Facility Inspections
In addition to being a great overall grade, this facility also received A+ health inspections in recent years. Its inspections were virtually flawless. Inspection grades account for a host of factors included in a nursing home's inspection report. One of the most important criteria we look at is the quantity and severity of deficiencies. Facilities with better scores in this area tend to have very few of these severe deficiencies. Unfortunately, we were not able to track down information about this nursing home's deficiencies. Finally, this facility had no substantiated complaints this year from residents, which is an excellent sign.
Short-term Care Quality
This nursing home also was awarded an A+ short-term care grade, rendering it one of the few nursing homes to be awarded more than one A+ category scores. In determining these short-term care ratings, we look at the nursing home's skilled nursing services, including those performed by registered nurses, respiratory therapists, physical therapists and other types of therapists. The objective is to formulate a barometer for sizing up the rehabilitation services of different nursing homes. Fortunately, it looks like this nursing home has registered nurses on staff. Not every facility employs these skilled professionals. However, based on the information they provided, it does not look like the facility employs physical therapists. The final item we assessed in this category is the percentage of residents that eventually returned home from the facility. We found that 7.1 percent of this nursing home's residents returned home as opposed to remaining at the nursing home on a permanent basis.

An additional strength for this facility was long-term care, where it was given an A+ grade. This is just about as dominant as it gets in this category. Facilities that receive this kind of grade in long-term care typically provide consistent 24/7 care to ensure residents are well cared for. One of the datapoints we considered on top of nursing hours was vaccines. This facility provided the pneumonia vaccination to 100 percent of its patients. This is a proven method to minimize negative health outcomes for the elderly population. Finally, this facility was able to limit hospitalizations. It had less than one hospitalization per one thousand long-term resident days, which is an impressively low figure.
Nurse Quality
In the last area we rated, this nursing home received high scores in the category of nursing also. Consequently, it received an A+. This rendered it one of just a few of facilities to receive A+'s in all four categories. Our nursing grade is mostly tied to the facility's nurse staffing. This nursing home provides 0.9 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 facility has reliable quality controls in place. Major falls can often be avoided if more nurses aids and better safety protocols are in place.
