Harbour’s Edge Celebrates Perfect 5-Star CMS Skilled Nursing Rating

Harbours-Edge-CMS-RatingChoosing the right senior living community is about more than just selecting a beautiful home with engaging amenities. At Harbour’s Edge in Delray Beach, the promise of excellent senior care has been nationally recognized. Our skilled nursing neighborhood has received the highest possible distinction—a 5-star overall rating from the Centers for Medicare & Medicaid Services (CMS). This recognition places Harbour’s Edge among the most exceptional skilled nursing providers in the country, affirming our commitment to unparalleled care, exceptional service, and a lifestyle designed around the needs of every resident.

Why a 5-Star CMS Rating is an Extraordinary Achievement

The CMS 5-star rating system is a respected national tool that helps families compare skilled nursing providers based on measurable quality standards. A perfect 5-star rating is awarded only to those communities that consistently exceed expectations across three key categories:

  • Health Inspections: Comprehensive evaluations conducted by state surveyors ensure each community adheres to the highest safety, sanitation, and quality-of-care standards. Harbour’s Edge’s top marks demonstrate our meticulous attention to detail and proactive approach to maintaining excellence in every aspect of our operations.
  • Staffing: This measure reflects the amount of personalized time and direct care each resident receives from licensed nurses and certified caregivers. At Harbour’s Edge, our staffing levels exceed the CMS thresholds, ensuring residents benefit from attentive, individualized care that fosters both physical wellness and emotional healing.
  • Quality Measures: These metrics assess outcomes such as recovery after illness or surgery, preservation of mobility, and ongoing management of health conditions. Our 5-star score confirms that our residents receive not only expert clinical care, but also the support they need to enjoy each day.

For residents and their families, this rating is more than a statistic. It’s a testament to the standards and values that define our community. Whether you are here for rehabilitation support or to be part of our dynamic independent living neighborhood, you can feel confidence knowing that award-winning skilled nursing care is always within reach.

A Lifestyle that Balances Joy Today with Security for Tomorrow

Harbour’s Edge offers independent living with choices, freedom, and connection through coastal dining, fitness, cultural events, and workshops. Residents can explore passions and new interests. A distinctive feature is the security of skilled nursing care on-site, allowing residents to remain in their beloved waterfront community with friends and familiar staff, ensuring a high quality of care, and supporting emotional and social well-being during transitions.
