Nurse Quality

Grade: A-minus

One of the reasons this turned out to be a great nursing home is that it received a very impressive nursing grade. In that area, we awarded this nursing home an A-. We analyzed the levels of nurses working for the facility, as well as the number of hours the nurses were with patients, in computing our score in this area. This nursing home averages 0.4 hours of nursing care per resident per day. Finally, our nursing grades also factor in quality-based assessments, such as avoiding major falls. This place performed well in this area. Avoiding major falls is typically a good indicator that a facility has reliable quality controls in place. Major falls can many times be prevented if more nurses aids and better safety protocols are in place.

Facility Inspections

Grade: B-plus

Adding to its impressive category grades, we gave this facility an B+ for inspections. We take several aspects of a facility's inspection report into consideration in computing our inspection ratings. One critical factor is deficiencies. You should keep in mind that the severity of the deficiencies is usually more meaningful than the number of deficiencies, as some of these are relatively insignificant. Fortunately, although this nursing home had some minor dings on its report, it had zero severe deficiencies. Severe deficiencies are labeled as categories G through L. This means CMS did not consider any of the deficiencies on this facility's report to pose an imminent threat to patient health or safety. We should note that deficiency-free inspection reports are uncommon in this industry.

Short-term Care Quality

Grade: B

The third category we graded is short-term care. This nursing home was given an above average short-term care grade, with a B in this area. In determining our short-term care scores, we quantify the nursing home's skilled nursing services, including those performed by registered nurses, occupational therapists, physical therapists and other types of skilled professionals. Our objective is to devise a tool for comparing the rehabilitation services of various nursing homes. Fortunately, it appear that this facility has registered nurses on staff. Not all nursing homes employs these skilled professionals. However, according to the data they provided, they do not appear to employ physical therapists. Finally, we assessed the number of residents who who were able to eventually return home from this facility. We found that 5.2 percent of this nursing home's residents returned home.

Long-term Care Quality

Grade: B-minus

Switching gears to our fourth area, this nursing home was awarded an acceptable long-term care grade of B-. Our long-term care grade focuses on a facility's assistance with daily living rather than the highly skilled therapy or healthcare services that are critical to a rehabilitation facility. After looking at the quantity of care provided by nurses and other staff, we next considered the nursing home's vaccination record. We were disappointed to learn that this facility vaccinated only 72.36842 percent of its residents against pneumonia. Nevertheless, this nursing home was able to keep its patients out of the hospital. Indeed, it had only 0.01 hospitalizations per one thousand long-term resident days, which is an impressively low number.
