Anadarko Nursing & Rehab

While we were not high on this place overall, we awarded it a B+ for our inspections category. This score is much better than the facility's overall grade. Our inspection ratings are based on many items located in the a nursing home's recent inspection reports. Deficiencies are an important item to look for on these reports. Most importantly, you should avoid nursing homes with severe deficiencies associated with risks to resident well being. This particular nursing home received 4 deficiencies on its inspection report. Overall, this is still a solid inspection report, but we'd always recommend looking into any deficiencies you find troubling.

We also want to point out that this facility received a decent grade in our nursing category. We awarded it a grade of C in the area. Our nursing grade is largely tied to a facility's level of nurse staffing. This facility provided just 0.3 hours of nursing care per resident per day. This is a relatively low total compared to most other facilities. Lastly, we also assessed some nursing quality-based metrics. While this place got docked a bit for its nursing hours per resident, it excelled in some of these quality measures. With fewer than five percent of its residents experiencing pressure ulcers, it did remarkably well in this statistic. This can be a good indicator of quality nursing care. Pressure ulcers can many times be avoided by offering better nursing care, such as by employing a policy of turning patients at least once a day.

This facilities third most favorable category is long-term care. We gave it a C in this area. This is essentially a slightly below average score in this category. Our long-term care ratings are important for people seeking non-healthcare services such as personal care. One of the criteria we considered in addition to nursing hours was vaccines. Fortunately, this facility administered the pneumonia vaccination to 94.88189 percent of its residents. This nursing home keeps its patients out of the hospital. It had only 0.01 hospitalizations per 1,000 long-term resident days, which is an impressively low number.

This nursing home's worst area is short-term care, which is the last category we scored. For this area, we awarded this nursing home a D. Our short-term care ratings are meaningful for people seeking rehabilitation. Rehabilitation usually requires additional highly-skilled nursing. This means a broad range of services, spanning from registered nurses to physical and respiratory therapists, as well as other types of therapy. Based on its poor rating in this category, we weren't surprised to discover that this place provided far fewer physical therapist and registered nurse hours per patient than most facilities. The final statistic we assessed in this area is the percentage of patients who who were able to eventually return home from the nursing home. This facility struggled quite a bit in this area as well, with just 0 percent of its patients returning home.
