Facility Inspections

Grade: A-plus

One of the reasons this turned out to be a great nursing home is that it earned an A+ in our inspections category. This is simply as good as it gets in this category. We weigh several aspects of a nursing home's inspection report in calculating our inspection ratings. One of those factors is health deficiencies. It should be noted that the severity of the deficiencies is usually more meaningful than the quantity of deficiencies, as some end up being quite insignificant. Unfortunately, it doesn't appear that we were able to find deficiency counts for this nursing home. Finally, this facility had no substantiated complaints this year from residents, which is an excellent sign.

Short-term Care Quality

Grade: A-plus

This top-shelf facility also performed remarkably in the area of short-term care, where it received a grade of A+. Very few nursing homes fared better in this area. Our short-term care grades are believed to be more important for residents in need of rehabilitation from their nursing home. Rehabilitation generally mandates higher levels of highly-skilled nursing services. This means not only nursing services, but also physical and occupational therapy, as well as other forms of therapy. We were pleased to find that this nursing home employs both registered nurses and physical therapists. The same can't be said for all nursing homes. Finally, we assessed the percentage of patients who eventually returned home from this facility. We found that 5.2 percent of this nursing home's residents returned home.

Nurse Quality

Grade: A

This nursing home also received a very impressive nursing grade. In that area, we awarded this facility a grade of A. We analyzed the levels of nurses at the facility, in addition to the number of hours the nurses spent with patients, in calculating our score in this area. This nursing home provides 0.8 hours of nursing care per resident per day. Finally, our nursing grades also factor in quality-based assessments, such as avoiding major falls. This nursing home performed well in this area. Avoiding major falls is typically a good indicator that a facility has reliable quality controls in place. Major falls can often be avoided if more nurses aids and better safety protocols are in place.

Long-term Care Quality

Grade: A

In our last category, this facility also was given a very strong long-term care grade, with an A. This completed an elusive straight A profile. For patients in need of a permanent place to live rather than rehabilitation, long-term care grades are very important. After considering the volume of care provided by nurses and other staff, we turned to the facility's vaccination data. It does not look like this facility provided information about vaccinations. Clearly, this facility is doing something right in this area as it also excelled at keeping its residents out of the hospital. It had less than one hospitalization per 1,000 long-term resident days, which is an impressively low figure.
