Facility Inspections
One of the reasons this place ended up being a great nursing home is that it received an A+ in our inspections category. This is just about as good as it gets in this category. These inspection scores weigh several factors, including deficiencies, substantiated complaints and federal fines. You can find more information about each of these factors by reviewing copies of nursing homes' inspection reports. While this nursing home had a few minor dings on its government inspection report, it had no severe deficiencies. Severe deficiencies are ones found in categories G, H, I, J, K and L. This tells you the government inspectors did not consider any of the deficiencies on this facility's report to pose an imminent threat to patient health or safety. We should note that deficiency-free inspections are uncommon in the industry.
Short-term Care Quality
Adding to its first-rate profile, this nursing home also excelled in our short-term care area. In fact, we gave it a grade of A for the area. In the category of short-term care, we seek to assess indicators of a nursing home's rehabilitation. We look at a facility's skilled nursing services, including those performed by registered nurses and physical, occupational and other therapists. We were not able to track down information about this nursing home's registered nurse or physical therapy staffing. The last statistic we considered in this area is the number of patients who were able to leave the nursing home and return home. This place performed as well as just about any nursing home in Utah with 66.1 percent of its patients returning home. At most nursing homes, fewer than half of their short-term residents are able to return home.
Nurse Quality
Adding to its profile, this facility also earned a grade of B+ for its nursing rating. This is a well above average score in this category. Our nursing rating includes quite a few factors, many of which are tied to nursing hours. This nursing home averages 0 hours of nursing care per resident per day. Finally, our nursing grades also factor in quality-based assessments, such as avoiding major falls. This facility 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 prevented if more nurses aids and better safety protocols are in place.
Long-term Care Quality
The last category we graded was long-term care, in which this nursing home received a grade of B-. While this wound up being its poorest category rating, this is still not a poor grade. Our long-term care grade is commonly used to assess a facility's performance as a traditional convalescent home, as opposed to focusing more on the skilled nursing services provided by a skilled nursing facility. After considering the quantity of care provided by nurses and other staff, we turned to the nursing home's vaccination records. Unfortunately, we weren't able to track down this facility's vaccination rates. Finally, this facility was able to limit hospitalizations. Indeed, it had less than one hospitalization per 1,000 long-term resident days, which is a remarkably low number.
