Bailey Park Clc

Although we gave this facility a terrible overall grade, we awarded it a grade of C for our nursing rating. There are a host of subcategories included in this grade. Most of the criteria reflect the quantity of nurse staffing. This facility provides 0.4 hours of nursing care per patient on a daily basis. This is a lower figure than we were hoping for. Lastly, although this place got docked a bit for its nursing hours per resident, it excelled in a few of our quality metrics. With less than five percent of its patients suffering from pressure ulcers, it did very well in this metric.

We gave this nursing home just a D for our short-term care grade and that actually wound up as its second highest category. Our short-term care grades are arguably most critical for those needing rehabilitation services. Rehabilitation generally requires higher levels of skilled nursing services. Skilled nursing includes not merely nursing services, but also physical and occupational therapy, as well as other types of therapy. Based on its grade in this area, we were not surprised to learn that this nursing home was well below average in terms of its quantity of physical therapy and registered nurse hours offered to its patients based on the measures we assessed. Lastly, we assessed the number of patients that were able to return home from this nursing home. This facility didn't fare well here either. In fact, we found that just 4.9 percent of this facility's patients were able to return home. This figure was well off the national average.

As it turns out, this facility only earned a D for its long-term care score, which is not a score to write home about. Long-term care grades of this caliber generally are a bad sign for the quantity and quality of care provided by nurses and aids, as well as the levels of routine medical care available. On top of considering the volume of care provided by nurses aids and other staff, we looked at the percentage of residents vaccinated against pneumonia. This nursing home gave the vaccine to 35.766422 percent of its residents. This is quite a bit less than the national average. Surprisingly, this nursing home was actually able to limit hospitalizations. With just 0 hospitalizations per 1,000 long-term resident days, this facility has fewer hospitalizations than most nursing homes. This is its best score in this category.

Moving on our last area of inspections, this nursing home received an F here. With nursing homes that received this poor of an inspection score, we would scrutinize any severe deficiencies on its inspection report. This particular facility was hit with 4 deficiencies by CMS. The only positive thing we can say is that none of the deficiencies were in the categories that indicate they posed a threat to resident safety or health. Finally, we also would like to draw your attention to the fact that this place received large government fines recently amounting to more than $100,000. This often suggests that a nursing home's poor track record spanned several years.
