Long-term Care Quality

Grade: A-minus

On top of receiving a strong overall score, this nursing home performed well in long-term care. We awarded it an A- for that category, which is one of our highest scores. When facilities receive this kind of grade in this category it is typically a good sign for resident care and indicates that the nursing home is well-staffed with nurses aids. One of the datapoints we considered on top of nursing hours was vaccinations. This facility provided the pneumonia vaccination to 100 percent of its residents. This is a reliable method to avoid negative health outcomes for the elderly population. Clearly, this nursing home is doing something right in this area as it was able to keep its residents out of the hospital. Indeed, it had only 0.01 hospitalizations per 1,000 long-term resident days, which is a remarkably low figure.

Short-term Care Quality

Grade: B-plus

Additionally, this nursing home also was awarded favorable short-term care scores in our assessment. In fact, we awarded it one of our higher scores in that area, with a grade of B+. In computing our short-term care ratings, we quantify the nursing home's skilled nursing services, including those performed by registered nurses, speech therapists, physical therapists and other types of therapists. The purpose is to devise a measure for comparing the rehabilitation services of different nursing homes. Fortunately, it looks like this facility has registered nurses on staff. Not every facility employs these types of nurses. However, according to the information they provided, they do not appear to employ physical therapists. The last statistic we looked at in this category is the percentage of residents that ultimately returned home from the nursing home. We found that 5.7 percent of this nursing home's residents returned home as opposed to remaining at the nursing home on a permanent basis.

Facility Inspections

Grade: B

Furthermore, this facility also received impressive government inspections in recent years. We awarded them one of our higher scores in that category, with a grade of B. We weigh several aspects of a nursing home's inspection report in determining our inspection ratings. One key factor is deficiencies. You should keep in mind that the severity of deficiencies is usually more meaningful than the quantity of deficiencies, as some of these can be relatively minor. This particular nursing home received 3 deficiencies on its inspection report. Finally, this facility had no substantiated complaints this year from residents, which is an excellent sign.

Nurse Quality

Grade: B-minus

The final area we graded is nursing. For this category, we awarded this nursing home a grade of B-. There are a number of data points within this area. Most of the criteria relate to staffing levels. This particular nursing home provided just 0.4 hours of nursing care per resident on a daily basis. This figure is far below average. Despite having low quantities of nursing care, this nursing home excelled in some of the quality measures we assessed. It performed well when it comes to avoiding major falls and pressure ulcers. Many consider these areas to be measures of the quality of nursing care. In many cases, the quality of nursing care is as important as the number of hours of care offered.
