Facility Inspections
The primary reason this facility received a decent overall grade is its impeccable government inspections in recent years. We gave it one of our better grades in that category, with an A-. This is a notably better grade than the place's overall score, which was decent but certainly not elite. Arguably the most critical factor we consider in computing our inspection ratings is deficiencies. These deficiencies are found on a facility's recent inspection reports. Places with better scores in this area most likely avoided the most severe deficiencies involving health risks or even death. This nursing home was hit with 3 deficiencies on its inspection report, but fortunately none were considered to be severe. This indicates that the inspectors didn't consider any of the deficiencies to cause an immediate risk to patient health or safety. The fact that none of the deficiencies were severe made us feel better about this inspection report.
Long-term Care Quality
Additionally, we awarded this nursing home a B+ in our long-term care category. This happens to be one of our better scores. Facilities that receive this kind of score in this category typically provide consistent 24/7 care to make sure residents are well cared for. Once we concluded our assessment of the amount of nursing care, we next considered the facility's vaccination statistics. This facility vaccinated 99.449036 percent of its residents for pneumonia, which is an impressive figure. Pneumonia is too frequently a life or death condition for nursing home patients so we strongly prefer when a nursing home doesn't roll the dice on this issue. Lastly, we looked at its number of hospitalizations. Here we found that this place had 2.64 hospitalizations per 1,000 long-term resident days.
