Quality ratings

On Care Compare (data as of April 2026), the overall star is a roll-up of three separately tracked sub-ratings: health inspection, staffing, and quality measures. The comparison chart below shows where each one sits relative to Washington.

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.

Same-ownership peers

Within Washington, Willow Springs Care and Rehabilitation is one of 65 for profit - corporation nursing homes CMS rates. Its 5-star overall rating sits above the for profit - corporation-segment average of 3.1 stars, ahead of roughly 74% of same-ownership peers in the state.

CMS has levied enforcement penalties - civil money penalties or denials of payment, during the same window.

Where these figures come from
