Facility Inspections

Grade: A-plus

One of the reasons this place ended up being a quality nursing home is that it received an A+ inspection grade. This is as good as it gets in this very important category. Our inspection ratings account for several factors included in a nursing home's inspection reports. One of the most important criteria we look at is the quantity and severity of deficiencies. Facilities with higher grades in this area tend to have very few severe deficiencies. This particular nursing home received 5 deficiencies on its inspection report. Overall, this is still a good inspection report, but we'd always recommend looking into any deficiencies you find troubling.

Short-term Care Quality

Grade: A

This facility also was elite in the area of short-term care, where we awarded it a grade of A. Only a select group of facilities performed better in this area. Short-term care scores are vital for people needing rehabilitation. Rehabilitation usually mandates additional skilled nursing. This means a vast scope of services, ranging from registered nurses to physical and occupational therapists, as well as other variations of therapy. Fortunately, it appear that this facility has registered nurses on staff. Not every nursing home employs these types of nurses. However, based on the data they provided, it does not look like the facility employs physical therapists. The last metric we assessed in this area is the percentage of patients who were able to leave the nursing home and return home. We discovered that 5.5 percent of this facility's patients were able to return home.

Nurse Quality

Grade: A-minus

We also wanted to emphasize the fact that this facility received an impressive grade of A- in our nursing category. We scrutinized the levels of nurses employed by the facility, in addition to the quantity of hours the nurses were with patients, in determining our grade in this area. This nursing home provides 0.3 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 avoiding pressure ulcers and major falls. We consider these areas to be good indicators of the quality of nursing care.

Long-term Care Quality

Grade: B-minus

Moving on to the final area, this facility was awarded a respectable long-term care grade. Even though this was not nearly as dominant as a few of its other scores, this is truly nothing to be ashamed of. With our long-term care grade, we analyze the volume of care offered by a facility, as well as a handful of quality measures. After looking at the volume of care provided by aids and other staff, we then looked at the nursing home's vaccination statistics. We were pleased to find that this facility vaccinated 97.53695 percent of its residents against pneumonia. Lastly, this facility was also able to limit hospitalizations. In fact, it had less than one hospitalization per 1,000 long-term resident days, which is an impressively low number.
