How to read APERION CARE TOLLESTON PARK's star rating
The CMS overall star rating for APERION CARE TOLLESTON PARK is a composite of three separately measured domains: health inspection results from state survey teams, staffing levels reported through payroll-based journal data, and clinical quality measures drawn from resident assessments and Medicare claims. A 1-star overall rating means APERION CARE TOLLESTON PARK scores below most rated providers nationally. A low overall rating is most often driven by health inspection findings, which carry the heaviest weight in the CMS formula.
For APERION CARE TOLLESTON PARK, CMS currently publishes 1 out of 5 for health inspections, 1 out of 5 for staffing, 2 out of 5 for quality measures. Health inspection scores are graded on a curve within each state, so this facility's inspection score is a ranking against other Indiana providers rather than an absolute measure. Staffing scores reflect reported nurse hours per resident day, and quality-measure scores reflect resident outcomes such as falls, pressure ulcers and hospital readmissions.
In local context: 2 rated facilities in Gary average 1 out of 5, and the Indiana average is 3.1. APERION CARE TOLLESTON PARK rates 1 out of 5, in line with that benchmark. Comparing a facility against its own local market matters because inspection severity, Medicaid reimbursement rates and staffing supply all vary sharply by state.
What APERION CARE TOLLESTON PARK's inspection record shows
No deficiency citations for APERION CARE TOLLESTON PARK appear in the CMS extract this page is built from. That reflects the records CMS has published for this provider, not an inspection performed by Clear Care Connect, and the federal extract can lag a state survey by several months.
Before you rely on a clean record, ask APERION CARE TOLLESTON PARK for the date of its most recent standard survey and for its current CMS Form 2567. Also ask the Indiana survey agency whether any complaint investigations are open, as complaint surveys are logged separately from the standard annual survey cycle.
What nursing home costs near Gary, Indiana
Indiana nursing home typically runs $3,800 to $6,000 per month, a midpoint of roughly $4,900 — about $58,800 a year. This is a state-level market estimate from published rate data for this care type, not a quote from APERION CARE TOLLESTON PARK, and it is the single figure on this page that is modelled rather than reported.
Actual pricing at APERION CARE TOLLESTON PARK depends on room type, whether the community charges a flat all-inclusive rate or a base rate plus tiered care levels, and one-time community or entrance fees. For skilled nursing, Medicare may cover a limited post-hospital stay in full for the first 20 days and partially through day 100 when the stay qualifies; long-term custodial care is generally paid privately or through Medicaid once assets are spent down.
When you call APERION CARE TOLLESTON PARK, ask for the total monthly figure at the care level being recommended — not the base rate — plus the schedule of annual increases over the last three years and what triggers a move to a higher care tier.
