Facility Inspections
In addition to being a respectable facility overall, this facility also excelled in the category of inspections, where it received an A. Few nursing homes performed better in this area. Perhaps the most important factor we look at in computing our inspection ratings is deficiencies. These deficiencies are found on a facility's inspection reports. Places with higher grades in this area most likely avoided the more severe deficiencies involving health risks or even death. Amazingly, this was one of the few nursing homes in the country that had no deficiencies whatsoever on its inspection report. This is very impressive. You really can't go wrong with a deficiency-free inspection report.
Long-term Care Quality
This nursing home also received an impressive long-term care score. In fact, we awarded them a B+ in this area, which happens to be one of our more favorable scores. Long-term care ratings of this caliber generally require both 24/7 care from nurses and aids, as well as quality routine medical care. In addition to offering elite levels of nursing care and other staffing, this nursing home provided the pneumonia vaccine to 100 percent of its patients. Vaccines are critical to keeping patients out of the hospital. Finally, we looked at the nursing home's number of hospitalizations. Although it had 2.2 hospitalizations per one thousand long-term resident days, its risk adjusted metric was close to the national average due to it having some more complicated patients.
Nurse Quality
The next highest grade we gave this nursing home in any area came in the category of nursing, where we gave it a grade of C. We scrutinized the skill-level of nurses working for the nursing home, as well as the number of hours those nurses spent with residents, in calculating our grade in this area. This place offers extremely high levels of nursing care, averaging 4.4 hours per patient per day. This is well above average. Lastly, this place performed well in some of the quality measures we assessed. In terms of the percentage of its residents suffering from pressure ulcers, this place outpaced the national average.
Short-term Care Quality
Our next category is short-term care, where we awarded this nursing home a C in that category. In computing our short-term care scores, we quantify the nursing home's skilled nursing services, such as those performed by registered nurses, occupational therapists, physical therapists and other types of therapists. The purpose is to formulate a barometer for sizing up the rehabilitation services of various nursing homes. This nursing home employs both physical therapists and registered nurses. Not all facilities employ these skilled professionals. Lastly, we considered the percentage of residents who were able to return home from this facility. This place performed respectably in this metric with 47.9 percent of its patients returning home.
