Facility Inspections
One of the reasons this place ended up being a great nursing home is it earned an A+ in our inspections category. This is simply as good as it gets in this critical category. Our inspection scores account for a host of factors included in a nursing home's inspection report. One of the most important criteria we rely on is the number and severity of deficiencies. Places with better grades in this area tend to have very few severe deficiencies. While this place had some deficiencies on its government inspection report, none of them were major deficiencies based on CMS' deficiency scale. We should point out that deficiency-free inspection reports are rare in this industry.
Short-term Care Quality
This facility also was given a strong short-term care score. Indeed, we gave it an above average score of B+ in this area. Our short-term care scores are based in part on a nursing home's quantity of skilled skilled healthcare professionals. This includes a broad spectrum of nursing services, ranging from registered nurses to physical and respiratory therapists, as well as other forms of therapy. This place offered more registered nurse and physical therapist hours per patient than most facilities. This is what we like to find when assessing a facility in this category. The last measure we looked at in this area is the number of residents who were able to leave the nursing home and return to the community. This nursing home was better than average with 50.7 percent of its patients able to return home.
Nurse Quality
This nursing home also received a strong nursing score. In fact, we awarded it an above average grade of B in this area. Our nursing grade includes a host of factors. The most heavily weighted factor is the amount of time nurses spent with patients. With 4.2 hours of nursing care per resident daily, this place surpassed the overwhelming majority of nursing homes. Finally, this nursing home was also above average in each of the major quality measures we assessed in this category. For example, it performed well when it comes to minimizing its residents' major falls and pressure ulcers. These areas are generally reliable indicators of the quality of nursing care a nursing home provides.
Long-term Care Quality
Moving on to our final category, this facility was given an extremely favorable long-term care rating. This nursing home did not turn out to have any weak categories. When facilities receive a score in this range in long-term care it typically means it has plenty of staff and is an overall good place to live on a permanent basis. One of the factors we considered on top of nurse's aid hours is vaccines. This facility provided the pneumonia vaccine to 96.865204 percent of its patients. Vaccination is a great way to minimize unnecessary hospitalizations for the senior population. This place was also able to keep its residents out of the hospital. In fact, it had only 1.22 hospitalizations per one thousand long-term resident days, which is a substantially lower hospitalization rate than the average nursing home.
