Facility Inspections
In addition to being a great facility overall, it also earned A+ health inspections in recent years. Its inspections were virtually flawless. Inspection ratings take several factors into consideration, including deficiencies and federal fines. You can learn more about each of these issues by reviewing copies of nursing homes' inspection reports. 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. Finally, this facility had no substantiated complaints this year from residents, which is an excellent sign.
Short-term Care Quality
This facility received high marks in the area of short-term care. As a result, it was given one of our most impressive grades in that area with a score of A+. Short-term care grades are often used to judge a facility's rehabilitation services. In order to offer highly scored rehabilitation services, nursing homes generally must offer higher levels of skilled nursing services. These types of services include registered nurses, physical therapists, occupational therapists and other licensed professionals. Fortunately, this nursing home offers both physical therapists and registered nurses. Not all facilities offer both. The last statistic we considered in this area is the number of patients who ultimately returned home from the facility. We found that 7 percent of this nursing home's patients returned home as opposed to remaining at the facility on a permanent basis.

Nurse Quality
This nursing home also received an A+ nursing grade, making it one of the few nursing homes to receive multiple A+ category grades. Our nursing score focuses on the facility's nurse staffing levels. We look at both the levels of training of the nurses as well as the number of hours spent with residents. This facility provided 0.7 hours of nursing care per resident per day. Finally, we also assessed several nursing quality-based metrics and this place excelled in some of these areas. With less than five percent of its residents sustaining pressure ulcers, it performed as well as any nursing home New Jersey in this category. This is generally a good indicator of quality nursing care. Pressure ulcers can many times be avoided by providing better nursing care, such as by employing a protocol of moving a patient at least once a day.
Long-term Care Quality
Moving on to the fourth area, this facility also excelled in our long-term care category. We gave it an A in that category. This completed truly elite profile. For long-term care residents, the nursing home's primary objective is to maintain patients' quality of life and keep them safe. One of the criteria we considered on top of nurse's aid hours is vaccines. Unfortunately, it does not appear that this nursing home provided vaccination data. Clearly, this facility is doing something right in this area as it was able to keep its residents out of the hospital. It had less than one hospitalization per 1,000 long-term resident days, which is a remarkably low number.
