Apache Junction Health Center has been named one of the best nursing homes in the nation by U.S. News & World Report for 2024. 

The annual Best Nursing Homes ratings, now in their 14th year, assist prospective residents and their families in making informed decisions in consultation with their medical professionals about where to receive short-term or long-term nursing home care. For 2024, U.S. News rated more than 15,000 nursing homes on care, safety, infection rates, staffing, and health inspections. Only 16% of U.S skilled-nursing facilities earned the “Best Nursing Home” designation this year.

“Choosing the right nursing home based on care needs and comfort is a critical decision for prospective residents and their families,” said Zach Adams, health data engineer at U.S. News. “The Best Nursing Homes ratings highlight nursing homes that excel in short-term rehabilitation and long-term care needs.”
