About Granite Creek Health & Rehabilitation Center

Granite Creek Health & Rehabilitation Center is a Medicare- and Medicaid-certified skilled nursing facility in Prescott, Arizona, operating under CMS Certification Number (CCN) 035131. 128-bed facility. For Profit - Partnership. Part of the The Ensign Group chain. The facility is required to comply with the Requirements for Long-Term Care Facilities at 42 CFR Part 483.

Granite Creek Health & Rehabilitation Center has held its Medicare/Medicaid certification for approximately 39 years (certification date on file: 1986-07-31). Long-tenured facilities (15+ years) often have established F-tag remediation playbooks and a deeper standard-survey trail; newly-certified facilities (under 3 years) are subject to a different initial survey cadence under 42 CFR 488.308.

Local market context (Yavapai County): Granite Creek Health & Rehabilitation Center operates in Yavapai County alongside 6 other Medicare-certified SNFs in our Arizona cohort sample. Multi-facility counties create direct cohort comparison pressure — hospital discharge planners typically run side-by-side Care Compare lookups before placement decisions.

CMS Five-Star Quality Ratings

CMS publishes Five-Star ratings for nursing homes monthly, drawn from the most recent three years of standard surveys, complaint surveys, and Minimum Data Set (MDS) submissions.

Long-Stay vs Short-Stay Quality Measures

Long-Stay Quality Measure rating: ★★★★★ (5 of 5). Long-stay measures cover residents in the facility 100+ days and include indicators like residents experiencing one or more falls with major injury, residents whose ability to move independently worsened, and residents with a urinary tract infection.

Short-Stay Quality Measure rating: ★★★★☆ (4 of 5). Short-stay measures cover post-acute residents discharged within 100 days and include rehospitalization within 30 days, successful return to community, and improvement in function.

Differentiating long-stay from short-stay QMs matters for placement decisions — a facility with strong short-stay QMs may still underperform on long-stay metrics, and vice versa.

Compliance Red Flags

Granite Creek Health & Rehabilitation Center has none of the four CMS-published red-flag indicators active at the most recent publish: not on the Special Focus Facility list, no Abuse Icon on Care Compare, no overdue inspection flag, and no recent change-of-ownership flag. Absence of these flags does not mean the facility is deficiency-free — see the survey history below.

Survey History and Deficiencies

Recent health deficiencies cited at last standard survey: 4. National average for facilities of this size is approximately 8 deficiencies per cycle. Granite Creek Health & Rehabilitation Center has no CMS fines in its most recent reporting cycle. Last documented standard health survey: 2026-01-07. CMS conducts standard surveys at most every 15 months for SNFs, with substandard-quality findings triggering more frequent revisits.

Infection Control and Deficiency Weighting

CMS health survey weighted score: 51. The weighted score multiplies deficiency severity (A-L) by scope (isolated, pattern, widespread); higher weighted scores translate directly into the Health Inspection star rating tier breakpoints CMS publishes monthly.

Staffing Detail

Detailed staffing hours-per-resident-day data is not currently published for Granite Creek Health & Rehabilitation Center in CMS Provider Data. The CMS Minimum Staffing Standards rule (89 FR 40876, May 2024) phases in a 3.48 total HPRD floor for non-rural facilities by May 2027 (rural facilities by May 2029), absent a hardship exemption under 42 CFR 483.35.

Chain Context and Facility Type

Granite Creek Health & Rehabilitation Center is operated as part of The Ensign Group, a chain operating 334 Medicare-certified facilities (CMS chain identifier 507). Chain-operated facilities tend to share corporate compliance staff, standard operating procedures, and survey-prep resources — but also share enforcement exposure when CMS designates a chain-wide issue under the system-wide quality assurance framework.

Provider type designation: Medicare And Medicaid.

The facility is classified by CMS as urban (within a metropolitan statistical area). Urban SNFs typically face higher acuity post-acute admissions, more competitive labor markets, and stricter local-jurisdiction infection control requirements layered on top of federal CoPs.

How Granite Creek Health & Rehabilitation Center Compares to Peers in Arizona

Peer comparisons use a same-state cohort of 140 Medicare-certified SNFs, pulled live from CMS Provider Data. The cohort excludes terminated and surrendered certifications.
