Facility Inspections
On top of being a strong nursing home overall, it also earned A+ government inspections in recent years. Its inspections are nearly perfect. We weigh several aspects of a nursing home's inspection report in computing these inspection grades. One key factor is health deficiencies. You should keep in mind that the severity of these deficiencies is arguably more important than the number of deficiencies, as some of these can be quite minor. 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
Compounding its strong accomplishments in other areas, we awarded this facility a grade of A for its long-term care grade. When nursing homes receive a grade in this range in long-term care it typically means it's well-staffed and is an overall good place to live on a permanent basis. In addition to very favorable nursing hour statistics, this facility's vaccination data was as good as it gets also. Indeed, this facility vaccinated 100 percent of its residents for pneumonia. Lastly, this place was able to limit hospitalizations. With only 1.52 hospitalizations per 1,000 long-term resident days, this nursing home has fewer hospitalizations than the average nursing home.
Nurse Quality
This facility also excelled in the area of nursing, where it received a grade of A-. Few nursing homes performed better in this area. The nursing rating weighs many datapoints, but the main one is the level of nurse hours spent with patients. This place provided 4.4 hours of nursing care per patient on a daily basis, which is among the more impressive totals in the country. A significant portion of those hours were provided by registered nurses, which are one of the most skilled levels of nurses. We are very impressed by both of these figures. On top of providing high levels of care, this place also performed well in several of the quality measures we assessed. In terms of the number of its residents suffering falls resulting in serious injury, this nursing home performed as well as any facility the nation.
Short-term Care Quality
The final area we looked at is short-term care, where this nursing home was given a B-. Even though this is its lowest category rating, this is still not a poor grade. In the category of short-term care, we endeavor to evaluate indicators of a nursing home's rehabilitation services. We analyze the nursing home's skilled nursing services, such as the ones performed by registered nurses and physical, occupational and other therapists. When we assessed this facility's nursing hours, we found it offered more care from registered nurses than most nursing homes. The final metric we looked at in this category is the number of patients who ultimately returned home from the nursing home. We found that just 35.7 percent of this nursing home's patients returned home. Unfortunately, this was below average.
