Nurse Quality
In addition to being a quality nursing home overall, this facility really excelled in the area of nursing, where it received an A-. In computing a facility's nursing score, we consider the quantity of hours nurses spend with residents as well as the skill levels of those nurses. This nursing home provides 3.8 hours of nursing care per resident per day. Finally, we also assessed several nursing quality measures 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 the country in this category. This is generally a good indicator of quality nursing care. Pressure ulcers can typically be avoided by providing better nursing care, such as having a system of turning a resident even once per day.
Facility Inspections
In addition, this facility also excelled in inspections, where it earned a grade of B+. Few nursing homes performed as well in this area. We take several aspects of a facility's inspection report into consideration in determining these inspection grades. One critical factor is health deficiencies. It should be noted that the severity of the deficiencies is usually more meaningful than the quantity of deficiencies, as some of these are relatively minor. This facility was hit with 4 deficiencies on its inspection report, but none were considered to be severe deficiencies. This means that CMS didn't consider any of these deficiencies to create an immediate threat to resident health or safety. The fact that none of the deficiencies were severe leaves us less concerned with this inspection report.
Short-term Care Quality
The third category we analyzed is short-term care. This facility was awarded a very positive short-term care grade, with a B+ in this category. In computing our short-term care scores, we analyze the facility's skilled nursing services, such as those performed by registered nurses, respiratory therapists, physical therapists and other types of skilled professionals. The purpose is to create a measure for sizing up the rehabilitation services of nursing homes. 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 considered the percentage of patients who were able to return home from this facility. This facility performed better in this area than in its staffing levels. We found that it performed as well as just about any facility in this area with 59.2 percent of its residents returning home. Most facilities are below 50 percent in this statistic.
Long-term Care Quality
The next category we rated was long-term care. This facility received a strong long-term care score this year, with a grade of B. This facility truly doesn't have any weak categories. Long-term care grades in this range generally require both around the clock care from nurses and aids, as well as quality routine healthcare services. In addition to considering the quantity of care provided by nurses and other staff, we analyzed the number of residents vaccinated for pneumonia. This nursing home provided the vaccine to 46.72755 percent of its residents. This is somewhat less than we were hoping for but still a reasonably acceptable figure. This facility was also able to keep its residents out of the hospital. It had only 1.31 hospitalizations per one thousand long-term resident days.
