Genesys Short-Term Rehabilitation Center

One of the many reasons this turned out to be a quality nursing home is that it earned an impressive grade in inspections. In fact, inspections turned out to be its best category. In this area, we awarded this nursing home an A. We weigh several aspects of a nursing home's inspection report in calculating our inspection grades. One of those factors is health deficiencies. You should keep in mind that the severity of deficiencies is usually more important than the number of deficiencies, as some deficiencies are relatively minor. Amazingly, this was one of the few nursing homes in the country that had no deficiencies whatsoever on its inspection report. This is very impressive. Finally, this facility had no substantiated complaints this year from residents, which is an excellent sign.

Adding to its superb profile, this nursing home also performed well in our short-term care area. In fact, we gave it a grade of A in the category. Our short-term care grades are important for residents in need of rehabilitation. Rehabilitation generally requires additional skilled nursing. Skilled nursing means a broad spectrum of nursing services, spanning from registered nurses to physical and speech therapists, as well as other variations of therapy. We weren't able to track down information about this nursing home's registered nurse or physical therapy staffing. The final item we assessed in this area is the percentage of residents who were able to return home from the facility. We found that 6.2 percent of this nursing home's patients returned home as opposed to remaining at the nursing home on a permanent basis.

Adding to its profile, this facility also earned a grade of B+ for its nursing rating. This is a well above average score in this category. Our nursing grade analyzes the nursing home's nurse staffing levels. We look at both the levels of skill of those nurses and the amount of time spent with residents. This nursing home provides 0 hours of nursing care per resident per day. Finally, our nursing grades also factor in quality-based assessments, such as avoiding major falls. This nursing home performed well in this area. Avoiding major falls is typically a good indicator that a nursing home has reliable quality controls in place. Major falls can frequently be prevented if more nurses aids and better safety protocols are in place.

In the final category, we awarded this nursing home a grade of A for our long-term care grade. This completed a very favorable report card. Long-term care ratings in this range generally require both 24/7 care from nurses and aids, as well as quality routine healthcare services. Once we looked at the quantity of care provided by aids and other staff, we then analyzed the facility's vaccination data. Unfortunately, we weren't able to locate this place's vaccination data. Clearly, this place is doing something right in this area as it also excelled at keeping its residents out of the hospital. It had less than one hospitalization per 1,000 long-term resident days, which is an impressively low figure.
