Compare Providers

Two or three providers side by side, across the public record: licensing, ratings, inspections, penalties, staffing, ownership, and what care costs locally. Where no agency publishes a figure for a kind of provider, the cell says so rather than sitting empty next to a number and reading like a low score.

Oxford Mason Home vs. Craft Care Home

Care types

What each provider is licensed or certified to deliver. Different care types answer to different regulators, which is why the rows below are not always comparable.

Oxford Mason Home

Assisted Living

Craft Care Home

Assisted Living, Memory Care

Licensed capacity

Beds or units on the license. A capacity, not an occupancy.

Oxford Mason Home

6 beds or units

Craft Care Home

11 beds or units

License status

The status word the state registry uses, reproduced exactly. We do not translate or grade it.

Oxford Mason Home

REGULAR

Issued by Michigan · License AS330011145

Craft Care Home

REGULAR

Issued by Michigan · License AM330288742

Published rating

Whatever the publishing regulator published, on the scale the regulator used. Nothing here is rescaled to five stars.

Not a like-for-like comparison. We hold no published rating for either of these providers, and cannot yet say whether that means there is nothing to report or a file we have not read. Nothing here should be read as a difference between them.

Oxford Mason Home

Not comparable

Michigan publishes no quality rating for assisted living, so no community in this state carries one. CMS star ratings cover the providers Medicare certifies, which does not include assisted living.

Craft Care Home

Not established

No published quality rating for this provider yet. Not every care type or state publishes a star rating. This is not necessarily a red flag.

Inspection citations

How many citations are on record, and how recent the newest one is.

Not a like-for-like comparison. We hold no inspection citations for either of these providers, and cannot yet say whether that means there is nothing to report or a file we have not read. Nothing here should be read as a difference between them.

Oxford Mason Home

Not established

No inspection records are in our data yet. That can mean a clean record, or that this provider's inspection history has not been ingested. Verify directly with the state licensing agency above before assuming either.

Craft Care Home

Not established

No inspection records are in our data yet. That can mean a clean record, or that this provider's inspection history has not been ingested. Verify directly with the state licensing agency above before assuming either.

Fines and payment denials

Enforcement actions on record, with the total fine amount where the source publishes one.

Not a like-for-like comparison. We hold no fines and payment denials for either of these providers, and cannot yet say whether that means there is nothing to report or a file we have not read. Nothing here should be read as a difference between them.

Oxford Mason Home

Not comparable

Fines against an assisted living community are a state matter. CMS publishes civil money penalties for the nursing homes it certifies, and assisted living is not certified by CMS, so no community appears in that file. Michigan publishes no assisted living penalty list we can read.

Craft Care Home

Not established

No fines or enforcement actions from the state licensing agency are in our data for this provider yet.

Nurse staffing hours

Payroll-based nurse hours per resident per day, against the median for the same state.

Not a like-for-like comparison. No public system publishes nurse staffing hours for either of these providers, so there is nothing to compare here for either one.

Oxford Mason Home

Not comparable

Staffing hours are published for nursing homes and for no other kind of provider. Federal law requires Medicare- and Medicaid-certified nursing homes to file payroll-based nurse hours with CMS every quarter, and no agency collects the same return from assisted living communities.

Craft Care Home

Not comparable

Staffing hours are published for nursing homes and for no other kind of provider. Federal law requires Medicare- and Medicaid-certified nursing homes to file payroll-based nurse hours with CMS every quarter, and no agency collects the same return from assisted living communities.

Ownership and chain

Who owns the provider, and who runs it when those are different companies.

Not a like-for-like comparison. Both providers have ownership and chain on record, but for at least one of them we cannot confirm we hold the complete file. Read the smaller number as "at least this many" rather than as a total, and the gap between the columns as unknown.

Reading the blanks

A blank cell on this page is never just missing. It is one of three claims, and they mean very different things.

None on record.
We hold the whole published file for this measure and this provider is not in it. A real zero, and a finding in its own right.
Not comparable.
No agency publishes this measure for this kind of provider, so no provider of its kind has one. Shown hatched, because it is not a score at all.
Not established.
We cannot yet say whether the silence means a clean record or a file we have not read. We would rather tell you that than guess.
