*Facility report card scores have not been updated since March 1, 2020 due to changes in the survey process during the ongoing COVID-19 pandemic. 
The facility report card score is calculated four times per calendar year 
for the two most recent nursing home health surveys.  The facility report card score 
also includes all complaint surveys, life safety code surveys, emergency preparedness surveys, 
and any follow-up surveys that occur within the two most recent nursing home health surveys. 
The facility report card score ranges from 500 to 0, with 500 being the best score possible.
