Long-term Care Quality
We also found that this facility excelled in long-term care. We awarded them an impressive grade of A+ in this category. Long-term care ratings of this caliber generally require both 24/7 care from nurses and aids, as well as quality routine medical care. After considering the volume of care provided by aids and other staff, we then analyzed the facility's vaccination statistics. This facility vaccinated 87.08791 percent of its patients for pneumonia, which happens to be a bit less than we expected but still a reasonably acceptable percentage. The last datapoint we looked at was the nursing home's hospitalization rate. Here we found that this place had 2.18 hospitalizations per one thousand long-term resident days.
Facility Inspections
In addition, this facility received excellent government inspections in recent years. We gave them one of our better scores in that area, with an A-. Arguably the most important factor we consider in calculating our inspection ratings is deficiencies. Deficiencies are found on a nursing home's recent inspection reports. Facilities with higher grades in this category most likely avoided the more severe deficiencies involving health risks or even death. This facility was hit with 3 deficiencies on its inspection report, but none of the deficiencies were considered severe. This means that CMS did not consider any of these deficiencies to cause an immediate risk to patient health or safety. Finally, this facility had no substantiated complaints this year from residents, which is an excellent sign.
Short-term Care Quality
This facility's next best area ended up being its short-term care score, where it was given a B-. Our short-term care ratings are vital for people seeking rehabilitation. Rehabilitation typically mandates additional skilled nursing. This includes a vast scope of services, ranging from registered nurses to physical and occupational therapists, as well as other types of therapy. We were pleased to find that this nursing home employs both registered nurses and physical therapists. The same can't be said for all nursing homes. Finally, we assessed the number of residents who were able to return to the community from this nursing home. It performed decently in this area, with 47.7 percent of its residents returning home.
Nurse Quality
Turning to the final area, this facility was given a decent nursing score. While this wasn't nearly as good as many of its other grades, this is truly not a terrible score. Nursing grades are primarily associated with the facility's level of nurse staffing. This facility provided 3.5 hours of nursing care per resident per day. Lastly, we also weighed some quality-based assessments. This nursing home fared well in some of the quality measures we looked at. For example, in terms of the number of its patients suffering from pressure ulcers, this facility performed better than the national average. This is usually a good indicator that a nursing home has quality controls in place. Pressure ulcers can frequently be avoided with better nursing care.
