Understanding nursing home quality
We compare each facility only to others in Illinois. This keeps comparisons fair since different states have different regulations, costs, and challenges.
What families should look for:
- More RN hours — Registered nurses handle medications and complex medical care
- Higher quality ratings — 4-5 stars indicate better clinical outcomes
- Fewer inspection problems — Shows consistent compliance with safety standards
- Strong total staffing — More hours means more day-to-day attention for residents
Why this matters: Better staffing and quality scores are linked to safer,
more attentive care for residents—and more support and peace of mind for families.
