Nursing Homes & Senior Care in Idaho
Idaho maintains 80 CMS-certified nursing homes listed in the Care Compare directory, each assigned an official Five-Star Quality rating from the Centers for Medicare & Medicaid Services. The statewide average overall rating stands at 3.11 of 5.
The Five-Star rating system functions as a relative quality measure with acknowledged limitations. The ratings presented here reflect data from May 2026 and should not be construed as a recommendation or guarantee of care quality. This star rating represents one factor among many that should inform a nursing home decision. Prospective residents and their families should also consider facility location, the specific care services required, the results of an in-person visit, and direct conversations with nursing home staff and clinical professionals.
The complete listing includes each facility's overall rating, health-inspection stars, and staffing stars to provide a comprehensive overview at a glance. However, individuals should verify each facility's current rating on its live Medicare Care Compare profile before making any decisions based on these figures, as ratings may be updated after publication.
How to read this. The star ratings here are official CMS Five-Star Quality figures, shown as the rating as of May2026 — a relative quality measure with documented limits, not a recommendation, guarantee, or medical/financial/legal advice. Always confirm the current rating and details on the facility’s live Medicare Care Compare profile, and involve the resident and their clinicians in any decision.
