Long-term Care Quality

Grade: A

In addition to being a first rate facility overall, this facility also performed well in long-term care, where it received an A. Few nursing homes did better in this category. When facilities receive this kind of grade in this category it is typically a good sign for resident care and suggests that the place is well-staffed with nurses aids. One of the statistics we considered after nursing hours is vaccines. This nursing home administered the pneumonia vaccine to 94.202896 percent of its residents. This is a reliable method to minimize unnecessary hospitalizations for the senior population. Clearly, this facility is doing something right in this area as it was able to keep its patients out of the hospital. It had less than one hospitalization per 1,000 long-term resident days, which is an impressively low figure.

Short-term Care Quality

Grade: A

We also wanted to draw your attention to the fact that this nursing home received a first-rate grade of A in our short-term care area. Short-term care ratings are based in part on a facility's quantity of highly-skilled skilled healthcare professionals. This means a vast scope of nursing services, ranging from registered nurses to physical and speech therapists, in addition to other variations of therapy. Fortunately, it looks like this facility has registered nurses on staff. Not every facility employs these skilled professionals. On the other hand, according to the information they provided, they do not appear to employ physical therapists. The last measure we assessed in this area is the percentage of patients who who were able to eventually return home from the nursing home. We found that 5.4 percent of this nursing home's residents returned home as opposed to remaining at the nursing home on a permanent basis.

Nurse Quality

Grade: A

We also wanted to emphasize the fact that this facility received an impressive grade of A in our nursing category. We assessed the licensure of nurses working for the facility, in addition to the quantity of hours the nurses spent with residents, in determining our grade in this category. This nursing home averages 0.4 hours of nursing care per resident per day. Finally, we also looked at several nursing quality-based metrics and this facility excelled in some of these areas. With less than five percent of its residents sustaining pressure ulcers, it performed as well as any facility the nation in this category. This is generally a good indicator of quality nursing care. Pressure ulcers can generally be prevented by providing better nursing care, such as employing a system of moving patients even once per day.

Facility Inspections

Grade: A

Adding to its impressive category grades, this nursing home also excelled in inspections, where it received an A. This rounded out a straight A report card for this nursing home. Inspection grades weigh a host of factors included in a facility's inspection reports. One key criteria we look at is the number and severity of deficiencies. Places with better grades in this category typically have very few of these severe deficiencies. While this facility had a few deficiencies on its report, none of them were serious based on CMS' deficiency scale. Finally, this facility had no substantiated complaints this year from residents, which is an excellent sign.
