Windsor Hampton Care Center

Windsor Hampton Care Center is located in the large metropolitan area of Stockton, California. With an overall grade of D, this is a relatively poor nursing home. Stockton received a city grade of B-, so there are other options in the city worth considering. The best thing we can really say about this place is that it did not receive any F's in in any of the major categories. More information about its category grades is available below.

While we did not rate this nursing home well overall, we would like to note its decent government inspections in recent years. We awarded it a relatively respectable score of B- in that area. We weigh several aspects of a nursing home's inspection report in calculating our inspection scores. One of those factors is deficiencies. You should keep in mind that the severity of these deficiencies is usually more important than the number of deficiencies, as some deficiencies end up being quite insignificant. Fortunately, although this nursing home had a few minor dings on its government inspection report, it had no severe deficiencies. Severe deficiencies are found in categories G through L. This tells you the inspectors did not consider 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.

One of the other reasons we graded this facility so highly is that it earned a very impressive nursing rating. This proved to be its second best category grade. In that area, we awarded this facility an B-. In calculating a nursing home's nursing score, we assess the number of hours nurses are caring for residents as well as the levels of training of those nurses. This nursing home provides an impressive 3.9 hours of nursing care per patient on a daily basis. Finally, our nursing grades also factor in quality-based metrics, such as preventing major falls. This nursing home performed admirably in this area. Avoiding serious falls is often an indicator that a nursing home has quality controls in place. Some falls can be avoided if a facility provides enough nurses to assist its patients.

This facility was awarded its third highest category grade in the area of short-term care. We gave this facility a grade of B- in this category, which is a decent score. Our short-term care grade is commonly employed to measure a facility's rehabilitation services To have high-end rehabilitation services, facilities generally must have higher levels of highly skilled nursing services. Skilled nursing includes registered nurses, physical therapists, respiratory therapists and other licensed professionals. One of this nursing home's strengths is physical therapy hours. We found that it offers more hours with physical therapists to its residents than most facilities. The last datapoint we assessed in this area is the percentage of patients who were able to leave the facility and return to the community. We found that it fared well in this metric with 59.4 percent of its residents returning home. For most nursing homes, fewer than half of their short-term residents are able to return home.

Switching gears to the last category, we gave this nursing home a D for our long-term care category. This is the nursing home's worst category score. In a long-term care environment, the facility's primary objective is to maintain patients' quality of life and keep them safe. In addition to looking at the quantity of care provided by aids and other staff, we looked at the number of residents vaccinated for pneumonia. This nursing home administered the vaccine to 98.86364 percent of its patients, which is higher than the majority of nursing homes. To our surprise, this nursing home also fared well at keeping its patients out of the hospital. Indeed, it had just 1.37 hospitalizations per 1,000 long-term resident days. Sadly, a few of its other scores in the category were not as favorable as these.
