About Nursing Home Care in Burke
The nursing home market in Burke, VA, is average at best, with limited options for families seeking care for their loved ones. The standout is Greenspring Village, the only facility in the area, but it comes with a mixed review. While it has a clean record with zero fines in the last three years, it lacks the staffing levels you might expect for optimal care, making the overall assessment a bit concerning.
Given the lack of strong options in Burke itself, families might want to consider nearby cities like Fairfax or Springfield for better alternatives. In Burke, Greenspring Village is your only bet, and while it is a reputable choice, it’s essential to visit and gauge the environment firsthand. The facility has maintained a clean record, which is a positive sign, but the absence of well-staffed options remains a drawback.
There are no facilities to outright avoid in Burke, as none have major red flags. However, be cautious and do thorough visits to any potential facility. A practical tip is to ask for a sit-down meeting with staff during your visit; this will give you insight into the level of care and attention your loved one will receive.

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 Burke, 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.
Staffing: A Significant Concern in Burke
Staffing levels are among the most important predictors of nursing home quality. Research consistently shows that facilities with more nursing staff—especially registered nurses—have better outcomes for residents.
Burke facilities average 0.54 RN hours per resident day, which falls below the CMS-recommended threshold of 0.75 hours. The typical Burke resident receives approximately 32 minutes of RN attention daily—compared to the 45 minutes experts recommend.
0 Burke 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
Burke has no non-profit nursing homes—all 1 facility with reported ownership data are for-profit operations. 1 of 1 facility is 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 Burke 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 Burke perform well. Families should evaluate each facility individually using inspection data, staffing levels, and recent deficiency reports rather than ownership type alone.
