Facility Inspections

Inspection grades weigh several factors, including deficiencies, substantiated complaints and federal fines.

Without having access to deficiency data for this facility, it is difficult to really evaluate it in this category.
Short-term Care Quality
Among its many dominant grades, this nursing home was given a top-shelf short-term care score. In fact, we gave it a grade of A in that category. Our short-term care grade is commonly used to assess a facility's performance with rehabilitation. To have good rehabilitation services, facilities generally must feature better levels of skilled nursing. These types of services include registered nurses, physical therapists, occupational therapists and other types of therapists. When we assessed this facility's nursing hours, we found it offered more care from registered nurses than most nursing homes. The final metric we assessed in this category is the number of patients that ultimately were able to return home from the facility. This place fared as well as just about any facility in Ohio with 62.3 percent of its patients returning home. Unfortunately, at most facilities, fewer than half of their short-term residents ever return home.
Nurse Quality
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 is primarily based on a nursing home's level of nurse staffing. This nursing home provided 4.7 hours of nursing care per patient per day. This was one of the highest figures we found. In addition, we found that a significant portion of this care was provided by registered nurses, which are highly skilled nurses. These are both really impressive figures. On top of providing high levels of nursing care, this place also excelled in several of the quality-based metrics we assessed. With less than 5 percent of its residents suffering from pressure ulcers, it performed as well as any nursing home Ohio in this category.
Long-term Care Quality
The final area we analyzed is long-term care. We awarded this facility one of our higher scores in this area, with a B. Even though this is not as dominant as several of its other grades, it is still a positive grade. Nursing homes that excel in long-term care typically provide residents with closer supervision and stay on top of routine healthcare services. After looking at the significant amount of nursing care provided by this nursing home, we then analyzed the facility's vaccination statistics. This facility vaccinated 100 percent of its residents for pneumonia, which is much higher than the average nursing home. This combination proved to be successful as this facility also excelled at keeping its patients out of the hospital. It had only 0.61 hospitalizations per one thousand long-term resident days, which is an impressively low figure.
