Facility Inspections

Grade: A-plus

On top of receiving an elite overall rating, this nursing home received an A+ inspection score. This grade is based on the facility's recent inspection reports. An A+ in this category is one of the best complements we can pay to a facility. Perhaps the most critical factor we consider in calculating our inspection ratings is deficiencies. These deficiencies are found on a nursing home's inspection reports. Places with higher scores in this area most likely avoided the more severe deficiencies involving things like patient abuse. 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. Finally, this facility had no substantiated complaints this year from residents, which is an excellent sign.

Long-term Care Quality

Grade: A

This facility also fared very well in the area of long-term care, where we awarded it a score of A. Not many facilities fared better in this category. When nursing homes receive this type of score in this category it is a good sign for patient care and suggests that the nursing home is well-staffed with nurses aids. Once we looked at the amount of care provided by aids and other staff, we turned to the facility's vaccination data. This nursing home vaccinated 95.588234 percent of its patients for pneumonia. Vaccines are critical to keeping patients healthy. Finally, this nursing home was able to limit hospitalizations. Indeed, it had only 0.02 hospitalizations per one thousand long-term resident days, which is an impressively low number.

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+. Nursing ratings are heavily correlated with quantity of nursing care available. This facility provided 0.5 hours of nursing care per resident per day. Finally, we also looked at some nursing quality-based metrics in determining our nursing grades. This nursing home performed very well in terms of minimizing its residents' major falls and pressure ulcers. We consider these areas to be good indicators of the quality of nursing care.

Short-term Care Quality

Grade: B

The last area we scored was short-term care, in which this nursing home received a B. This actually was this nursing home's least impressive area. A nursing home could be doing a lot worse when their weakest grade still is better than most nursing homes. In determining our short-term care grades, we look at the facility's levels of highly skilled nursing, which includes registered nurses, physical therapists speech therapists and other highly trained professionals. This area is more often than not a fair assessment of a nursing home's rehabilitation services. Fortunately, it looks like this nursing home employs registered nurses. Not all facilities employs these types of nurses. On the other hand, based on the data they provided, they do not appear to employ physical therapists. The final item we assessed in this area is the number of patients who were able to leave the nursing home and return to the community. We found that 0 percent of this facility's residents were able to return home.
