Lakeland Manor

In addition to receiving a great overall grade, this facility also received an A+ long-term care grade. If you are looking for services other than rehabilitation, you should take a close look at long-term care ratings. Once we assessed the amount of care provided by nurses, we then analyzed the nursing home's vaccination data. This nursing home vaccinated 88.69565 percent of its patients against pneumonia. Clearly, this place is doing something right in this area as it also excelled at keeping its residents out of the hospital. Indeed, it had only 0.03 hospitalizations per one thousand long-term resident days, which is a remarkably low figure.

This facility also earned an A+ inspection score, making it one of the few facilities to receive multiple A+'s in our category grades. This is based on the facility's inspections. Our inspection grades are tied to pieces of information located in the a nursing home's inspections. Nursing homes that score well in this category tend to have very few deficiencies on their reports. Most importantly, these facilities should not have any severe deficiencies which are associated with endangerment of patients. Fortunately, although this place had some minor dings on its inspection report, it had zero severe deficiencies. Severe deficiencies are ones found in categories G through L. This means that CMS did not consider any of the deficiencies on this facility's report to pose an imminent threat to patient health or safety. Finally, this facility had no substantiated complaints this year from residents, which is an excellent sign.

The next highest grade we gave this nursing home came in the category of nursing, where we gave it a grade of C. This wasn't quite as good as some of its other scores, but a grade in this range is not the end of the world. Our nursing rating consists of several subcategories, but the paramount one is the level of nurse hours spent with patients. This nursing home provides 0.4 hours of nursing care per patient per day. This is a much lower figure than we were hoping for. Lastly, despite not having the highest total nursing hours per resident, this place actually performed admirably in the metric of preventing major falls. This is usually a good indicator that a place has quality controls in place.

The last area we assessed proved to be this nursing home's weakest area. However, even in its worst category we still awarded it a respectable grade of C for our short-term care category. In the area of short-term care, we strive to evaluate measures of a facility's rehabilitation. We assess a facility's skilled nursing services, such as the ones performed by registered nurses and various therapists. Unfortunately, it doesn't appear that this facility submitted registered nurse or physical therapist staffing data. The last measure we looked at in this area is the percentage of residents that returned home from the facility. We found that just 0 percent of this facility's patients returned home.
