St Anthony's Nrsg & Rehab Center

Even though we didn't give this facility a good overall score, we actually gave it a strong grade in our short-term care category, where it earned a grade of B+. This is better than most nursing homes in this area. To some extent, this propped up an otherwise abysmal profile. In computing our short-term care grades, we analyze the facility's skilled nursing services, such as those performed by registered nurses, occupational therapists, physical therapists and other types of therapists. The goal is to formulate a barometer for sizing up the rehabilitation services of various nursing homes. Unfortunately, we were not able to track down information about this nursing home's registered nurse or physical therapy staffing. Lastly, we considered the percentage of patients who were able to return home from this facility. We found that 0 percent of this nursing home's patients returned home.

We awarded this facility a respectable grade in the area of nursing as well, with a grade of B-. Nursing ratings are mostly based on the nursing home's level of nurse staffing. This nursing home provides only 0 hours of nursing care per resident each day. This is a somewhat uninspiring figure as it is well below average. Finally, despite not having the highest total nursing hours per resident, this facility performed admirably in the metric of preventing major falls. This is generally an indicator that a facility has quality controls in place.

Among this place's worst category grades was an F for its inspection score. More often than not, this indicates we found some red flags on the nursing home's inspections. We would advise paying special attention to any deficiencies on a facility's inspection reports when it receives this bad of an inspection score. We suggest you pay close attention to the level of severity of the deficiencies. This nursing home was assessed a category G through L deficiency, which rank among the more serious categories of deficiencies. This generally indicates that the deficiencies found by the government inspectors had the potential to pose actual harm to patients. Finally, we also want to draw your attention to the fact that this nursing home was assessed significant government fines of more than $100,000. This generally indicates that a nursing home's poor performance has been an issue for several years.

The final area we assessed is long-term care, where this facility was given a rock bottom grade here also. We gave it an F in this category, which is obviously very concerning. In a long-term care setting, the facility's primary goal is to maintain patients' quality of life and keep them safe. On top of considering the amount of care provided by aids and other staff, we looked at the number of residents vaccinated for pneumonia. This facility vaccinated 94.42379 percent of its patients, which is more than most nursing homes. Surprisingly, this facility was able to limit hospitalizations. With only 0 hospitalizations per one thousand long-term resident days, this nursing home has fewer hospitalizations than most nursing homes. Sadly, some of its other scores in this category were not as favorable as these.
