Grade: A-plus

On top of faring well overall, this facility received high marks in our short-term care rating as well. It received our highest score in that category with a score of A+. Our short-term care grades are based in part on a nursing home's quantity of skilled highly skilled professionals. This includes a broad 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 types of nurses. However, according to the data this nursing home provided, they do not appear to employ physical therapists. Finally, we looked at the number of patients who were able to return to the community from this facility. We found that 6 percent of this facility's residents returned home.

Grade: A-minus

Turning the page to our next category, we gave this facility a score of A- for our long-term care rating. This is a first-rate grade. When nursing homes receive this kind of score in long-term care it is typically a good sign for resident care and indicates that the nursing home is well-staffed with nurses aids. After assessing the quantity of care provided by nurses aids and other staff, we then analyzed the nursing home's vaccination statistics. This facility vaccinated 99.5984 percent of its residents for pneumonia, which is much higher than the average nursing home. Lastly, this place was able to limit hospitalizations. In fact, it had less than one hospitalization per one thousand long-term resident days, which is a remarkably low number.

Facility Inspections

Grade: A-minus

Lastly, this facility also earned a nearly flawless inspection report. As a result, it earned one of our highest grades in that category with an A-. With this impressive grade, this place is one of the few facilities in Minnesota to earn straight A's. Perhaps the most critical factor we consider in calculating our inspection grades is deficiencies. Deficiencies are found on a nursing home's inspection reports. Nursing homes with better scores in this area typically avoided the most severe deficiencies involving health risks or even death. This nursing home received 3 deficiencies on its inspection report, but fortunately none were considered to be severe deficiencies. This tells you that CMS did not deem any of the deficiencies to create an immediate threat to resident health or safety. Finally, this facility had no substantiated complaints this year from residents, which is an excellent sign.
