Facility Inspections
We also wanted to point out this facility's nearly flawless inspections in recent years. We gave them a grade of B+ in this category. Our inspection ratings weigh several factors found on a nursing home's inspection reports. One of the most important criteria we consider is the quantity and severity of deficiencies. Nursing homes with higher grades in this category typically have very few of these severe deficiencies. While this place had a few deficiencies on its government inspection report, none of them were severe based on CMS' scale. Remember that deficiency-free inspections are rare in the industry.
Long-term Care Quality
The next category we looked at was long-term care, in which this nursing home received a B. Believe it or not, this is this nursing home's least impressive category. A facility could be doing a lot worse when their weakest grade still is better than most facilities. Facilities that receive this kind of score in this category typically provide consistent 24/7 care to make sure residents are kept in good health. On top of assessing the quantity of care provided by aids and other staff, we analyzed the percentage of residents vaccinated against pneumonia. This facility vaccinated 71.93676 percent of its patients, which is a bit less than we were hoping for. Clearly, this nursing home is doing something right in this area as it was able to keep its patients out of the hospital. It had less than one hospitalization per one thousand long-term resident days, which is an impressively low figure.
