The last category we assessed was nursing, where this nursing home was awarded a grade of A-. This wrapped up an elite report card. Not many facilities received an A- or better in every category. Our nursing rating assesses the nursing home's level of nurse staffing. We look at both the levels of training of the nurses as well as the amount of time spent with patients. This nursing home provides 0.6 hours of nursing care per resident per day. Finally, we also assessed some nursing quality-based metrics in determining our nursing grades. This nursing home performed very well in terms of avoiding major falls and pressure ulcers. We consider these areas to be good indicators of the quality of nursing care.
