Awards
Registered Staff Hours
Nurse Quality
We also wanted to emphasize the fact that this facility excelled in our nursing rating. We awarded them an impressive grade of A+ in this category. Our nursing rating analyzes many subcategories, but the primary one is the quantity of nurse hours spent with patients. This nursing home provides 0.5 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 place has reliable quality controls in place. Major falls can frequently be avoided if more nurses aids and better safety protocols are in place.
Facility Inspections
This facility also received an A+ inspection score, making it one of the few nursing homes to receive multiple A+'s in our category grades. This grade is based on the nursing home's inspection reports. An A+ in this category is one of the highest complements we can pay to a nursing home. Inspection scores take several factors into consideration, including deficiencies, substantiated complaints and federal fines. You can learn more about each of these items by obtaining copies of nursing homes' inspection reports.

Long-term Care Quality
The third category we analyzed was long-term care. This nursing home also was given an A+ long-term care grade, rendering it one of the few facilities to receive more than one A+ category grades. Nursing homes that excel in this category typically provide residents with more supervision and stay on top of routine medical care. On top of assessing the quantity of care provided by nurses and other staff, we analyzed the number of residents vaccinated for pneumonia. This nursing home vaccinated 99.354836 percent of its patients, which is an impressive figure. Pneumonia tragically can be a dangerous ailment for nursing home patients so we prefer when a nursing home does not roll the dice on this issue. Clearly, this nursing home is doing something right in this area as it was able to keep its residents out of the hospital. Indeed, it had less than one hospitalization per one thousand long-term resident days, which is a remarkably low number.
Short-term Care Quality
In the last category, this nursing home also received a first-rate short-term care grade, with an A-. This topped off a very favorable profile. In calculating these short-term care scores, we look at the facility's skilled nursing services, including those performed by registered nurses, occupational therapists, physical therapists and other types of skilled professionals. Our goal is to formulate a measure for comparing the rehabilitation services of different nursing homes. Fortunately, it looks like this nursing home employs registered nurses. Not every nursing home employs these types of nurses. On the other hand, according to the information this nursing home provided, it does not look like the facility employs physical therapists. Finally, we considered the percentage of residents who were able to return home from this facility. We found that 5.4 percent of this nursing home's patients were able to return home.
