Facility Inspections

Grade: A-plus

One of the many reasons this place turned out to be a quality nursing home is that it received an A+ in our inspections category. This is as good as it gets in this category. Inspection ratings are based on several pieces of information located in the a nursing home's recent inspection reports. Places that score well in this area typically have few deficiencies on their reports. Most importantly, these nursing homes should not have any severe deficiencies which are associated with risks to patient safety. Although this place had a few deficiencies on its report, none of them were serious based on CMS' deficiency scale. A few relatively minor dings are not something to panic about.

Short-term Care Quality

Grade: A-plus

We also gave this nursing home a score of A+ for its short-term care grade. In calculating our short-term care ratings, we look at a nursing home's levels of highly skilled nursing, which includes registered nurses, physical therapists occupational therapists and other highly trained professionals. This grade is considered to be a solid assessment of the facility's rehabilitation. Fortunately, it looks like this nursing home employs registered nurses. Not every facility employs these types of nurses. However, according to the data this nursing home provided, they do not appear to employ physical therapists. Lastly, we considered the number of patients who who were able to eventually return home from this facility. We found that 5.6 percent of this facility's patients returned home.

Nurse Quality

Grade: A

We also wanted to emphasize the fact that this facility received an impressive grade of A in our nursing category. There are several criteria included in this category. Most of these criteria relate to staffing levels. This nursing home averages 0.5 hours of nursing care per resident per day. Lastly, we also assessed some nursing quality measures in determining our nursing grades. This nursing home performed very well in terms of minimizing its residents' major falls and pressure ulcers. We consider these areas to be good indicators of the quality of nursing care.

Long-term Care Quality

Grade: B-minus

Turning to our final area, this nursing home was awarded a respectable long-term care score. Although this wasn't nearly as good as a few of its other category grades, this is truly not a bad grade. In a long-term care environment, the primary goal is to keep patients healthy and safe. This is different than skilled nursing or short-term care where the goal is to rehabilitate residents. After assessing the quantity of care provided by nurses aids and other staff, we next considered the facility's vaccination records. We were optimistic to discover that this nursing home vaccinated 100 percent of its residents for pneumonia. This facility keeps its patients out of the hospital. In fact, it had less than one hospitalization per one thousand long-term resident days, which is a remarkably low number.
