Project Details
About the project
Now in its eighth edition, America’s Best Nursing Homes was created with the goal of bringing more transparency to the industry as well as recognizing facilities who are striving to provide excellent care. By combining existing data with our specialist knowledge and feedback from medical professionals in the industry, a comprehensive evaluation of the best nursing homes in America was created.
The scope of evaluation of this ranking was expanded in this edition, and for the first time nursing homes from all U.S. states (plus the District of Columbia) were evaluated. Facilities in all regions were evaluated on a per-facility level, i.e., not as a chain.
Only nursing homes meeting the following criteria were eligible for further evaluation: the facility must have a minimum of 50 certified beds as registered with the Centers for Medicare and Medicaid Services (CMS), it must not be part of the Special Focus Facility (SFF) program, and it must reach a performance-based threshold.
The final list recognizes 1,325 nursing homes in 3 categories: 50-99 beds, 100-149 beds, and 150+ beds. Within each category, nursing homes were ranked against other facilities within their own state or region. This allows potential residents, staff, and other stakeholders to quickly see which facilities are top-rated in their area.
METHODOLOGY
How we work
Learn about our general approach to creating healthcare rankings. Further details about how the ranking was created can be found in the America's Best Nursing Homes 2027.
01 Concept
For our healthcare projects, we provide comprehensive insights into the quality of healthcare providers and facilities through our rankings. These rankings help patients make informed, data-driven decisions about their medical needs. They also give healthcare facilities a composite benchmark to understand their position relative to their peers. Integrating data from diverse performance indicators and expert knowledge, we deliver rankings that recognize excellence and promote high standards in healthcare.
02 Data Collection
Our team of analysts employs a range of data sources including questionnaires collecting insights from professionals and data submitted directly by hospitals through the Statista PROMs Implementation and Smart Hospitals Maturity surveys. Publicly available data on quality metrics and patient experience are also assessed. In collaboration with a global board of experts, we are continuously advancing our methodologies to compile the most trusted healthcare rankings.
03 Evaluation
Healthcare analysts at Statista Rankings apply advanced scoring models comprising numerous data pillars to ensure robust and reliable results. Evaluation relies largely on diverse quality indicators and survey results, with pillar weightings adjusted per project based on data availability. These tailored models are used to calculate scores for each facility and determine the final rankings.
04 Quality Assurance
As we are committed to quality, every ranking undergoes a thorough verification process to validate the data used and ensure that the top healthcare providers are recognized. Our experienced team of analysts conducts extensive research on a range of healthcare topics and facilities—including hospitals, nursing homes, and doctors—guaranteeing the utmost reliability in Statista's rankings.
