Facility Inspections

Grade: A-plus

On top of being a great facility overall, it also received A+ health inspections recently. Its inspections are virtually perfect. Our inspection scores account for a host of factors included in a nursing home's inspection reports. One of the most important criteria we weigh heavily is the quantity and severity of deficiencies. Places with better grades in this area generally have very few of these severe deficiencies. This particular nursing home had just a single deficiency on its inspection report, which is still very impressive. A lone deficiency isn't anything to panic about.

Short-term Care Quality

Grade: A-minus

We also gave this nursing home a grade of A- for our short-term care score. In determining our short-term care grades, we assess the facility's skilled nursing services, such as those performed by registered nurses, speech therapists, physical therapists and other types of skilled professionals. The goal is to devise a measure for sizing up the rehabilitation services of various facilities. Fortunately, it appear that this nursing home employs registered nurses. Not every nursing home employs these skilled professionals. However, according to the data this nursing home provided, they do not appear to employ physical therapists. The last datapoint we looked at in this area is the percentage of residents who ultimately were able to return home from the nursing home. We found that 5.3 percent of this nursing home's residents returned home as opposed to remaining at the facility on a permanent basis.

Nurse Quality

Grade: B-plus

In addition, this facility also received favorable nursing grades this year. In fact, we awarded them one of our better scores in that area, with a grade of B+. There are a host of datapoints within this grade. Most of these datapoints reflect nurse staffing. This particular nursing home provided 0.3 hours of nursing care per resident per day. Finally, we also assessed some nursing quality-based metrics in determining our nursing grades. This facility performed very well when it comes to avoiding major falls and pressure ulcers. We consider these areas to be good indicators of the quality of nursing care.

Long-term Care Quality

Grade: C

The last category we assessed is long-term care, in which this facility received a C. While this is its least impressive category score, this is nevertheless not a poor grade. In crafting our long-term care ratings, we assess the facility's ability to maintain its permanent residents' health and quality of life. After considering the quantity of care provided by nurses and other staff, we then analyzed the facility's vaccination data. This nursing home vaccinated 96.85535 percent of its residents for pneumonia, which is higher than the vast majority of nursing homes. Finally, this facility was also able to limit hospitalizations. Indeed, it had only 0 hospitalizations per one thousand long-term resident days, which is a remarkably low figure.
