The 2014 Best Nursing Homes ratings highlight the top nursing homes in each city and state out of nearly 16,000 facilities nationwide. U.S. News' goal is to help the millions of Americans who will spend time in a nursing home in 2014 find a home with a strong track record of good care.

"St. Luke's Surrey Place is honored to achieve the Best Nursing Home designation," said Robyn Tweedy, St. Luke's Surrey Place executive director. "This is a reflection of the outstanding dedication of our staff members. They are committed to providing the best care possible for all of our residents."

U.S. News' Best Nursing Homes ratings draw on data from the federal Centers for Medicare & Medicaid Services that assigns a rating of one to five stars for health inspections, level of nurse staffing and quality of care and gives each nursing home an overall star rating.
