Grade: A-plus

One of the many reasons this turned out to be a quality nursing home is that it received an A+ inspection grade. This is simply as good as it gets in this critical category.

Finally, this facility had no substantiated complaints this year from residents, which is an excellent sign.

Short-term Care Quality

Grade: A

We also want to point out the fact that this facility received a first-rate score of A in our short-term care category. In computing our short-term care scores, we analyze the nursing home's levels of highly skilled nursing, which includes registered nurses, physical therapists respiratory therapists and other highly trained professionals. This score is typically a fair measure of the nursing home's rehabilitation services. Fortunately, it looks like this facility employs registered nurses. Not every nursing home employs these types of nurses. However, based on the data this nursing home provided, they do not appear to employ physical therapists.

Finally, we also assessed 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 place New York in this category. This is generally a good indicator of quality nursing care. Pressure ulcers can often be prevented by offering better nursing care, such as by having a policy of moving residents more frequently.

Long-term Care Quality

Grade: A-minus

Switching gears to the fourth area, this nursing home was awarded a highly favorable long-term care grade. In fact, we gave it an A- in that area, rounding out a straight A profile. When facilities receive a grade in this range in this category it typically means it's well-staffed and is a quality place to reside on a permanent basis.

This nursing home provided the vaccine to 99.183304 percent of its patients. Vaccines are vital to keeping patients out of the hospital. Finally, this facility was able to limit hospitalizations.
