Facility Inspections
This facility earned a solid overall grade as described above, but we really wanted to emphasize its nearly flawless health inspection reports in recent years. We awarded them an A+ in this category. Inspection scores take several factors into consideration, including deficiencies and substantiated complaints. You can find more information about each of these factors by obtaining copies of nursing homes' inspection reports. While this place had some deficiencies on its government inspection report, none were serious based on CMS' deficiency scale. Finally, this facility had no substantiated complaints this year from residents, which is always a good sign.
Long-term Care Quality
This facility also received a favorable grade in our long-term care category. We gave this facility a better than average grade of B in that category. Facilities that receive this kind of score in long-term care tend to provide consistent 24/7 care to ensure residents are well cared for. On top of looking at the quantity of care provided by nurses and other staff, we analyzed the percentage of residents vaccinated against pneumonia. This nursing home provided the vaccine to 98.28081 percent of its residents, which is more than most nursing homes. Clearly, this place is doing something right in this area as it was able to keep its patients out of the hospital. Indeed, it had only 0.77 hospitalizations per one thousand long-term resident days, which is an impressively low number.
Short-term Care Quality
The next category we looked at is short-term care, where this facility received a grade of C in this category. In determining our short-term care scores, we assess a facility's levels of skilled nursing, which includes registered nurses, physical therapists occupational therapists and other licensed professionals. This grade is frequently a useful measure of the nursing home's ability to rehabilitate patients. This nursing home employs both physical therapists and registered nurses. Not all facilities employ these skilled professionals. The last statistic we assessed in this category is the number of residents who were able to return home from the nursing home. We found that it fared respectably with 48.9 percent of its patients returning home.
Nurse Quality
The last area we analyzed was nursing. It received a lowly F in this category, which is an abysmal score. This is clearly a significant disappointment. We scrutinized the levels of nurses employed by the nursing home, as well as the quantity of time those nurses were with patients, in calculating our grade in this category. This facility averaged a meager 3.2 hours of nursing care per patient per day. This is an alarmingly low total. To pair with its low totals in the area of nursing hours per resident, this place also did not perform as well in the quality-based measures we looked at in calculating our nursing ratings. We looked at the percent of residents experiencing major falls and pressure ulcers. This place had more pressure ulcers and falls than the average nursing home.
