Star ratings can change. Confirm the latest CMS Care Compare results before you hire an agency. A name and address on this page is not a recommendation, a ranking of every provider in the city, or an endorsement by the agency.

What CMS Care Compare star ratings mean

CMS Care Compare star ratings summarize selected quality-of-patient-care measures for Medicare-certified home health agencies so families can compare providers at a glance. A higher star rating means stronger reported performance on those CMS measures, not a guarantee of a specific outcome for one patient. An agency with no published star rating is still listed on Care Compare. It simply does not have a Quality of Patient Care star score in the data used for this page, so you should judge that provider by a direct conversation about staffing, training, and services.

Questions to ask about dementia-specific training

Ask every Milwaukee home health agency whether nurses and aides receive dementia-specific training, how often that training is updated, and how the team supports communication, safety, and daily routines for people living with Alzheimer's disease or other dementias. Alzheimer's disease is the most common type of dementia, and families can review plain-language background from the CDC overview of Alzheimer's disease and dementia.

Helpful questions include:

• What dementia-specific training do your clinicians and home health aides complete before they are assigned to a client?
• How do you match caregivers to someone who has memory loss, confusion, or changes in behavior?
• How do you support safety around wandering risk, missed medications, and resistance to bathing or dressing?
• Will the same caregivers visit whenever possible so the person sees familiar faces?
• How do you coordinate with family and with any memory care at home support already in place?

These questions help you compare training and staffing. They are not a diagnosis tool, and this page does not provide medical treatment advice. For official national facts on Alzheimer's disease, see the CDC NCHS FastStats page on Alzheimer's disease.

Home health compared with other in-home support in Milwaukee

Home health agencies on CMS Care Compare typically provide skilled nursing and therapy under a physician plan of care, which is different from non-medical help such as personal care or companion care. Some Milwaukee families use both: a Medicare home health episode for skilled visits, plus longer-term help at home with bathing, meals, and companionship. Ask each agency which of those roles it actually fills so you do not assume a skilled home health provider will also supply round-the-clock non-medical support.

Frequently Asked Questions

Which home health agencies in Milwaukee have the highest CMS star ratings on this list?
On this CMS Care Compare listing, Aurora at Home (11333 W National Ave) and Ascension at Home (135 S. 84th St., Suite 150) each have a 4.5-star Quality of Patient Care rating. Horizon Home Care and Hospice (11002 West Park Place) has a 4-star rating.

Does a higher CMS star rating mean an agency is best for dementia care?
No. The star rating summarizes selected CMS quality measures. It does not by itself confirm dementia-specific training, caregiver matching, or how staff handle memory loss at home. Ask each Milwaukee agency those questions directly.

Why do some Milwaukee agencies show no star rating?
Laabs Home Health Care, Atlas Healthcare Inc., Trinity Home Health, and Personalized Plus Home Health Care do not have a Quality of Patient Care star rating in the data used here. You can still contact them using the Milwaukee addresses listed above and ask about training, staffing, and services.

What should I ask a Milwaukee home health agency about dementia-specific training?
Ask what dementia-specific training staff complete, how caregivers are matched to people with memory loss, how the team supports safety and daily routines, and whether the same aides can visit consistently. Do not treat the answers as a medical diagnosis or a treatment plan.

Are these agencies endorsing this website?
No. Names, ratings, and addresses are listed so families can compare local Medicare-certified home health agencies. A listing does not mean an agency, clinic, or clinician endorses this service.

Where can I read official information about Alzheimer's disease?
The CDC publishes an overview of Alzheimer's disease and dementia and FastStats on Alzheimer's disease. Those pages are educational. They are not a substitute for talking with a clinician about an individual situation.
