Short-term Care Quality

Grade: A-minus

In addition to being a first rate facility overall, this facility also excelled in the category of short-term care, where it earned an A-. Our short-term care scores are arguably more critical for people requiring a nursing home for rehabilitation. Rehabilitation typically requires more skilled nursing. Skilled nursing includes not only nursing services, but also physical and speech therapy, as well as other types of therapy. Fortunately, it appear that this nursing home employs registered nurses. Not every nursing home employs these skilled professionals. However, based on the information they provided, they do not appear to employ physical therapists. The final item we looked at in this category is the number of patients who were able to leave the nursing home and return to the community. We discovered that 6.1 percent of this nursing home's patients returned home.

Long-term Care Quality

Grade: A-minus

This nursing home also was superb in the category of long-term care, where it received a score of A-. Few facilities fared better in this category. When facilities receive a score in this range in this category it typically means it has plenty of staff and is a quality place to live on a permanent basis. In addition to assessing the volume of care provided by nurses and other staff, we looked at the number of residents vaccinated against pneumonia. This facility administered the vaccine to 95.652176 percent of its patients. Vaccines are vital to keeping patients healthy. Clearly, this place is doing something right in this area as it was able to keep its residents out of the hospital. It had only 0.01 hospitalizations per one thousand long-term resident days, which is a remarkably low figure.

Facility Inspections

Grade: B-plus

Adding to its impressive category grades, we awarded this nursing home a grade of B+ for our inspections rating. Perhaps the most significant factor we look at in determining our inspection ratings is deficiencies. Deficiencies are found on a facility's inspection reports. Nursing homes with better scores in this area most likely dodged the more severe deficiencies involving patient abuse or death. This place was hit with 4 deficiencies on its inspection report, but fortunately none of the deficiencies were considered to be severe. This indicates that CMS didn't deem any of these deficiencies to cause an immediate risk to patient health or safety. Finally, this facility had no substantiated complaints this year from residents, which is an excellent sign.

Nurse Quality

Grade: B-plus

In the final category we assessed, this facility was awarded a very favorable grade of B+ in our nursing category. With this grade, the facility rounded out a very favorable profile. Nursing scores are based largely on quantity of nursing care available. This nursing home provides 0.4 hours of nursing care per resident per day. Finally, we also looked at certain nursing quality measures in computing our nursing grades. These include minimizing residents' pressure ulcers and major falls. We look at these areas as reliable measures of the quality of nursing care offered, since better care tends to reduce these problems.
