Data insights

Quality ratings

CMS's most recent Care Compare release (data as of April 2026) puts Trinity Hill Care Center's overall quality rating at 1 out of 5 stars, a composite of three sub-ratings: health inspection (1/5), staffing (3/5), and quality measures (4/5).

What each sub-rating measures

The health inspection rating reflects on-site surveyor findings from the last three cycles. 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 Hartford, Connecticut, this facility operates 144 certified beds with an average daily census of roughly 125 residents - an occupancy rate of about 87%. The facility is classified under for profit - limited liability company ownership, a designation that can influence staffing patterns, reinvestment decisions, and admissions policy. Occupancy of about 87% puts this facility in normal territory for a stabilized operation, neither unusually full nor unusually empty.

Same-ownership peers

Within Connecticut, Trinity Hill Care Center is one of 77 for profit - limited liability company nursing homes CMS rates. Its 1-star overall rating sits below the for profit - limited liability company-segment average of 2.8 stars, ahead of roughly 0% 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.

Inspection record

On the regulatory side, federal and state surveyors have documented multiple deficiencies at this facility (40 total). CMS has levied 1 enforcement penalty - civil money penalties or denials of payment, during the same window. 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.
