WEST BRANDYWINE, PA — Freedom Village at Brandywine, a prominent retirement community in Chester County, has been awarded a five-star rating by the Centers for Medicare & Medicaid Services (CMS). This prestigious recognition is the highest possible rating given by CMS to nursing home health centers, reflecting their excellent performance in health inspections, staffing levels, and quality measures.
The CMS rating system evaluates publicly available Medicare data across five care categories: mortality, safety of care, readmission, patient experience, and timely and effective care. Only the top 10% of nursing homes nationwide achieve the distinction of a five-star rating, making this recognition an impressive feat.
Freedom Village at Brandywine’s Executive Director, Danielle Geyer, expressed pride in the recognition, attributing it to the hard work and dedication of the staff. “This recognition is a testament to the dedication and hard work of our exceptional staff who consistently go above and beyond to provide the highest quality of care to our residents,” said Geyer.
