Facility Inspections

Grade: A-plus

In addition to being a great overall grade, this facility also received A+ health inspections in recent years. Its inspections were virtually flawless. Inspection grades take several factors into consideration, including deficiencies, substantiated complaints and federal fines. You can learn more about each of these issues by reviewing copies of nursing homes' inspection reports. Unfortunately, it doesn't look like we have deficiency data for this nursing home. Finally, this facility had no substantiated complaints this year from residents, which is an excellent sign.

Short-term Care Quality

Grade: A

To add to its top-shelf performance in other areas, we awarded this facility a grade of A for our short-term care rating. In the area of short-term care, we try to assess indicators of a nursing home's rehabilitation services. We look at a facility's skilled nursing services, such as the ones performed by registered nurses and physical therapists. Fortunately, it appear that this nursing home has registered nurses on staff. Not all facilities employs these skilled professionals. However, based on the data this nursing home provided, they do not appear to employ physical therapists. The last item we assessed in this area is the percentage of residents who ultimately returned home from the nursing home. We found that 5.7 percent of this nursing home's residents returned home as opposed to remaining at the nursing home on a permanent basis.

Long-term Care Quality

Grade: A-minus

The next category we assessed was long-term care. Adding to its impressive resume, this facility also excelled in this category. In fact, we awarded it a of A- for the area. Facilities that receive this kind of grade in long-term care tend to provide consistent 24/7 care to ensure patients are well cared for. After considering the amount of nursing care, we turned to the nursing home's vaccination data. This facility vaccinated 90.51724 percent of its residents for pneumonia. Although its vaccination rate was a bit lower than we had hoped, at least this facility was able to limit hospitalizations. Indeed, it had only 0.01 hospitalizations per 1,000 long-term resident days, which is an impressively low number.

Nurse Quality

Grade: B-plus

The fourth category we graded is nursing, where this facility received a grade of B+. This rounded out a first-rate report card. Not many nursing homes received a B+ or better in all four categories. The nursing score consists of quite a few components, but the most important consideration is the number of nurse hours spent with patients. This nursing home averages 0.5 hours of nursing care per resident per day. Finally, we also looked at certain nursing quality-based metrics in computing our nursing grades. These include minimizing residents' pressure ulcers and major falls. We look at these statistics as good indicators of the caliber of nursing care offered, since better care tends to reduce these problems.
