Senior care records in South Dakota
Who inspects care here, and what do the numbers mean?
Nursing homes in South Dakota are certified by Medicare, which inspects them, investigates complaints and grades every finding from A to L — from paperwork at one end to immediate jeopardy, meaning a resident was put in danger, at the other. Medicare also publishes its own star rating, which we reproduce and never adjust. Coverage here is 52 counties and 96 providers.
