Facility Inspections

Although we did not rate this nursing home favorably overall, we want to point out its nearly flawless government inspections in recent years. We awarded them an A in this category. Our inspection grades weigh a host of factors found on a nursing home's inspection reports. One of the most important criteria we consider is the quantity and severity of deficiencies. You should avoid nursing homes with a list of deficiencies flagged. 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. In spite of this deficiency, this nursing home still received a relatively positive inspection report.

Nurse Quality

Turning to the area of nursing care, this facility received a grade of just D in this category. Unfortunately, this ended up being one of its better grades. Nursing grades are largely associated with a facility's level of nurse staffing. With a meager 0.3 hours of nursing care per resident on a daily basis, this facility's nurse staffing levels were quite a bit below the national average. Lastly, we also assessed some nursing quality-based metrics in determining our nursing scores. This place fared well in the area of avoiding pressure ulcers and major falls.

Does this page answer your questions about Crown Park Rehabilitation and Nursing Center?

Long-term Care Quality

We gave this facility just a D for our long-term care rating. This is not a score to write home about. Nursing homes that receive this type of score in this category likely don't provide the type of consistent 24/7 care that some other nursing homes offer. On top of looking at the quantity of care provided by nurses and other staff, we looked at the percentage of residents vaccinated for pneumonia. This facility vaccinated 75.60976 percent of its residents. This is significantly below the national average. Surprisingly, this nursing home was actually able to limit hospitalizations. With just 0.01 hospitalizations per 1,000 long-term resident days, this nursing home had fewer hospitalizations than the average nursing home. This was its best score in this category.

Short-term Care Quality

The final category we graded was short-term care, which proved to be this nursing home's weakest area. We awarded this facility a grade of D in that category. Short-term care ratings are important for individuals seeking rehabilitation. Rehabilitation generally utilizes additional highly-skilled nursing. This means a wide scope of nursing services, spanning from registered nurses to physical and occupational therapists, as well as other variations of therapy. With a grade of this caliber for this category, we were not surprised to discover that this place was below average in two of the key staffing metrics we looked at. The facility supplied far fewer registered nurse and physical therapist hours per patient than most facilities. The last datapoint we considered in this area is the percentage of patients that eventually returned home from the facility. This facility struggled quite a bit in this metric as well, with just 4.9 percent of its residents returning home.
