Registered Staff Hours
Facility Inspections
One of the reasons this turned out to be a quality facility is that it received an impressive inspection grade. In fact, inspections turned out to be its best category. In that area, we gave it an A-. These inspection scores weigh several factors, including deficiencies and federal fines. You can learn more about each of these items by obtaining copies of nursing homes' inspection reports. 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. Even some of the best nursing homes receive an occasional ding on their inspection report.
Short-term Care Quality
This facility performed well in our short-term care category. Indeed, we awarded it a score of A- for that category, which happens to be one of our best grades. Our short-term care ratings are vital for people needing rehabilitation. Rehabilitation generally mandates more highly-skilled nursing. This means a wide scope of services, ranging from registered nurses to physical and respiratory therapists, as well as other forms of therapy. Fortunately, it looks like this nursing home has registered nurses on staff. Not every nursing home employs these skilled professionals. However, based on the information this nursing home provided, it does not look like the facility employs physical therapists. Lastly, we considered the number of patients that who were able to eventually return home from this nursing home. We found that 5.7 percent of this facility's patients returned home.

The third area we assessed was long-term care. This facility was given a very positive long-term care grade, with a grade of B+ in the category. Long-term care scores of this caliber generally require both 24/7 care from nurses and aids, as well as quality routine healthcare services. One of the statistics we considered in addition to nursing hours was vaccinations. This nursing home administered the pneumonia vaccination to 100 percent of its residents. This is a great way to avoid unnecessary deaths for the nursing home population. Lastly, this facility was able to limit hospitalizations. Indeed, it had only 0.04 hospitalizations per 1,000 long-term resident days, which is an impressively low number.
Nurse Quality
Turning to the fourth category, this facility was awarded a high-end nursing rating. This facility did not turn out to have any weak grades. There are numerous factors within this category. Many of the criteria reflect levels of nurse staffing. This particular nursing home provided 0.5 hours of nursing care per resident per day. Finally, our nursing grades also factor in quality-based assessments, such as avoiding major falls. This facility performed well in this area. Avoiding major falls is typically a good indicator that a place has reliable quality controls in place. Major falls can often be prevented if more nurses aids and better safety protocols are in place.
