Facility Inspections

Grade: A-plus

We also wanted to emphasize that this nursing home has received near flawless inspections in recent years. We awarded them an impressive grade of A+ in this category. These inspection grades weigh several factors, including deficiencies and substantiated complaints. You can learn more about each of these factors by reviewing copies of nursing homes' inspection reports. 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-minus

Adding to its strong assessments in other areas, we gave this facility a score of A- for our short-term care rating. In the category of short-term care, we try to evaluate measures of a facility's rehabilitation. We analyze a nursing home's skilled nursing services, including those performed by registered nurses and physical and occupational therapists. Fortunately, it looks like this facility has registered nurses on staff. Not every facility employs these skilled professionals. However, based on the data they provided, they do not appear to employ physical therapists. Lastly, we assessed the number of patients who were able to return home from this facility. We found that 5.4 percent of this facility's residents were able to return home.

Long-term Care Quality

Grade: B-plus

Turning to the next category, this nursing home also received a score of B+ for its long-term care rating. This is a well above average grade in this area. Nursing homes that receive this kind of score in this category tend to provide consistent around the clock care to make sure residents are kept in good health. After looking at the amount of care provided by nurses aids and other staff, we next considered the nursing home's vaccination records. This nursing home vaccinated 99.250374 percent of its patients against pneumonia, which is significantly higher than the vast majority of nursing homes. Clearly, this place is doing something right in this area as it also excelled at keeping its residents out of the hospital. It had only 0.01 hospitalizations per 1,000 long-term resident days, which is a remarkably low figure.

Nurse Quality

Grade: B-minus

The next area we analyzed is nursing. This nursing home was given an impressive nursing grade this year, with a B-. Although this was not nearly as elite as many of its other grades, this is nevertheless a decent rating in that category. Our nursing score analyzes a handful of data points, however, the primary consideration is the number of nurse hours spent with patients. This place averages just 0.3 hours of nursing care per patient on a daily basis, which is not an impressive total. Lastly, despite not having the most impressive total nursing hours, this nursing home actually performed admirably in the area of preventing major falls. This is generally an indicator that a nursing home has sufficient quality controls in place.
