Fieldhome Receives a 5-Star Medicare Overall Rating

FIELDHOME has just received a 5-Star Overall Rating from the Centers for Medicare and Medicaid Services.  The Five-Star Quality Rating System allows consumers, their families, and caregivers to compare the quality of care and services provided by skilled nursing and short-term rehabilitation facilities.

The quality rating system ranges from 1 to 5 stars, with a 1 star rating given to nursing homes that provide below average quality of care and 5 stars to those who offer exceptional care to their patients and residents.  The Overall Star Rating is based on health inspections, staffing data (the number of hours of care provided to each resident by nursing staff), and quality measures (how well a nursing home cares for their residents’ physical and clinical needs).

FIELDHOME also recently converted its rehab unit to ALL private rooms and bathrooms — and is the only facility in the area that offers this.  National studies show that patients in private rooms have shorter stays, require less pain medication, and rest and sleep better with less disruption and stress. Single-patient rooms have also been found to reduce the spread of infection.  FIELDHOME also staffs a Nurse Practitioner to provide extra medical oversight ensuring a higher standard of care.
