Understanding Our Trust Score System
The Trust Score is a 0-100 rating calculated from CMS's official nursing home database. The score combines five data categories:
- Health Inspection Results — Recent deficiencies, their severity, and patterns over time
- Staffing Levels — RN hours, total nursing hours, and weekend staffing

- Penalties — Fines, payment denials, and enforcement actions

Staffing: A Significant Concern in Crestwood

Crestwood facilities average 0.56 RN hours per resident day, which falls below the CMS-recommended threshold of 0.75 hours. The typical Crestwood resident receives approximately 34 minutes of RN attention daily—compared to the 45 minutes experts recommend.
0 Crestwood facilities exceed CMS staffing recommendations. Families prioritizing staffing should look for facilities with the "Top Staffing" badge and ask specifically about RN hours during facility visits.
Ownership: An All For-Profit Market
Crestwood has no non-profit nursing homes—all 3 facilities with reported ownership data are for-profit operations. 2 of 3 facilities are chain-owned, meaning these facilities are part of larger corporate systems rather than independently operated.
Research suggests non-profit facilities often have higher staffing levels and fewer deficiencies on average. The absence of non-profit options in Crestwood may be worth noting. Families seeking non-profit care should consider facilities in surrounding areas.
Ownership type alone does not guarantee quality. Several for-profit facilities in Crestwood perform well. Families should evaluate each facility individually using inspection data, staffing levels, and recent deficiency reports rather than ownership type alone.
