Facility Inspections

On top of receiving a great overall grade, this facility earned an A+ inspection rating. This score is based on the facility's recent inspection reports. An A+ in this area is one of the highest complements we can pay to a facility. Arguably the most critical factor we consider in computing our inspection grades is deficiencies. These deficiencies can be found on a facility's inspection reports. Nursing homes with better grades in this area typically dodged the most severe deficiencies involving patient abuse or death. Although this facility had a few deficiencies on its report, none of them were severe based on CMS' scale. Finally, this facility had no substantiated complaints this year from residents, which is an excellent sign.

Long-term Care Quality

Adding to its first-rate resume, this facility also received a superb long-term care score, with a score of A-. Facilities that receive this type of grade in this category typically provide consistent 24/7 care to ensure patients are well cared for. In addition to assessing the amount of care provided by nurses aids and other staff, we also looked at the number of residents vaccinated for pneumonia. This facility administered the vaccine to 99.86431 percent of its residents. Vaccines are vital to keeping residents healthy. The last statistic we looked at was the nursing home's hospitalization rate. We found that this place had 1.84 hospitalizations per one thousand long-term resident days, which is close to average in this area.

Short-term Care Quality

Moving on our next category, we gave this nursing home a grade of A- for its short-term care score. This is a very strong score. Our short-term care scores are based in part on the nursing home's quantity of highly-skilled nursing services. This includes a broad spectrum of services, spanning from registered nurses to physical and speech therapists, not to mention other variations of therapy. One reason for this facility's strong score in this category is that it provides more care with registered nurses to its residents than the average nursing home. The final item we assessed in this area is the number of residents who were able to leave the facility and return home. We found that it performed as well as just about any nursing home in New York in this area with 59.8 percent of its residents returning home.

Nurse Quality

The next area we scored was nursing, where this nursing home was given a C. Although this proved to be its lowest category score, this is nevertheless not a terrible score. We looked at the qualifications of nurses at the nursing home, in addition to the number of hours those nurses were with patients, in calculating our grade in this area. This facility provided just 3.2 hours of nursing care per resident daily, which is a relatively low figure. Nevertheless, more than one quarter of those hours were provided by registered nurses, which are one of the most highly trained levels of nurses. This is a high ratio of skilled nursing care, which we weight more heavily in our nursing scores. Lastly, our nursing scores also factor in quality-based assessments, such as avoiding major falls. While this nursing home did not have as many nursing hours as many other nursing homes we assessed, it was still better than average in the area of avoiding major falls.
