Facility Inspections

On top of being a strong nursing home overall, this place also excelled in the area of inspections, where it received an A. Not many nursing homes performed better in this category. Perhaps the most significant factor we look at in computing our inspection ratings is deficiencies. Deficiencies can be found on a facility's recent inspection reports. Nursing homes with higher scores in this category most likely avoided the most severe deficiencies involving health risks or even death. While this nursing home had some minor dings on its inspection report, it had zero severe deficiencies. Severe deficiencies are ones labeled as categories G through L. This tells you the government inspectors didn't deem any of the deficiencies on this facility's report to pose an imminent threat to patient health or safety. Finally, this facility had no substantiated complaints this year from residents, which is an excellent sign.

Long-term Care Quality

Another one of this facility's impressive category scores came in the area of long-term care. We gave them one of our more favorable scores in that area, with a grade of B. 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. One of the factors we considered in addition to nurse's aid hours is vaccines. This nursing home administered the pneumonia vaccine to 88.99083 percent of its patients. Clearly, this nursing home is doing something right in this area as it also excelled at keeping its residents out of the hospital. It had only 0.01 hospitalizations per one thousand long-term resident days, which is an impressively low figure.

Nurse Quality

This facility's next best category grade came in the area of nursing. In that category, we gave this nursing home a grade of B-. This wasn't quite on par with some of its other category grades mentioned above. In calculating our nursing ratings, we look at both nursing hours and the levels of licensure of those nurses. This nursing home provides 0.3 hours of nursing care per resident per day. This is a much lower figure than we are used to seeing. Finally, while this facility got dinged a bit for nursing hours per resident, it excelled in a few of our quality metrics. With fewer than five percent of its patients suffering from pressure ulcers, it did remarkably well in this statistic.

Short-term Care Quality

Our last area is short-term care, where we gave this facility a grade of C in that category. In the area of short-term care, we seek to assess indicators of a facility's rehabilitation. We look at the nursing home's skilled nursing services, including those performed by registered nurses and various therapists. Fortunately, it appear that this facility has registered nurses on staff. Not every nursing home employs these skilled professionals. However, according to the information this nursing home provided, they do not appear to employ physical therapists. The last item we looked at in this area is the number of residents that returned home from the nursing home. We found that just 5 percent of this nursing home's patients returned home. This figure was below average.
