This facility provides 0.3 hours of nursing care per resident on a daily basis. This is a much lower figure than we are used to seeing. Lastly, our nursing scores also factor in quality-based assessments, such as avoiding major falls. Despite not having the most impressive total nursing hours per resident, this facility actually performed admirably in the area of preventing major falls. This is often a reliable indicator that a facility has sufficient quality controls in place. Many falls can be avoided if a facility provides enough nurses to assist its patients.
Short-term Care Quality
Moving on to the fourth area, we awarded this facility a D in short-term care. This was the nursing home's least impressive category score. Naturally, this category hurt the nursing home's overall profile a bit. In determining our short-term care grades, we scrutinize a nursing home's levels of skilled nursing, which includes registered nurses, physical therapists respiratory therapists and other highly trained professionals. This category is considered to be a meaningful assessment of a nursing home's ability to rehabilitate patients. Unfortunately, we discovered that this nursing home provides less physical therapist and registered nurse hours per resident than most other nursing homes. Finally, we considered the percentage of residents who were able to return home from this nursing home. This nursing home didn't fare well here either. In fact, we found that just 5 percent of this facility's patients were able to return home. This figure was quite a bit off the national average.
