What these ratings do and do not tell you

The overall rating folds together inspections, staffing and quality measures. Inspections carry the most weight.

Staffing hours are the number to read on your own. A five-rated home with thin registered nurse cover is a different place at three in the morning.

Visit before you decide. Go without an appointment. The record here tells you where to look, not what you will find.
