Registered Staff Hours
Facility Inspections
One of the reasons this turned out to be a great nursing home is that it received an impressive grade in inspections. Inspections turned out to be its best category. In this category, we awarded this facility an A. Perhaps the most significant factor we look at in computing our inspection scores is deficiencies. These deficiencies are found on a nursing home's inspection reports. Places with better scores in this area typically dodged the more severe deficiencies involving health risks or even death. This place was assessed 3 deficiencies on its inspection report, but none of the deficiencies were considered to be severe. This tells you that the inspectors didn't consider any of the deficiencies to pose an immediate threat to resident health or safety. Finally, this facility had no substantiated complaints this year from residents, which is an excellent sign.
Short-term Care Quality
We also would like to draw your attention to the fact that this facility received a dominant grade of A- in our short-term care area. Our short-term care grades are meaningful for individuals needing rehabilitation. Rehabilitation typically mandates higher levels of highly-skilled nursing. Skilled nursing includes a broad range of nursing services, ranging from registered nurses to physical and respiratory therapists, as well as other variations of therapy. Unfortunately, we weren't able to locate registered nurse or physical therapy staffing data for this facility. Lastly, we looked at the number of residents who were able to return to the community from this facility. We found that 6.1 percent of this facility's patients returned home.

Long-term Care Quality
We also wanted to alert you to the fact that this nursing home was awarded a dominant score of A- in our long-term care category. When nursing homes receive this kind of score in long-term care it is a good sign for patient care and suggests that the place is well-staffed with nurses and aids. In addition to assessing the volume of care provided by aids and other staff, we also looked at the percentage of residents vaccinated against pneumonia. This nursing home gave the vaccine to 100 percent of its residents. Vaccines are vital to keeping patients out of the hospital. Lastly, this place was able to limit hospitalizations. In fact, it had less than one hospitalization per 1,000 long-term resident days, which is an impressively low number.
Nurse Quality
The next area we rated was nursing, in which this facility was awarded a grade of B. Believe it or not, this ended up being this nursing home's weakest area. A nursing home is doing something right when it's weakest score still rates higher than most other nursing homes. The nursing grade consists of quite a few subcategories, however, the main one is the quantity of nurse hours spent with patients. This nursing home provides 0.4 hours of nursing care per resident per day. Lastly, our nursing grades also factor in quality-based assessments, such as avoiding major falls. This place performed better than average in this area. This is often a good indicator that a nursing home has reliable quality controls in place. Major falls can typically be avoided if more nurses aids and better safety protocols are in place.
