The top 5 nursing homes in 25 states

Newsweek and Statista, a global data research firm, recently named the top nursing homes in 25 states.

The "2024 America's Best Nursing Homes" list includes the top 750 nursing homes out of 12,273 analyzed in 25 states. Rankings were based on four criteria, including performance data, reputation score and a COVID-19 score. A score was also added for facilities accredited by The Joint Commission. Included in the rankings are single branches of nursing homes with at least 100 certified beds. Read more on the methodology here.
