On Care Compare (data as of April 2026), Morningside Nursing And Rehabilitation Center carries an overall CMS quality rating of 3 out of 5 stars. That figure rolls up three sub-ratings tracked separately: health inspection (2/5), staffing (2/5), and quality measures (5/5).

What each sub-rating measures

The staffing rating compares case-mix-adjusted nurse hours per resident day to national benchmarks, and quality measures aggregate 15 clinical indicators including pressure ulcers, falls with injury, and long-stay antipsychotic use.

Size and setting

Located in Bronx, New York, this facility operates 386 certified beds with an average daily census of roughly 303 residents - an occupancy rate of about 78%. The facility is classified under for profit - corporation ownership, a designation that can influence staffing patterns, reinvestment decisions, and admissions policy. At roughly 78% occupancy, this facility has meaningful open capacity relative to its certified bed count.

Same-ownership peers

Within New York, Morningside Nursing And Rehabilitation Center is one of 143 for profit - corporation nursing homes CMS rates. Its 3-star overall rating sits above the for profit - corporation-segment average of 2.9 stars, ahead of roughly 43% of same-ownership peers in the state.

This is a high deficiency count relative to most facilities; requesting the full survey report directly is the only way to see whether these are concentrated in one area or spread across the facility's operations.

Where these figures come from

The figures above come directly from the U.S. Centers for Medicare \& Medicaid Services Nursing Home Compare dataset for federal quality ratings, combined with the CareScout 2025 Cost of Care Survey of more than 15,000 elder-care providers nationwide and U.S. Census American Community Survey income data. Cost figures are monthly medians, refreshed annually with each new CareScout release; quality ratings are refreshed quarterly from the CMS Provider Information File. Read these state and county medians as benchmarks, then verify current rates with individual providers and consult care managers before making placement decisions.
