Sycamore Glen Health Center is an average-sized nursing home in Miamisburg, Ohio. Our grading scheme was not favorable to this nursing home, as we gave it an overall grade of F. Keep in mind that Miamisburg received a city grade of C, so should look at some other options in the city as well. While this nursing home received suboptimal grades this year, we did want to let you know that there was a recent ownership change. We will keep an eye on their inspections and quality scores to see whether their performance warrants better scores in the future.
Please note our records indicate that Sycamore Glen Health Center has changed ownership recently and while our data on this page is up-to-date there is a chance that the quality of this facility may change under new management.

Facility Inspections
B
Historical
Although this nursing home's overall score was as bad as it gets, it actually performed well in the category of inspections. In fact, we awarded it a B for that category, which is one of our better scores. Inspection scores are based on many pieces of information found on 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 that have severe deficiencies linked to risks to resident well being. While this nursing home had a few minor dings on its government inspection report, it had zero severe deficiencies. Severe deficiencies are those labeled as categories G, H, I, J, K and L. This means the government inspectors did not deem any of the deficiencies on this facility's report to pose an imminent threat to patient safety or health. A couple minor deficiencies aren't necessarily the end of the world.
Short-term Care Quality
D
Historical
We gave this facility a grade of just D for our short-term care score and that actually wound up as its next highest score. In our short-term care rating, we strive to forge a fair measure for rehabilitation. In this process, we look at the nursing home's levels of skilled nursing services, including both registered nurses and physical therapy, as well as respiratory therapy. In this place's case, it looks like it offered less registered nurse and physical therapist hours per resident than the average facility. Finally, we considered the number of patients who returned home from this nursing home. This place performed better in this area, with 49.6 percent of its patients returning home.

Long-term Care Quality
F
Historical
In addition, we gave this nursing home an F in the category of long-term care. Long-term care scores of this caliber generally are a bad sign for the quantity and quality of care provided by nurses and aids. In addition to considering the amount of care provided by nurses and other staff, we also looked at the percentage of residents vaccinated for pneumonia. Frankly, we were a bit worried that this nursing home administered the vaccine to a relatively low 88.12785 percent of its patients. Lastly, we looked at the facility's number of hospitalizations. Here we found that this facility fared poorly with 3.19 hospitalizations per 1,000 long-term resident days. Sadly, this figure is nearly double the national average.
Nurse Quality
F
Historical
The last area we assessed was nursing. This facility was given a very poor grade of F in that category. Our nursing rating consists of many data points, but the paramount consideration is the level of nurse hours per patient per week. This place offered just 2 hours of nursing care per patient per day. In addition to rating below average in nursing hours per resident, this facility also had poor marks in the quality-based measures we looked at in calculating our nursing ratings. We looked at the percent of residents sustaining pressure ulcers and major falls. This nursing home was at approximately 150 percent of the national average in both of these statistics. This is likely a bad sign when you consider that many bed sores and falls are preventable with better nursing care. These scores pulled down this facility's nursing rating quite a bit.
