Mercyhealth Javon Bea Hospital -Snf

In addition to being an elite nursing home overall, this facility also performed well in the area of inspections, where it received a grade of A+. Very few nursing homes performed as well in this category. Inspection ratings weigh several factors, including deficiencies, substantiated complaints and federal fines. You can learn more about each of these factors by obtaining copies of nursing homes' inspection reports. It doesn't appear that we have deficiency data for this nursing home. Finally, this facility had no substantiated complaints this year from residents, which is an excellent sign.

This facility also received a very impressive short-term care grade. Indeed, this is its second most impressive category score. In that area, this facility received a grade of A. Our short-term care grades are presumably more critical for those requiring rehabilitation services. Rehabilitation typically requires more highly-skilled nursing. Skilled nursing includes not only nursing, but also physical and occupational therapy, as well as other forms of therapy. We were not able to locate information about this nursing home's registered nurse or physical therapy staffing. The last statistic we assessed in this category is the number of patients who were able to leave the facility and return home. We discovered that 6.1 percent of this facility's residents were able to return home.

This facility also fared very well in the category of long-term care, where we awarded it a grade of A-. Very few nursing homes received a better grade in this area. Facilities that receive this type of grade in long-term care typically provide consistent 24/7 care to make sure residents are kept in good health. After considering the quantity of care provided by aids and other staff, we next considered the nursing home's vaccination records. We were not able to track down this place's vaccination data. Clearly, this place is doing something right in this area as it was able to keep its patients out of the hospital. In fact, it had less than one hospitalization per 1,000 long-term resident days, which is an impressively low figure.

Switching gears to our fourth area, this nursing home received an extremely favorable nursing grade. In fact, we gave it a B+ in this category, topping off one of our better report cards. In determining our nursing scores, we weigh both nursing hours and the skill levels of the nurses. This nursing home averages 0 hours of nursing care per resident per day. Lastly, we also assessed certain nursing quality-based metrics in computing our nursing grades. These include minimizing residents' pressure ulcers and major falls. We view these statistics as good indicators of the caliber of nursing care offered, since better care tends to reduce these problems.
