    From the latest CMS Care Compare reconcile

  • Flagged by CMS data

    This facility's long-stay antipsychotic rate is 49% — roughly three times the national median of about 14%. CMS already excludes residents with schizophrenia, Tourette's, and Huntington's from this measure, so this reflects prescribing for residents who don't have a primary psychotic diagnosis. Worth asking on a tour: 'How does my parent get back off these meds if started?'
