Finding the right nursing home for your elderly loved one is not a task to be taken lightly. Unfortunately, nursing home abuse and neglect are commonplace, affecting at least 10% of all seniors each year by some estimations, so the importance of choosing a reliable and highly rated nursing home cannot be overstated.

To help people find and choose a dependable nursing home, Newsweek has released its list of “Best Nursing Homes 2025,” featuring nursing homes and centers across the U.S. The list includes 1,050 nursing homes located in the 25 states with the most nursing home facilities based on data from the Centers for Medicare and Medicaid Services (CMS); a total of 14,858 were reviewed. Newsweek used four factors to determine which nursing homes deserved to be recognized as among the “best,” including performance data, recommendations from medical professionals, accreditations, and of course, resident satisfaction.

We want to do our part in helping people stay safe and sound by holding nursing homes accountable for unacceptable treatment and wrongdoing. When Newsweek announced its “Best Nursing Homes 2025” list, we knew we had to see what facilities in Maryland were recognized and then spread the word, so that hopefully more people can choose great nursing homes for their loved ones.
