Facility Inspections

Grade: A-plus

On top of receiving a strong overall grade, this facility also received an A+ inspection score. This score is based on its recent government inspections. An A+ in this area is one of the best complements we can pay to a nursing home. Inspection scores weigh several factors, including deficiencies and substantiated complaints. You can find more information about each of these factors by obtaining copies of nursing homes' inspection reports. While this facility had a few minor dings on its report, it had zero severe deficiencies. Severe deficiencies are ones labeled as categories G, H, I, J, K and L. This means that the inspectors didn't consider any of the deficiencies on this facility's report to pose an imminent threat to patient safety or health. Finally, this facility had no substantiated complaints this year from residents, which is an excellent sign.

Nurse Quality

Grade: A

Adding to its strong resume, this facility also received an excellent nursing score, with a grade of A. We looked at the licensure of nurses working for the nursing home, in addition to the number of hours those nurses were with patients, in computing our rating in this category. This nursing home provides 0.5 hours of nursing care per resident per day. Finally, we also assessed several nursing quality measures and this place excelled in some of these areas. With less than five percent of its residents sustaining pressure ulcers, it performed as well as any facility the state in this category. This is generally a good indicator of quality nursing care. Pressure ulcers can often be avoided by providing better nursing care, such as employing a protocol of turning a patient at least once a day.

Long-term Care Quality

Grade: A

Turning the page to our next area, we awarded this facility a score of A for its long-term care score. This is a first-rate score. Nursing homes that do well in this category typically provide patients with better supervision and stay on top of routine healthcare services. On top of looking at the volume of care provided by nurses and other staff, we analyzed the number of residents vaccinated against pneumonia. This nursing home vaccinated 100 percent of its patients, which is far higher than most nursing homes. Clearly, this facility is doing something right in this area as it also excelled at keeping its residents out of the hospital. In fact, it had only 0.01 hospitalizations per 1,000 long-term resident days, which is a remarkably low number.

Short-term Care Quality

Grade: B-minus

Turning to our last category, this nursing home was awarded an acceptable short-term care grade. Even though this is not nearly as strong as several of its other grades, this is truly not a major area of concern. Our short-term care grades are based on the facility's quantity of highly-skilled nursing services. This means a vast spectrum of services, ranging from registered nurses to physical and speech therapists, as well as other variations of therapy. Fortunately, it appear that this nursing home has registered nurses on staff. Not every nursing home employs these skilled professionals. On the other hand, based on the data this nursing home provided, they do not appear to employ physical therapists. Finally, we looked at the number of patients who were able to return to the community from this facility. We found that 3.4 percent of this facility's patients returned home. At most facilities, closer to half of their residents are able to return home so this figure is below average.
