Quality ratings
The Overall CMS Rating combines results from health inspections, staffing levels and quality measures. Health inspections carry the most weight. Staffing and quality scores can increase or decrease the final rating based on performance compared to state and national standards.
Based on the results of the facility's three most recent standard inspections and any complaint investigations. CMS reviews the number, scope, and severity of deficiencies, with more recent findings weighted more heavily.
Measures average nursing staff hours per resident per day, including Registered Nurses (RNs) and total nursing staff. Ratings are adjusted based on the level of care residents require and are compared to state and national benchmarks.
Based on clinical and physical health indicators reported to CMS, such as hospital readmissions, falls, pressure ulcers, and improvements in mobility. These measures reflect how well residents' health needs are being managed.

Avamere Rehabilitation at Ridgemont Reviews
Kelli Newman-Hartline
Before my husband release last week, this would have been a positive review. My husband is recovering from a stroke and the entire time he was in their care, the management promised that he would be released with reliable home care in place, and a doctor that we could be in contact with. It has been 6 days since my husband was released and we have no help. NONE. I have had the paramedics out to assist on 2 occasions. When I brought to the attention of the admin and Robert in particular, I was told that they made the calls and people were supposed to contact me and that his job was completed and it was in our hands to follow up. What is his job, but to make sure that this doesn’t happen. I have a full time job that I have to go to and my husband has to spend time alone, with no after care, no physical therapy, no occupational therapy.
