Facility Inspections
To pair with its decent overall grade, we gave this facility an A- for its inspection grade. This score is far better than its overall score. Arguably the most significant factor we consider in computing our inspection ratings is deficiencies. These deficiencies are found on a nursing home's inspection reports. Facilities with higher grades in this category typically dodged the most severe deficiencies involving things like patient abuse. This particular nursing home received 5 deficiencies on its inspection report. Overall, this is still a good inspection report, but we'd always recommend looking into any deficiencies you find troubling.
Nurse Quality
One of the other reasons we graded this facility so highly is that it received a very impressive nursing score. In that area, we awarded this facility an B. We looked at the levels of nurses working for the facility, in addition to the number of hours those nurses worked with patients, in calculating our grade in this area. This facility provided 0.4 hours of nursing care per resident per day. Finally, we also looked at several nursing quality-based metrics and this nursing home excelled in some of these areas. With less than five percent of its residents sustaining pressure ulcers, it performed as well as any facility Iowa in this category. This is generally a good indicator of quality nursing care. Pressure ulcers can generally be prevented by offering better nursing care, such as by employing a policy of turning patients at least once a day.

Short-term Care Quality
The third area we assessed was short-term care, where this facility received a grade of B- in this area. Short-term care grades are commonly employed to score a nursing home's rehabilitation services In order to have high-end rehabilitation services, nursing homes generally need to provide better levels of highly skilled nursing. Skilled nursing includes registered nurses, physical therapists, respiratory therapists and other types of therapists. Unfortunately, it doesn't look like this facility submitted information on registered nurse or physical therapist staffing. Finally, we considered the percentage of residents who were able to return to the community from this facility. We found that 0 percent of this facility's residents returned home. At most nursing homes, closer to half of their patients are able to return home so this figure is below average.
Long-term Care Quality
The next category we scored is long-term care. We awarded it a grade of C in that area. This is a fair grade in this category. For patients looking for a permanent residence as opposed to skilled nursing, long-term care grades are an important measure. After looking at the volume of care provided by nurses aids and other staff, we next considered the facility's vaccination data. This nursing home vaccinated 100 percent of its residents for pneumonia, which is higher than the vast majority of nursing homes. Finally, this facility was also able to limit hospitalizations. In fact, it had only 0.01 hospitalizations per 1,000 long-term resident days, which is an impressively low number.
