Same-type reference in IA

CMS overall star rating: this provider 4/5; median among 385 providers with a published value in the same state and provider category: 3/5.

CareRecords calculates this unweighted median from the loaded source snapshot. Providers with missing values are excluded. It is a descriptive reference, not a new quality rating or recommendation. Individual reporting periods may differ; do not compare different rating systems.

Questions to take to Lake Mills Care Center

  • The published staff-turnover figure is 25%. Ask which reporting period it covers and how the current staffing team compares.
  • Ask who is responsible for care decisions locally and at LEGACY HEALTHCARE. A shared affiliation does not establish identical care at every location.
  • Check the source date and the latest official record before deciding. Bring the issues above to a visit or call rather than treating the profile as a recommendation.
