Facility Inspections
We also wanted to emphasize the fact that this nursing home has received near flawless inspections in recent years. We gave them an impressive grade of A+ in this category. Perhaps the most important factor we consider in determining our inspection ratings is deficiencies. Deficiencies are found on a facility's recent inspection reports. Nursing homes with higher grades in this category typically dodged the most severe deficiencies involving health risks or even death. Unfortunately, it doesn't appear that we have information on deficiency's for this nursing home. We wish we had more data for this facility. Without having all of the deficiency data, it was a challenge to fully evaluate the place in the area of inspections.
Short-term Care Quality
This top-shelf nursing home also performed well in the area of short-term care, where we awarded it a score of A+. Only a small group of facilities fared better in this area. In determining these short-term care ratings, we assess the nursing home's skilled nursing services, including those performed by registered nurses, occupational therapists, physical therapists and other types of therapists. Our goal is to formulate a scale for sizing up the rehabilitation services of nursing homes. Fortunately, it appear that this facility employs registered nurses. Not all nursing homes employs these skilled professionals. On the other hand, based on the data they provided, it does not look like the facility employs physical therapists. The last statistic we assessed in this area is the percentage of residents that were able to return home from the facility. We found that 6.9 percent of this nursing home's residents returned home as opposed to remaining at the facility on a permanent basis.
