Thorne Crest’s Health Center has been given a 5-Star rating by the Center for Medicaid and Medicare Services (CMS.gov). The 5-Star rating is awarded only after a community is considered overall much above average in staffing levels, quality measures and health inspection. Tim O’Brien, V.P. of Quality Services at ABHM (American Baptist Homes of the Midwest), Thorne Crest’s parent company, states “achieving this level of excellence clearly illustrates Thorne Crest’s dedication and commitment to delivering superior service to residents in the greater Albert Lea community.”
