Jackson Manor Nursing Home is one of just a few facilities located in Jackson, Missouri. Featuring an overall grade of B-, this is likely a middle of the road facility. Based on our analysis, there are certainly much worse nursing homes out there. This nursing home was better in some categories than others, but it did not have any weak links in any of the four major categories. More information about these categories can be found below.

In addition to being a respectable facility overall, this place really excelled in the area of inspections, where it received an A. Few facilities performed better in this category. Inspection grades account for a host of factors found on a facility's inspection report. One key criteria we rely on is the quantity and severity of deficiencies. Facilities with better grades in this category tend to have very few severe deficiencies. This facility was hit with 3 deficiencies on its inspection report, but none of the deficiencies were considered to be major deficiencies. This tells you that the inspectors did not deem any of these deficiencies to cause an immediate threat to resident health or safety. A couple relatively minor deficiencies aren't the end of the world.

This facility was given its second highest category grade in the category of short-term care. We awarded this facility a B- in this area, which is a respectable grade. In our short-term care score, we attempt to forge a sound gauge for rehabilitation services. In this process, we assess a facility's scope of skilled nursing services, including both registered nurses and physical therapy, as well as occupational therapy. One of this nursing home's strengths is registered nurse hours. We found that it offers more care from registered nurses to its residents than most facilities. The last metric we considered in this area is the number of residents who were able to leave the facility and return to the community. We discovered that just 41.5 percent of this facility's residents returned home, which is actually below average.

This nursing home's nursing grade appears to be one of its better features. The facility received a grade of C in this category. Our nursing grade assesses the nursing home's level of nurse staffing. We weigh both the levels of licensure of the nurses as well as the amount of time spent with patients. This place provides only 3.2 hours of nursing care per patient per day. This is a somewhat concerning figure which is well below average. Finally, we look at quality-based metrics, such as the percent of residents who sustained pressure ulcers and major falls. Sometimes these statistics are decent measures of the quality of nursing care.

The next category we assessed is long-term care. We gave this nursing home a grade of C in this area. In calculating these long-term care grades, we assess the facility's personal care services. On top of looking at the amount of care provided by nurses aids and other staff, we analyzed the percentage of residents vaccinated for pneumonia. We found that this nursing home administered the vaccine to a relatively low 65.315315 percent of its patients, which is somewhat concerning. Finally, we looked at the facility's number of hospitalizations. Here we found that this facility had 2.36 hospitalizations per one thousand long-term resident days. While this figure is quite a bit higher than the national average, this number may be skewed for some nursing homes due to the medical complexity of patients.
