What each sub-rating measures

Located in Orem, Utah. Bed capacity and average daily census, where CMS reports them, are in Facility details below. Its ownership type, listed in Facility details, can influence staffing patterns, reinvestment decisions, and admissions policy. At roughly 81% occupancy, this facility runs close to its typical range for a stabilized operation.
Same-ownership peers
Within Utah, Cascades at Orchard Park is one of 35 for profit - limited liability company nursing homes CMS rates. Its 4-star overall rating sits above the for profit - limited liability company-segment average of 3.6 stars, ahead of roughly 40% of same-ownership peers in the state. Peer comparisons within the same ownership type are more apples-to-apples than a state-wide average, since for-profit, non-profit, and government operators tend to differ systematically in staffing and reinvestment.
