St. Catherine’s Manor of Washington Court House was recently named a 5-Star care community, according to the Centers for Medicare and Medicaid Services (CMS).

CMS developed a rating system to help families and caregivers compare nursing homes more easily and to help identify areas about which you may want to ask questions when considering nursing home placement.

The rating system is based between 1 and 5 stars with 5 stars indicating a much above average quality for a facility. The overall 5-star rating includes a look at these specific areas, health inspection, staffing and quality measures.

“We are so honored to have the distinction of being the only overall 5 star rated care community in Fayette County! Our staff’s dedication to providing quality care and services, as well as the relationships they develop with our residents and families are what help to make our Care Community successful. We will continually strive to improve upon our measures to ensure our quality remains at the level our residents deserve,” said Sue Thomas, Administrator.

St. Catherine’s Manor of Washington Court House is a care community that specializes in both the long term and short term care needs of its patients, offering comprehensive physical, occupational and speech therapy programs, as well as memory care in a secure setting, respite stays and a designated Hospice suite.
