About Nursing Home Care in Foley
When it comes to nursing home care in Foley, MN, families should proceed with caution. The standout is The Gardens at Foley LLC, but it still receives a Grade D, indicating significant concerns. With only one facility in the area and none meeting our standards, Foley presents a concerning market for nursing home care. Families may want to explore options in neighboring cities for better alternatives.
Unfortunately, there are no facilities in Foley worth recommending. The Gardens at Foley LLC is the only option available, but it has serious shortcomings and does not have any notable strengths to highlight. With a Grade D rating and no evidence of being well-staffed or having a nonprofit model, we strongly suggest families seek care options in nearby areas like St. Cloud or Sartell, where more reputable facilities can be found.
Families should definitely avoid The Gardens at Foley LLC due to its poor rating and lack of positive attributes. With no fines reported, the absence of major red flags might seem reassuring, but the overall quality of care still raises alarms. A practical tip for visiting any facility is to ask detailed questions about staff-to-resident ratios and how often residents receive personal attention. This can give you a clearer picture of the care your loved ones can expect.

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
- Quality Measures — Clinical outcomes like falls, pressure ulcers, and rehospitalizations
- Penalties — Fines, payment denials, and enforcement actions
- Complaints — Substantiated complaints and their severity
In Foley, 0 facilities score a B grade or better, indicating they meet quality benchmarks across these categories. We recommend families prioritize these facilities and carefully research any facility rated C or below before visiting.

0 Foley 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
