CareRank — Free 4-minute quiz

The free 4-minute quiz

It's 2 AM and the discharge nurse just called — we've got you.

The planner said he can't go home, and you need a home this week. Five quick questions about your parent's needs — tonight you get your ranked shortlist, tomorrow morning you call the top 2. No account, no payment; your top matches with scores are free. We'll only ask for your email at the end, so we can send your matches (unsubscribe anytime, one click).

Question 1 of 5

Where should we look?

Your parent's ZIP code — or yours, if you'll be the one visiting.

ZIP code

Question 2 of 5

What matters most to your family?

We'll weight your scores by this. Be honest — there's no wrong answer.

Staffing levels — nurse hours per resident

Quality of care — falls, infections, hospital visits

Inspection record — what inspectors found on site

Question 3 of 5

What kind of care does your parent need?

Check all that apply. This shapes your tour questions — the CMS data doesn't list specialty programs, so we'll flag exactly what to ask each home by phone.

Memory / dementia careSecure unit, staff trained in dementia Short-term rehab after hospitalPhysical / occupational / speech therapy Ventilator careRespiratory support on site Bariatric careEquipment and staff for larger patients DialysisOn-site or arranged transport

Question 4 of 5

How far would you travel to visit?

Closer means more visits. Visits mean better care — that's not a slogan, it's the data.

Question 5 of 5

Minimum overall rating?

CMS rates homes 1–5 stars overall. A lower floor shows more options; a higher floor shows only the strongest. Homes CMS hasn't rated are always shown honestly as "not rated".
