Facility Inspections

Grade: A-plus

On top of receiving an elite overall rating, this nursing home also earned an A+ inspection grade. This score is based on its recent inspection reports. An A+ in this category is one of the best complements we can offer a nursing home. Perhaps the most critical factor we consider in determining our inspection ratings is deficiencies. Deficiencies are found on a nursing home's inspection reports. Places with better scores in this category most likely dodged the most severe deficiencies involving patient abuse or death. This nursing home received 2 deficiencies on its inspection report, but we were relieved to see that none were considered to be severe deficiencies. This means that CMS did not deem any of the deficiencies an immediate risk 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

To complement its impressive accomplishments in other areas, we awarded this nursing home a grade of A for our long-term care rating. When facilities receive this kind of score in this category it is a good sign for patient care and indicates that the place is well-staffed with nurses and aids. In addition to assessing the volume of care provided by aids and other staff, we analyzed the percentage of residents vaccinated for pneumonia. This nursing home vaccinated 98.80305 percent of its patients. Vaccines are vital to keeping residents out of the hospital. Clearly, this facility is doing something right in this area as it also excelled at keeping its patients out of the hospital. Indeed, it had only 0.01 hospitalizations per 1,000 long-term resident days, which is an impressively low figure.

Short-term Care Quality

Grade: A

The next category we analyzed is short-term care. Adding to its dominant profile, this facility also performed well in this area. In fact, we awarded it a grade of of A in that area. Our short-term care grades are presumably most important for people requiring rehabilitation from their nursing home. Rehabilitation generally mandates more highly-skilled nursing. Skilled nursing includes not only nursing services, but also physical and speech therapy, as well as other forms of therapy. Fortunately, it looks like this facility employs registered nurses. Not all facilities employs these skilled professionals. However, based on the data this nursing home provided, they do not appear to employ physical therapists. The last measure we assessed in this category is the number of residents who were able to leave the nursing home and return to the community. We discovered that 6.2 percent of this nursing home's patients were able to return home.

Nurse Quality

Grade: B-plus

In our final area, this nursing home also was given an excellent nursing grade, with a grade of B+. This topped off an elite profile. The nursing score assesses several subcategories, most of which are based on levels of nurse staffing. This nursing home provides 0.4 hours of nursing care per resident per day. Finally, we also looked at certain nursing quality-based metrics in computing our nursing grades. These include minimizing residents' pressure ulcers and major falls. We view these statistics as good indicators of the quality of nursing care being provided, since better care tends to reduce these problems.
