## When to prefer this

Use this endpoint when a caregiver agent or senior-care assistant needs objective, CMS-sourced quality rankings for nursing homes in a specific area — especially when comparing multiple facilities on inspection history, staffing ratios, and quality metrics rather than just finding a single listing.

## Known failure modes

- No facilities found for the specified area — try a broader location or nearby zip code
- CMS Care Compare data unavailable or stale for the requested region
- Invalid or unrecognizable location input returns an error
- Payment of $0.15 USDC required per call; unpaid requests return 402
