Facility Inspections
To go along with its strong overall grade, we awarded this nursing home a grade of A+ for our inspections rating. We take several aspects of a facility's inspection report into consideration in calculating our inspection grades. One of those factors is health deficiencies. It should be noted that the severity of the deficiencies is usually more meaningful than the quantity of deficiencies, as some deficiencies end up being relatively minor. 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. Finally, this facility had no substantiated complaints this year from residents, which is an excellent sign.
Long-term Care Quality
This facility also was elite in the area of long-term care, where it received a score of A-. Not many nursing homes performed better in this category. Facilities that receive this kind of grade in this category tend to provide consistent around the clock care to make sure patients are well cared for. In addition to offering very impressive levels of nurse staffing, this facility administered the pneumonia vaccine to 99.2 percent of its patients. Vaccines are vital to keeping residents out of the hospital. This combination proved to be successful as this nursing home also excelled at keeping its residents out of the hospital. Indeed, it had only 0.74 hospitalizations per one thousand long-term resident days, which is an impressively low figure.
Nurse Quality
Another strong feature for this facility is that it received an impressive nursing grade. In that area, we awarded this facility a grade of B+. Our nursing rating consists of many components, most of which are tied to quantities of nurse staffing. This nursing home provided 5 hours of nursing care per resident on a daily basis. This is an impressive figure which typically leads to better quality care. Lastly, we also looked at nursing quality-based metrics in determining our nursing grades. These include minimizing residents' pressure ulcers and major falls. We view these statistics as reliable indicators of the caliber of nursing care being provided, since better care tends to reduce these problems.
Short-term Care Quality
The final category we assessed was short-term care. This facility received a better than average nursing rating in our assessment, with a grade of B. Although this was not quite as elite as some of its other grades, this is still one of our more favorable grades for that category. In computing our short-term care grades, we assess the nursing home's levels of skilled nursing services, which includes registered nurses, physical therapists occupational therapists and other highly trained professionals. This category is generally a reliable measure of the facility's rehabilitation services. We were pleased to find that this nursing home employs both registered nurses and physical therapists. The same can't be said for all nursing homes. Finally, we assessed the number of patients who were able to return to the community from this facility. We found that 40 percent of this facility's patients returned home.
