Short-term Care Quality

Grade: A-minus

On top of earning a strong overall grade, this nursing home performed well in short-term care. In fact, we awarded it an A- for that category, which is one of our highest grades. Our short-term care ratings are important for prospective residents in need of rehabilitation. Rehabilitation usually requires more highly-skilled nursing services. Skilled nursing includes a vast range of services, spanning from registered nurses to physical and occupational therapists, as well as other forms of therapy. Fortunately, it appear that this nursing home has registered nurses on staff. Not all nursing homes employs these types of nurses. On the other hand, based on the information they provided, they do not appear to employ physical therapists. Finally, we looked at the number of patients who were able to return to the community from this nursing home. We found that 5.6 percent of this facility's patients returned home.

Nurse Quality

Grade: B

Adding to its impressive profile, this facility also excelled in our nursing category. In fact, we awarded it a grade of B for that category. When calculating our nursing ratings, we assess both staffing levels and the training levels of those nurses. This nursing home provides 0.4 hours of nursing care per resident per day. Finally, we also assessed several nursing quality measures and this nursing home excelled in some of these areas. With less than five percent of its residents sustaining pressure ulcers, it performed as well as any facility Illinois 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 by employing a protocol of moving residents more often.

Facility Inspections

Grade: B

This nursing home earned a B for its inspections score. This is an above average score in this category. Inspection ratings weigh a host of factors found on a facility's inspection report. One key criteria we weigh heavily is the quantity and severity of deficiencies. Nursing homes with higher scores in this area usually have few severe deficiencies. This facility was assessed 6 deficiencies on its inspection report, but we were relieved to see that none of the deficiencies were considered to be severe deficiencies. This indicates that CMS didn't deem any of these deficiencies to create an immediate risk to patient safety or health. A few relatively minor deficiencies are not necessarily something to panic about.

Long-term Care Quality

Grade: B-minus

The next category we analyzed was long-term care. We gave it a grade of B- in that area. This is a decent grade in this category. For residents in need of a permanent residence as opposed to rehabilitation, long-term care is an important category. After assessing the volume of care provided by nurses aids and other staff, we turned to the facility's vaccination statistics. This nursing home vaccinated 100 percent of its patients for pneumonia, which is higher than the vast majority of nursing homes. Finally, this facility was also able to limit hospitalizations. Indeed, it had less than one hospitalization per one thousand long-term resident days, which is a remarkably low figure.
