Facility Inspections
On top of receiving an elite overall grade, this facility earned an A+ inspection grade. This grade is based on its recent inspection reports. An A+ in this category is one of the best complements we can pay to a facility. Arguably the most critical factor we consider in calculating our inspection ratings is deficiencies. These deficiencies can be found on a facility's recent inspection reports. Facilities with better scores in this area most likely dodged the most severe deficiencies involving health risks or even death. We were not able to track down deficiency data for this facility. Finally, this facility had no substantiated complaints this year from residents, which is an excellent sign.
Long-term Care Quality
Adding to its elite accomplishments in other areas, we awarded this facility a score of A for our long-term care rating. Nursing homes that excel in this category tend to provide patients with closer supervision and stay on top of routine healthcare services. Once we looked at the quantity of care provided by nurses aids and other staff, we then analyzed the facility's vaccination record. This nursing home vaccinated 96.42857 percent of its residents for pneumonia, which is higher than the vast majority of nursing homes. Clearly, this place is doing something right in this area as it also excelled at keeping its residents out of the hospital. It had less than one hospitalization per one thousand long-term resident days, which is an impressively low figure.

Nurse Quality
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+. We looked at the skill-level of nurses employed by the facility, in addition to the quantity of time those nurses spent with patients, in calculating our score in this category. This nursing home provides 0.3 hours of nursing care per resident per day. Finally, we also looked at several nursing quality-based metrics and this facility excelled in some of these areas. With less than five percent of its residents sustaining pressure ulcers, it performed as well as any facility the state in this category. This is generally a good indicator of quality nursing care. Pressure ulcers can generally be prevented by offering better nursing care, such as by employing a policy of moving patients more frequently.
Short-term Care Quality
Turning to the fourth area, this facility was awarded an acceptable short-term care grade. Although this isn't quite as dominant as a few of its other scores, this is truly not a terrible score. In our short-term care assessment, we attempt to craft a valuable gauge for rehabilitation services. In doing so, we analyze the nursing home's levels of highly-skilled nursing services, including both registered nurses and physical therapy, as well as respiratory therapy. Fortunately, it looks like this nursing home employs registered nurses. Not every nursing home employs these types of nurses. On the other hand, according to the information this nursing home provided, it does not look like the facility employs physical therapists. The last measure we assessed in this category is the percentage of residents who ultimately returned home from the facility. We found that just 4.6 percent of this nursing home's residents returned home.
