Overall Ratings
The Arkansas Health Center is a premier nursing home highly regarded for its outstanding overall performance. The facility boasts a 5-star overall rating, the highest possible mark, ranking it in the top 10% of such institutions, a rating that is significantly above the state average. Additionally, the nursing home has earned a 4-star health inspection rating, the second highest obtainable, placing it in the top 30% of all facilities in terms of health inspection assessment. This score is notably higher than the state average, promising residents a safe and compliant environment. However, while the overall service is remarkable, the nursing home's track record in quality is below par with a 2-star quality rating, ranking it in the bottom 20% of facilities. This score falls short of the state average, indicating an area for potential improvement.Staff Ratings
Arkansas Health Center is a top-tier nursing home known for its excellent staff that boasts a 5-star rating, the highest achievable. It ranks in the top 10% of all facilities nationwide due to its commendable ratio of nursing aid staffing hours per resident per day, at 3.32 hours; considerably higher than the state's average of 2.48 hours. Additionally, the facility's provision of 1.19 hours of LPN staffing hours per resident every day positions it in the top 20% of facilities, faring better than the state average of 1.0 hours. Despite the RN staffing hours being lower at 0.73 hours, they still put the nursing home in the top 40%, well above the state's average of 0.38 hours. The nursing home also excels in providing 1.92 hours of licensed staffing per resident daily, nestling it in the top 20%, as this number exceeds the state average of 1.38 hours. However, the center falls short in physical therapist staffing hours per resident per day, ranking in the bottom 40% with 0.03 hours - the same as the state's average.Covid Data
The Arkansas Health Center is recognized as being in the top 20% of nursing home facilities in terms of having residents who are up to date with their latest vaccinations. With an impressive rate of 89.0%, it far surpasses the state average of 62.0%. This testament to their commitment towards resident health is somewhat marred by their less impressive staff vaccination rates. Unfortunately, they fall into the bottom 30% of facilities when it comes to their staff being up to date with their vaccinations. Their current rate stands at a meager 6.0%, which is significantly below the state average of 20.0%. Despite their admirable progress in resident health care, the staff's comparatively low vaccination rate is a pressing concern that needs addressing.Quality Measures
The Arkansas Health Center, a nursing home with a 2-star quality measure rating, rests in the lower percentile of facilities concerning the number of residents that experience one or more falls with a major injury, at a rate of 3.15%, which is lower than the state's average of 3.88%. Nevertheless, it also presents some strong points, being in the top half of nursing homes regarding pneumococcal vaccine administration. Here, the center excels with 98.77% of its residents receiving the vaccine, surpassing the state's average of 94.52%. Another factor positioning the Arkansas Health Center in the upper half of facilities is the rate of residents who lose excessive weight, where it again falls below the state average—5.36% compared to 5.48%. Repetitively, it impresses with pneumococcal vaccine administration, underlining its devotion to this preventative health measure.Emergency and Hospitalization Quality Measures
The Arkansas Health Center, a nursing home facility, figures in the bottom 40% of institutions when it comes to hospitalizations per 1000 days, with a rate of 2.08. This figure exceeds the state average of 1.99 hospitalizations per 1000 days. In addition, the Arkansas Health Center also features in the bottom 40% of nursing homes regarding outpatient emergency department visits per thousand days. The data showcases that the center's rate stands at 1.25 visits, which is, interestingly, lower than the state's average of 1.42 visits per thousand days.Healthcare Nearby
