Facility Inspections

Grade: A-plus

One of the many reasons this place ended up being a quality nursing home is that it received an A+ inspection grade. This is as good as it gets in this very important area. We take several aspects of a facility's inspection report into consideration in determining our inspection grades. One key factor is deficiencies. It should be noted that the severity of these deficiencies is arguably more meaningful than the number of deficiencies, as some deficiencies can be quite insignificant. This facility was hit with 5 deficiencies on its inspection report, but none were considered severe. This means that the government inspectors didn't consider any of these deficiencies to create an imminent risk to resident safety or health. Keep in mind that deficiency-free inspection reports are uncommon in the industry.

Short-term Care Quality

Grade: B-plus

This facility also received a favorable short-term care grade. In fact, we awarded it an above average grade of B+ in this area. Short-term care ratings are based on the facility's quantity of skilled highly skilled professionals. This includes a vast range of services, spanning from registered nurses to physical and respiratory therapists, as well as other variations of therapy. Fortunately, it looks like this facility employs registered nurses. Not all facilities employs these skilled professionals. On the other hand, based on the data this nursing home provided, they do not appear to employ physical therapists. The last datapoint we considered in this category is the number of residents that ultimately were able to return home from the facility. We found that 4.9 percent of this nursing home's residents returned home as opposed to remaining at the facility on a permanent basis.

Nurse Quality

Grade: B-plus

Adding to its profile, this facility also earned a grade of B+ for its nursing rating. This is a well above average score in this category. Nursing ratings are primarily tied to the facility's level of nurse staffing. This nursing home provides 0.3 hours of nursing care per resident per day. Finally, our nursing grades also factor in quality-based assessments, such as avoiding major falls. This place performed well in this area. Avoiding major falls is typically a good indicator that a facility has reliable quality controls in place. Major falls can often be avoided if more nurses aids and better safety protocols are in place.

Long-term Care Quality

Grade: B

The final category we looked at was long-term care. This nursing home was given an impressive long-term care grade this year, with a grade of B. This facility truly didn't have any weak categories. Long-term care ratings in this range generally require both 24/7 care from nurses and aids, as well as quality routine medical care. In addition to looking at the volume of care provided by nurses and other staff, we also looked at the number of residents vaccinated for pneumonia. This facility administered the vaccine to 100 percent of its residents. Vaccines are critical to keeping residents out of the hospital. Finally, this nursing home was able to limit hospitalizations. In fact, it had only 0 hospitalizations per 1,000 long-term resident days, which is an impressively low figure.
