CMS gives The Grove Post Acute an overall rating of 5 of 5 stars. The last standard survey was on 19 Jun 2025. The latest survey cycle has 22 health citations. The median for nursing homes in California is 14. CMS lists no fines for this home in its penalties file.

Facilities may see a change in their overall rating for a number of reasons. Since the overall rating is based on three individual domains, a change in any one of the domains can affect the overall rating. Any new data for a nursing home could potentially change a star rating domain.
