Vermont: CMS Rating Breakdown
Vermont has 33 CMS-certified nursing homes with an average Five-Star overall rating of 2.88 out of 5, according to current official CMS figures. By ownership structure, the state's facilities break down as follows: 22 for-profit operations, 10 nonprofit facilities, and 1 government-run home.
The Five-Star rating system carries documented limitations, and a statewide average serves as a broad indicator rather than a definitive assessment of individual facilities. When making decisions about a specific nursing home, stakeholders should consult the facility's dedicated Care Compare profile and per-facility pages, which provide detailed, facility-specific information. The Five-Star rating does not constitute medical, financial, or legal advice.
How to read this. The star ratings here are official CMS Five-Star Quality figures, shown as the rating as of May2026 — a relative quality measure with documented limits, not a recommendation, guarantee, or medical/financial/legal advice. Always confirm the current rating and details on the facility’s live Medicare Care Compare profile, and involve the resident and their clinicians in any decision.

Informational only — not medical, financial, or legal advice. Senior Care by State reports official CMS Five-Star Quality data, which is a relative measure with documented limitations — not a recommendation or a guarantee that any facility is right for you. Choosing care is a personal medical and financial decision: confirm the current details with the facility directly, talk with the resident’s physician and care team, and verify ratings and coverage on Medicare.gov or with your state’s long-term-care or health agency before relying on anything here. For medical, financial, or legal questions, consult a qualified professional.
