These are the top 21 nursing homes in Cincinnati area, says U.S. News

Cincinnati was among the top 50 cities for best nursing homes , according to U.S. News, with 21 facilities in the area being listed as high performers. Out of the 156 nursing homes in the metro area, 127 were rated based on their performance in short-term rehabilitation, long-term rehabilitation or both. Of those rated, 24 were recognized as the best in either short-term or long-term care, and seven were deemed best in both areas. In this year's report from U.S. News & World Report, researchers looked at over 14,600 nursing homes in all 50 states and Washington, D.C., assessing 17 different areas, such as staffing consistency and clinical safety outcomes. Findings show that patients at top performing nursing homes for short-term care experienced 19% fewer emergency room visits than the national average, and those at the best long-term care facilities had 21% fewer hospital readmissions compared to other facilities. The best nursing homes also had higher staff-to-resident ratios and offered double the amount of physical therapy. See below for a full list of the region's top performing nursing homes.
