Facility Inspections

Grade: A

While this nursing home's overall grade was as bad as it gets, it actually excelled in the area of inspections. In fact, we awarded it an A for that category, which is one of our highest scores. Arguably the most critical factor we look at in determining our inspection scores is deficiencies. Deficiencies can be found on a nursing home's recent inspection reports. It is generally best to avoid places that have too many severe deficiencies. Fortunately, although this nursing home had a few minor dings on its inspection report, it had no severe deficiencies. Severe deficiencies are labeled as categories G through L. This tells you that the government inspectors didn't consider any of the deficiencies on this facility's report to pose an imminent threat to patient health or safety. A couple minor deficiencies aren't necessarily the end of the world.

Long-term Care Quality

Grade: F

This facility wound up receiving a bottom of the barrel score in our long-term care area. It received a lowly F in this area. Nursing homes that do not fare well in this category often don't provide as much nursing care and also may be lagging in a few of the areas of routine medical care we looked at. Once we assessed the volume of care provided by nurses, we next considered the nursing home's vaccination data. Candidly, we were a bit concerned this facility vaccinated just 87.2 percent of its patients for pneumonia. To our surprise, this place actually fared well at keeping its residents out of the hospital. It had just 0.01 hospitalizations per one thousand long-term resident days. This was its best feature in this category.

Nurse Quality

Grade: F

Unfortunately, we gave this facility an F for its nursing grade. We assessed the licensure of nurses employed by the nursing home, as well as the number of hours the nurses were with patients, in calculating our grade in this area. This place offered just 0.3 hours of nursing care per patient on a daily basis. Finally, we also assessed some nursing quality-based metrics in calculating our nursing ratings. This facility fared well in the area of avoiding pressure ulcers and major falls.

Short-term Care Quality

Grade: F

Switching gears to the final category, this nursing home really did not fare well in this area either. With a rock bottom grade of F in short-term care, this is really as terrible as it gets. Our short-term care scores are arguably most meaningful for folks in need of rehabilitation from their nursing home. Rehabilitation generally mandates additional highly-skilled nursing. Skilled nursing includes not just nursing, but also physical and respiratory therapy, as well as other forms of therapy. As you might expect, we learned that this place provides significantly less registered nurse and physical therapist hours per patient than the average facility. The last metric we looked at in this area is the number of patients who were able to leave the facility and return to the community. We discovered that just 3.5 percent of this facility's patients were able to return home, which is well below average. The combination of these poor statistics sunk this nursing home's short-term care score.

Thomson Health and Rehabilitation Quality Metrics

Minimizes Pressure Ulcers

Grade: D

In Thomson Health and Rehabilitation, 15.19% of Patients had Pressure Ulcers

This datapoint measures the percentage of long-term patients who suffered from new or worsened pressure ulcers or bed sores. We bake this statistic into both nursing and long-term care grades.

Minimizes Serious Falls

Grade: C

In Thomson Health and Rehabilitation, 4.27% of Patients had Serious Falls

This is the percentage of patients that sustained a major fall. Falls resulting in serious injury are considered by many experts to be a barometer of the quality of nursing care at a nursing home. Falls leading to injury are often the result of lower quality nursing care.

Minimizes Urinary Tract Infections

Grade: B-plus

In Thomson Health and Rehabilitation, 1.1% of Patients had UTIs

This indicates the percent of residents who suffered from a urinary tract infection. UTI's are routinely the result of facilities with lower levels of hygiene. Additional nurse staffing limits the percentage of residents in a nursing home who suffer from UTI's. Note that this datapoint is sometimes skewed by the fact that facilities have incongruent reporting standards for these infections.

Appropriately Uses Anti-Psychotic Medication

Grade: B

In Thomson Health and Rehabilitation, 13.08% of Patients use Anti-Psychotic Medication

This indicates the percent of residents prescribed antipsychotic drugs. Antipsychotic drugs are administered to residents for many conditions, such as cognitive disorders. Tragically, in some cases, high levels of antipsychotic drug use may mean a facility is using these drugs to subdue residents.

Appropriately Uses Anti-Anxiety Medication

Grade: A

In Thomson Health and Rehabilitation, 9.97% of Patients use Anti-Anxiety Medication

This indicates the percentage of residents prescribed antianxiety medications. Antianxiety drugs are prescribed to patients experiencing depression or anxiety.

Appropriate Vaccine Usage

Grade: C

In Thomson Health and Rehabilitation, 91.66% of Patients

Ability to Keep Residents Mobile

Grade: A

In Thomson Health and Rehabilitation, 25.03% of Residents

This tells you the percent of residents who remained mobile levels over time. Optimizing mobility can be a great sign for residents' well-being.

Hospitalizations

Grade: A-minus

In Thomson Health and Rehabilitation, 0.01 Hospitalizations per 1,000 resident days

This indicates the number of times residents are hospitalized per 1,000 days of care. There is usually a correlation between staying out of the hospital and the quality of care.

Short-term Care: Rehospitalizations

Grade: D

In Thomson Health and Rehabilitation, 25.03% of Residents Rehospitalized

This is the number of times residents are rehospitalized per 1,000 days of short-term patient care.

Short-term Care: ER Visits

Grade: B-plus

In Thomson Health and Rehabilitation, 9.83% of Patients

Measures the number of emergency room visits per 1,000 days of short-term patient care.

Short-term Care: Facilitates Functional Improvement

Grade: B-minus

In Thomson Health and Rehabilitation, 74.94% of Resident

This is a measure of the percent of short-term care patients who saw functional improvements, such as with activities of daily living. Many in the industry argue that this is a reliable measure of a facility's rehabilitation performance.
