Non-profit nursing homes in South Dakota by CMS rating

How this list works

What counts as a non-profit nursing home?

One whose ownership type in CMS's data is non-profit: a non-profit corporation, a church-related organization or another non-profit. Government-owned homes, such as county or state homes, are a separate CMS category and aren't on this list.

Are non-profit nursing homes in South Dakota rated higher?

On average, yes: non-profit homes in South Dakota average 3.2 stars and for-profit homes 2.5, computed from CMS data, October 2026. An average hides wide differences between homes, so compare each home's ratings, staffing and inspection record.

Where do the ratings come from?

From CMS's Nursing Home Care Compare (the same data as Medicare.gov), October 2026. The overall rating combines health inspections, staffing and quality measures; inspections weigh the most.

Is this a recommendation?

No. It is a ranking of CMS's published ratings. Ratings can change every month, and a home's rating may not reflect a recent change in ownership or staff. Visit, ask questions and read the inspection reports.
