Facility Inspections

An A+ in this area is one of the best complements we can pay to a nursing home. Inspection ratings are based on items located in the a nursing home's recent inspection reports. Facilities that score well in this area typically have few deficiencies on those reports. Most importantly, these places generally do not have any severe deficiencies which are associated with risks to patient safety. We weren't able to locate information on deficiency's for this nursing home. Finally, this facility had no substantiated complaints this year from residents, which is an excellent sign.

Long-term Care Quality

Grade: A-plus

This facility also received an A+ for its long-term care grade. Nursing homes that receive this kind of grade in this category typically provide consistent around the clock care to make sure patients are kept in good health. After considering the volume of care provided by aids and other staff, we then looked at the facility's vaccination record. This nursing home vaccinated 80 percent of its patients for pneumonia, which is somewhat less than we anticipated but still a respectable percentage. While its vaccination rate was a bit lower than we hoped for, at least this place was able to limit hospitalizations. Indeed, it had only 0.02 hospitalizations per 1,000 long-term resident days, which is an impressively low figure.

Nurse Quality

Grade: A

We also wanted to emphasize the fact that this facility received an impressive grade of A in our nursing category. The nursing grade is based on a host of datapoints. The most important one is the quantity of hours nurses spend with residents. This nursing home provides 0.5 hours of nursing care per resident per day. Lastly, we also assessed some nursing quality measures in determining our nursing grades. This place performed very well in the area of minimizing its residents' major falls and pressure ulcers. We consider these areas to be good indicators of the quality of nursing care.

Short-term Care Quality

Grade: B-plus

Turning to our last area, this nursing home also performed well in the short-term care category. In fact, we gave it a B+ in this category. This finalized a very strong report card. Our short-term care scores are based on the facility's quantity of skilled nursing services. This means a vast spectrum of nursing services, ranging from registered nurses to physical and speech therapists, not to mention other types of therapy. Fortunately, it appear that this facility employs registered nurses. Not all nursing homes employs these skilled professionals. However, based on the data they provided, they do not appear to employ physical therapists. Lastly, we looked at the percentage of patients who who were able to eventually return home from this facility. We found that 4.5 percent of this facility's patients were able to return home.
