Many of these factors relate to the quantity and quality of nurse staffing. This nursing home provides 0.6 hours of nursing care per resident per day. Finally, we also looked at some nursing quality measures in determining our nursing grades.

Short-term Care Quality

Grade: A-plus

We also awarded this nursing home a grade of A+ for its short-term care grade. In the category of short-term care, we attempt to assess measures of a facility's rehabilitation services. We assess a nursing home's skilled nursing services, such as those performed by registered nurses and physical and occupational therapists. Fortunately, it looks like this nursing home employs registered nurses. Not all facilities employs these types of nurses. On the other hand, based on the data this nursing home provided, they do not appear to employ physical therapists. The final datapoint we looked at in this category is the number of residents who who were able to eventually return home from the facility. We found that 5.9 percent of this nursing home's residents returned home as opposed to remaining at the facility on a permanent basis.

Facility Inspections

Grade: A

Racking up yet another strong category grade, this facility also excelled in inspections, where it received a score of A. Few facilities performed better in this area. Our inspection grades are based on datapoints found on the a nursing home's recent inspection reports. Facilities that receive favorable grades in this category tend to have very few deficiencies on their reports. Most importantly, these facilities generally do not have any severe deficiencies which are associated with risks to patient safety. It does not look like we have deficiency counts for this nursing home. We would like to have more information about this facility. Without having complete deficiency related data, it was a challenge to grade it in the area of inspections.

Long-term Care Quality

Grade: A-minus

In the last area, we awarded this facility an A for our long-term care rating. This finished off a very favorable profile. When nursing homes receive a score in this range in this category it typically means it's well-staffed and is a quality place to live on a permanent basis. In addition to considering the quantity of care provided by aids and other staff, we also looked at the percentage of residents vaccinated for pneumonia. This nursing home vaccinated 97.95918 percent of its patients. Vaccines are vital to keeping patients healthy. Finally, this facility was able to limit hospitalizations. Indeed, it had only 0.03 hospitalizations per one thousand long-term resident days, which is an impressively low number.
