Facility Inspections

Grade: A

One of the reasons this turned out to be a quality facility is that it earned an impressive inspection grade. Inspections is its best category. In this area, we gave this facility an A. Arguably the most important factor we consider in determining our inspection grades is deficiencies. Deficiencies can be found on a nursing home's inspection reports. Facilities with higher grades in this area most likely dodged the most severe deficiencies involving things like patient abuse. Although this nursing home had some deficiencies on its government inspection report, none of them were serious based on CMS' deficiency scale. The fact that none of the deficiencies were severe leaves us less concerned with this inspection report.

Nurse Quality

Grade: B

This facility is also strong in the area of nursing, where it received a grade of B. It outperformed most nursing homes in this category. Our nursing rating is mostly based on a facility's level of nurse staffing. This particular nursing home provided 0.3 hours of nursing care per resident per day. Finally, our nursing grades also factor in quality-based assessments, such as avoiding major falls. This nursing home performed well in this area. Avoiding major falls is typically a good indicator that a facility has reliable quality controls in place. Major falls can frequently be prevented if more nurses aids and better safety protocols are in place.

Short-term Care Quality

Grade: B

Turning to our next area, this nursing home also earned a score of B for its short-term care rating. This is a well above average score in this area. In our short-term care assessment, we attempt to craft a valuable measure for rehabilitation services. In doing so, we assess a facility's offerings of highly-skilled nursing services, including both registered nurses and physical therapy, as well as speech therapy. Fortunately, it looks like this nursing home employs registered nurses. Not all facilities employs these types of nurses. On the other hand, according to the data they provided, they do not appear to employ physical therapists. The final metric we considered in this area is the percentage of residents who were able to leave the nursing home and return home. We found that 4.8 percent of this facility's residents were able to return home.

Long-term Care Quality

Grade: B-minus

The last area we looked at is long-term care, in which this nursing home was awarded a B-. Even though this ended up being its weakest category grade, this is still not a bad grade. With our long-term care rating, we look at the sheer quantity of services offered by a nursing home, as well as a few quality metrics. In addition to considering the quantity of care provided by nurses and other staff, we also looked at the number of residents vaccinated against pneumonia. This facility provided the vaccine to 100 percent of its patients. This place also excelled at keeping its patients out of the hospital. Indeed, it had only 0.01 hospitalizations per 1,000 long-term resident days, which is a remarkably low figure.
