Mccrea Manor Nsng and Rehab Center

Although this nursing home's overall grade was as bad as it gets, it performed pretty well in the area of inspections. In fact, we awarded it a B for that area, which is one of our better scores. We take several aspects of a facility's inspection report into consideration in computing these inspection ratings. One of those factors is health deficiencies. You should keep in mind that the severity of these deficiencies is arguably more important than the number of deficiencies, as some deficiencies can be quite insignificant. This particular nursing home had just a single deficiency on its inspection report and it was not one deemed to pose a threat to patient health or safety. In spite of this deficiency, this nursing home still received a relatively favorable inspection report.

Among this facility's several poor grades was its F in the category of long-term care. When facilities receive this type of grade in long-term care it is often a bad sign for patient care and it may indicate that the nursing home is not as well-staffed with nurses and aids. In addition to assessing the amount of care provided by aids and other staff, we also looked at the number of residents vaccinated against pneumonia. Frankly, we were a bit concerned this facility gave the vaccine to a relatively low 73.25581 percent of its residents. Surprisingly, this place was actually decent at keeping its residents out of the hospital. Indeed, it had just 0 hospitalizations per 1,000 long-term resident days. This is its best score in this category.

Additionally, we gave this nursing home a rock-bottom F in the area of short-term care. Our short-term care grade is generally used to judge a facility's performance with rehabilitation To offer highly graded rehabilitation services, nursing homes generally must offer higher levels of highly skilled nursing. These types of services include registered nurses, physical therapists, speech therapists and other highly skilled individuals. Not surprisingly, we discovered that this nursing home provides significantly less physical therapist and registered nurse hours per patient than the typical facility. Lastly, we considered the percentage of residents who were able to return to the community from this facility. This definitely was not a strength for this facility. We found that just 0 percent of this nursing home's patients returned home. At most facilities, around half of their patients are able to return home so this is well below average.

Moving on to the fourth area, this facility did not fare well here either. With a very poor grade of F in nursing, this is about as as uninspiring as it gets. When computing our nursing scores, we assess both nursing hours and the skill levels of those nurses. This nursing home provided just 0.3 hours of nursing care per patient daily. This is a very low total compared to most nursing homes. Lastly, we also looked at some nursing quality measures in calculating our nursing ratings. This facility performed well in the area of minimizing its residents' pressure ulcers and major falls.
