Facility Inspections

Grade: A-plus

In addition to being a great overall grade, this facility also received A+ health inspections in recent years. Its inspections were virtually flawless. We take several aspects of a facility's inspection report into consideration in calculating our inspection grades. One critical factor is deficiencies. You should keep in mind that the severity of deficiencies is usually more meaningful than the quantity of deficiencies, as some of these can be quite minor. It does not look like we have deficiency data for this nursing home. Finally, this facility had no substantiated complaints this year from residents, which is an excellent sign.

Long-term Care Quality

Grade: A-plus

An additional reason we assessed this nursing home so highly is that it received an A+ long-term care score. This is flat out as strong as it gets in this category. When facilities receive this type of score in this category it is typically a good sign for resident care and indicates that the place is well-staffed with nurses and aids. Once we assessed the amount of nursing care, we next considered the nursing home's vaccination records. This facility vaccinated 99.5122 percent of its patients against pneumonia, which is what we like to see. Pneumonia is too frequently a life threatening health condition for nursing home residents so we prefer when a facility does not take any chances. Clearly, this nursing home is doing something right in this area as it also excelled at keeping its residents out of the hospital. In fact, it had only 0.01 hospitalizations per one thousand long-term resident days, which is a remarkably low number.

Nurse Quality

Grade: A

We also wanted to emphasize the fact that this facility received an impressive grade of A in our nursing category. There are a number of subcategories included in this grade. Most of these criteria reflect nurse staffing. This nursing home averages 0.4 hours of nursing care per resident per day. Lastly, we also assessed some nursing quality-based metrics in determining our nursing grades. This place performed very well in terms of minimizing its residents' major falls and pressure ulcers. We consider these areas to be good indicators of the quality of nursing care.

Short-term Care Quality

Grade: B-plus

Switching gears to the next category, this facility also performed well in our short-term care category. We awarded it a grade of B+ in this category. This wrapped up a first-rate profile. Short-term care ratings are important for prospective residents requiring rehabilitation. Rehabilitation generally utilizes more skilled nursing. This means a broad spectrum of nursing services, spanning from registered nurses to physical and occupational therapists, as well as other forms of therapy. Fortunately, it appear that this facility employs registered nurses. Not all nursing homes employs these skilled professionals. On the other hand, based on the data this nursing home provided, they do not appear to employ physical therapists. Lastly, we considered the percentage of patients that who were able to eventually return home from this nursing home. We found that 3.5 percent of this facility's patients returned home.
