Facility Inspections

On top of receiving an elite overall rating, this nursing home also earned an A+ inspection grade. This grade is based on the facility's recent inspection reports. An A+ in this area is one of the best complements we can offer a nursing home. Inspection ratings weigh several factors, including deficiencies, substantiated complaints and federal fines. You can learn more about each of these factors by obtaining copies of nursing homes' inspection reports. Unfortunately, it does not look like we were able to find information about this nursing home's deficiencies. Finally, this facility had no substantiated complaints this year from residents, which is an excellent sign.

Long-term Care Quality

Contributing to its high-end resume, this nursing home also performed well in our long-term care area. In fact, we gave it a score of A- in the category. Long-term care ratings in this range generally require both around the clock care from nurses and aids, as well as quality routine healthcare services. Once we looked at the amount of care provided by aids and other staff, we then analyzed the nursing home's vaccination data. This nursing home vaccinated 95.06173 percent of its patients against pneumonia, which is better than the majority of nursing homes. Clearly, this place is doing something right in this area as it was able to keep its residents out of the hospital. In fact, it had less than one hospitalization per 1,000 long-term resident days, which is a remarkably low number.

Nurse Quality

This nursing home also received a very impressive nursing grade. In that area, we awarded this facility a grade of A-. Our nursing score is based on a handful of datapoints, but the primary one is the quantity of nurse hours spent with patients. This particular nursing home provided 0.5 hours of nursing care per resident per day. Finally, we also assessed several nursing quality-based metrics and this place excelled in some of these areas. With less than five percent of its residents sustaining pressure ulcers, it performed as well as any place the state in this category. This is generally a good indicator of quality nursing care. Pressure ulcers can generally be prevented by offering better nursing care, such as having a protocol of moving residents at least once a day.

Short-term Care Quality

The last area we assessed was this facility's weakest category. Nevertheless, even its worst category would likely be a highlight for most facilities. We gave it a strong grade of B for short-term care. Our short-term care grades are believed to be most critical for patients requiring a nursing home for rehabilitation. Rehabilitation generally utilizes higher levels of skilled nursing services. This includes not only nursing services, but also physical and speech therapy, as well as other variations of therapy. It does not look like this nursing home provided information about its staffing of registered nurses or physical therapists. Finally, we looked at the percentage of patients who were able to return home from this nursing home. We found that 5.3 percent of this nursing home's patients were able to return home.
