Facility Inspections
The primary reason this turned out to be a decent nursing home is that it received an elite inspection grade. Its inspection score was far superior to its overall grade. In the inspections category, we gave it a grade of A. Arguably the most important factor we consider in calculating our inspection grades is deficiencies. These deficiencies can be found on a nursing home's recent inspection reports. Nursing homes with better grades in this category typically dodged the most severe deficiencies involving things like patient abuse. 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. Based on this, we had a generally positive view of this nursing home's recent inspections.
Short-term Care Quality
In addition, we awarded this nursing home a grade of B in our short-term care category. This happens to be one of our higher scores. In the category of short-term care, we attempt to qualify indicators of a nursing home's rehabilitation services. We look at the facility's skilled nursing services, including those performed by registered nurses and physical, occupational and other therapists. When we looked at this facility's physical therapist hours, we found it offered more hours of physical therapy per day to its residents than most nursing homes. Lastly, we looked at the percentage of residents who were able to return to the community from this nursing home. We found that it outperformed the majority of facilities in the country in this area with 51.1 percent of its residents able to return home. This is a better rate than most nursing homes.
Nurse Quality
Another strength of this nursing home is its favorable grade in nursing. We gave them one of our better scores in that area, with a grade of D. There are a host of datapoints within this grade. Most of the factors relate to the quantity and quality of nurse staffing. With just 2.9 hours of nursing care per resident per day, this place's nurse staffing levels were significantly below average. In addition to receiving below average marks for nursing hours, this place was a bit less impressive in some of the quality-based metrics we looked at in computing our nursing scores. We looked at the percent of patients experiencing pressure ulcers and found this place was at roughly 1.5 times the national average in this metric.
Long-term Care Quality
This facility's least impressive area was long-term care, which is the final area we analyzed. In this area, we awarded this nursing home a D. If you are looking for services other than short-term rehabilitation, you should take a close look at long-term care grades. After looking at the amount of care provided by nurses aids and other staff, we turned to the facility's vaccination record. We were pleased to discover that this facility vaccinated 100 percent of its patients for pneumonia. Finally, we looked at its number of hospitalizations. We found that this facility had 2.48 hospitalizations per 1,000 long-term resident days. Unfortunately, this figure is far less impressive than its vaccination record.
