Facility Inspections
To pair with its strong overall score, we awarded this place a grade of A+ for our inspection category. Inspection ratings account for a host of factors included in a nursing home's inspection reports. One of the most important criteria we consider is the number and severity of deficiencies. Places with better scores in this area generally have very few severe deficiencies. While this place had a few minor dings on its inspection report, it had zero severe deficiencies. Severe deficiencies are those labeled as categories G through L. This tells you that the government inspectors did not deem any of the deficiencies on this facility's report to pose an imminent threat to patient health or safety. Finally, this facility had no substantiated complaints this year from residents, which is an excellent sign.
Long-term Care Quality
Among its many dominant scores, this facility received a strong long-term care grade. In fact, we awarded it a score of A- in this area. When facilities receive this type of score in this category it is usually a good sign for resident care and suggests that the facility is well-staffed with nurses and aids. In addition to looking at the amount of care provided by nurses and other staff, we analyzed the number of residents vaccinated for pneumonia. This facility provided the vaccine to 99.72752 percent of its residents, which is significantly higher than the vast majority of nursing homes. Finally, this place was able to limit hospitalizations. Indeed, it had only 0.48 hospitalizations per 1,000 long-term resident days, which is an impressively low figure.
Short-term Care Quality
Turning our next category, we gave this facility a grade of A- for its short-term care grade. This is a very strong score. In crafting our short-term care ratings, we analyze the facility's skilled nursing services, such as those performed by registered nurses, occupational therapists, physical therapists and other types of skilled professionals. Our goal is to create a tool for comparing the rehabilitation services of various nursing homes. We were pleased to find that this nursing home employs both registered nurses and physical therapists. The same can't be said for all nursing homes. Lastly, we assessed the number of patients who were able to return to the community from this nursing home. This proved to be a real strength for this facility. This place outperformed the vast majority of nursing homes in the nation with 67.2 percent of its residents returning home. This is a significantly higher rate than most nursing homes.
Nurse Quality
The next area we looked at is this nursing home's weakest category. However, even its weakest link would be a strength for most nursing homes. We awarded it an above average grade of B in nursing. When determining a facility's nursing rating, we weigh the quantity of hours nurses are caring for patients and the skill levels of the nurses. This nursing home averages 3.8 hours of nursing care per resident per day. Finally, we also assessed several nursing quality-based metrics and this nursing home excelled in some of these areas. With less than five percent of its residents sustaining pressure ulcers, it performed as well as any nursing home the nation in this category. This is generally a good indicator of quality nursing care. Pressure ulcers can generally be prevented by offering better nursing care, such as by employing a system of moving a resident at least once a day.
