Facility Inspections
On top of being a strong facility overall, it also received A+ government inspections in recent years. Its inspections are virtually perfect. We weigh several aspects of a nursing home's inspection report in calculating these inspection grades. One critical factor is deficiencies. You should keep in mind that the severity of these deficiencies is arguably more meaningful than the number of deficiencies, as some can be quite minor. While this nursing home had some deficiencies on its report, none were severe based on CMS' deficiency scale. Finally, this facility had no substantiated complaints this year from residents, which is an excellent sign.
Long-term Care Quality
Another one of this facility's above average category scores came in the area of long-term care. We awarded them one of our higher scores in that area, with a grade of B. Facilities that do well in long-term care typically are well-staffed and provide extensive hands on care to residents. In addition to considering the amount of care provided by nurses aids and other staff, we also looked at the number of residents vaccinated against pneumonia. This facility administered the vaccine to 94.17476 percent of its patients, which is more than the majority of nursing homes. This nursing home also keeps its residents out of the hospital. It had just 1.11 hospitalizations per 1,000 long-term resident days, which is a significantly better hospitalization rate than most nursing homes.
Short-term Care Quality
In addition, this nursing home also received favorable short-term care scores in our assessment. In fact, we awarded them one of our better scores in that category, with a score of B. In the area of short-term care, we attempt to qualify measures of a facility's rehabilitation. We look at the facility's skilled nursing services, including those performed by registered nurses and physical therapists. This nursing home provides more services with physical therapists and registered nurses than most nursing homes we looked at. This is usually a favorable sign. The final statistic we looked at in this area is the percentage of residents who were able to leave the facility and return to the community. We found that it was respectable in this area with 48.9 percent of its residents able to return home.
Nurse Quality
The next area we assessed is nursing, where this nursing home received a grade of B. This facility didn't turn out to have any weak links. When determining a nursing home's nursing score, we assess the quantity of hours nurses are seeing residents as well as the level of licensure of the nurses. This particular nursing home provided 3.5 hours of nursing care per resident per day. Finally, our nursing grades also factor in quality-based assessments, such as avoiding major falls. This nursing home performed well in this area. Avoiding major falls is typically a good indicator that a place has reliable quality controls in place. Major falls can frequently be avoided if more nurses aids and better safety protocols are in place.
