How this home got 4 stars

The overall rating isn't an average. CMS starts from the inspection rating and nudges it at most two steps. Here is the arithmetic for this home, using CMS's own rules.

  1. Health inspections

    starting point

    Everything starts from what state inspectors found on site. This is a ranking against other homes in North Carolina.

  2. Staffing

    Not rated

    not rated

    CMS did not rate staffing here, so it does not move the star.

  3. Quality measures

    Not rated

    not rated

    CMS did not rate quality measures here, so they do not move the star.

  4. Overall

    4 of 5

    Matches the rating CMS publishes on Care Compare.

Where it sits among North Carolina homes

Arbor Acres United Methodist Retirement Community carries 12 inspection points. That is fewer than 74% of North Carolina's 415 rated homes.

Inspectors' citations earn points by how serious and how widespread they were (the grid below). CMS then ranks every home in North Carolina: the 10% with the fewest points get 5 stars, the 20% with the most get 1 star, and the middle 70% split evenly into 2, 3 and 4.

  • 5★ 0–4 pts
  • 4★ 4–15 pts
  • 3★ 15–35 pts
  • 2★ 35–73.5 pts
  • 1★ over 73.5 pts

Bars show every rated home in North Carolina by its weighted inspection score. CMS recalibrates the cut points monthly but holds a home's rating until its own score changes, so a home can sit just outside today's band.

What inspectors found

1 health citations on record since 2026. Each one gets a letter: the row says how badly residents were affected, the column how many.

Read the rows, not the total. Most citations nationwide are a D: one problem, nobody hurt. Rows G–I mean a resident was harmed; J–L mean inspectors found residents in immediate danger of serious injury or death.

Small numbers in each cell are the inspection points CMS assigns per citation. Those points are what the state curve above ranks.

No citation on record at the harm or immediate-jeopardy level.
