Short-term Care Quality

Grade: A

In addition to earning a great overall grade, this facility excelled at short-term care. In fact, we gave it an A for that category. In the area of short-term care, we seek to qualify measures of a nursing home's rehabilitation. We analyze the facility's skilled nursing services, such as the ones performed by registered nurses and physical, occupational and other therapists. Fortunately, it appear that this facility employs registered nurses. Not every facility employs these types of nurses. However, based on the data this nursing home provided, they do not appear to employ physical therapists. The last item we looked at in this category is the percentage of patients who were able to leave the facility and return to the community. We found that 6.3 percent of this nursing home's patients returned home.

Long-term Care Quality

Grade: A-minus

Contributing to its high-end resume, this nursing home also was given a superb long-term care grade, with a score of A-. Nursing homes that receive this kind of grade in this category tend to provide consistent 24/7 care to make sure patients are kept in good health. On top of considering the amount of care provided by nurses aids and other staff, we looked at the number of residents vaccinated for pneumonia. This nursing home administered the vaccine to 99.03381 percent of its residents, which is an impressive figure. Pneumonia is often a life threatening condition for nursing home patients so we strongly prefer when a nursing home does not take any chances. Finally, this place was able to limit hospitalizations. In fact, it had only 0.02 hospitalizations per one thousand long-term resident days, which is an impressively low number.

Facility Inspections

Grade: A-minus

We awarded this nursing home a score of A- for our inspections rating. Inspection scores account for a host of factors included in a facility's inspection report. One of the most important criteria we weigh heavily is the number and severity of deficiencies. Facilities with better scores in this area generally have few severe deficiencies. Although this facility had a few deficiencies on its inspection report, none of them were severe based on CMS' deficiency scale. A couple minor deficiencies aren't something to panic about.

Nurse Quality

Grade: B

The last category we assessed was nursing, in which this facility was given a grade of B. Although this proved to be its weakest category rating, this is nevertheless an above average rating. We looked at the levels of nurses at the facility, as well as the quantity of time those nurses spent with patients, in determining our grade in this area. This nursing home averages 0.5 hours of nursing care per resident per day. Finally, our nursing grades also factor in quality-based assessments, such as avoiding major falls. This nursing home performed well in this area. Avoiding major falls is typically a good indicator that a place has reliable quality controls in place. Major falls can generally be avoided if more nurses aids and better safety protocols are in place.
