Score Breakdown
What the numbers mean
STRATFORD MANOR REHABILITATION AND CARE CENTER LLC scored 76 out of 100 — 7 points above the state average of 69.
📋 Inspections: 18 citations over the last 36 months — 2 more than the state average (16). None were rated as causing actual harm to residents. 1 finding recurred across inspection cycles — indicating a problem that was not fixed.
⚠️ Staffing: Staffing levels are below average. Lower staffing is associated with longer response times, more pressure injuries, and higher hospitalization rates. Ask the facility directly about their RN-to-resident ratio and how they handle shortfalls.
⚖️ Penalties & enforcement: No significant federal fines or enforcement actions on record — a positive indicator of consistent regulatory compliance.
💬 Complaints: Low complaint activity — few formal complaints from residents or families have triggered inspections. Ask if there is a family council you can speak with.
💚 Resident quality outcomes: This facility's star-rated quality measures are in the strong range. Key indicators like fall rates, antipsychotic use, and vaccination coverage compare favorably to national benchmarks — a positive signal for day-to-day resident care.
What inspectors found (last 3 surveys)
Top concern areas
⚖ Penalties & Enforcement
Federal civil monetary penalties (CMPs) are only issued after a facility has failed two levels of regulatory review — meaning problems were found on inspection and the facility could not rebut the findings. This is a serious escalation beyond a standard citation.
📅 Per-action enforcement records (date, fine amount, and penalty type for each individual action) are sourced from a separate CMS enforcement dataset and will be added in a future data update.
Resident Wellbeing — Key Indicators
These are the measures families ask about most. They come from CMS clinical assessments of every resident — not just inspection reports. Stars (★) count toward the official CMS quality star rating.
