Prestige Care Centers receive “Five-Star” rating from CMS

PORTLAND – Prestige Care is pleased to recognize its skilled nursing centers for achieving a “Five-Star Overall Rating” by the Centers for Medicare and Medicaid Services (CMS).

Eight Prestige centers in three states earned the highest rating from CMS based on the centers’ much above average performance in several measurable areas of quality and safety. The five-star centers that were recognized by CMS included local facility, Colonial Vista Post-Acute and Rehabilitation Center, along with Carson Tahoe Transitional Rehabilitation Center in Nevada; Cascade Terrace Nursing Center, Hood River Care Center, Prestige Care and Rehabilitation of Reedwood, Timberview Care Center in Oregon; and Discovery Nursing and Rehab of Vancouver, and Prestige Post-Acute and Rehab Center – Kittitas in Washington.  

CMS created the Five-Star Quality Rating System to help consumers, their families and caregivers easily compare skilled nursing and rehabilitation centers. The Centers’ Nursing Home Care Compare website features a quality rating system that gives each skilled nursing center a rating between one and five stars. Centers with five stars are considered to be significantly above average in health inspections, staffing and quality measures. 

“Across all of our Prestige centers, ensuring we provide safe, high-quality care is always our highest priority. These centers exemplify our commitment and set the standard for the care and service patients and families deserve when they’re in need of skilled nursing care,” said Molly Jones, Division Vice President. “We’re so proud to recognize all of the team members whose commitment to safe, quality care helps earn ratings like these, and we look forward to continually enhancing all of the care and service we provide.”
