Facility Inspections

Grade: A-plus

To go along with its strong overall grade, we awarded this nursing home a grade of A+ for our inspections rating. Inspection grades take several factors into consideration, including deficiencies and substantiated complaints. You can find more information about each of these items by reviewing copies of nursing homes' inspection reports. Unfortunately, it doesn't look like we have information on deficiency's 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

Contributing to its first-rate assessment, this facility also was awarded a superb short-term care grade, with a grade of A. In forming these short-term care ratings, we quantify the nursing home's skilled nursing services, including those performed by registered nurses, respiratory therapists, physical therapists and other types of therapists. The goal is to devise a tool for sizing up the rehabilitation services of nursing homes. Fortunately, it appear that this facility has registered nurses on staff. Not every nursing home employs these skilled professionals. However, based on the information they provided, it does not look like the facility employs physical therapists. Finally, we looked at the number of patients who were able to return to the community from this nursing home. We found that 6.6 percent of this facility's residents returned home.

Long-term Care Quality

Grade: A-minus

This nursing home also was superb in the category of long-term care, where we awarded it a grade of A-. Few facilities received a better grade in this category. Nursing homes that receive this type of grade in long-term care typically provide consistent around the clock care to ensure patients are well cared for. One of the factors we considered on top of nursing hours is vaccinations. Unfortunately, it does not appear that this facility submitted information on its vaccination levels. Clearly, this facility is doing something right in this area as it was able to keep its residents out of the hospital. In fact, it had only 0 hospitalizations per 1,000 long-term resident days, which is an impressively low figure.

Nurse Quality

Grade: B

The final category we assessed is nursing, where this nursing home was awarded a grade of B. Believe it or not, this proved to be this facility's least impressive category. A facility could be doing a lot worse when it's lowest score still beats out most other nursing homes. We looked at the qualifications of nurses working for the facility, in addition to the quantity of hours the nurses were with patients, in calculating our rating in this category. This particular nursing home provided 0.3 hours of nursing care per resident per day. Finally, we also assessed certain nursing quality measures in computing our nursing grades. These include minimizing residents' pressure ulcers and major falls. We look at these data points as predictive measures of the quality of nursing care being provided, since better care tends to reduce these problems.
