Manor at Perrysburg

To pair with its decent overall grade, we awarded this facility an A for its inspection grade. This is far more impressive than its overall grade. These inspection grades take several factors into consideration, including deficiencies and federal fines. You can learn more about each of these factors by obtaining copies of nursing homes' inspection reports. Fortunately, although this nursing home had some minor dings on its report, it had no severe deficiencies. Severe deficiencies are those found in categories G, H, I, J, K and L. This tells you that the inspectors did not deem any of the deficiencies on this facility's report to pose an imminent threat to patient safety or health. The fact that none of the deficiencies were severe leaves us less concerned with this inspection report.

One of the other reasons we rated this facility so highly is that it earned a very impressive nursing score. In that area, we awarded this nursing home a grade of B. The nursing grade weighs a handful of factors, but the main consideration is the quantity of nurse hours per patient per week. This nursing home provides 0.4 hours of nursing care per resident per day. Lastly, we also looked at some nursing quality measures in determining our nursing grades. This nursing home performed very well when it comes to avoiding pressure ulcers and major falls. We consider these areas to be good indicators of the quality of nursing care.

We also gave this nursing home a middle of the road score in the area of short-term care, where we awarded it a C. In our short-term care grade, we seek to craft a fair measure for rehabilitation. In this process, we look at a facility's offerings of highly-skilled nursing services, including both registered nurses and physical therapy, as well as occupational therapy. Fortunately, it appear that this facility employs registered nurses. Not every facility employs these skilled professionals. However, based on the data this nursing home provided, they do not appear to employ physical therapists. Lastly, we considered the number of patients who were able to return to the community from this nursing home. We found that 3.9 percent of this facility's patients returned home. At most facilities, closer to half of their residents are able to return home so this figure is below average.

Moving on to our next category, this nursing home received an acceptable long-term care score of C. Our long-term care grade is typically used to gauge a nursing home's performance as a traditional convalescent home, as opposed to focusing on the skilled nursing services provided by a rehabilitation facility. After we finished assessing the amount of nursing care, we next considered the facility's vaccination data. Candidly, we were a bit alarmed this facility vaccinated just 73.01587 percent of its residents against pneumonia. Nevertheless, this facility was able to keep its residents out of the hospital. It had only 0.03 hospitalizations per one thousand long-term resident days, which is an impressively low number.
