Facility Inspections

Grade: A+

On top of being an elite facility overall, this nursing home excelled in our inspections category, where it earned an A+. Few nursing homes fared as well in this area. These inspection scores take several factors into consideration, including deficiencies and substantiated complaints. You can find more information about each of these issues by reviewing copies of nursing homes' inspection reports. This particular nursing home had just a single deficiency on its inspection report and it was not one deemed to pose a threat to patient health or safety. Even some of the best nursing homes receive an occasional ding on their inspection report.

Short-term Care Quality

Grade: A

Contributing to its high-end profile, this nursing home also received a strong short-term care score, with a grade of A. With our short-term care category, we seek to craft a valuable gauge for rehabilitation services. In this process, we analyze the facility's levels of skilled nursing services, including both registered nurses and physical therapy, as well as occupational therapy. Fortunately, it looks like this nursing home employs registered nurses. Not every nursing home employs these skilled professionals. However, according to the data they provided, they do not appear to employ physical therapists. The last item we assessed in this area is the number of patients who returned home from the facility. We found that 6.3 percent of this nursing home's residents returned home as opposed to remaining at the nursing home on a permanent basis.

Nurse Quality

Grade: B-plus

In addition, this facility also received favorable nursing grades this year. In fact, we awarded them one of our better scores in that area, with a grade of B+. When computing our nursing ratings, we factor in both nursing hours and the training levels of those nurses. This nursing home provides 0.4 hours of nursing care per resident per day. Finally, we also looked at several nursing quality measures 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 the country in this category. This is generally a good indicator of quality nursing care. Pressure ulcers can often be prevented by providing better nursing care, such as by employing a system of moving residents more often.

Long-term Care Quality

Grade: B-minus

The next category we graded was long-term care, where this nursing home received a B-. This is this nursing home's worst area. This is nevertheless not a major area of concern. Our long-term care grades are more critical for those in need of more conventional services associated with personal care. One of the factors we considered after nursing hours is vaccines. This nursing home administered the pneumonia vaccine to 91.51515 percent of its residents. Nevertheless, this facility excelled at keeping its residents out of the hospital. Indeed, it had only 0 hospitalizations per one thousand long-term resident days, which is an impressively low number.
