To go along with its favorable overall grade, we gave this nursing home an A for our inspections rating.

Facilities with better scores in this area most likely dodged the more severe deficiencies involving things like patient abuse. This particular nursing home had just a single deficiency on its inspection report and it was not one deemed to pose a threat to patient health or safety. Even some of the best nursing homes receive an occasional ding on their inspection report.

Long-term Care Quality

Grade: B-plus

Another strong feature for this nursing home is that it was awarded an above average long-term care score. Indeed, this wound up being its second best category grade. In this area, we gave this nursing home a grade of B+. In a long-term care environment, the primary objective is to keep patients healthy and safe. This is different than skilled nursing or short-term care where the goal is to rehabilitate residents. 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 gave the vaccine to 90.85714 percent of its patients. This is a few points below what we anticipated but still a respectable figure. Clearly, this nursing home is doing something right in this area as it was able to keep its patients out of the hospital. In fact, it had less than one hospitalization per one thousand long-term resident days, which is an impressively low number.

Finally, our nursing grades also factor in quality-based assessments, such as avoiding major falls. This facility performed well in this area. Avoiding major falls is typically a good indicator that a nursing home has reliable quality controls in place. Major falls can many times be prevented if more nurses aids and better safety protocols are in place.

Short-term Care Quality

Grade: B-minus

The last area we looked at was short-term care, where this nursing home was awarded a grade of B-. This was this facility's weakest category. This is nevertheless a middle of the pack score. Our short-term care grades are probably most important for residents in need of a nursing home for rehabilitation. Rehabilitation typically utilizes higher levels of highly-skilled nursing. This includes not just nursing services, but also physical and respiratory therapy, as well as other forms of therapy. We weren't able to track down information on registered nurse or physical therapy staffing for this nursing home. Lastly, we considered the percentage of patients who eventually returned home from this nursing home. We found that 5.2 percent of this facility's patients were able to return home. This figure was actually quite a bit below average.
