Facility Inspections

Grade: A-plus

On top of being a strong nursing home overall, it also received A+ government inspections recently. Its inspections are virtually perfect. These inspection ratings take several factors into consideration, including deficiencies, substantiated complaints and federal fines. You can find more information about each of these factors by reviewing copies of nursing homes' inspection reports. This place was hit with 4 deficiencies on its inspection report, but fortunately none were considered to be severe. This indicates that the inspectors didn't consider any of the deficiencies an immediate threat to patient safety or health. Finally, this facility had no substantiated complaints this year from residents, which is an excellent sign.

Long-term Care Quality

Grade: A

This facility also was strong in the category of long-term care, where we gave it a score of A. Few nursing homes fared better in this area. If you are looking for anything other than rehabilitation, you should take a close look at each facility's long-term care grades. After we finished looking at the quantity of nursing care, we then analyzed the facility's vaccination statistics. This facility vaccinated 48.554913 percent of its patients against pneumonia. Clearly, this place is doing something right in this area as it also excelled at keeping its residents out of the hospital. It had only 0.01 hospitalizations per one thousand long-term resident days, which is an impressively low figure.

Short-term Care Quality

Grade: A-minus

We also wanted to emphasize the fact that this facility received a first-rate score of A- in our short-term care area. Our short-term care scores are probably most meaningful for individuals requiring rehabilitation services. Rehabilitation typically requires additional highly-skilled nursing services. Skilled nursing means not merely nursing services, but also physical and occupational therapy, as well as other types of therapy. Unfortunately, it does not look like this nursing home provided data regarding its registered nurse or physical therapy staffing. The last measure we considered in this area is the number of patients who were able to leave the facility and return to the community. We found that 5.7 percent of this nursing home's patients were able to return home.

Nurse Quality

Grade: B-plus

Moving on to our last area, this nursing home also performed well in the nursing category. We gave it a grade of B+ in that area. This wrapped up a first-rate report card. The nursing grade assesses quite a few subcategories, many of which are tied to nursing hours. This nursing home averages 0.3 hours of nursing care per resident per day. Lastly, we also assessed some nursing quality-based metrics in determining our nursing grades. This nursing home performed very well in the area of avoiding major falls and pressure ulcers. We consider these areas to be good indicators of the quality of nursing care.
