Short-term Care Quality
One of the many reasons this turned out to be a great facility is that it received a very impressive short-term care score. In that category, we gave this facility an A. With our short-term care grade, we strive to forge a fair measure for rehabilitation services. In this process, we assess the nursing home's scope of highly-skilled nursing services, including both registered nurses and physical therapy, as well as speech therapy. One of this nursing home's strength is that it offers more hours of care from registered nurses to its residents. 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 country in this area with 68 percent of its patients returning home. This is a significantly better rate than most nursing homes.
Facility Inspections
Adding to its impressive category scores, this facility also excelled in the area of inspections, where it earned an A. Inspection scores weigh several factors, including deficiencies, substantiated complaints and federal fines. You can learn more about each of these items by reviewing copies of nursing homes' inspection reports. This nursing home received 4 deficiencies on its inspection report, but we were relieved to see that none of the deficiencies were considered to be major deficiencies. This indicates that CMS did not consider any of the deficiencies to cause an immediate risk to resident health or safety. We should point out that deficiency-free inspections are uncommon in this industry.
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+. Nursing scores are tied to nurse staffing levels. This particular nursing home provided 4.4 hours of nursing care per resident each day. This was one of the highest totals we found. Furthermore, we found that a significant portion of this care was provided by registered nurses, which are highly skilled nurses. These are both really impressive figures. On top of offering impressive levels of care, this nursing home also excelled in several of the quality measures we looked at. With below 5 percent of its patients suffering from pressure ulcers, it performed as well as any place the country in this category.
Long-term Care Quality
The next area we graded is this nursing home's weakest area. Nevertheless, even in its weakest link we still awarded it an acceptable grade of B- for long-term care. In calculating our long-term care ratings, we assess the personal care offered to the facility's residents. In addition to looking at the favorable volume of care provided by nurses and other staff at this facility, we also were happy with the facility's record for vaccinations. For example, this facility gave the pneumonia vaccine to 99.187 percent of its residents, which is above average. This combination proved to be successful as this nursing home keeps its residents out of the hospital. It had only 0 hospitalizations per one thousand long-term resident days, which is an impressively low number.
