Facility Inspections
Grade: A-plus
One of the reasons this ended up being a quality nursing home is that it received an A+ inspection grade. This is simply as good as it gets in this very important category. Inspection scores account for several factors included in a facility's inspection reports. One key criteria we look at is the quantity and severity of deficiencies. Nursing homes with higher scores in this area usually have very 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.
Short-term Care Quality
Grade: A-plus
We also awarded this facility a score of A+ for its short-term care grade. In the category of short-term care, we seek to qualify measures of a facility's rehabilitation. We assess the facility's skilled nursing services, such as those performed by registered nurses and physical, occupational and other therapists. Fortunately, it appear that this nursing home has registered nurses on staff. Not every nursing home employs these skilled professionals. On the other hand, according to the data they provided, they do not appear to employ physical therapists. Lastly, we looked at the number of patients who returned home from this facility. We found that 7.2 percent of this nursing home's residents returned home.
