Short-term Care Quality

Grade: A

To pair with its strong overall grade, we awarded this facility an A for our short-term care grade. In the category of short-term care, we attempt to qualify indicators of a nursing home's rehabilitation services. We analyze a facility's skilled nursing services, including those performed by registered nurses and various 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 data they provided, it does not look like the facility employs physical therapists. The final measure we looked at in this category is the number of patients who ultimately were able to return home from the nursing home. We found that 6.3 percent of this nursing home's residents returned home as opposed to remaining at the facility on a permanent basis.

Nurse Quality

Grade: A-minus

This nursing home performed well in our nursing category. In fact, we awarded it a grade of A- for that category, which is one of our highest scores. When computing a nursing home's nursing rating, we consider the number of hours nurses are caring for residents and the level of licensure of those nurses. This particular nursing home provided 0.4 hours of nursing care per resident per day. Finally, we also assessed some nursing quality measures in determining our nursing grades. This facility performed very well when it comes to avoiding pressure ulcers and major falls. We consider these areas to be good indicators of the quality of nursing care.

Facility Inspections

Grade: B

Another strong feature for this facility is that it excelled in inspections, with a B in that category. It performed better than most nursing homes in this area. Inspection ratings take several factors into consideration, including deficiencies and substantiated complaints. You can learn more about each of these items by reviewing 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.

Long-term Care Quality

Grade: B-minus

Turning to our final area, this nursing home was given a respectable long-term care rating. While this wasn't quite as impressive as some of its other grades, this is really not a terrible score. Our long-term care scores are more important for people needing more traditional services related to personal care. Once we finished looking at the volume of nursing care, we turned to the nursing home's vaccination records. Frankly, we were a bit bothered by the fact that this nursing home vaccinated only 83.78378 percent of its patients for pneumonia. Nevertheless, this nursing home was able to keep its patients out of the hospital. In fact, it had only 0.01 hospitalizations per 1,000 long-term resident days, which is a remarkably low number.
