection
★★☆☆☆
Based on the last three years of on-site inspections and complaint investigations — the rating CMS weights most heavily.

★★☆☆☆
Clinical outcomes CMS tracks, such as falls with injury, pressure ulcers and hospital readmissions.
Nazareth Living Center holds a 1-star overall rating, in the bottom two tiers CMS assigns. Nursing staff turnover of 77% is well above the Missouri average of 56%; high turnover is one of the strongest predictors of inconsistent care. Federal regulators have fined this facility $11,928 in the last three years. None of this tells you whether a bed is open, whether your insurance is in network, or whether the facility will accept a given level of care — confirm those three directly with the facility before you commit.
