What Do Medicare Ratings Say About Rosewood?

Choosing a nursing home for a loved one is one of the most important decisions a family can make. At Rosewood Rehabilitation and Nursing Center, we understand that trust, transparency, and quality of care are at the heart of that decision.

That’s why we want to take a moment to explain what the Medicare ratings for our facility mean—and what we’re doing to improve.

Understanding the Medicare Rating System

The Centers for Medicare & Medicaid Services (CMS) uses a five-star quality rating system to help families compare nursing homes more easily. These ratings are publicly available on Medicare’s Care Compare website and are based on:

• Health inspections – results from on-site visits by state surveyors
• Staffing levels – time spent caring for each resident daily
• Quality measures – data on residents’ physical and clinical well-being
  

Each category receives a star rating, and those are averaged into an overall rating.

Rosewood’s Current Ratings

According to the latest information on Medicare.gov, Rosewood Rehabilitation and Nursing Center currently holds the following ratings:

Overall Rating: ★★☆☆☆

• Health Inspections: ★★☆☆☆‍
• Staffing: ★☆☆☆☆‍
• Quality Measures: ★★★★★
  

These ratings are an honest reflection of the challenges we’ve faced—but also serve as an important guide for where we need to grow.

Our Commitment to Progress

We want our community to know: we are listening, we care, and we are actively working on improvement.

• We are strengthening our staffing resources to provide more hands-on time with each resident.
• We are reviewing internal procedures to improve health inspection outcomes.
• We are investing in additional training and quality improvement programs to better serve our residents.
  

Change takes time, but every member of the Rosewood team is dedicated to the journey.

Why Transparency Matters

By sharing our ratings openly, we hope to build trust with the families we serve. We believe in being upfront about where we stand—because that’s how real progress begins.

If you have questions about our services or how we’re working to improve, please don’t hesitate to reach out. We’re here to talk, listen, and support you every step of the way.
