Arbors at Milford is an average-sized facility located in Milford, Ohio. With a abysmal overall grade of F, this nursing home isn't high on our list.

Facility Inspections
While this facility's overall grade was as bad as it gets, it actually didn't perform terribly in the area of inspections. In fact, we awarded it a grade of C for that category, which is one of our better scores. These inspection scores take several factors into consideration, including deficiencies and federal fines. You can learn more about each of these factors by reviewing copies of nursing homes' inspection reports. This place was assessed 9 deficiencies on its inspection report, but none were category G through L deficiencies. This means CMS didn't deem any of the deficiencies to be an imminent threat to resident health or safety. Unfortunately, we also need to draw your attention to the fact that this facility received some government fines in recent years.
Nurse Quality
We were also surprised to find that this facility received a decent nursing grade this year. We gave it a grade of C in that category. Nursing scores are largely tied to a facility's nurse staffing. This place provides 4.4 hours of nursing care per resident daily. This is better than average. In determining our nursing grades, we add additional weight to hours performed by more highly trained nurses such as registered nurses. Lastly, we also weighed some quality-based assessments. This nursing home scored well in some of the quality measures we looked at. In terms of the percentage of its residents suffering from pressure ulcers, this place beat the national average.
Long-term Care Quality
As it turns out, this facility only received a D for its long-term care score, which is not an impressive grade. When nursing homes receive a grade in this range in long-term care it generally means the facility did not perform well in our measures relating to patient care. This nursing home's vaccination statistics weren't as favorable some of its other statistics in this category, such as its nursing hours data. This nursing home provided the pneumonia vaccine to just 88.99371 percent of its patients. We would like to see some improvement herein this statistic in the future. Lastly, we looked at the nursing home's number of hospitalizations. Here we found that this place fared poorly with 3.09 hospitalizations per 1,000 long-term resident days. Sadly, this statistic is nearly twice the national average.
Short-term Care Quality
The next category we analyzed is short-term care, which turned out to be this nursing home's worst category. We gave this facility a grade of D in that area. In determining our short-term care scores, we assess a nursing home's levels of skilled nursing services, which includes registered nurses, physical therapists occupational therapists and other highly trained professionals. This grade is considered to be a meaningful assessment of a facility's rehabilitation. In this place's case, it looks like it offers fewer registered nurse and physical therapist hours per patient than the average facility. Finally, we considered the percentage of patients who were able to return to the community from this nursing home. This definitely wasn't a strength for this nursing home. We found that just 37.1 percent of this facility's residents returned home. At most nursing homes, about half of their residents are able to return home so this is well below average.
