The best rank a general can earn is four stars, but the State Nursing Home in Fayetteville is now the proud owner of a perfect five-star review from Medicare.gov.
The 150-bed facility, which has been serving North Carolina veterans since 1999, has steadily improved its rank from three to four and now five stars since the ratings system was introduced about two and a half years ago. It reflects a deficiency-free inspection conducted in March that examined such indicators as health inspections; ratio of nursing staff to residents; quality measures including aspects of residents’ health, physical functioning, mental status and general well being; and meeting fire and life safety requirements.
We are grateful for this recognition and proud of our staff, which works so hard to help our veterans live safe, healthy and meaningful lives.
