For example, this facility provided the pneumonia vaccine to 98.590225 percent of its patients, which is very impressive. Lastly, we looked at the nursing home's number of hospitalizations. With 1.85 hospitalizations per 1,000 long-term resident days, this facility is close to average in this area.
Short-term Care Quality
We also wanted to direct your attention to the fact that this facility excelled in our short-term care category. We gave them an impressive score of A+ in this area. In the area of short-term care, we strive to qualify indicators of a facility's rehabilitation services. We analyze the facility's skilled nursing services, such as those performed by registered nurses and physical, occupational and other therapists. This facility elevated its grade in this category by offering more care from registered nurses to its patients than the average facility. The final datapoint we assessed in this category is the percentage of residents who returned home from the facility. We found that it fared as well as just about any nursing home in California with 62.1 percent of its patients returning home.
Nurse Quality
This nursing home also received an A+ for its nursing grade. The nursing grade consists of many subcategories, most of which are based on nursing hours. This nursing home provided 4.7 hours of nursing care per resident per day. This was one of the highest totals we found. In addition, a significant portion of this care was provided by registered nurses, which are highly skilled nurses. On top of providing high levels of care, this nursing home also performed well in several of the quality measures we assessed. By way of illustration, in terms of the percentage of its residents suffering from pressure ulcers, this nursing home performed better than the national average. This is usually a good indicator that a facility has reliable quality controls. Pressure ulcers can frequently be prevented with better nursing care and having a policy of regularly turning patients to prevent bed sores.
Facility Inspections
Lastly, this nursing home also earned top notch inspections in recent years. We gave them one of our better scores in that category, with a score of B+. Perhaps the most important factor we look at in computing our inspection grades is deficiencies. Deficiencies are found on a facility's inspection reports. Places with higher grades in this category most likely dodged the more severe deficiencies involving patient abuse or death. Although this place had some deficiencies on its government inspection report, none of them were major deficiencies based on CMS' scale. Keep in mind that deficiency-free inspection reports are uncommon in the industry.
