Facility Inspections
Grade: A
To go along with its strong overall grade, we awarded this nursing home a grade of A for our inspections rating. Inspection grades account for several factors found on a facility's inspection reports. One of the most important criteria we look at is the quantity and severity of deficiencies. Facilities with higher grades in this category typically have few of these severe deficiencies. This nursing home was hit with 5 deficiencies on its inspection report, but we were relieved to see that none were considered to be severe deficiencies. This indicates that the government inspectors didn't consider any of these deficiencies to pose an immediate risk to resident safety or health. Keep in mind that deficiency-free inspections are rare in this industry.
Long-term Care Quality
Grade: A

When nursing homes receive a grade in this range in long-term care it generally means it has plenty of staff and is an overall good place to reside on a permanent basis. One of the criteria we considered on top of nursing hours was vaccines. This facility provided the pneumonia vaccination to 98.94012 percent of its patients. This is a great way to avoid unnecessary deaths for the elderly population. Clearly, this nursing home is doing something right in this area as it was able to keep its patients out of the hospital. Indeed, it had less than one hospitalization per one thousand long-term resident days, which is a remarkably low number.
