U.S. News & World Report’s 2025 Best Nursing Homes
U.S. News & World Report’s 2025 Best Nursing Homes Names Mary Ann Morse Healthcare Center Among Best in Massachusetts
Natick, MA – (January 3, 2025) – Mary Ann Morse Healthcare Center has been recognized as a Best Nursing Home for 2025 by U.S. News & World Report.
Since 2009, U.S. News’ annual Best Nursing Homes ratings have assisted American families in need of either short-term rehabilitation or long-term care for themselves or a loved one.
Mary Ann Morse Healthcare Center earned its U.S. News Best Nursing Home status by achieving a rating of “High Performing,” the highest possible rating, for Short-Term Rehabilitation. U.S. News gives the designation of Best Nursing Home only to those that satisfy U.S. News’ proprietary assessment of consistent performance in quality measures.
“We are extremely proud and honored to have earned this distinction for the second year in a row,” said Biya Paul, Executive Director of Mary Ann Morse Healthcare Center. “Our skilled clinicians are dedicated to providing highly personalized therapy and work together to facilitate healing and maximize every patient’s quality of life.”
For the 2025 edition, U.S. News evaluated nearly 15,000 nursing homes on patient and resident outcomes, such as infection rates, staffing levels, potentially inappropriate reliance on antipsychotic drugs, health inspection results, and other indicators of quality.
“U.S. News’ Best Nursing Homes ratings put patient well-being at the forefront and provide families with the objective information they need to make confident decisions about their loved ones’ care,” said Ben Harder, Chief of Health Analysis and Managing Editor at U.S. News. “These annual ratings recognize U.S. nursing homes that deliver high-quality care, earning consistent positive outcomes, and support American families in finding local nursing homes that prioritize safety and well-being.”
To calculate the Best Nursing Homes ratings, U.S. News evaluated each nursing home’s performance using a variety of quality measures obtained from the Centers for Medicare & Medicaid Services (CMS). The U.S. News methodology factors data such as resident care, safety, and outcomes. Both short- and long-term ratings include data on nurse staffing, use of antipsychotic drugs, and success in preventing ER and hospital visits. The long-term care rating also includes measures of whether a home changed ownership and how well it was staffed on weekends.
