Nurse Quality

Grade: A-plus

In addition to receiving a great overall grade, this nursing home received an A+ for nursing. There are quite a few factors within this grade. Most of these factors relate to the quantity of nurse staffing. This nursing home averages 0.6 hours of nursing care per resident per day. Finally, we also assessed several nursing quality measures and this place excelled in some of these areas. With less than five percent of its residents sustaining pressure ulcers, it performed as well as any facility the nation in this category. This is generally a good indicator of quality nursing care. Pressure ulcers can frequently be avoided by providing better nursing care, such as by employing a system of turning a patient more frequently.

Facility Inspections

Grade: A

Adding to this facility's impressive resume, we awarded this nursing home a grade of A for our inspections rating. Inspection ratings take several factors into consideration, including deficiencies and substantiated complaints. You can find more information about each of these items by reviewing copies of nursing homes' inspection reports. Although this nursing home had a few deficiencies on its government inspection report, none of them were major deficiencies based on CMS' scale. The fact that the deficiencies were relatively minor made us feel better about this inspection report.

Long-term Care Quality

Grade: A-minus

Turning our third area, this nursing home was awarded a top-shelf long-term care score. In fact, we awarded it a score of A- in this category. If you are looking for services other than rehabilitation, you should take a close look at each facility's long-term care grades. Once we concluded our assessment of the amount of nursing care, we then analyzed the nursing home's vaccination data. This nursing home vaccinated 86.34146 percent of its patients for pneumonia. Although its vaccination rate was a bit lower than we like to see, at least this place was able to limit hospitalizations. In fact, it had less than one hospitalization per one thousand long-term resident days, which is an impressively low number.

Short-term Care Quality

Grade: B-plus

Moving on to the next category, this nursing home also performed well in the short-term care category. In fact, we awarded it a grade of B+ in this category. This completed a very strong profile. In the area of short-term care, we endeavor to evaluate indicators of a nursing home's rehabilitation services. We assess a facility's skilled nursing services, including those performed by registered nurses and physical and occupational therapists. Fortunately, it looks like this nursing home has registered nurses on staff. Not every nursing home employs these skilled professionals. However, according to the information this nursing home provided, they do not appear to employ physical therapists. Lastly, we assessed the number of patients that eventually returned home from this facility. We found that 3.2 percent of this facility's residents were able to return home.
