CMS Star Ratings

Overall rating
★★☆☆☆
CMS’s composite of the three ratings below. Washington average: 3.2 stars.
Health inspection
★★☆☆☆
Based on the last three years of on-site inspections and complaint investigations — the rating CMS weights most heavily.
Staffing
★★★★☆
Nurse and aide hours per resident per day, adjusted for how much care residents need, plus staff turnover.
Quality measures
★★☆☆☆
Clinical outcomes CMS tracks, such as falls with injury, pressure ulcers and hospital readmissions.
Lake Ridge Center holds a 2-star overall rating, in the bottom two tiers CMS assigns. Nursing staff turnover of 55% is well above the Washington average of 45%; high turnover is one of the strongest predictors of inconsistent care. Federal regulators have fined this facility $87,201 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.
