Facility Inspections
We want to draw your attention to the fact that this facility outperformed its overall score in the category of inspections. In fact, it received a nearly flawless government inspection report this year. As a result, it received one of our highest grades in this category with an A. Inspection scores are tied to items found on the a nursing home's recent inspection reports. Facilities that excel in this area have few deficiencies on their reports. Most importantly, these places generally do not have any severe deficiencies which are associated with risks to patient safety. Fortunately, although this facility had a few minor dings on its inspection report, it had no severe deficiencies. Severe deficiencies are ones labeled as categories G through L. This means the inspectors didn't deem any of the deficiencies on this facility's report to pose an imminent threat 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
This nursing home also excelled in the area of long-term care, where we awarded it a score of A-. Very few facilities fared better in this category. When facilities receive a score in this range in long-term care it generally means it has plenty of staff and is a quality place to live on a permanent basis. Once we concluded our assessment of the amount of care provided by nurses, we next considered the nursing home's vaccination records. This nursing home vaccinated 99.10715 percent of its residents against pneumonia, which is very impressive. Pneumonia can be a life or death condition for nursing home residents so we like it when a facility doesn't roll the dice on this issue. Lastly, we looked at its number of hospitalizations. We found that this facility had 2.69 hospitalizations per one thousand long-term resident days.
Short-term Care Quality
This facilities third best category is short-term care. We gave it a grade of C in this category. This is basically a slightly below average grade in this area. Short-term care grades are based in part on the facility's quantity of skilled highly skilled professionals. This means a vast range of services, spanning from registered nurses to physical and respiratory therapists, as well as other forms of therapy. We were pleased to find that this nursing home employs both registered nurses and physical therapists. The same can't be said for all nursing homes. Finally, we considered the number of patients that eventually returned home from this facility. We found that 0 percent of this facility's patients were able to return home. This figure was quite a bit below average.
Nurse Quality
This nursing home's weakest area is nursing, which is the final category we scored. We gave it an F in this category. In spite of multiple acceptable scores in other categories, this grade is nevertheless of a concern so we felt obligated to point it out. Our nursing rating analyzes several data points, but the primary one is the quantity of nurse hours spent with patients. Quantity of nursing care does not appear to be the problem here. Based on the data, it looks like this place provides an above average 3.9 hours per resident each day. This is more nursing care than most facilities offer. Despite performing well in terms of nursing hours, this facility didn't perform as well in the quality-based measures we looked at in computing our nursing scores. We looked at the percent of residents experiencing pressure ulcers and major falls. This place was above the national average in both metrics. This is not a good sign when you consider that many falls and bed sores are preventable with better nursing care. These statistics dragged down this nursing home's nursing score quite a bit.
