Facility Inspections
To go along with its strong overall grade, we awarded this nursing home a grade of A+ for our inspections rating. These inspection grades weigh several factors, including deficiencies and federal fines. You can learn more about each of these factors by obtaining copies of nursing homes' inspection reports. This facility received 7 deficiencies on its inspection report, but fortunately none of the deficiencies were considered to be severe. This means that the inspectors didn't deem any of these deficiencies to cause an imminent risk 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
This facility also fared very well in the category of short-term care, where it received a score of A-. Not many facilities received a better grade in this category. In determining these short-term care ratings, we quantify the facility's skilled nursing services, such as those performed by registered nurses, speech therapists, physical therapists and other types of skilled professionals. The objective is to devise a barometer for comparing the rehabilitation services of different nursing homes. One reason for this place's strong grade in this area is it offers more care from registered nurses to its patients than the average nursing home. The final statistic we looked at in this category is the percentage of residents who were able to leave the nursing home and return home. It was above average in this area with 54.3 percent of its residents returning home.
Nurse Quality
Another one of this facility's impressive category grades came in the area of nursing care. We awarded them one of our better scores in that area, with a grade of B+. When calculating our nursing grades, we assess both the number of hours nurses spend with residents and the levels of licensure of the nurses. This place provided 3.8 hours of nursing care per resident daily. About a quarter of those hours were provided by registered nurses, which are one of the most skilled levels of nurses. This is an impressive percentage of skilled nursing care. We weight these hours performed by skilled nurses more in determining our nursing ratings. Lastly, we also looked at certain nursing quality-based metrics in computing our nursing grades. These include minimizing residents' pressure ulcers and major falls. We view these datapoints as reliable indicators of the quality of nursing care being provided, since better care tends to reduce these problems.
Long-term Care Quality
Switching gears to the last category, this nursing home also performed admirably in the long-term care category. We gave it a B+ for this area. This rounded out a first-rate profile. Long-term care grades of this caliber generally require both 24/7 care from nurses and aids, as well as quality routine medical care. Once we looked at the volume of care provided by nurses aids and other staff, we next considered the nursing home's vaccination records. This nursing home vaccinated 91.60305 percent of its patients against pneumonia, which happens to be a bit below what we expected but still a respectable percentage. Fortunately, this place excelled at keeping its patients out of the hospital. Indeed, it had only 1.03 hospitalizations per one thousand long-term resident days, which is a substantially lower hospitalization rate than most nursing homes.
