Facility Inspections
This nursing home received a quality overall grade as described above, but we especially wanted to point out its excellent inspections in recent years. We awarded them an A in this category. We take several aspects of a facility's inspection report into consideration in determining our inspection ratings. One of those factors is deficiencies. It should be noted that the severity of deficiencies is arguably more important than the quantity of deficiencies, as some end up being relatively insignificant. While this facility had a few deficiencies on its report, none were serious based on CMS' deficiency scale. Keep in mind that deficiency-free inspection reports are uncommon in this industry.
Short-term Care Quality
This facility was awarded a favorable short-term care score as well. We gave it one of our better grades in that area with a score of B+. Our short-term care grade is commonly employed to score a nursing home's performance with rehabilitation. To provide good rehabilitation services, nursing homes generally must feature better levels of highly skilled nursing. Skilled nursing includes registered nurses, physical therapists, respiratory therapists and other types of therapists. Unfortunately, it doesn't look like this nursing home submitted data regarding its registered nurse or physical therapy staffing. The final measure we looked at in this area is the percentage of patients who were able to leave the facility and return to the community. We discovered that 6.7 percent of this nursing home's residents were able to return home.
