Short-term Care Quality

Grade: A

One of the reasons this turned out to be a quality facility is it received a very impressive short-term care grade. Short-term care is its best category. In that area, we gave this facility an A. Our short-term care grade is commonly used to grade a nursing home's rehabilitation services. To offer good rehabilitation services, nursing homes generally need to provide better levels of highly skilled nursing. Skilled nursing includes registered nurses, physical therapists, speech therapists and other highly trained professionals. Fortunately, it looks like this facility has registered nurses on staff. Not every facility employs these types of nurses. However, based on the data this nursing home provided, they do not appear to employ physical therapists. The last datapoint we assessed in this area is the percentage of patients who ultimately returned home from the nursing home. We found that 6.6 percent of this nursing home's residents returned home as opposed to remaining at the nursing home on a permanent basis.

Facility Inspections

Grade: A-minus

We also wanted to emphasize this facility's nearly flawless government inspections recently. We gave them an A- in this category. Our inspection grades weigh a host of factors found on a facility's inspection report. One key criteria we look at is the number and severity of deficiencies. Nursing homes with better scores in this area typically have very few severe deficiencies. 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. Even some of the best nursing homes receive an occasional ding on their inspection report.

Nurse Quality

Grade: B

This facility received a very good nursing grade this year as well. It received one of our better scores in that category with a grade of B. Our nursing score is based on many datapoints. The most important factor is the number of hours nurses spent with residents. This nursing home provides 0.4 hours of nursing care per resident per day. Finally, we also looked at 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: B-minus

The next area we graded was long-term care, in which this nursing home was awarded a B-. Even though this wound up being its poorest category grade, this is still not a terrible score. Our long-term care grades are more important for individuals needing more conventional services related to activities of daily living. After looking at the volume of care provided by nurses and other staff, we then analyzed the nursing home's vaccination records. This facility vaccinated 92.84116 percent of its residents for pneumonia, which happens to be slightly less than we were hoping for but still a decent percentage. Fortunately, this facility was able to limit hospitalizations. In fact, it had less than one hospitalization per one thousand long-term resident days, which is an impressively low figure.
