Nurse Quality

Grade: A-minus

One of the reasons this turned out to be a great nursing home is that it received a very impressive nursing score. In that area, we awarded this facility an A-. Our nursing grade assesses the facility's nurse staffing levels. We factor in both the levels of licensure of those nurses and the number of hours spent with residents. This nursing home averages 0.4 hours of nursing care per resident per day. Finally, we also assessed some nursing quality measures in determining our nursing grades. This facility 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.

Facility Inspections

Grade: A-minus

Adding to its impressive category grades, we gave this facility a grade of A- for inspections. Perhaps the most significant factor we look at in calculating our inspection ratings is deficiencies. Deficiencies are found on a facility's inspection reports. Facilities with better scores in this category most likely dodged the more severe deficiencies involving patient abuse or death. This facility was assessed 5 deficiencies on its inspection report, but we were relieved to see that none of the deficiencies were considered to be severe deficiencies. This means that the inspectors didn't consider any of the deficiencies to be an imminent risk to patient safety or health. Keep in mind that deficiency-free inspections are uncommon in this industry.

Short-term Care Quality

Grade: B-minus

The third best category we gave this facility in any area came in the category of short-term care, where we awarded it a grade of B-. In calculating our short-term care ratings, we size up a nursing home's levels of highly skilled nursing, which includes registered nurses, physical therapists speech therapists and other types of therapists. This area is considered to be a fair measure of a nursing home's rehabilitation services. Fortunately, it looks like this facility has registered nurses on staff. Not all facilities employs these skilled professionals. However, based on the information they provided, they do not appear to employ physical therapists. The last statistic we considered in this category is the number of residents who were able to return home from the nursing home. We found that just 4.4 percent of this facility's patients returned home. Unfortunately, this was below average.

Long-term Care Quality

Grade: B-minus

The next category we scored was long-term care. This facility received a grade of B- for this category. In crafting our long-term care ratings, we quantify the facility's personal care services. One of the factors we considered on top of nurse's aid hours was vaccines. Fortunately, this nursing home administered the pneumonia vaccination to 98.8189 percent of its patients. This nursing home also excelled at keeping its residents out of the hospital. In fact, it had less than one hospitalization per 1,000 long-term resident days, which is a remarkably low figure.
