Long-term Care Quality
In addition to receiving a great overall grade, this facility also received an A+ long-term care grade. Facilities that excel in long-term care typically provide patients with more supervision and stay on top of routine healthcare services. After considering the volume of nursing care, we then looked at the facility's vaccination record. This nursing home vaccinated 100 percent of its residents for pneumonia, which is very impressive. Pneumonia sadly can be a life threatening illness for nursing home patients so we strongly prefer when a nursing home does not leave its residents vulnerable. The last statistic we looked at was its hospitalization rate. We found that this nursing home had 1.89 hospitalizations per 1,000 long-term resident days, which is middle of the road in this area.
Facility Inspections
Adding to its impressive category scores, this nursing home also excelled in the area of inspections, where it received an A. Not many nursing homes performed as well in this area. These inspection grades take several factors into consideration, including deficiencies and federal fines. You can learn more about each of these factors by obtaining copies of nursing homes' inspection reports. This particular nursing home had just a single deficiency on its inspection report and it was not one deemed to pose a threat to patient health or safety. Finally, this facility had no substantiated complaints this year from residents, which is an excellent sign.
Nurse Quality
Adding to its impressive resume, this nursing home also excelled in our nursing category. In fact, we awarded it a grade of A- for that category. The nursing rating is based on numerous factors. The most heavily weighted variable is the number of hours nurses spent with residents. With 4 hours of nursing care per resident each day, this nursing home surpassed the national average. Finally, this nursing home also excelled in the quality-based metrics we looked at. For example, it performed as well as any nursing home the state when it comes to avoiding major falls and pressure ulcers. We look at these statistics as good measures of the caliber of nursing care provided.
Short-term Care Quality
The next category we analyzed is short-term care. This nursing home was awarded a better than average short-term care grade this year, with a grade of C. Even though this isn't nearly as strong as some of its other category grades, this is still a decent score for this category. In computing our short-term care grades, we size up a facility's levels of highly skilled nursing services, which includes registered nurses, physical therapists occupational therapists and other highly skilled individuals. This score is frequently a fair assessment of the nursing home's ability to rehabilitate patients. Fortunately, it looks like this facility employs registered nurses. Not every facility employs these skilled professionals. However, according to the data they provided, it does not look like the facility employs physical therapists. Finally, we considered the number of residents who were able to return to the community from this facility. We found that 0 percent of this facility's patients returned home. At most nursing homes, closer to half of their patients are able to return home so this figure is below average.
