Facility Inspections
This facility received a strong overall score as described above, but we especially want to emphasize its excellent inspections in recent years. We gave them an impressive grade of A in this area. Arguably the most significant factor we look at in determining our inspection grades is deficiencies. Deficiencies can be found on a nursing home's recent inspection reports. Places with higher scores in this category most likely avoided the more severe deficiencies involving patient abuse or death. Although this facility had some deficiencies on its inspection report, none of them were serious based on CMS' deficiency scale. The fact that the deficiencies were relatively minor leaves us less concerned with this inspection report.
Short-term Care Quality
Adding to this facility's list of strengths, it also was awarded a superb short-term care grade. We awarded them a strong strong of A- in this area. Our short-term care grade is generally employed to gauge a nursing home's rehabilitation services. To offer highly rated rehabilitation services, facilities generally need to provide higher levels of skilled nursing services. Skilled nursing includes registered nurses, physical therapists, occupational therapists and other types of therapists. One of this nursing home's strengths is physical therapy hours. We found that it offers more hours with physical therapists to its residents than most facilities. The last datapoint we looked at in this category is the number of patients who were able to leave the nursing home and return to the community. We found that it fared as well as just about any facility in Oregon in this area with 60.3 percent of its residents returning home.
Nurse Quality
In addition, this facility also received favorable nursing grades this year. In fact, we awarded them one of our better scores in that area, with a grade of B. Our nursing grade is largely associated with the facility's nurse staffing. With 4.7 hours of nursing care per resident per day, this nursing home surpassed the overwhelming majority of facilities. Lastly, this nursing home was also above average in each of the major quality measures we looked at in this category. For example, it performed well in the area of minimizing its residents' major falls and pressure ulcers. These areas are generally reliable indicators of the quality of nursing care a facility provides.
Long-term Care Quality
Switching gears to our next category, we awarded this facility a grade of D in our long-term care category. This is the facility's worst category score. Unfortunately, this category hurt the nursing home's overall profile a bit. If you are looking for anything other than short-term rehabilitation, you should take a close look at long-term care grades. After looking at nursing hours provided by this nursing home, we next considered the facility's vaccination statistics. Due to its grade in this category, we were pleasantly surprised to discover that this facility received respectable marks in both subcategories. Indeed, this nursing home vaccinated 100 percent of its residents for pneumonia, which appears to be higher than many nursing homes. To our surprise, this nursing home was able to keep its residents out of the hospital. It had only 0.58 hospitalizations per one thousand long-term resident days. Unfortunately, a few of its other scores in the category were not as favorable as these.
