Short-term Care Quality

Grade: A-plus

In addition to receiving a great overall grade, this facility also received an A+ short-term care grade. Short-term care grades are meaningful for prospective residents looking for rehabilitation. Rehabilitation typically mandates more highly-skilled nursing services. This includes a wide scope of services, ranging from registered nurses to physical and respiratory therapists, as well as other forms of therapy. Fortunately, it looks like this nursing home employs registered nurses. Not every facility employs these skilled professionals. However, according to the information this nursing home provided, they do not appear to employ physical therapists. Finally, we looked at the percentage of patients who were able to return to the community from this facility. We found that 6 percent of this nursing home's residents returned home.

Facility Inspections

Grade: A

Adding to this nursing home's impressive resume, we gave this nursing home a grade of A for our inspections rating. These inspection grades take several factors into consideration, including deficiencies and federal fines. You can find more information about each of these factors 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.

Nurse Quality

Grade: A

To complement its strong performance in other areas, we awarded this nursing home a grade of A for our inspections rating. In calculating our nursing ratings, we factor in both staffing levels and the levels of licensure of those nurses. This nursing home provides 0.5 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 place has reliable quality controls in place. Major falls can frequently be avoided if more nurses aids and better safety protocols are in place.

Long-term Care Quality

Grade: B-minus

The final area we assessed was long-term care. We awarded this facility an acceptable score in that area, with a B-. Even though this isn't as dominant as some of this nursing home's other grades, it is still not a major area of concern. Our long-term care ratings are more important for folks needing more traditional services related to activities of daily living. One of the statistics we considered on top of nursing hours was vaccinations. This nursing home provided the pneumonia vaccine to 92.30769 percent of its patients. Nevertheless, this nursing home excelled at keeping its patients out of the hospital. It had only 0 hospitalizations per one thousand long-term resident days, which is an impressively low figure.
