Short-term Care Quality

Grade: A

One of the reasons this turned out to be a great nursing home is that it received a strong short-term care grade. This turned out to be its best category. In that category, we awarded this facility an A. Short-term care grades are commonly employed to judge a nursing home's performance with rehabilitation. In order to offer quality rehabilitation services, facilities generally need to have better levels of highly skilled nursing. Skilled nursing includes registered nurses, physical therapists, occupational therapists and other highly skilled individuals. Fortunately, it appear that this nursing home employs registered nurses. Not every nursing home employs these types of nurses. However, based on the data they provided, they do not appear to employ physical therapists. The final item we assessed in this area is the percentage of residents that ultimately returned home from the facility. We found that 6.1 percent of this nursing home's residents returned home as opposed to remaining at the nursing home on a permanent basis.

Nurse Quality

Grade: A

Adding to its strong resume, this facility also received an excellent nursing score, with a grade of A. In determining our nursing ratings, we assess both staffing levels and the skill levels of the nurses. This nursing home provides 0.5 hours of nursing care per resident per day. Lastly, we also looked at some nursing quality-based metrics in determining our nursing grades. This facility performed very well when it comes to avoiding pressure ulcers and major falls. We consider these areas to be good indicators of the quality of nursing care.

Facility Inspections

Grade: B-plus

We also wanted to point out this facility's nearly flawless inspections in recent years. We awarded them an impressive grade of B+ in this category. Our inspection scores are tied to items located in the a nursing home's recent inspection reports. Places that excel in this area have very few deficiencies on those reports. Most importantly, these facilities should not have any severe deficiencies which are associated with endangerment of patients. This place was hit with 5 deficiencies on its inspection report, but we were relieved to see that none of the deficiencies were considered to be severe. This means that the inspectors didn't deem any of these deficiencies to pose an imminent risk to resident safety or health. The fact that the deficiencies were relatively minor leaves us less concerned with this inspection report.

Long-term Care Quality

Grade: B-minus

Moving on to the fourth area, this facility received an acceptable long-term care score. While this wasn't nearly as dominant as many of its other scores, this is really a middle of the pack score. Our long-term care grades are based in part on the nursing home's volume of care. This includes a broad range of personal care services, ranging from assistance with activities of daily living to routine healthcare services. In addition to assessing the quantity of care provided by aids and other staff, we looked at the number of residents vaccinated against pneumonia. Thankfully, this facility provided the vaccine to 94.919785 percent of its residents, which is an above average statistic. This nursing home keeps its residents out of the hospital. Indeed, it had less than one hospitalization per one thousand long-term resident days, which is an impressively low number.
