Every nursing home's official inspection record, in plain English.

State inspectors visit every Medicare-certified nursing home, and the federal government publishes what they find — every citation, every fine, and the actual payroll hours nurses worked. Most families never see it. Type the name of a facility you're considering:

The official record

Serious inspection findings (or their absence), CMS's star ratings, fines and penalties, ownership, and the full citation history — every claim dated and linked to its government source.

Staffing from payroll data

Actual nursing hours per resident, computed from federal payroll records — including how weekends compare with weekdays. Facilities don't self-report these numbers; their payroll systems do.

No money from facilities

We don't recommend or rank facilities, we don't book tours, and we take no money from nursing homes — ever. Read our promise.
