Facility Inspections
The main reason this facility received a decent overall score is its excellent government inspections in recent years. We awarded it one of our higher grades in that category, with an A+. This is a much better grade than the place's overall grade, which was decent but not in the elite range. Perhaps the most significant factor we look at in calculating our inspection scores is deficiencies. These deficiencies can be found on a facility's inspection reports. Places with higher grades in this category most likely dodged the more severe deficiencies involving patient abuse or death. 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. Based on this, we had positive view of this nursing home's inspections.
Nurse Quality
Building on this facility's list of strengths, it also received an excellent nursing grade. We awarded them an impressive grade of B- in this area. Our nursing grade weighs several components, many of which are based on nursing hours. Based on the CMS data, this nursing home offers 3.5 hours of nursing care per resident per day. Finally, our nursing grades also factor in quality-based metrics, such as preventing major falls. This nursing home performed admirably in this subcategory. Avoiding serious falls is typically an indicator that a nursing home has quality controls in place. Many falls can be prevented if a facility provides enough nurses to assist its patients.
Short-term Care Quality
This facilities next best category is short-term care. We gave it a grade of C in this category. This is basically a middle of the road grade in this category. Our short-term care grade is often employed to gauge a facility's performance with rehabilitation In order to have highly graded rehabilitation services, facilities generally must offer better levels of skilled nursing. Skilled nursing includes registered nurses, physical therapists, occupational therapists and other highly trained professionals. One of this nursing home's strengths is registered nurse hours. We found that it offers more care from registered nurses to its residents than most facilities. The final item we considered in this area is the percentage of patients that eventually returned home from the facility. We found that just 38.5 percent of this nursing home's residents returned home.
Long-term Care Quality
This facility's least impressive category was long-term care, which is the final area we scored. In this category, we gave this facility a D. In a long-term care setting, the nursing home's 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 patients. After we finished looking at the quantity of care provided by nurses, we turned to the nursing home's vaccination statistics. We were pleased to find that this facility vaccinates 98.91304 percent of its patients against pneumonia. To our surprise, this nursing home was able to keep its patients out of the hospital. Indeed, it had just 0 hospitalizations per one thousand long-term resident days. Sadly, some of its other scores in this category weren't as favorable as these.
