Facility Inspections

Grade: A-plus

One of the many reasons this ended up being a quality nursing home is it received an A+ inspection grade. This is as good as it gets in this very important category. Inspection scores take several factors into consideration, including deficiencies and substantiated complaints. You can find more information about each of these issues by obtaining copies of nursing homes' inspection reports. This particular nursing home had just a single deficiency on its inspection report and it was not one deemed to pose a threat to patient health or safety. Finally, this facility had no substantiated complaints this year from residents, which is an excellent sign.

Nurse Quality

Grade: A

One of the other reasons we graded this facility so highly is that it received a very impressive nursing grade. Nursing proved to be its second best category grade. In that category, we gave this facility an A. Our nursing grade is mostly associated with the facility's level of nurse staffing. This particular nursing home provided 0.6 hours of nursing care per resident per day. Finally, we also assessed some nursing quality-based metrics in determining our nursing grades. This facility performed very well in the area of minimizing its residents' pressure ulcers and major falls. We consider these areas to be good indicators of the quality of nursing care.

Short-term Care Quality

Grade: A

Turning our third category, we gave this nursing home a grade of A for its short-term care grade. This is a first-rate grade. Our short-term care grades are considered to be most critical for folks in need of rehabilitation services. Rehabilitation typically utilizes more skilled nursing. Skilled nursing includes not merely nursing, but also physical and respiratory therapy, as well as other forms of therapy. Fortunately, it appear that this nursing home employs registered nurses. Not all nursing homes employs these skilled professionals. On the other hand, according to the information this nursing home provided, it does not look like the facility employs physical therapists. The last measure we assessed in this area is the percentage of residents who were able to leave the facility and return home. We found that 6.7 percent of this nursing home's residents returned home.

Long-term Care Quality

Grade: A

Turning to the next category, this nursing home also performed admirably in the long-term care category. In fact, we awarded it an A in this category. This completed a straight A report card. For residents in need of a permanent place to live rather than skilled nursing, long-term care grades are an important measure. One of the statistics we considered in addition to nursing hours is vaccinations. Unfortunately, it does not look like this facility provided data regarding vaccinations. Clearly, this place is doing something right in this area as it was able to keep its patients out of the hospital. Indeed, it had only 0 hospitalizations per 1,000 long-term resident days, which is a remarkably low figure.
