This grade isn't too far off the city grade for Muskogee, which is a B-. One of the major highlights of this facility's report card is its exemplary inspection reports, which is addressed in the next paragraph.

In addition to being a respectable facility overall, this place really excelled in the area of inspections, where it received a grade of A. Few facilities performed better in this area. We take several aspects of a facility's inspection report into consideration in calculating these inspection ratings. One critical factor is health deficiencies. You should keep in mind that the severity of deficiencies is usually more meaningful than the number of deficiencies, as some deficiencies can be quite minor. 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. Based on this, we had a generally positive view of this nursing home's inspections.

Another one of this facility's better category scores was in the category of long-term care. In that category, we awarded this nursing home a B+. Facilities that excel in this category typically are well-staffed and offer extensive hands on care to residents. In addition to looking at the volume of care provided by nurses aids and other staff, we also looked at the number of residents vaccinated against pneumonia. This facility provided the vaccine to 100 percent of its patients. Vaccines are vital to keeping patients out of the hospital. Finally, we looked at the facility's number of hospitalizations. We found that this nursing home had 2.4 hospitalizations per one thousand long-term resident days.

This facility's next best category grade came in the area of nursing. In that category, we gave this nursing home a grade of C. The nursing rating is based on quite a few components, most of which are associated with quantities of nurse staffing. This nursing home provides 3.5 hours of nursing care per resident per day. Finally, we also looked at some nursing quality measures and this nursing home excelled in some of these areas. With less than five percent of its patients sustaining pressure ulcers, it fared well in this subcategory. This is generally an indicator of quality nursing care. Pressure ulcers can typically be prevented by providing better nursing care, such as by employing a protocol of moving a resident more frequently.

Switching gears to our last category, this nursing home did not perform very well. With an abysmal grade of F in short-term care, this is this facility's worst category. Our short-term care grades are based on a nursing home's quantity of skilled skilled healthcare professionals. This includes a wide scope of services, spanning from registered nurses to physical and speech therapists, as well as other forms of therapy. With its grade in this area, we were not surprised to learn that this facility is well below average in terms of its quantity of registered nurse and physical therapy hours provided to its residents based on the data we assessed. Lastly, we assessed 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 38.9 percent of this facility's residents returned home. At most nursing homes, about half of their patients are able to return home so this is well below average.
