Long-term Care Quality
To pair with its strong overall grade, we awarded this nursing home a grade of A+ for its nursing grade. Facilities that do well in long-term care typically are well-staffed and offer extensive hands on care to residents. On top of very favorable nursing hour statistics, this nursing home's vaccination records is superb as well. Indeed, it vaccinated 98.24561 percent of its residents for pneumonia. The last datapoint we assessed was the facility's hospitalization rate. We found that this place had 2.21 hospitalizations per one thousand long-term resident days.
Facility Inspections
Adding to its impressive category grades, we gave this facility an A- for our inspections rating. Perhaps the most critical factor we look at in computing our inspection grades is deficiencies. Deficiencies are found on a facility's inspection reports. Facilities with better grades in this area typically avoided the more severe deficiencies involving things like patient abuse. This particular nursing home had just a single deficiency on its inspection report and it was not one deemed to pose a threat to patient health or safety. Finally, this facility had no substantiated complaints this year from residents, which is an excellent sign.
Short-term Care Quality
This nursing home also was given an impressive short-term care grade. In fact, we gave it an above average score of B+ in this category. Our short-term care ratings are believed to be more meaningful for residents needing rehabilitation services. Rehabilitation typically requires higher levels of skilled nursing services. This means not merely nursing, but also physical and occupational therapy, as well as other types of therapy. Fortunately, this nursing home offers both physical therapists and registered nurses. Not all facilities offer both. Finally, we considered the number of patients who were able to return to the community from this nursing home. This proved to be a real strength for this nursing home. We found that it outperformed the vast majority of nursing homes in the nation in this area with 63.2 percent of its patients returning home.
Nurse Quality
The next area we rated is this nursing home's poorest category. Nevertheless, even in its weakest link we still awarded it a decent grade of B- for nursing. In computing a facility's nursing grade, we consider the amount of time nurses commit to patients as well as the level of licensure of those nurses. This nursing home provides an impressive 4.4 hours of nursing care per resident per day. This is among the higher totals in Arkansas. Lastly, our nursing grades also factor in quality-based metrics, such as avoiding major falls. This nursing home performed admirably in this metric. Avoiding serious falls is often a good indicator that a facility has quality controls in place. Major falls can generally be prevented if more nurses and better safety protocols are in place.
