Facility Inspections
One of the reasons this place is a quality facility is that it earned a very impressive inspection score. Inspections turned out to be its best category grade. In this category, we gave this facility a grade of A-. Arguably the most important factor we look at in computing our inspection grades is deficiencies. Deficiencies are found on a facility's inspection reports. Facilities with higher scores in this area typically avoided the more severe deficiencies involving things like patient abuse. Fortunately, although this place had a few minor dings on its inspection report, it had zero severe deficiencies. Severe deficiencies are ones found in categories G through L. This means that the government inspectors didn't consider any of the deficiencies on this facility's report to pose an imminent threat to patient health or safety. The fact that the deficiencies were relatively minor leaves us less concerned with this inspection report.
Short-term Care Quality
This nursing home is also strong in the area of short-term care, where it received a score of B+. It outpaced most nursing homes in this area. In the category of short-term care, we strive to evaluate measures of a nursing home's rehabilitation services. We assess a nursing home's skilled nursing services, such as the ones performed by registered nurses and physical and occupational therapists. Unfortunately, we weren't able to locate information on registered nurse or physical therapy staffing for this nursing home. The last metric we considered in this area is the percentage of residents who were able to return home from the facility. We found that 6.5 percent of this nursing home's residents returned home as opposed to remaining at the nursing home on a permanent basis.
