Facility Inspections

Grade: A-plus

We also wanted to emphasize the fact that this facility has received near flawless government inspections in recent years. We gave them an impressive grade of A+ in this category. Our inspection scores account for several factors included in a nursing home's inspection report. One key criteria we look at is the quantity and severity of deficiencies. Nursing homes with better grades in this category generally have few severe deficiencies. This particular nursing home had just a single deficiency on its inspection report and it was not one deemed to pose a threat to patient health or safety. Finally, this facility had no substantiated complaints this year from residents, which is an excellent sign.

Long-term Care Quality

Grade: A-minus

Among this nursing home's other accomplishments is its top-shelf long-term care score. We gave them one of our most impressive scores in that category, with a score of A-. Nursing homes that do well in this category typically provide patients with closer supervision and stay on top of routine medical care. Once we looked at the volume of care provided by aids and other staff, we next considered the facility's vaccination record. This nursing home vaccinated 100 percent of its patients against pneumonia, which is much higher than most nursing homes. Lastly, this place was able to limit hospitalizations. In fact, it had less than one hospitalization per 1,000 long-term resident days, which is an impressively low figure.

Short-term Care Quality

Grade: B

The next category we graded was short-term care. This facility was awarded a very positive short-term care score, with a grade of B in the area. With our short-term care rating, we endeavor to craft a meaningful barometer for rehabilitation services. In doing so, we assess the facility's offerings of skilled nursing services, including both registered nurses and physical therapy, as well as occupational therapy. Unfortunately, we were not able to track down registered nurse or physical therapy staffing data for this facility. The last measure we considered in this category is the number of residents that ultimately were able to return home from the facility. We found that 5.8 percent of this nursing home's patients returned home as opposed to remaining at the nursing home on a permanent basis.

Nurse Quality

Grade: D

Moving on to our last category, we awarded this facility a grade of D for our nursing category. This was the nursing home's worst category score. However, you shouldn't over-emphasize one poor grade. In computing our nursing ratings, we look at both nursing hours and the skill levels of the nurses. This nursing home offered just 0.3 hours of nursing care per resident each day. Although this nursing home's nursing hours are below average, it actually surprised us in a few of the qualitative statistics in this category. In particular, we were pleased to find that its residents are sustaining fewer pressure ulcers than most nursing homes.
