Facility Inspections
Grade: A
In addition to being a top notch facility overall, it also excelled in the area of inspections, where it received an A. Not many nursing homes performed better in this area. Arguably the most significant factor we look at in calculating our inspection ratings is deficiencies. Deficiencies are found on a facility's recent inspection reports. Places with higher scores in this area typically dodged the most severe deficiencies involving things like patient abuse. This particular nursing home had just a single deficiency on its inspection report and it was not one deemed to pose a threat to patient health or safety. Finally, this facility had no substantiated complaints this year from residents, which is an excellent sign.
Short-term Care Quality
Grade: A-minus
This facility also was given a fine short-term care score. In fact, this ended up being its second most impressive category grade. In that category, we awarded this facility a grade of A-. Our short-term care ratings are likely more critical for residents in need of rehabilitation services. Rehabilitation generally requires higher levels of skilled nursing services. Skilled nursing means not just nursing, but also physical and speech therapy, as well as other types of therapy. Fortunately, it looks like this facility has registered nurses on staff. Not all nursing homes employs these skilled professionals. However, based on the data this nursing home provided, it does not look like the facility employs physical therapists. The final measure we assessed in this category is the percentage of residents who were able to leave the nursing home and return home. We found that 6.8 percent of this nursing home's residents returned home.

Long-term Care Quality
Grade: A-minus
Moving on our next category, we awarded this facility a score of A- for our long-term care rating. This is a first-rate score. For residents in need of a permanent place to live as opposed to skilled nursing, long-term care is a very important category. On top of assessing the amount of care provided by nurses and other staff, we looked at the percentage of residents vaccinated against pneumonia. This facility provided the vaccine to 92.53333 percent of its residents. This is somewhat below what we anticipated but still a reasonably acceptable percentage. Clearly, this facility is doing something right in this area as it was able to keep its patients out of the hospital. In fact, it had only 0.01 hospitalizations per one thousand long-term resident days, which is an impressively low figure.
Nurse Quality
Grade: B-plus
Turning to the next category, this nursing home also performed admirably in the nursing category. We awarded it a B+ for this category. This topped off a very strong profile. Nursing grades are mostly tied to the nursing home's nurse staffing. This nursing home provides 0.4 hours of nursing care per resident per day. Finally, we also assessed some nursing quality measures in determining our nursing grades. This place performed very well in the area of avoiding major falls and pressure ulcers. We consider these areas to be good indicators of the quality of nursing care.
