Short-term Care Quality
In addition to being a first-rate nursing home overall, this nursing home also excelled at short-term care, where it received an A+. In determining these short-term care scores, we analyze the facility's skilled nursing services, including those performed by registered nurses, respiratory therapists, physical therapists and other types of therapists. The purpose is to devise a measure for sizing up the rehabilitation services of various nursing homes. This nursing home is above the national average both in terms of its quantity of physical therapy and registered nurse hours provided to its residents. These are generally good indicators of quality short-term care. The final statistic we looked at in this area is the percentage of patients who were able to leave the nursing home and return to the community. We found that it fared as well as just about any facility in Colorado in this area with 65.1 percent of its residents returning home.
Nurse Quality
Adding to its impressive resume, this nursing home also excelled in our nursing category. In fact, we awarded it a grade of A for that category. Nursing scores are primarily associated with the nursing home's level of nurse staffing. This facility provided 3.8 hours of nursing care per resident per day. Finally, we also assessed some nursing quality measures in determining our nursing grades. This nursing home 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.
Facility Inspections
We awarded this nursing home an A for our inspections rating. Arguably the most important factor we look at in computing our inspection scores is deficiencies. These deficiencies are found on a nursing home's recent inspection reports. Facilities with better grades in this category most likely avoided the most severe deficiencies involving health risks or even death. 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. Even some of the best nursing homes receive an occasional ding on their inspection report.
Long-term Care Quality
The last area we analyzed was long-term care. This nursing home was given an above average long-term care grade in our assessment, with a grade of B-. Even though this isn't nearly as good as several of its other scores, this is nevertheless a respectable rating in that area. For residents in need of a permanent residence as opposed to rehabilitation, long-term care is an important category. In addition to considering the amount of care provided by aids and other staff, we analyzed the percentage of residents vaccinated for pneumonia. This facility administered the vaccine to 98.59155 percent of its patients, which is higher than the average nursing home. Lastly, this place was able to limit hospitalizations. With just 1.16 hospitalizations per one thousand long-term resident days, this nursing home had less hospitalizations than the average nursing home.
