Greenville Nursing & Rehab

With an address in Greenville, Illinois, Greenville Nursing & Rehab is the sole facility we were able to find in this city. With an overall grade of F, we consider this to be a very poor nursing home. At the end of the day, you'd be better off to avoid of this place. This place's only redeeming quality is its inspection score, which we provide more information about below.

While we graded this facility incredibly poorly overall, it earned an impressive government inspection report this year. As a result, it received one of our best grades in that category with an A-. These inspection scores take several factors into consideration, including deficiencies, substantiated complaints and federal fines. You can learn more about each of these items by obtaining copies of nursing homes' inspection reports. This nursing home received 5 deficiencies on its inspection report, but fortunately none were considered severe. This tells you that the inspectors did not deem any of these deficiencies to pose an imminent risk to patient safety or health. A couple minor deficiencies aren't the end of the world.

We awarded this facility just a D for our short-term care grade and that actually turned out to be its next most favorable category. In calculating these short-term care scores, we look at the facility's skilled nursing services, such as those performed by registered nurses, speech therapists, physical therapists and other types of therapists. The goal is to formulate a measure for comparing the rehabilitation services of nursing homes. As you might expect, we learned that this place provides far less physical therapist and registered nurse hours per resident than the average facility. Lastly, we assessed the number of patients who were able to return to the community from this facility. We found that just 43.1 percent of this nursing home's residents returned home.

The third area we looked at was long-term care. This facility's was given an unfortunate long-term care score where it received an F. For patients seeking a permanent place to live as opposed to skilled nursing, long-term care is an important category. Once we finished looking at the quantity of care provided by nurses, we turned to the facility's vaccination records. We were optimistic to find that this facility vaccinates 100 percent of its residents for pneumonia. We were far less impressed with its hospitalization rate. We found that this place had 3.2 hospitalizations per one thousand long-term resident days, which is nearly double the national average.

The final category we graded was nursing. This facility was given a bottom of the barrel grade of F in this area. Our nursing rating looks at the facility's nurse staffing levels. We factor in both the levels of training of the nurses and the quantity of hours spent with residents. This facility averaged a meager 2.9 hours of nursing care per patient per day. This is an alarmingly low total. This nursing home also had terrible scores in some of the quality-based metrics to pair with its weak nursing hours. For starters, we looked at the percent of patients experiencing pressure ulcers. This nursing home was at more than double the national average in this metric.
