Carepoint Health - Bayonne Hospital Center Tcu

We also found that this facility excelled in our short-term care rating. We awarded them an impressive grade of A+ in this category. Our short-term care grades are presumably most meaningful for people requiring rehabilitation from their nursing home. Rehabilitation generally mandates more highly-skilled nursing services. This means not merely nursing services, but also physical and speech therapy, as well as other variations of therapy. This nursing home employs both physical therapists and registered nurses. Not all facilities employ these skilled professionals. The final statistic we assessed in this area is the number of residents who were able to leave the nursing home and return home. We discovered that 8.3 percent of this facility's patients returned home.

To complement its first-rate performance in other areas, we gave this nursing home a grade of A for its long-term care score. Long-term care scores in this range generally require both around the clock care from nurses and aids, as well as quality routine healthcare services. This nursing home really knocked it out of the park in this category.

Among its many impressive grades, this facility received an excellent nursing grade. In fact, we gave it a grade of A- in that category. The nursing rating is based on a handful of components, many of which are based on levels of nurse staffing. This facility provided 0.8 hours of nursing care per resident per day. Finally, we also assessed some nursing quality measures in determining our nursing grades. This place performed very well when it comes to minimizing its residents' major falls and pressure ulcers. We consider these areas to be good indicators of the quality of nursing care.

In addition, this facility also earned top notch government inspections in recent years. We awarded them one of our better scores in that category, with an impressive grade of B+. Arguably the most critical factor we look at in calculating our inspection grades is deficiencies. Deficiencies are found on a facility's recent inspection reports. Nursing homes with better scores in this category typically dodged the more severe deficiencies involving health risks or even death. Unfortunately, it does not look like we were able to find information about this nursing home's deficiencies. Finally, this facility had no substantiated complaints this year from residents, which is an excellent sign.
