Premier Estates of Oxford is a small nursing home in Oxford, Ohio. This facility received an overall grade of D based on the data we looked at. This place seems to have very little going for it. Lastly, this nursing home's ownership changed in the last year, so we will need to monitor it to confirm it is able to raise its standard of care going forward.

Facility Inspections
While we were not high on this facility's overall grade, it actually received a very impressive inspection report this year. In fact, it received an excellent inspection report this year. As a result, it earned one of our best scores in that category with an A. Inspection grades are tied to many datapoints located in the a nursing home's recent inspection reports. Deficiencies are an important thing to look for on these inspections. Most importantly, you should avoid facilities with severe deficiencies linked to endangerment of patients. While this place had a few deficiencies on its report, none of them were severe based on CMS' scale. A couple minor deficiencies are not the end of the world.
Nurse Quality
We awarded this facility a respectable grade in the area of nursing as well, with a grade of B-. There are quite a few factors within this area. Most of these datapoints reflect levels of nurse staffing. This nursing home provides 3.3 hours of nursing care per patient per day. This is a lower figure than we were hoping for. Lastly, although this place got docked a bit for nursing hours, it actually excelled in some of our quality measures. With fewer than five percent of its patients experiencing pressure ulcers, it performed remarkably well in this subcategory.
Long-term Care Quality
We awarded this nursing home just a D for our long-term care rating. This is not a very good score. Facilities that don't fare well in long-term care typically aren't as well-staffed and are lagging in some of the areas of routine healthcare services we assessed. In addition to looking at the amount of care provided by nurses and other staff, we also looked at the percentage of residents vaccinated for pneumonia. This nursing home gave the vaccine to 93.827156 percent of its patients. This is somewhat lower than we anticipated but still a reasonably acceptable figure. Surprisingly, this nursing home actually fared well at keeping its residents out of the hospital. It had only 0 hospitalizations per one thousand long-term resident days. This was its best score in this category.
Short-term Care Quality
The next category we analyzed is short-term care, which proved to be this facility's worst category. We awarded this nursing home a grade of D in that category. Short-term care ratings are critical for individuals seeking rehabilitation. Rehabilitation typically utilizes additional skilled nursing services. Skilled nursing includes a vast spectrum of services, spanning from registered nurses to physical and respiratory therapists, as well as other variations of therapy. With its grade in this area, we weren't surprised to find this nursing home offered far fewer physical therapist hours per patient than most other nursing homes. The last item we considered in this category is the number of residents that ultimately were able to return home from the nursing home. This nursing home struggled quite a bit in this area, with just 33 percent of its residents returning home. Unfortunately, this was well below the national average.
