    About Herman Health Care Center

    Herman Health Care Center is a medium-sized nursing facility with 99 beds, situated in San Jose, California. As a for-profit entity under individual ownership, it operates independently and is not affiliated with any continuing care retirement community. The center provides both short-term rehabilitation and long-term care services, participating in both Medicare and Medicaid programs to support a range of residents with diverse financial and health care needs.

    The facility offers short-term rehabilitation for individuals recovering after a hospital stay from conditions such as stroke, heart attack, infections, or accidental injury. In this care category, around 30.7% of residents were able to return home following their rehabilitation. The rate of major falls reported among residents was 1.7%, while infections resulting in hospitalization accounted for 7.4% of short-term stays. Furthermore, emergency room visits were required by 13.5% of short-term residents during their time at the center. Each resident receives an average of 3 hours and 37 minutes of nurse staffing per day, contributing to both medical and daily living support. Notably, the facility is rated as having excellent consistency between weekend and weekday staffing levels.

    For those in need of long-term care, the center maintains a focus on preserving residents' independence and quality of life. Approximately 79.7% of long-term care residents were able to maintain self-care abilities, including moving, eating, and performing other daily activities without help. The facility also emphasizes preventive health measures, with 99.5% of its residents having received the annual influenza vaccination. Emergency room visit rates in this category were relatively low, with just 1.9 visits per 1,000 patient days.

    Herman Health Care Center has undergone regular inspections focusing on health, fire, and safety standards typical for nursing homes. These inspections cover a broad range of care aspects such as assistance with activities of daily living, honoring residents' rights, development and implementation of individualized care plans, and ensuring safe medication practices. The facility was cited for several areas in which improvements were required, including timely communication of health status and services, reporting suspected abuse or neglect, coordination of assessments, and providing safe and appropriate pain management and respiratory care. Other inspection findings included the need for enhanced food storage and preparation standards, thorough medication management, and maintaining accurate daily records of nurse staffing.

    Despite these areas for improvement, violations recorded were generally classified as having a low potential for harm and affected a limited number of residents. Many of the issues cited were addressed within a relatively short timeframe and covered a range of operational, clinical, and quality-of-life domains, such as proper installation of bed rails, maintenance of infection prevention and control programs, provision of adequate room space, disposal of refuse, and ensuring the competencies of care providers.

    Overall, Herman Health Care Center is a facility that serves a variety of needs for older adults and individuals requiring skilled nursing or prolonged support with daily activities. Residents benefit from consistent staffing, standard preventive care protocols, and participation in both Medicare and Medicaid programs, helping to address the needs of a diverse and medically complex population.
