Facility Inspections
One of the reasons this place ended up being a quality nursing home is it earned an A+ inspection grade. This is simply as good as it gets in this critical area. Arguably the most critical factor we consider in computing our inspection ratings is deficiencies. Deficiencies are found on a nursing home's recent inspection reports. Facilities with better grades in this category typically dodged the most severe deficiencies involving health risks or even death. 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. Finally, this facility had no substantiated complaints this year from residents, which is an excellent sign.
Long-term Care Quality
Adding to its superb profile, this facility also performed well in our long-term care category. In fact, we awarded it a grade of A in the category. Long-term care ratings in this range generally require both around the clock care from nurses and aids, as well as quality routine medical care. After considering the amount of care provided by nurses, we next considered the nursing home's vaccination statistics. This facility vaccinated 100 percent of its residents against pneumonia, which is an impressive figure. Pneumonia sadly is often a life threatening condition for nursing home residents so we prefer when a facility does not leave its residents vulnerable. Clearly, this facility is doing something right in this area as it was able to keep 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 figure.

This facility is also above average in the area of short-term care, where it received a score of B+. It outpaced most facilities in this area. In calculating these short-term care grades, we quantify the nursing home's skilled nursing services, such as those performed by registered nurses, speech therapists, physical therapists and other types of therapists. Our purpose is to create a scale for comparing the rehabilitation services of nursing homes. We were not able to track down information about this nursing home's registered nurse or physical therapy staffing. The last item we considered in this area is the number of residents that ultimately returned home from the nursing home. We found that 5.3 percent of this nursing home's residents returned home as opposed to remaining at the facility on a permanent basis.
Nurse Quality
Switching gears to the next area, this nursing home was given a very strong nursing score. Even though this isn't nearly as elite as some of its other category grades, this remains one of the more favorable scores we offer. In computing our nursing grades, we analyze both staffing levels and the skill levels of those nurses. This nursing home averages 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 nursing home has reliable quality controls in place. Major falls can often be prevented if more nurses aids and better safety protocols are in place.
