Nurse Quality

Grade: A-minus

This nursing home received a strong overall grade as described above, but we especially wanted to point out its excellent nursing score. We awarded them an A- in this category. Our nursing score looks at the facility's nurse staffing levels. We consider both the levels of licensure of the nurses as well as the amount of time spent with patients. This particular nursing home provided 0.4 hours of nursing care per resident per day. Finally, we also assessed several nursing quality measures and this nursing home 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 the country in this category. This is generally a good indicator of quality nursing care. Pressure ulcers can often be avoided by offering better nursing care, such as by having a policy of moving patients even once per day.

Long-term Care Quality

Grade: A-minus

Contributing to this nursing home's list of accomplishments, it also was awarded a superb long-term care score. We gave them an elite grade of A- in this area. Facilities that do well in long-term care typically provide residents with closer supervision and stay on top of routine medical care. Once we finished looking at the quantity of care provided by nurses, we then analyzed the facility's vaccination records. This facility vaccinated 98.283264 percent of its residents against pneumonia, which is very impressive. Pneumonia tragically can be a deadly illness for nursing home residents so we strongly prefer when a facility does not leave its residents vulnerable. Finally, this place was able to limit hospitalizations. In fact, it had only 0.01 hospitalizations per one thousand long-term resident days, which is a remarkably low figure.

Facility Inspections

Grade: A-minus

Adding to its impressive category grades, we awarded this nursing home a grade of A- for our inspections rating. Inspection ratings take several factors into consideration, including deficiencies and substantiated complaints. You can learn more about each of these factors by obtaining copies of nursing homes' inspection reports. While this place had some minor dings on its report, it had no severe deficiencies. Severe deficiencies are ones labeled as categories G through L. This means 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.

Short-term Care Quality

Grade: B

The final category we analyzed was short-term care. This facility was awarded an above average short-term care score this year, with a B. This nursing home truly does not have any weaknesses. Short-term care grades are typically used to grade a facility's rehabilitation services. To have good rehabilitation services, nursing homes generally need to feature better levels of highly skilled nursing. These types of services include registered nurses, physical therapists, respiratory therapists and other highly trained professionals. Fortunately, it looks like this nursing home employs registered nurses. Not every nursing home employs these types of nurses. On the other hand, based on the data this nursing home provided, it does not look like the facility employs physical therapists. Lastly, we assessed the percentage of residents who were able to return to the community from this facility. We found that 5 percent of this facility's patients returned home.
