The Garlands Receives Perfect 5-Star Rating, Again

Center for Medicare Services gives high rating to Prairieview at the Garlands.

Prairieview at The Garlands achieved a perfect five-star rating for two consecutive years from the federal government’s Center for Medicare Services (CMS).

“This is a remarkable accomplishment and a true testimony to the quality and value our members-only skilled nursing program offers our residents in the event they should ever need these services,” said Garlands Executive Director David Loop.

Health-inspection results, adequacy of nursing staffing and quality of medical care determine each star rating.
