Facility Inspections

Grade: A

On top of being a top notch nursing home overall, it also excelled in the area of inspections, where it received an A. Not many facilities performed better in this category. We weigh several aspects of a nursing home's inspection report in computing our inspection grades. One critical factor is health deficiencies. You should keep in mind that the severity of these deficiencies is arguably more meaningful than the quantity of deficiencies, as some can be quite insignificant. While this nursing home had a few deficiencies on its report, none were major deficiencies based on CMS' scale. A few relatively minor dings aren't necessarily the end of the world.

Nurse Quality

Grade: A

One of the other reasons we graded this facility so highly is that it earned a very impressive nursing grade. In that category, we awarded this facility a grade of A. Nursing ratings are tied to levels of nurse staffing. This facility provided 0.3 hours of nursing care per resident per day. Finally, we also looked at some nursing quality-based metrics in determining our nursing grades. This place performed very well in the area of minimizing its residents' major falls and pressure ulcers. We consider these areas to be good indicators of the quality of nursing care.

Short-term Care Quality

Grade: A-minus

Moving on our third category, this nursing home received first-rate short-term care score. In fact, it received a score of A- in that category. In calculating our short-term care scores, we analyze the nursing home's levels of skilled nursing, which includes registered nurses, physical therapists occupational therapists and other types of therapists. This category is often a meaningful assessment of a nursing home's rehabilitation services. Fortunately, it appear that this facility employs registered nurses. Not every facility employs these skilled professionals. On the other hand, according to the data this nursing home provided, it does not look like the facility employs physical therapists. Finally, we assessed the number of residents who were able to return to the community from this nursing home. We found that 0 percent of this nursing home's residents returned home.

Long-term Care Quality

Grade: B-plus

The final category we graded is long-term care, where this nursing home was awarded a grade of B+. This rounded out an elite profile. Not many facilities earned a B+ or higher in in each area we assessed. When nursing homes receive a grade in this range in this category it generally means it's well-staffed and is a quality place to live on a permanent basis. One of the statistics we considered in addition to nursing hours was vaccines. This facility provided the pneumonia vaccination to 94.07008 percent of its patients. This is a great way to avoid negative health outcomes for the nursing home population. Lastly, this nursing home was able to limit hospitalizations. In fact, it had less than one hospitalization per 1,000 long-term resident days, which is a remarkably low figure.
