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. It does not appear that this nursing home submitted information on registered nurse or physical therapist staffing. Lastly, we assessed the number of patients that were able to return home from this nursing home. We found that 7 percent of this facility's residents were able to return home.
Facility Inspections
In addition, this facility also received top notch inspections in recent years. We gave them one of our better scores in that category, with a grade of B+. Perhaps the most significant factor we look at in calculating our inspection grades is deficiencies. Deficiencies can be found on a facility's recent inspection reports. Facilities with higher grades in this area typically dodged the more severe deficiencies involving things like patient abuse. While 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 tells you the government inspectors didn't deem any of the deficiencies on this facility's report to pose an imminent threat to patient safety or health. We should note that deficiency-free inspections are uncommon in the industry.

Nurse Quality
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+. In calculating a nursing home's nursing score, we consider the amount of time nurses are caring for residents as well as the level of skill of those nurses. This nursing home provides 0.4 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 nursing home 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 final area we assessed is long-term care, was this nursing home's weakest area. We gave this nursing home a grade of D in this area. This really is one of just a couple of weak points of an otherwise impressive report card. Nursing homes that don't score well in long-term care often don't provide as much nursing care and also may be lagging in some of the areas of routine medical care we assessed. In addition to looking at the volume of care provided by nurses aids and other staff, we analyzed the percentage of residents vaccinated for pneumonia. Candidly, we were a bit bothered by the fact that this nursing home vaccinated just 81.30081 percent of its residents. Surprisingly, this facility was actually able to limit hospitalizations. With just 0.01 hospitalizations per 1,000 long-term resident days, this facility has fewer hospitalizations than the majority of nursing homes. This is its best score in this category.
