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.

Grade: A

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.

Long-term Care Quality

Grade: B

This facility is also above average in the category of long-term care, where it was awarded a grade of B. It performed better than most facilities in this area. In a long-term care setting, the facility's primary objective is to maintain residents' quality of life and keep them safe. In addition to looking at the amount of care provided by aids and other staff, we looked at the percentage of residents vaccinated for pneumonia. This facility vaccinated 92.17391 percent of its residents. This is slightly lower than we were hoping for but still a decent percentage. Clearly, this nursing home is doing something right in this area as it was able to keep its residents out of the hospital. In fact, it had only 0.01 hospitalizations per 1,000 long-term resident days, which is an impressively low figure.

Facility Inspections

Grade: B

Turning to the last category we assessed, this facility earned a good grade in the area of inspections as well. In fact, we awarded it a grade of B for that category. These inspection scores weigh several factors, including deficiencies, substantiated complaints and federal fines. You can find more information about each of these issues by obtaining 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.
