Facility Inspections
While this facility's overall grade was not bad, it really fared well in the area of inspections. In fact, we awarded it a grade of A+ for that category, which is one of our best scores. Inspection grades weigh several factors, including deficiencies, substantiated complaints and federal fines. You can find more information about each of these items by obtaining copies of nursing homes' inspection reports. This facility received 3 deficiencies on its inspection report, but we were relieved to see that none were considered to be severe deficiencies. This tells you that the government inspectors didn't consider any of the 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.
Long-term Care Quality
Additionally, we also wanted to draw your attention to the fact that this nursing home was awarded favorable long-term care marks this year. We gave them one of our higher scores in this category, with a grade of B. This turned out to be the facility's second best score. Nursing homes that do well in long-term care typically are well-staffed and provide extensive hands on care to patients. On top of looking at the volume of care provided by nurses aids and other staff, we analyzed the percentage of residents vaccinated against pneumonia. This nursing home gave the vaccine to 100 percent of its residents. Vaccines are vital to keeping residents healthy. Lastly, this place was able to limit hospitalizations. With just 1.24 hospitalizations per 1,000 long-term resident days, this nursing home had less hospitalizations than the majority of nursing homes.
Short-term Care Quality
This nursing home's third highest area is short-term care. In that category, we awarded this nursing home a C. In calculating our short-term care ratings, we look at a nursing home's levels of skilled nursing services, which includes registered nurses, physical therapists speech therapists and other types of therapists. This rating is often a useful assessment of the nursing home's ability to rehabilitate patients. Fortunately, this nursing home offers both physical therapists and registered nurses. Not all facilities offer both. The final item we looked at in this category is the percentage of patients who were able to leave the nursing home and return to the community. It was respectable in this area with 45.9 percent of its patients returning home.
Nurse Quality
The next category we graded was nursing, turned out to be this facility's worst area. We gave this facility a D in this category. This really was one of the couple of dings in an otherwise impressive profile. Our nursing score assesses the facility's level of nurse staffing. We weigh both the levels of training of the nurses and the number of hours spent with residents. This nursing home offered just 3.2 hours of nursing care per patient per day. On top of receiving below average marks for nursing hours, this facility was a bit less impressive in some of the quality-based measures we looked at in computing our nursing ratings. We looked at the percent of patients sustaining pressure ulcers and found this facility was at approximately 150 percent of the national average in this metric. This is likely a bad sign when you consider that so many bed sores are believed to be preventable with better nursing care. This statistic really pulled down this facility's nursing score significantly.
