A 5 Star CMS Rating – And A Great Bridge To Transition Back Home!

Staten Island Care Center, a premier provider of subacute rehabilitation and skilled nursing care is a proud recipient of a 5-Star Rating by the Centers for Medicare and Medicaid Services (CMS).

The rating system was created by the Centers for Medicare & Medicaid Services (CMS) to help consumers and their families make informed decisions when choosing a facility.  The Five-Star rating system is based on a facility’s dedication to inspection standards, staffing, and quality measures.  Indeed, these increasingly stringent regulations make receiving a 5-Star Rating a great achievement!

Nestled in the heart of Staten Island, overlooking the Verrazano Bridge and the Bay, Staten Island Care Center is a welcoming and cheerful setting – the kind of environment recommended by physicians to their patients in need of rehabilitative and nursing care.

“We are very proud of our accomplishments,” Rafi Motechin, Administrator says. “My staff has worked tirelessly and continuously to provide the highest standard of care for our residents.  We are proud that this is their home and do whatever is necessary to ensure that each and every individual is as happy and comfortable as possible.”

Staten Island Care Center’s remarkable multilingual staff plays an important role in achieving a 5-Star rating. “We are extremely pleased,” says Mr. Motechin. “The 5 Star rating is above all, a clear indication that we are fulfilling the clinical needs of our community and doing it with high standards of hospitality that is valued by our residents.”
