Facility Inspections

Grade: A-plus

In addition to receiving an elite overall score, this nursing home also received an A+ inspection grade. This score is based on the facility's recent inspection reports. An A+ in this category is one of the highest complements we can pay to a facility. Inspection scores are tied to many pieces of information found on the a nursing home's recent inspection reports. Nursing homes that excel in this category tend to have few deficiencies on their reports. Most importantly, these nursing homes should not have any severe deficiencies which are associated with endangerment of patients.

Long-term Care Quality

Grade: A-plus

We also wanted to point out the fact that this facility excelled in our long-term care category. We awarded them a dominant score of A+ in this area. When nursing homes receive this kind of grade in long-term care it is typically a good sign for patient care and suggests that the facility is well-staffed with nurses aids. After considering the volume of care provided by nurses and other staff, we next considered the facility's vaccination data. This nursing home vaccinated 100 percent of its residents against pneumonia. Vaccines are critical to keeping residents healthy. Clearly, this facility is doing something right in this area as it was able to keep its residents out of the hospital. Indeed, it had only 0 hospitalizations per 1,000 long-term resident days, which is an impressively low number.

Grade: A-minus

Turning the page to our next category, this nursing home was awarded first-rate short-term care score. In fact, we gave it a score of A- in that category. Short-term care ratings are vital for prospective residents needing rehabilitation. Rehabilitation usually utilizes more skilled nursing. This means a broad range of services, spanning from registered nurses to physical and respiratory therapists, as well as other variations of therapy. Unfortunately, it does not look like this facility submitted data regarding its registered nurse or physical therapy staffing. Lastly, we assessed the percentage of patients who were able to return to the community from this nursing home. We found that 0 percent of this facility's patients returned home.

Nurse Quality

Grade: B-plus

In the last category we analyzed, this facility was given a very strong grade of B+ in our nursing category. With this score, the facility topped off a very favorable report card. Our nursing score assesses several factors, but the paramount consideration is the quantity of nurse hours per patient per week. This nursing home provides 0 hours of nursing care per resident per day. Lastly, we also looked at certain nursing quality-based metrics in computing our nursing grades. These include minimizing residents' pressure ulcers and major falls. We look at these statistics as predictive measures of the quality of nursing care being provided, since better care tends to reduce these problems.
