Life Care Services, An LCS Company, has announced that 37 of its managed communities received a five-star rating from the  Centers for Medicare and Medicaid Services (CMS). The five-star rating is the highest possible rating CMS awards to nursing home health centers based on their performance on health inspections, staffing levels, and quality measures. Only the top 10 percent of nursing homes nationwide achieve this distinction. 

“We are thrilled to see each of these communities receive this recognition from CMS as it reflects our commitment to providing the highest quality care for our residents,” said Sharon Roth Maguire, SVP/Chief Health & Wellness/Resident Experience Officer. “These ratings also bring well-deserved attention to the dedication and expertise of our health care professionals and care teams, and to the value Life Care Services brings to the communities we serve.” 

Using December 2023 data, the 37 Life Care Services Communities recognized with 5-star ratings include:   

The CMS star rating uses publicly available Medicare data to evaluate quality information across five care categories into a single-star rating. Categories include mortality, safety of care, readmission, patient experience, and timely and effective care. 

Life Care Services is the nation’s third-largest operator of senior living communities, providing solutions to 140 communities and more than 40,000 seniors.
