Long-term Care Quality

Grade: A-plus

One of the many reasons this turned out to be a great nursing home is that it received an A+ long-term care grade. This is simply as good as it gets in this category. Facilities that excel in this category tend to provide patients with more supervision and stay on top of routine healthcare services. One of the factors we considered on top of nursing hours is vaccinations. This nursing home provided the pneumonia vaccine to 99.43503 percent of its patients. Vaccination is a great way to avoid unnecessary deaths and hospitalizations for the elderly population. Lastly, this place was able to limit hospitalizations. Indeed, it had only 0 hospitalizations per one thousand long-term resident days, which is a remarkably low number.

Grade: B-plus

We also wanted to emphasize this nursing home's nearly flawless government inspections recently. We gave them an B+ in this category. Our inspection scores are based on many items located in the a nursing home's inspection reports. Facilities that excel in this area tend to have very few deficiencies on their reports. Most importantly, these nursing homes should not have any severe deficiencies which are associated with endangerment of patients. This particular nursing home received 5 deficiencies on its inspection report. Finally, this facility had no substantiated complaints this year from residents, which is an excellent sign.

Grade: B-plus

In addition, this facility also received favorable nursing grades this year. In fact, we awarded them one of our better scores in that area, with a grade of B+.

This particular nursing home provided 0.5 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 terms of avoiding pressure ulcers and major falls. We consider these areas to be good indicators of the quality of nursing care.

Short-term Care Quality

Grade: C

The final category we rated was short-term care. This nursing home received a very good short-term care rating this year, with a C. Although this is not quite as elite as a few of its other category grades, this is still a respectable grade for that category. Short-term care scores are based on the nursing home's quantity of skilled highly skilled professionals. This means a broad range of nursing services, spanning from registered nurses to physical and speech therapists, in addition to other variations of therapy. It does not appear that this facility submitted information about its staffing of registered nurses or physical therapists. The last metric we looked at in this category is the percentage of patients who were able to leave the facility and return to the community. We discovered that just 0 percent of this facility's patients were able to return home, which is below average.
