Facility Inspections

One of the many reasons this ended up being a quality nursing home is that it received an A+ inspection grade. This is just about as good as it gets in this area. We take several aspects of a facility's inspection report into consideration in computing our inspection ratings. One key factor is deficiencies. It should be noted that the severity of these deficiencies is usually more important than the quantity of deficiencies, as some deficiencies can be quite minor. Although this nursing home had a few deficiencies on its inspection report, none of them were severe based on CMS' deficiency scale. Finally, this facility had no substantiated complaints this year from residents, which is an excellent sign.

Long-term Care Quality

We also would like to draw your attention to the fact that this nursing home was awarded a dominant grade of A in our long-term care category. Facilities that receive this kind of score in long-term care typically provide consistent around the clock care to make sure residents are kept in good health. Once we looked at the volume of care provided by nurses and other staff, we then analyzed the facility's vaccination records. This facility vaccinated 100 percent of its residents for pneumonia, which is much higher than most nursing homes. Clearly, this place is doing something right in this area as it was able to keep its residents out of the hospital. In fact, it had only 0.01 hospitalizations per one thousand long-term resident days, which is a remarkably low number.

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+. Nursing scores are heavily correlated with nurse staffing levels. This facility provided 0.4 hours of nursing care per resident per day. Finally, our nursing grades also factor in quality-based assessments, such as avoiding major falls. This nursing home performed well in this area. Avoiding major falls is typically a good indicator that a place has reliable quality controls in place. Major falls can often be prevented if more nurses aids and better safety protocols are in place.

Short-term Care Quality

In the last category we assessed, this nursing home was awarded an impressive grade grade of B+ in our short-term care category. With this score, the facility rounded out a very impressive profile. In the category of short-term care, we strive to evaluate indicators of a nursing home's rehabilitation services. We assess a nursing home's skilled nursing services, including the ones performed by registered nurses and physical, occupational and other therapists. Fortunately, it looks like this facility employs registered nurses. Not every facility employs these skilled professionals. On the other hand, based on the data this nursing home provided, it does not look like the facility employs physical therapists. The last metric we considered in this category is the percentage of residents who were able to leave the facility and return home. We found that 5.2 percent of this nursing home's patients returned home.
