Facility Inspections

Grade: A

One of the reasons this turned out to be a great nursing home is that it received a very impressive grade in inspections. In fact, inspections ended up being its best category. In that area, we awarded this facility an A. Our inspection scores are tied to several items found on the a nursing home's recent inspection reports. Facilities that receive favorable grades in this area typically have few deficiencies on those reports. Most importantly, these facilities should not have any severe deficiencies which are associated with risks to patient safety. This nursing home was hit with 6 deficiencies on its inspection report, but we were relieved to see that none of the deficiencies were considered severe. This means that the government inspectors did not consider any of the deficiencies to create an imminent threat to resident health or safety. A few minor dings are not necessarily the end of the world.

Nurse Quality

Grade: A-minus

Adding to its impressive resume, this nursing home also excelled in our nursing category. In fact, we awarded it a grade of A- for that category. Nursing grades are primarily associated with the nursing home's level of nurse staffing. This particular nursing home provided 0.4 hours of nursing care per resident per day. Lastly, we also assessed some nursing quality-based metrics in determining our nursing grades. This place performed very well in terms of minimizing its residents' pressure ulcers and major falls. We consider these areas to be good indicators of the quality of nursing care.

Long-term Care Quality

Grade: B-plus

The third area we looked at was long-term care. This facility received an impressive long-term care score, with a grade of B+ in this area. Long-term care grades in this range generally require both around the clock care from nurses and aids, as well as quality routine medical care. After looking at the quantity of care provided by nurses and other staff, we turned to the facility's vaccination records. This facility vaccinated 96.850395 percent of its residents for pneumonia, which is higher than the vast majority of nursing homes. Finally, this place was able to limit hospitalizations. It had less than one hospitalization per one thousand long-term resident days, which is an impressively low number.

Short-term Care Quality

Grade: B

The next area we assessed is short-term care. In this category, we gave this nursing home a favorable grade of B. Our short-term care scores are critical for prospective residents seeking rehabilitation. Rehabilitation generally requires more highly-skilled nursing services. This includes a broad scope of nursing services, spanning from registered nurses to physical and respiratory therapists, as well as other variations of therapy. Fortunately, it appear that this facility has registered nurses on staff. Not every facility employs these types of nurses. On the other hand, according to the data they provided, they do not appear to employ physical therapists. The last statistic we assessed in this area is the number of residents that ultimately returned home from the facility. We found that 4.2 percent of this nursing home's patients returned home as opposed to remaining at the nursing home on a permanent basis.
