SACRAMENTO, CA (MPG) - ACC Senior Services is proud to announce that the ACC Care Center has earned the highest possible 5-Star Overall Rating from the Centers for Medicare & Medicaid Services (CMS), a distinction that recognizes excellence in quality of care, staffing and health inspections.

According to the CMS official release, the updated Five-Star Quality Ratings appear on the Medicare Care Compare website on or around July 29. ACC Senior Services is pleased to share this achievement with its residents, families, employees and the greater Sacramento community.

“This achievement reflects the unwavering dedication, compassion and professionalism of every member of our Care Center team,” said Interim President & CEO of ACC Senior Services Jill Hays. “This recognition reinforces our commitment to clinical excellence, person-centered care, and continuous improvement.”

Interim President & CEO of ACC Senior Services Heidi Wheeler added, “We are incredibly proud of our entire Care Center Team and grateful for the trust our residents and families place in us every day.”

The CMS Five-Star Quality Rating System – one of the nation's most trusted measures of nursing home quality – assists families to make informed decisions when choosing care for their loved ones. Facilities are evaluated across three key areas: health inspections, staffing levels and quality measures. An overall 5-Star rating signifies that ACC Care Center performs well above average in delivering skilled nursing and rehabilitation services, placing it among the nation's highest-performing skilled nursing facilities. 

“Achieving five stars represents more than a rating. It reflects the trust we build, the lives we touch, and the excellent care we deliver every day,” said Director of Nursing at ACC Care Center Kristy Moore.
