Facility Inspections

In addition to faring well overall, this nursing home also earned nearly flawless government inspections. As a result, it received one of our highest grades in that category with an A+. Arguably the most important factor we look at in determining our inspection ratings is deficiencies. Deficiencies are found on a facility's inspection reports. Nursing homes with higher grades in this area typically avoided the most severe deficiencies involving patient abuse or death. Unfortunately, it does not look like we have deficiency data for this nursing home. Finally, this facility had no substantiated complaints this year from residents, which is an excellent sign.

Short-term Care Quality

Another one of this nursing home's impressive category scores came in the category of short-term care. We gave them one of our better scores in that area, with a grade of B+. In determining these short-term care scores, we analyze the nursing home's skilled nursing services, such as those performed by registered nurses, speech therapists, physical therapists and other types of skilled professionals. The objective is to create a tool for comparing the rehabilitation services of various facilities. Fortunately, it looks like this nursing home employs registered nurses. Not all nursing homes employs these types of nurses. On the other hand, based on the data they provided, they do not appear to employ physical therapists. Finally, we looked at the percentage of residents that returned home from this nursing home. We found that 5.6 percent of this facility's patients were able to return home.

Long-term Care Quality

This facility is also strong in the category of long-term care, where it was given a score of B+. It outpaced most nursing homes in this area. When facilities receive this type of score in long-term care it is typically a good sign for patient care and suggests that the facility is well-staffed with nurses aids. In addition to looking at the quantity of care provided by nurses and other staff, we also looked at the percentage of residents vaccinated for pneumonia. This facility vaccinated 96.75676 percent of its residents, which is more than the majority of nursing homes. Clearly, this facility is doing something right in this area as it was able to keep its patients out of the hospital. It had only 0.02 hospitalizations per one thousand long-term resident days, which is an impressively low number.

Nurse Quality

The next area we graded was nursing. In that category, we awarded this nursing home an acceptable grade of B-. This turned out to be this facility's worst area. Our nursing rating analyzes many subcategories, however, the most important consideration is the number of nurse hours spent with patients. This facility averages 0.3 hours of nursing care per patient each day, which is well below average. Lastly, despite not having the highest total nursing hours, this place performed admirably in the area of preventing major falls. This is often a reliable indicator that a nursing home has quality controls in place.
