Facilities with five stars are considered to have above-average quality.
“Laurel Brook’s Five-Star Quality Measures rating from CMS reflects the commitment of the facility’s entire team to provide superior care and services,” Kate Bauer, regional director of market development for Marquis Health Consulting Services, which supports Laurel Brook, said. “CMS’s Five-Star Quality Rating System is highly respected. On a daily basis, it is relied upon by consumers, families and caregivers, as well as business partners.”
