Nurse Quality
In addition to being a quality nursing home overall, this nursing home really excelled in nursing, where it received an A. Few nursing homes performed better in this area. We assessed the levels of nurses at the facility, as well as the quantity of time the nurses worked with patients, in computing our grade in this area. This nursing home provided 4 hours of nursing care per resident per day. Roughly a quarter of those hours were provided by registered nurses, which are one of the most skilled levels of nurses. Both are impressive figures, which typically corresponds with higher quality care. Lastly, this facility also excelled in several of the quality measures we looked at. With fewer than five percent of its residents experiencing pressure ulcers, this place performed as well as any facility the state in this category. This is typically a good indicator that a place has reliable quality controls. Many pressure ulcers can be avoided by providing better nursing care and having a system of moving residents at least once a day.
Short-term Care Quality
Another one of this nursing home's quality category grades came in the category of short-term care. We gave them one of our stronger scores in that area, with a score of B+. Our short-term care grade is often used to gauge a nursing home's performance with rehabilitation. To have high-end rehabilitation services, facilities generally need to feature higher levels of highly skilled nursing services. These types of services include registered nurses, physical therapists, occupational therapists and other types of therapists. When we assessed this facility's nursing hours, we found it offered substantially more care from registered nurses than most nursing homes. The final datapoint we looked at in this category is the number of residents who were able to leave the nursing home and return home. It was respectable in this area with 47.5 percent of its patients returning home.
Long-term Care Quality
This nursing home also received a favorable long-term care grade. In fact, we gave it an above average score of B in this area. Facilities that receive this type of score in this category typically provide consistent around the clock care to make sure residents are well cared for. Once we assessed the amount of care provided by nurses and other staff, we turned to the nursing home's vaccination record. This facility vaccinated 91.47727 percent of its patients for pneumonia, which happens to be a few points lower than we anticipated but still a decent figure. The last statistic we looked at is the nursing home's hospitalization rate. Here we found that this facility had 2.52 hospitalizations per one thousand long-term resident days.
Facility Inspections
In the last area we looked at, we found that this nursing home earned a solid inspection report this year as well. As a result, it earned a decent score in our inspection category with a B-. These inspection ratings take several factors into consideration, including deficiencies and substantiated complaints. You can find more information about each of these factors by reviewing copies of nursing homes' inspection reports. This particular nursing home received 7 deficiencies on its inspection report. Overall, this is still a good inspection report, but we'd always recommend looking into any deficiencies you find troubling.
