Nurse Quality
To go along with its impressive overall grade, we awarded this nursing home an A- for our nursing score. When computing a facility's nursing rating, we weigh the number of hours nurses spend with residents and the levels of training of the nurses. This nursing home provides 0.4 hours of nursing care per resident per day. Finally, we also assessed several nursing quality measures and this facility excelled in some of these areas. With less than five percent of its residents sustaining pressure ulcers, it performed as well as any nursing home the state in this category. This is generally a good indicator of quality nursing care. Pressure ulcers can typically be avoided by providing better nursing care, such as by employing a system of moving residents even once per day.

Among the reasons we graded this nursing home so favorably is that it was awarded a strong long-term care score. In fact, long-term care ended up being its second most favorable category grade. In that area, we gave this nursing home a score of A-. When facilities receive this type of grade in this category it is a good sign for patient care and suggests that the place is well-staffed with nurses aids.

This facility vaccinated 93.90244 percent of its residents against pneumonia. Vaccines are critical to keeping residents healthy. Finally, this nursing home was able to limit hospitalizations.

This facility truly excelled in the area of short-term care, where we gave it a score of A-. Very few nursing homes performed better in this category. Our short-term care grades are based in part on a facility's quantity of skilled skilled healthcare professionals. This includes a vast spectrum of services, spanning from registered nurses to physical and respiratory therapists, as well as other types of therapy. Fortunately, it looks like this nursing home has registered nurses on staff. Not every facility employs these skilled professionals. However, according to the information they provided, they do not appear to employ physical therapists. The final item we assessed in this category is the number of patients who were able to leave the facility and return to the community. We found that 5.3 percent of this nursing home's residents returned home.
Facility Inspections
In the final category we assessed, this nursing home received a decent grade in inspections as well. We awarded it a B- for that category. Our inspection grades account for a host of factors included in a facility's inspection report. One of the most important criteria we weigh heavily is the quantity and severity of 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.
