Facility Inspections

We also wanted to point out that this facility has received near flawless inspections in recent years. We awarded them an impressive grade of A+ in this area. Inspection grades take several factors into consideration, including deficiencies and substantiated complaints. You can find more information about each of these items by reviewing copies of nursing homes' inspection reports. While this facility had some minor dings on its inspection report, it had zero severe deficiencies. Severe deficiencies are those labeled as categories G through L. This means that CMS did not deem any of the deficiencies on this facility's report to pose an imminent threat to patient safety or health. Finally, this facility had no substantiated complaints this year from residents, which is an excellent sign.

Nurse Quality

We also wanted to emphasize the fact that this facility received an impressive grade of A- in our nursing category. Nursing grades are primarily tied to a facility's level of nurse staffing. This nursing home averages 0.3 hours of nursing care per resident per day. Finally, we also assessed several nursing quality measures 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 nursing home Michigan in this category. This is generally a good indicator of quality nursing care. Pressure ulcers can many times be prevented by providing better nursing care, such as by having a policy of turning a resident more frequently.

Short-term Care Quality

Turning to the next category, this facility also received a score of B+ for its short-term care rating. This is an above average score in this category. Our short-term care ratings are probably most meaningful for residents requiring rehabilitation from their nursing home. Rehabilitation generally utilizes additional highly-skilled nursing services. Skilled nursing includes not merely nursing services, but also physical and occupational therapy, as well as other variations of therapy. Fortunately, it looks like this facility employs registered nurses. Not all nursing homes employs these types of nurses. However, based on the information this nursing home provided, they do not appear to employ physical therapists. Finally, we looked at the number of residents that ultimately were able to return home from this nursing home. We found that 0 percent of this facility's patients were able to return home.

Long-term Care Quality

The next area we scored was long-term care. This facility received a favorable nursing rating in our assessment, with a B. While this is not as strong as many of its other grades, this is still one of our more impressive scores in that area. Nursing homes that excel in long-term care typically provide residents with more supervision and stay on top of routine medical care. After assessing the volume of care provided by nurses and other staff, we turned to the nursing home's vaccination records. This facility vaccinated 100 percent of its residents against pneumonia. Vaccines are vital to keeping residents healthy. Lastly, this facility was able to limit hospitalizations. In fact, it had less than one hospitalization per one thousand long-term resident days, which is an impressively low number.
