Same-type reference in AZ

CMS overall star rating: this provider 3/5; median among 139 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 Santa Rosa Care Center

  • The snapshot includes a CMS abuse citation icon. Ask which inspection it relates to, what corrective action followed, and whether CMS has updated the designation.
  • The published staff-turnover figure is 58.2%. Ask which reporting period it covers and how the current staffing team compares.
  • Ask who is responsible for care decisions locally and at THE ENSIGN GROUP. 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.
