Nursing homes in Arizona

All 140 Medicare-certified nursing homes in Arizona — the safety record CMS publishes, in one place you can sort and search.

Before the brochure: look at staffing

The single best-evidenced predictor of safe care is not the marketing — it's nurse hours per resident per day (how much hands-on nursing time each resident actually gets). CMS measures it from payroll. Researchers and CMS point to about 4.1 total nurse hours/resident/day as a staffing-adequacy reference.

In Arizona, the median nursing home reports 3.81 hours/resident/day — and just 37% (50 of 135 that report staffing; 5 report none) meet the 4.1-hour reference. The catch a star rating hides: 34 Arizona homes rated 4–5★ overall staff below the 4.1-hour adequacy reference — they sit flagged understaffed for rating in the table below, which opens sorted by staffing, not stars.

CMS Special Focus facilities in Arizona (6)

RECORDED CMS places its most seriously and persistently underperforming homes on the Special Focus Facility program (or names them candidates). This is CMS's own designation — recorded here, not an Atlas verdict.

Nurse-hours cells are colored green ≥ 4.1 · grey ≥ 3.81 · red below median. understaffed for rating = 4–5★ but staffs below the 4.1-hour reference. ⚠ abuse = CMS abuse/neglect citation (a citation, not a conviction).

What these figures mean

MODELED — the star ratings are CMS's composite model; two homes with the same stars can differ on what matters to you.
RECORDED — nurse hours/resident/day (payroll-based), the abuse citation, and the Special Focus designation are measured/recorded facts CMS publishes.
CONTEXT — the 4.1-hour staffing reference is framing to read the numbers by, not a pass/fail line.

Also available: structured data (JSON-LD) · plain text

What this is — and is not

This is published CMS Nursing Home Care Compare data — the same facts CMS shows the public, sorted so you can compare. It informs and compares; it does not rate, rank, or recommend a home for your relative's specific needs, and no figure here is a guarantee. Shortlist a few, visit in person, ask about the most recent inspection, and call your state Long-Term Care Ombudsman.
