Facility Inspections
To go along with its decent overall score, we gave this nursing home a grade of A+ for its inspection grade. This is far better than its overall score. Perhaps the most important factor we look at in calculating our inspection ratings is deficiencies. Deficiencies are found on a nursing home's recent inspection reports. Places with higher scores in this category typically avoided the most severe deficiencies involving patient abuse or death. While this nursing home had a few deficiencies on its government inspection report, none of them were serious based on CMS' deficiency scale. A couple minor deficiencies should not lead you to cross a nursing home off your list.
Long-term Care Quality
This facility also received a positive score in our long-term care category. We gave this facility an above average grade of B in this category. Long-term care grades of this caliber generally require both 24/7 care from nurses and aids, as well as quality routine medical care. One of the statistics we considered on top of nursing hours was vaccinations. This facility administered the pneumonia vaccine to 96.09375 percent of its patients. This is a proven method to minimize unnecessary deaths and hospitalizations for the aged 65 and up population. Clearly, this nursing home is doing something right in this area as it was able to keep its residents out of the hospital. In fact, it had only 0.06 hospitalizations per 1,000 long-term resident days, which is a remarkably low number.
