Silvercrest holds a 2-star overall rating, in the bottom two tiers CMS assigns. Federal regulators have fined this facility $24,850 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.
