Long-term Care Quality
We also wanted to emphasize the fact that this facility received an impressive grade of A in our long-term care category. When nursing homes receive a score in this range in long-term care it generally means it has plenty of staff and is a quality place to reside on a permanent basis. On top of considering the volume of care provided by nurses and other staff, we looked at the percentage of residents vaccinated for pneumonia. This nursing home gave the vaccine to 100 percent of its residents, which is very impressive. Pneumonia is often a dangerous condition for nursing home residents so we prefer when a facility does not take any chances. Finally, this place was able to limit hospitalizations. It had only 0.75 hospitalizations per one thousand long-term resident days, which is a remarkably low number.
Facility Inspections
This facility has received near flawless health inspections in recent years. We awarded them an impressive grade of A in this category. We weigh several aspects of a nursing home's inspection report in determining our inspection grades. One critical factor is deficiencies. It should be noted that the severity of deficiencies is usually more meaningful than the quantity of deficiencies, as some deficiencies end up being quite insignificant. 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
This nursing home also received a very impressive nursing grade. In that area, we awarded this facility a grade of A. Our nursing grade assesses the nursing home's nurse staffing levels. We weigh both the levels of training of the nurses and the amount of time spent with patients. With 4 hours of nursing care per resident per day, this nursing home surpassed the national average. Lastly, this facility also excelled in the quality-based metrics we assessed. It performed as well as any facility the nation in terms of minimizing its residents' pressure ulcers and major falls.
Short-term Care Quality
The next area we assessed is short-term care, in which this nursing home was awarded a grade of B. Believe it or not, this was this facility's worst category. A facility could be doing a lot worse when their lowest score still outperforms most facilities. Our short-term care grades are critical for patients in need of rehabilitation. Rehabilitation generally mandates more highly-skilled nursing services. Skilled nursing includes a wide range of services, ranging from registered nurses to physical and respiratory therapists, as well as other variations of therapy. One of this nursing home's strength is that it offers more hours of physical therapy per week to its residents. The last item we looked at in this area is the number of patients who were able to leave the facility and return to the community. We discovered that 43.3 percent of this facility's residents were able to return home.
