Same-type reference in MA

CMS overall star rating: this provider 1/5; median among 338 providers with a published value in the same state and provider category: 3/5.

Questions to take to Maplewood Center

  • CMS lists SFF Candidate. Ask for the latest inspection and current designation; historical list status is not a statement about conditions today.
  • The published staff-turnover figure is 55.2%. Ask which reporting period it covers and how the current staffing team compares.
  • 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.
