How to read MEADOWS OF CENTRAL MASSACHUSETTS (THE)'s star rating

The CMS overall star rating for MEADOWS OF CENTRAL MASSACHUSETTS (THE) 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 2-star overall rating means MEADOWS OF CENTRAL MASSACHUSETTS (THE) 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 MEADOWS OF CENTRAL MASSACHUSETTS (THE), CMS currently publishes 2 out of 5 for health inspections, 3 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 Massachusetts 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: the Massachusetts average is 3. MEADOWS OF CENTRAL MASSACHUSETTS (THE) rates 2 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 MEADOWS OF CENTRAL MASSACHUSETTS (THE)'s inspection record shows

No deficiency citations for MEADOWS OF CENTRAL MASSACHUSETTS (THE) 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 MEADOWS OF CENTRAL MASSACHUSETTS (THE) for the date of its most recent standard survey and for its current CMS Form 2567. Also ask the Massachusetts 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 Rochdale, Massachusetts

Massachusetts 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 MEADOWS OF CENTRAL MASSACHUSETTS (THE), and it is the single figure on this page that is modelled rather than reported.
