Facility Inspections

On top of performing well in its overall grade, this facility performed at an even higher level in the area of inspections. In fact, it received a nearly flawless inspection report this year. As a result, it received one of our highest grades in that category with a score of A. We take several aspects of a facility's inspection report into consideration in determining our inspection grades. One of those factors is health deficiencies. It should be noted that the severity of the deficiencies is usually more important than the number of deficiencies, as some of these are relatively minor. This particular nursing home received 5 deficiencies on its inspection report. Finally, this facility had no substantiated complaints this year from residents, which is an excellent sign.

Long-term Care Quality

Adding to this facility's list of strengths, it also was given a top-shelf long-term care grade. We awarded them an impressive strong of A- in this category. If you are seeking anything other than short-term rehabilitation, you should take a close look at each nursing home's long-term care ratings. After looking at the volume of care provided by nurses aids and other staff, we then analyzed the nursing home's vaccination data. This nursing home vaccinated 92.83746 percent of its residents for pneumonia, which happens to be a few points less than we anticipated but still a respectable percentage. Fortunately, this place was able to keep its residents out of the hospital. While it had 2.06 hospitalizations per 1,000 long-term resident days, its risk adjusted statistic was better than most facilities due to it having some more complex patients.

Nurse Quality

This facility received even higher grades in the area of nursing. In fact, it received one of our highest grades in that category with a score of A-. Our nursing score assesses the nursing home's level of nurse staffing. We weigh both the levels of training of the nurses as well as the quantity of hours spent with patients. This particular nursing home provided 3.5 hours of nursing care per resident per day. Lastly, we also looked at some nursing quality measures in determining our nursing grades. This place performed very well in the area of minimizing its residents' pressure ulcers and major falls. We consider these areas to be good indicators of the quality of nursing care.

Short-term Care Quality

Turning to our last category, this facility was given a decent short-term care rating. Even though this wasn't as elite as a few of its other category grades, this is really not the end of the world. Our short-term care scores are arguably more meaningful for residents requiring rehabilitation from their nursing home. Rehabilitation typically requires additional highly-skilled nursing. This means not just nursing, but also physical and occupational therapy, as well as other types of therapy. Fortunately, this nursing home offers both physical therapists and registered nurses. Not all facilities offer both. The final datapoint we looked at in this area is the percentage of residents who who were able to eventually return home from the facility. It fared respectably with 45.5 percent of its residents returning home.
