Registered Staff Hours
Facility Inspections
To pair with its strong overall grade, we awarded this place an A+ for our inspection category. Our inspection grades weigh several factors found on a nursing home's inspection report. One key criteria we weigh heavily is the number and severity of deficiencies. Nursing homes with higher grades in this area usually have few of these severe deficiencies. Unfortunately, it doesn't look like we have deficiency data for this facility. We would like to have more information about this facility. Without the deficiency related data, it ended up being difficult to evaluate the place in this category.
Nurse Quality
We also wanted to emphasize the fact that this facility received an impressive grade of A in our nursing category. Our nursing score is primarily based on a facility's nurse staffing. This nursing home provides 0.4 hours of nursing care per resident per day. Finally, we also assessed several nursing quality-based metrics and this place excelled in some of these areas. With less than five percent of its residents sustaining pressure ulcers, it performed as well as any place the nation in this category. This is generally a good indicator of quality nursing care. Pressure ulcers can often be prevented by offering better nursing care, such as by employing a protocol of turning a patient more frequently.

Long-term Care Quality
Moving on our third category, we gave this facility a score of A- for its long-term care score. This is a very strong grade. Facilities that do well in long-term care tend to provide patients with better supervision and stay on top of routine healthcare services. On top of looking at the volume of care provided by nurses and other staff, we analyzed the percentage of residents vaccinated against pneumonia. This nursing home provided the vaccine to 100 percent of its residents, which is very impressive. Pneumonia tragically can be a dangerous condition for nursing home residents so we strongly prefer when a nursing home does not leave this to chance. Lastly, this nursing home was able to limit hospitalizations. It had only 0.01 hospitalizations per one thousand long-term resident days, which is an impressively low figure.
Short-term Care Quality
In the last area, we gave this nursing home an A+ for its short-term care rating. This finished off a very favorable report card. In the category of short-term care, we endeavor to evaluate measures of a facility's rehabilitation services. We assess the facility's skilled nursing services, such as the ones performed by registered nurses and physical, occupational and other therapists. Fortunately, it looks like this facility 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. Finally, we considered the number of residents who eventually returned home from this facility. We found that 4.9 percent of this nursing home's residents were able to return home.
