Facility Inspections

Grade: A

On top of faring well overall, this nursing home earned a nearly flawless inspection report. Consequently, we gave it one of our highest grades in that category with an A. Our inspection ratings weigh a host of factors found on a nursing home's inspection report. One of the most important criteria we rely on is the quantity and severity of deficiencies. Nursing homes with higher scores in this area typically have few severe deficiencies. While this nursing home had some deficiencies on its government inspection report, none of them were serious based on CMS' scale. Finally, this facility had no substantiated complaints this year from residents, which is an excellent sign.

Nurse Quality

Grade: A-minus

One of the other reasons we graded this facility so highly is that it received a very impressive nursing score. Nursing proved to be its second best category grade. In that category, we gave this facility a grade of A-. Nursing grades are based largely on quantity of nursing care available. This nursing home provides 0.6 hours of nursing care per resident per day. Lastly, we also looked at some nursing quality measures in determining our nursing grades. This facility performed very well in the area of minimizing its residents' major falls and pressure ulcers. We consider these areas to be good indicators of the quality of nursing care.

Long-term Care Quality

Grade: A-minus

The third category we analyzed was long-term care. Adding to its top-shelf resume, this facility also performed well in that category. In fact, we awarded it a of A- in the area. Facilities that excel in long-term care typically are well-staffed and provide extensive hands on care to patients. After looking at the volume of care provided by nurses and other staff, we turned to the nursing home's vaccination records. This facility vaccinated 100 percent of its residents against pneumonia, which is much higher than the majority of nursing homes. Clearly, this nursing home is doing something right in this area as it also excelled at keeping its patients out of the hospital. In fact, it had less than one hospitalization per 1,000 long-term resident days, which is a remarkably low figure.

Short-term Care Quality

Grade: B

The last area we analyzed is short-term care. This facility was given a better than average nursing grade in our assessment, with a B. Even though this isn't quite as elite as some of its other grades, this is nevertheless one of the more favorable scores in that area. In the category of short-term care, we strive to evaluate indicators of a nursing home's rehabilitation. We look at a nursing home's skilled nursing services, including those performed by registered nurses and physical and occupational therapists. Fortunately, it looks like this nursing home employs registered nurses. Not every facility employs these types of nurses. However, based on the information this nursing home provided, they do not appear to employ physical therapists. Finally, we considered the percentage of patients who were able to return to the community from this nursing home. We found that 3.6 percent of this facility's residents returned home.
