Awards
Registered Staff Hours
Nurse Quality
In addition to receiving a great overall grade, this nursing home excelled in our nursing category. In fact, we awarded it a grade of A for that category. The nursing rating is based on a handful of subcategories, but the most important one is the number of nurse hours spent with patients. This facility provided 0.4 hours of nursing care per resident per day. Finally, our nursing grades also factor in quality-based assessments, such as avoiding major falls. This place performed well in this area. Avoiding major falls is typically a good indicator that a nursing home has reliable quality controls in place. Major falls can frequently be avoided if more nurses aids and better safety protocols are in place.
Short-term Care Quality
Adding to its first-rate profile, this facility also was given a dominant short-term care score, with a grade of A-. Our short-term care ratings are likely most meaningful for people requiring rehabilitation from their nursing home. Rehabilitation typically utilizes more highly-skilled nursing services. Skilled nursing means not merely nursing services, but also physical and speech therapy, as well as other variations of therapy. Fortunately, it appear that this facility has registered nurses on staff. Not all nursing homes employs these skilled professionals. On the other hand, according to the information they provided, they do not appear to employ physical therapists. Lastly, we looked at the number of patients that ultimately were able to return home from this facility. We found that 5.3 percent of this nursing home's residents returned home.
