Short-term Care Quality

It should also be noted that this facility's short-term care score outpaced its overall grade. In fact, we awarded it a grade of B+ for short-term care, which is one of our better scores. This helped its overall score. Short-term care scores are crucial for prospective residents seeking rehabilitation. Rehabilitation typically utilizes higher levels of skilled nursing. This means a wide scope of nursing services, spanning from registered nurses to physical and speech therapists, as well as other types of therapy. We weren't able to locate information on registered nurse or physical therapy staffing for this nursing home. Lastly, we considered the number of patients who were able to return to the community from this facility. We found that 0 percent of this nursing home's residents returned home.

Facility Inspections

This facility's inspection grade also was quite a bit better than its overall grade. Due to a strong inspection report this year, it received one of our better scores in that category with a B. Arguably the most important factor we consider in calculating our inspection scores is deficiencies. These deficiencies can be found on a facility's inspection reports. Places with better grades in this category typically avoided the most severe deficiencies involving health risks or even death. Fortunately, although this facility had some minor dings on its inspection report, it had no severe deficiencies. Severe deficiencies are found in categories G through L. This tells you that the government inspectors didn't consider any of the deficiencies on this facility's report to pose an imminent threat to patient health or safety. We should note that deficiency-free inspection reports are rare in the industry.

Long-term Care Quality

The final area we graded is long-term care. We gave this nursing home a grade of C in that area. In forming our long-term care ratings, we quantify the facility's ability to maintain its permanent residents' health and quality of life. In addition to assessing the amount of care provided by nurses aids and other staff, we analyzed the percentage of residents vaccinated against pneumonia. Thankfully, this facility vaccinated 100 percent of its residents, which is a very respectable total. Finally, this nursing home was also able to limit hospitalizations. It had less than one hospitalization per 1,000 long-term resident days, which is an impressively low figure.
