Facility Inspections
On top of receiving a great overall score, this nursing home performed even better in our inspections category which is based on the nursing home's recent government inspection reports. We awarded it an A for that category, which is one of our highest scores. Arguably the most significant factor we look at in determining our inspection scores is deficiencies. Deficiencies are found on a nursing home's inspection reports. Places with better scores in this category most likely avoided the more severe deficiencies involving patient abuse or death. This place was assessed 2 deficiencies on its inspection report, but none of the deficiencies were considered to be severe deficiencies. This means that the inspectors didn't deem any of the deficiencies to cause an immediate threat to patient safety or health. The fact that none of the deficiencies were severe made us feel better about this inspection report.
Short-term Care Quality
Adding to this nursing home's list of achievements, it also was given a fine short-term care grade. We gave them an impressive grade of A- in this category. Short-term care scores are critical for patients in need of rehabilitation. Rehabilitation usually requires more highly-skilled nursing. Skilled nursing includes a wide spectrum of services, ranging from registered nurses to physical and respiratory therapists, as well as other variations of therapy. One of this nursing home's strengths is registered nurse hours. We found that it offers more care from registered nurses to its residents than most facilities. Finally, we looked at the percentage of patients who were able to return to the community from this facility. It outperformed the vast majority of nursing homes in the nation with 63.6 percent of its patients returning home.
Nurse Quality
Adding to its profile, this facility also earned a grade of B for its nursing rating. This is a well above average score in this category. The nursing score considers many subcategories. The most heavily weighted factor is the number of hours nurses spend with patients. This nursing home averages 2.9 hours of nursing care per resident per day. Finally, our nursing grades also factor in quality-based assessments, such as avoiding major falls. This facility performed well in this area. Avoiding major falls is typically a good indicator that a place has reliable quality controls in place. Major falls can typically be avoided if more nurses aids and better safety protocols are in place.
Long-term Care Quality
The final category we graded was long-term care, which ended up being this nursing home's weakest category. We awarded this facility a D in this area. Of course, this grade hurt the nursing home's overall profile a bit. For prospective patients seeking a permanent residence rather than skilled nursing, long-term care grades are a key measure. After looking at the volume of care provided by nurses and other staff, we turned to the facility's vaccination record. We were optimistic to find that this nursing home vaccinated 100 percent of its residents against pneumonia. To our surprise, this nursing home was able to limit hospitalizations. With just 0.56 hospitalizations per 1,000 long-term resident days, this facility had less hospitalizations than the majority of nursing homes. Unfortunately, a few of its other scores in the category weren't as favorable as these.
