Registered Staff Hours
Short-term Care Quality
In addition to receiving a strong overall score, this facility also earned an elite short-term care grade. We gave them one of our higher grades in that area, with an A. Short-term care ratings are based in part on the nursing home's quantity of highly-skilled skilled healthcare professionals. This means a vast spectrum of nursing services, spanning from registered nurses to physical and speech therapists, in addition to other forms of therapy. Fortunately, it appear that this facility has registered nurses on staff. Not all nursing homes employs these skilled professionals. On the other hand, based on the information this nursing home provided, it does not look like the facility employs physical therapists. Finally, we assessed the number of residents who eventually returned home from this facility. We found that 7.1 percent of this facility's patients returned home.
Facility Inspections
Adding to its impressive profile, this facility also performed at a high level in the category of inspections. In fact, it earned a nearly flawless inspection report this year. As a result, it earned one of our best grades in that area with an B+. Inspection ratings weigh several factors, including deficiencies, substantiated complaints and federal fines. You can find more information about each of these items by reviewing copies of nursing homes' inspection reports. While this nursing home had some minor dings on its report, it had zero severe deficiencies. Severe deficiencies are labeled as categories G, H, I, J, K and L. This means the inspectors did not deem any of the deficiencies on this facility's report to pose an imminent threat to patient safety or health. A couple minor dings aren't the end of the world.

Another one of this facility's impressive category grades came in the area of nursing care. We awarded them one of our better scores in that area, with a grade of B+. When computing our nursing ratings, we assess both staffing levels and the training levels of the nurses. This nursing home provides 0.3 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 many times be avoided if more nurses aids and better safety protocols are in place.
Long-term Care Quality
The next category we analyzed is long-term care, which proved to be this nursing home's least impressive category. We awarded this nursing home a D in this category. Sadly, this category pulled down the nursing home's overall profile to some degree. When facilities receive a score in this range in long-term care it generally means the facility did not perform well in our measures relating to resident care. After considering the quantity of care provided by nurses and other staff, we then analyzed the nursing home's vaccination records. We were a bit concerned this facility vaccinated 76.388885 percent of its residents for pneumonia, which happens to be significantly below average. Surprisingly, this place was actually able to limit hospitalizations. With only 0.01 hospitalizations per 1,000 long-term resident days, this nursing home has less hospitalizations than the average nursing home. This was its best score in this category.
