How this home got 5 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 Washington.

  2. Staffing

    no change

    Only a 5-star staffing rating adds a star, and only a 1-star rating removes one. Ratings of 2 to 4 change nothing.

  3. Quality measures

    no change (already 5)

    Same rule: 5 stars adds one, 1 star takes one away. These measures are mostly reported by the home itself.

  4. Overall

    5 of 5

    Matches the rating CMS publishes on Care Compare.

Where it sits among Washington homes

The Oaks At Timberline carries 21 inspection points. That is fewer than 96% of Washington's 192 rated homes.

5★4★3★2★1★+6 homes above 393.505102550100200inspection points → fewer is better on the leftThis home · 21 pts · 5★

Inspectors' citations earn points by how serious and how widespread they were (the grid below). CMS then ranks every home in Washington: 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★ 0–31 pts
  • 4★ 31–69 pts
  • 3★ 69–100 pts
  • 2★ 100–167 pts
  • 1★ over 167 pts

Bars show every rated home in Washington 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

14 health citations on record since 2024. 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.
