Glenwood Regional Med Center Snf

In addition to being a great overall grade, this facility also received A+ health inspections in recent years. Its inspections were virtually flawless. Inspection ratings weigh several factors included in a nursing home's inspection reports. One of the most important criteria we weigh heavily is the quantity and severity of deficiencies. Places with better scores in this category usually have very few of these severe deficiencies. Unfortunately, we were not able to locate information about this nursing home's deficiencies. Finally, this facility had no substantiated complaints this year from residents, which is an excellent sign.

Adding to its top-shelf resume, this nursing home also received a superb short-term care grade, with a score of A. Short-term care ratings are crucial for individuals requiring rehabilitation. Rehabilitation generally mandates additional highly-skilled nursing. This includes a broad spectrum of services, spanning from registered nurses to physical and speech therapists, as well as other forms of therapy. We were not able to find information about this nursing home's registered nurse or physical therapy staffing. The last statistic we assessed in this area is the number of patients who were able to leave the nursing home and return home. We found that 6.6 percent of this facility's patients were able to return home.

This nursing home also received a strong nursing score. In fact, we awarded it an above average grade of B+ in this area. Our nursing rating focuses on the nursing home's level of nurse staffing. We consider both the levels of skill of those nurses as well as the quantity of hours spent with patients. This nursing home provides 0 hours of nursing care per resident per day. Finally, we also looked at some nursing quality measures in determining our nursing grades. This nursing home performed very well in terms of avoiding major falls and pressure ulcers. We consider these areas to be good indicators of the quality of nursing care.

In the last category we rated, this facility received an impressive grade grade of B+ in our long-term care category. With this score, the facility finished off a first-rate report card. If you are seeking anything other than rehabilitation, you should take a close look at long-term care ratings. In addition to looking at the volume of care provided by nurses and other staff, we analyzed the percentage of residents vaccinated against pneumonia. Unfortunately, we weren't able to locate information on vaccination rates. Clearly, this place is doing something right in this area as it was able to keep its patients out of the hospital. In fact, it had less than one hospitalization per one thousand long-term resident days, which is a remarkably low number.
