Facility Inspections
To pair with its strong overall performance, we awarded this nursing home an A for the area of inspections. Inspection ratings are tied to several pieces of information found on the a nursing home's recent inspection reports. Nursing homes that score well in this area tend to have very few deficiencies on those reports. Most importantly, these facilities should not have any severe deficiencies which are associated with risks to patient safety. This place received 4 deficiencies on its inspection report, but none of the deficiencies were considered severe. This tells you that the inspectors didn't consider any of the deficiencies to cause an immediate risk to resident safety or health. We should note that deficiency-free inspections are uncommon in the industry.
Nurse Quality
This nursing home performed well in our nursing category. In fact, we awarded it a grade of A- for that category, which is one of our highest scores. Our nursing rating consists of several components, but the paramount consideration is the number of nurse hours spent with patients. This facility provided 3.7 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 place has reliable quality controls in place. Major falls can generally be prevented if more nurses aids and better safety protocols are in place.
Short-term Care Quality
The next category we looked at is short-term care, where this nursing home was given a grade of B- in this area. Short-term care scores are critical for patients needing rehabilitation. Rehabilitation typically requires higher levels of highly-skilled nursing. This means a wide spectrum of nursing services, ranging from registered nurses to physical and occupational therapists, as well as other variations of therapy. Fortunately, this nursing home offers both physical therapists and registered nurses. Not all facilities offer both. Lastly, we considered the percentage of residents who were able to return to the community from this facility. We found that 27.5 percent of this facility's patients returned home. At most facilities, closer to half of their residents are able to return home so this is below average.
Long-term Care Quality
The final area we scored was long-term care. We gave this facility a grade of C in that category. In the category of long-term care, we weigh the quantity of services provided by a facility, rather than more healthcare-oriented services. One of the statistics we considered after nurse's aid hours is vaccinations. Thankfully, this nursing home administered the pneumonia vaccination to 99.71989 percent of its residents. This nursing home also excelled at keeping its residents out of the hospital. It had only 0.96 hospitalizations per one thousand long-term resident days, which is a remarkably low number.
