Facility Inspections
On top of performing well overall, this nursing home also received a nearly flawless inspection report. Therefore, it earned one of our highest scores in that area with an A+. Arguably the most significant factor we look at in computing our inspection ratings is deficiencies. These deficiencies can be found on a nursing home's inspection reports. Places with better grades in this category typically dodged the most severe deficiencies involving patient abuse or death. This facility received 5 deficiencies on its inspection report, but none of the deficiencies were considered to be severe. This indicates that CMS did not deem any of these deficiencies to cause an imminent risk to patient safety or health. Finally, this facility had no substantiated complaints this year from residents, which is an excellent sign.
Nurse Quality
One of the other reasons we graded this facility so highly is that it received a very impressive nursing rating. Nursing proved to be its second best category grade. In that area, we awarded this facility an A+. We looked at the licensure of nurses working for the nursing home, in addition to the number of hours the nurses were with patients, in calculating our score in this category. This nursing home provides 0.5 hours of nursing care per resident per day. Finally, we also assessed several nursing quality measures and this facility excelled in some of these areas. With less than five percent of its residents sustaining pressure ulcers, it performed as well as any nursing home the nation in this category. This is generally a good indicator of quality nursing care. Pressure ulcers can generally be avoided by offering better nursing care, such as having a system of turning patients more often.

Once we assessed the volume of care provided by nurses, we then looked at the facility's vaccination data. This nursing home vaccinated 100 percent of its patients for pneumonia, which is very impressive. Pneumonia is often a deadly condition for nursing home patients so we like it when a nursing home does not leave its residents vulnerable. Clearly, this facility is doing something right in this area as it was able to keep its patients out of the hospital. Indeed, it had only 0 hospitalizations per one thousand long-term resident days, which is a remarkably low figure.
Short-term Care Quality
In the last category we graded, this nursing home was given a very favorable grade of A- in our short-term care category. With this score, the nursing home finished off a straight A profile. In the area of short-term care, we endeavor to assess measures of a nursing home's rehabilitation services. We look at the nursing home's skilled nursing services, including those performed by registered nurses and physical therapists. Fortunately, it looks like this nursing home has registered nurses on staff. Not all nursing homes employs these types of nurses. On the other hand, according to the information they provided, it does not look like the facility employs physical therapists. The final statistic we assessed in this area is the number of patients who were able to leave the facility and return to the community. We discovered that 0 percent of this nursing home's residents were able to return home.
