Facility Inspections
On top of faring well overall, this nursing home also earned a nearly flawless inspection report. Therefore, it earned one of our highest scores in that category with an A+. We take several aspects of a facility's inspection report into consideration in calculating our inspection grades. One of those factors is deficiencies. You should keep in mind that the severity of these deficiencies is usually more meaningful than the quantity of deficiencies, as some are relatively minor. While this nursing home had some minor dings on its report, it had zero severe deficiencies. Severe deficiencies are found in categories G, H, I, J, K and L. This tells you that CMS didn't consider any of the deficiencies on this facility's report to pose an imminent threat to patient health or safety. A couple relatively minor deficiencies are not necessarily something to panic about.
Short-term Care Quality
Contributing to its top-shelf profile, this nursing home also performed well in our short-term care area. In fact, we awarded it a grade of A for that category. In the area of short-term care, we strive to assess indicators of a nursing home's rehabilitation services. We look at a facility's skilled nursing services, including those performed by registered nurses and physical and occupational therapists. This nursing home provides more services with physical therapists and registered nurses than most nursing homes we looked at. This is usually a favorable sign. The final measure we looked at in this area is the percentage of patients who were able to leave the nursing home and return to the community. We found that it performed as well as just about any facility in New Jersey in this area with 58.8 percent of its patients returning home. Unfortunately, at most nursing homes, fewer than half of their short-stay residents are able to return home.
Nurse Quality
We also wanted to emphasize the fact that this facility received an impressive grade of A- in our nursing category. In computing our nursing scores, we assess both nursing hours and the training levels of those nurses. This facility provided 3.8 hours of nursing care per resident per day. Lastly, we also looked at a few quality measures in determining our nursing grades. This facility excelled in these areas, with excellent scores for minimizing its residents' major falls and pressure ulcers. These areas are generally reliable indicators of the quality of nursing care a nursing home provides.
Long-term Care Quality
The next area we rated was this nursing home's weakest area. However, even in its weakest link we still gave it a respectable grade of C in our long-term care category. In the area of long-term care, we weigh the amount of care offered by a nursing home, as opposed to more sophisticated services. On top of assessing the volume of care provided by nurses and other staff, we analyzed the percentage of residents vaccinated for pneumonia. This facility administered the vaccine to 97.28867 percent of its residents, which is more than the vast majority of nursing homes. Unfortunately, its hospitalization rate was less impressive. We found that this facility had 2.05 hospitalizations per 1,000 long-term resident days.
