Robings Manor Rhc

While we were not high on this nursing home overall, we awarded it a B- for our inspections rating. This score is better than the facility's overall score. Our inspection grades weigh several factors found on a nursing home's inspection report. One of the most important criteria we rely on is the quantity and severity of deficiencies. Fortunately, although this place had some minor dings on its report, it had zero severe deficiencies. Severe deficiencies are those found in categories G, H, I, J, K and L. This means the inspectors did not deem any of the deficiencies on this facility's report to pose an imminent threat to patient safety or health. Finally, CMS flagged this nursing home for possible abuse or neglect. This is not what you want to see. We advise you to direct your search elsewhere.

We also want to point out that this facility received a decent grade in our nursing category. We awarded it a grade of B- in the area. The nursing rating consists of quite a few datapoints, most of which are based on levels of nurse staffing. This place provides 0.3 hours of nursing care per patient on a daily basis. This is a much lower figure than we were hoping for. Despite having low quantities of nursing care, this place surprisingly excelled in some of the quality measures we assessed. It scored well when it comes to avoiding pressure ulcers and major falls. We consider these areas to be good measures of the quality of nursing care. In many cases, the quality of nursing care is every bit as important as the quantity of hours of care offered.

This nursing home was given its third highest category grade in the category of short-term care. We gave this facility a grade of B- in this area, which is a decent score. Short-term care scores are meaningful for individuals in need of rehabilitation. Rehabilitation usually mandates higher levels of skilled nursing services. This means a broad scope of services, spanning from registered nurses to physical and respiratory therapists, as well as other variations of therapy. In this facility's case, we were surprised to learn that it actually provides less registered nurse and physical therapist hours per resident than a typical facility. The last datapoint we considered in this category is the percentage of patients who ultimately were able to return home from the nursing home. We found that just 0 percent of this nursing home's residents returned home.

Our final category is long-term care, where we awarded this facility a grade of C in that category. In a long-term care environment, the nursing home's primary goal is to maintain patients' quality of life and keep them safe. On top of looking at the volume of care provided by nurses aids and other staff, we also looked at the percentage of residents vaccinated against pneumonia. This facility administered the vaccine to 93.478264 percent of its patients, which is a few points less than we anticipated. On a more positive note, this place was able to limit hospitalizations. It had less than one hospitalization per one thousand long-term resident days, which is an impressively low number.
