Facility Inspections
In addition to being a respectable facility overall, this place also excelled in the category of inspections, where it received an A. Few nursing homes performed better in this area. Perhaps the most important factor we consider in determining our inspection scores is deficiencies. Deficiencies are found on a nursing home's recent inspection reports. Facilities with higher grades in this category typically avoided the most severe deficiencies involving health risks or even death. This place received 3 deficiencies on its inspection report, but none of the deficiencies were considered to be major deficiencies. This means that the inspectors didn't deem any of these deficiencies to pose an immediate risk to patient safety or health. Keep in mind that deficiency-free inspections are uncommon in the industry.
Long-term Care Quality
This nursing home also was given a strong long-term care grade. As a matter of fact, we awarded it a B in this area, which is one of our better. When facilities receive this type of grade in this category it is typically a good sign for resident care and suggests that the nursing home is well-staffed with nurses and aids. On top of considering the amount of care provided by aids and other staff, we looked at the number of residents vaccinated against pneumonia. This facility administered the vaccine to 95.66075 percent of its patients, which is what we like to see. Pneumonia tragically can be a life or death illness for nursing home residents so we strongly prefer when a nursing home does not roll the dice on this issue. Finally, this facility was able to limit hospitalizations. Indeed, it had less than one hospitalization per one thousand long-term resident days, which is an impressively low figure.

Our last area is nursing, in which we awarded this facility a C in this area. Our nursing rating assesses a handful of subcategories, most of which are based on nursing hours. This nursing home averages just 0.4 hours of nursing care per patient each day, which is not an impressive total. Despite having low quantities of nursing care, this facility actually excelled in some of the quality measures we looked at. It performed well in the area of avoiding major falls and pressure ulcers. We consider these areas to be reliable measures of the quality of nursing care. In many cases, the quality of nursing care is every bit as important as the number of hours of care provided.
