St. Mary’s Care Center accepts Medicare, Medicaid, and private pay.
St. Mary’s Care Center provides nursing home, skilled nursing, hospice care, palliative care, and respite care in Madison, WI. Nursing home and skilled nursing services provide licensed nursing care on site around the clock. Hospice and palliative care focus on comfort and symptom management for people with serious or advanced illness, while respite care offers a short stay when a usual caregiver needs time away.
The range of care types can suit a resident whose needs change over time. The home has 184 beds and a 60% occupancy rate, so its current resident census is below its full bed capacity.
Total nurse staffing is 4 hours 46 minutes per resident per day. That represents the daily nursing time available for each resident across the home. Medicare, Medicaid, and private pay are accepted: Medicare may help cover eligible short term skilled care after a hospital stay, Medicaid can matter when personal savings may not cover a long stay, and private pay allows care to be funded directly.
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.

Why it matters: employees work here week after week and get to know each resident's routines and needs. Agency contractors often rotate between facilities, so a higher employee share usually means more consistent care.
