Facility Inspections
In addition to receiving a great overall grade, this facility received an A+ inspection grade. This score is based on the facility's recent government inspections. An A+ in this area is one of the best complements we can offer a facility. We take several aspects of a facility's inspection report into consideration in determining our inspection ratings. One key factor is health deficiencies. You should keep in mind that the severity of these deficiencies is arguably more important than the quantity of deficiencies, as some deficiencies end up being quite minor. Although this nursing home had a few deficiencies on its report, none of them were severe based on CMS' scale. Finally, this facility had no substantiated complaints this year from residents, which is an excellent sign.
Long-term Care Quality
This facility also received an A+ long-term care grade, rendering it one of the few facilities to be awarded multiple A+ category scores. When facilities receive a score in this range in long-term care it generally means it's well-staffed and is a quality place to reside on a permanent basis. In addition to looking at the volume of care provided by nurses aids and other staff, we looked at the number of residents vaccinated for pneumonia. This facility vaccinated 99.23372 percent of its patients, which is significantly higher than most nursing homes. This nursing home also keeps its patients out of the hospital. Indeed, it had only 1.39 hospitalizations per one thousand long-term resident days.
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+. When determining our nursing ratings, we look at both nursing hours and the skill levels of the nurses. This nursing home provides 3.8 hours of nursing care per resident per day. Finally, we also assessed several nursing quality measures and this nursing home excelled in some of these areas. With less than five percent of its residents sustaining pressure ulcers, it performed as well as any place Alabama in this category. This is generally a good indicator of quality nursing care. Pressure ulcers can many times be prevented by providing better nursing care, such as having a policy of moving a patient even once per day.
Short-term Care Quality
This nursing home's least impressive area was short-term care, which is the last area we assessed. In this area, we awarded this nursing home a D. We wanted to draw your attention to this potential weakness, however, you shouldn't dwell on a single bad category either. Short-term care scores are based on a nursing home's quantity of highly-skilled nursing services. This means a broad scope of nursing services, ranging from registered nurses to physical and occupational therapists, as well as other variations of therapy. Unfortunately, we learned that this facility offered fewer physical therapist and registered nurse hours per resident than most nursing homes. The last metric we looked at in this area is the number of patients that returned home from the nursing home. This nursing home struggled quite a bit in this area as well, with just 33 percent of its patients returning home.
