Our read on Cedarwood Post Acute

Cedarwood Post Acute runs 51 beds in Sacramento under corporate for-profit ownership, and its numbers pull in two directions at once. The clinical quality measures look strong at five stars, and the health inspection rating sits at three, a recent June 2025 survey with 45 total deficiencies on record, three of them abuse-related, though none rose to actual harm or jeopardy. Where it falls apart is staffing: one star, the lowest CMS gives, even as annual turnover of 37.5% beats the national 45.8%. That combination matters. Better-than-average retention doesn't mean enough hands on deck, and with 51 beds and a for-profit operator, the question worth asking is what the daily aide and nurse coverage actually looks like on the shifts your family would visit.
