Wartburg Earns Spot On Newsweek Best Nursing Home Ranking

MOUNT VERNON, NY (October 23, 2024) – Newsweek publishes “America’s Best Nursing Homes 2025” with Wartburg receiving top honors for the 12th consecutive year. Newsweek partnered with the respected global data research firm Statista Inc. to establish a ranking of “Best Nursing Homes” by analyzing data from over 10,000 nursing homes in the U.S. The “best” nursing homes in the 25 most populous states are published in the report.

This year's list recognizes 1,050 nursing homes across the 25 states with the highest number of facilities, according to Centers for Medicare & Medicaid Services (CMS) data. The top nursing homes in each state were assessed and ranked based on four pillars:

• Performance data
• Recommendations of medical professionals
• Accreditations
• Resident satisfaction.

Wartburg has garnered many local and national recognitions over the years for their superior quality of care and renowned level of service. In addition to Newsweek, Wartburg is consistently recognized by the New York State Department of Health (DOH) for receiving a Nursing Home Quality Initiative (NHQI) score that ranked them in the top (First) quintile for Quality. The NHQI score is comprised of fourteen quality performance measures in compliance and efficiency.

“This recognition is a testament to the hard work and dedication of our staff, who consistently prioritize the well-being and dignity of our residents and provide exceptional care. Their compassion, expertise, and unwavering commitment create a supportive environment where each resident feels valued and respected. We are proud of the deep relationships they build, ensuring that our residents not only receive quality care but also enjoy a sense of belonging and community. Our focus has always been on creating a nurturing environment where each individual can thrive, and this award reinforces our commitment to excellence in care”, said Bridget Zimmermann, Administrator.

“In this challenging environment, I’m extremely proud of our continued presence as a top-tier nursing home, which is only possible because of our employees’ steadfast commitment to care and service,” said Wartburg President Dr. David J. Gentner. He went on to say that “more important than any awards or comparative organizational metrics is the way we work together to provide comfort to those entrusted to our care while we continue to evolve as an organization.”
