Registered Staff Hours
Short-term Care Quality
We also wanted to emphasize that this facility earned an impressive grade of A for short-term care. Our short-term care scores are crucial for residents requiring rehabilitation. Rehabilitation generally requires higher levels of highly-skilled nursing services. Skilled nursing includes a wide scope of services, ranging from registered nurses to physical and respiratory therapists, as well as other types of therapy. Fortunately, it appear that this nursing home has registered nurses on staff. Not every facility employs these types of nurses. However, according to the information they provided, they do not appear to employ physical therapists. The last metric we considered in this category is the number of patients that who were able to eventually return home from the facility. We found that 6 percent of this nursing home's residents returned home as opposed to remaining at the facility on a permanent basis.
Facility Inspections
Adding to its impressive category grades, this nursing home also excelled in the area of inspections, where it earned a grade of A. Few nursing homes performed as well in this area. These inspection grades weigh several factors, including deficiencies and federal fines. You can learn more about each of these items by reviewing copies of nursing homes' inspection reports. This place was assessed 3 deficiencies on its inspection report, but we were relieved to see that none were considered to be major deficiencies. This tells you that CMS did not consider any of these deficiencies to cause an immediate risk to resident safety or health. Finally, this facility had no substantiated complaints this year from residents, which is an excellent sign.
