Long-term Care Quality
This nursing home's best grade came in long-term care. In that category, we awarded this facility a B+. It outperformed most nursing homes in this area. Facilities that receive this type of grade in long-term care typically provide consistent around the clock care to ensure residents are well cared for. On top of considering the quantity of care provided by nurses and other staff, we analyzed the number of residents vaccinated against pneumonia. This nursing home vaccinated 100 percent of its patients, which is much higher than most nursing homes. Clearly, this place is doing something right in this area as it also excelled at keeping its patients out of the hospital. It had less than one hospitalization per one thousand long-term resident days, which is a remarkably low number.
Facility Inspections
In addition, this nursing home also excelled in the area of inspections, where it received a grade of B+. Few nursing homes performed as well in this area. We weigh several aspects of a nursing home's inspection report in determining these inspection grades. One critical factor is health deficiencies. It should be noted that the severity of the deficiencies is arguably more important than the quantity of deficiencies, as some of these are quite minor. This nursing home received 11 deficiencies on its inspection report, but we were relieved to see that none were considered to be severe deficiencies. This means that the government inspectors didn't consider any of the deficiencies to create an imminent risk to resident health or safety. Keep in mind that deficiency-free inspection reports are rare in this industry.
