St. Louis nursing home questions, answered

Which nursing homes in St. Louis have the highest CMS ratings?

The ranked list on this page is built directly from the Centers for Medicare & Medicaid Services overall star rating for every certified nursing home we track in the St. Louis, Missouri area, currently 25 facilities. Facilities are ordered by overall star rating first, then by the number of rating components CMS has published. No facility can pay to appear higher.

What does a CMS 5-star rating actually mean in St. Louis?

CMS scores every Medicare-certified nursing home from 1 to 5 stars on three components — health inspections, staffing hours per resident per day, and quality measures — then combines them into an overall rating. Five stars means "much above average" relative to other facilities nationally and within Missouri. It is a relative ranking, not a safety guarantee, so read the inspection history on each facility page before deciding.

What is the average nursing home rating in St. Louis?

Across the CMS-rated nursing homes we track in St. Louis, the average overall star rating is 2.24/5. Anything at 4 or 5 stars is above the local average; 1 and 2 star facilities are worth reviewing inspection-by-inspection before touring.

Are these St. Louis rankings paid placements?

No. Clear Care Connect ranks purely on published government data. We do not accept payment for position, and every facility name, address and phone number on this site is free to view. Only the deep report — full inspection history, deficiency citations, penalties, fire safety records, staffing detail and amenities — costs $9.99.
