Data insights

On Care Compare (data as of April 2026), Mountain View Care Center carries an overall CMS quality rating of 4 out of 5 stars. That figure rolls up three sub-ratings tracked separately: health inspection (3/5), staffing (2/5), and quality measures (5/5).
What each sub-rating measures

Size and setting
Located in Tucson, Arizona, this facility operates 120 certified beds with an average daily census of roughly 100 residents - an occupancy rate of about 83%. The facility is classified under for profit - limited liability company ownership, a designation that can influence staffing patterns, reinvestment decisions, and admissions policy. At about 83% occupancy, this facility's bed usage looks steady and consistent with a stabilized operation.
Same-ownership peers
Within Arizona, Mountain View Care Center is one of 54 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 3.4 stars, ahead of roughly 56% 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.
