Facility Inspections

Grade: A-plus

While we were not high on this nursing home overall, we awarded it an A+ for our inspections rating. This score is far more impressive than the facility's overall grade. We take several aspects of a facility's inspection report into consideration in determining these inspection ratings. One critical factor is deficiencies. You should keep in mind that the severity of deficiencies is usually more important than the quantity of deficiencies, as some of these are quite minor. While this place had a few minor dings on its report, it had zero severe deficiencies. Severe deficiencies are those labeled as categories G, H, I, J, K and L. This tells you the government inspectors didn't consider any of the deficiencies on this facility's report to pose an imminent threat to patient health or safety. A couple minor deficiencies are not the end of the world.

Long-term Care Quality

Grade: C

One of this facility's more favorable category scores came in the area of long-term care. This wound up being its second most favorable category. In that area, we awarded this facility a C. In a long-term care setting, the nursing home's primary objective is to keep patients as healthy and safe as possible. This is different than skilled nursing or short-term care where the goal is to rehabilitate patients. After considering the volume of care provided by nurses, we turned to the facility's vaccination records. We were pleased to learn that this nursing home vaccinates 96.74419 percent of its residents against pneumonia. Lastly, this facility was also able to limit hospitalizations. In fact, it had less than one hospitalization per 1,000 long-term resident days, which is a remarkably low figure.

Short-term Care Quality

Grade: D

Sadly, this nursing home's next best category was short-term care. Nevertheless, with a D in this area, it still performed relatively badly. In crafting these short-term care scores, we analyze the facility's skilled nursing services, such as those performed by registered nurses, speech therapists, physical therapists and other types of therapists. Our objective is to devise a barometer for sizing up the rehabilitation services of various facilities. Based on its grade in this area, we weren't stunned to learn that this nursing home was well below average in terms of the number of physical therapy and registered nurse hours provided to its residents based on the metrics we looked at. Honestly, this was what we expected here. Lastly, we looked at the percentage of patients who eventually returned home from this nursing home. This facility didn't fare well here either. In fact, we found that just 0 percent of this facility's residents were able to return home.

Nurse Quality

Grade: F

The last area we analyzed was nursing. Sadly, it received an F in this area, which is a bottom of the barrel score. Nursing ratings are heavily correlated with quality and quantity of nursing care. This nursing home provides 0.3 hours of nursing care per resident per day. This is a much lower figure than we are used to seeing. Finally, we also looked at some nursing quality measures in computing our nursing grades. This place fared well when it comes to avoiding pressure ulcers and major falls. Many consider these data points to be reliable measures of the quality of nursing care.

Focused Care at Huntsville Quality Metrics

Minimizes Pressure Ulcers

Grade: B-minus

In Focused Care at Huntsville, 7.17% of Patients had Pressure Ulcers

This tells you the percent of patients that suffered from a pressure ulcer. Pressure ulcers are considered by many in the nursing home industry to be a measure of nursing care at a nursing home. Pressure ulcers, which are also referred to as bed sores, are often caused by residents not being moved frequently enough.

Minimizes Serious Falls

Grade: F

In Focused Care at Huntsville, 3.38% of Patients had Serious Falls

This figure is a measure of the percent of long-term care patients who had falls which resulted in severe injury. Falls can arise for a variety of reasons, but high rates of falls resulting in injuries could be a sign of lower quality nursing care.

Grade: A-minus

In Focused Care at Huntsville, 1.52% of Patients had UTIs

This figure indicates the percent of long-term care patients which suffered from urinary tract infections.

In Focused Care at Huntsville, 10.14% of Patients use Anti-Psychotic Medication

In Focused Care at Huntsville, 11.91 Percentage of Patients

This is a measure of the number of emergency room visits per 1,000 days of short-term patient care.

Short-term Care: Facilitates Functional Improvement

Grade: F

In Focused Care at Huntsville, 66.29% Percentage of Resident
