Facility Inspections
One of the many reasons this place turned out to be a great nursing home is it received an A+ in our inspections category. This is simply as good as it gets in this critical category. Inspection grades take several factors into consideration, including deficiencies and substantiated complaints. You can learn more about each of these issues by obtaining copies of nursing homes' inspection reports. Fortunately, although this nursing home had some minor dings on its government inspection report, it had zero severe deficiencies. Severe deficiencies are ones found in categories G through L. This tells you that CMS did not deem any of the deficiencies on this facility's report to pose an imminent threat to patient safety or health. Finally, this facility had no substantiated complaints this year from residents, which is an excellent sign.
Short-term Care Quality
This exemplary nursing home also was superb in the category of short-term care, where we gave it a score of A+. Only a small group of nursing homes performed better in this category. In calculating our short-term care grades, we look at a facility's levels of skilled nursing services, which includes registered nurses, physical therapists speech therapists and other types of therapists. This rating is considered to be a useful assessment of the facility's rehabilitation. This facility is markedly above average in terms of its quantity of both registered nurse and physical therapy hours offered to its patients. The facility provided about 1.5 times as much care per resident from both of these groups of skilled professionals than a typical facility provided. The last measure we looked at in this category is the percentage of patients who were able to leave the nursing home and return to the community. We found that it fared as well as just about any nursing home in Ohio in this area with 68.3 percent of its residents returning home. Unfortunately, at most nursing homes, fewer than half of their short-stay residents are able to return home.
Nurse Quality
We also wanted to emphasize the fact that this facility received an impressive grade of A- in our nursing category. There are a number of datapoints included in this grade. Most of the criteria are tied to nurse staffing. This facility boasts a really impressive 4.1 hours of nursing care per patient on a daily basis, of which a significant portion was provided by registered nurses. This is one of the most highly highly trained levels of nurses. This is one of the higher totals of nursing hours we found at any facility. On top of offering high levels of care, this nursing home also performed well in several of the quality measures we assessed. By way of illustration, in terms of the percentage of its patients suffering falls leading to serious injury, this place performed as well as any nursing home the nation. Avoiding major falls is generally an indicator that a nursing home has reliable quality controls in place. Major falls can many times be prevented if more nurses aids and better safety protocols are in place.
Long-term Care Quality
In the final category we graded, this facility was given a very favorable grade of B+ in our long-term care category. With this grade, the nursing home completed a very strong profile. When facilities receive this kind of score in this category it is usually a good sign for resident care and suggests that the facility is well-staffed with nurses and aids. After assessing the significant amount of nursing care provided by this nursing home, we turned to the nursing home's vaccination data. This nursing home vaccinated 99.63768 percent of its patients against pneumonia, which is far higher than the average nursing home. This combination proved to be successful as this nursing home keeps its residents out of the hospital. It had just 1.27 hospitalizations per 1,000 long-term resident days, which is a substantially better hospitalization rate than the majority of nursing homes.
