Registered Staff Hours
Facility Inspections
In addition to receiving an elite overall grade, this facility received an A+ inspection rating. This is based on the facility's recent government inspections. An A+ in this area is one of the best complements we can offer a facility. We take several aspects of a facility's inspection report into consideration in determining our inspection scores. One of those factors is health deficiencies. It should be noted that the severity of deficiencies is arguably more important than the number of deficiencies, as some are quite insignificant. This facility received 2 deficiencies on its inspection report, but fortunately none were considered to be severe. This tells you that CMS did not deem any of these deficiencies an immediate risk to patient safety or health. Finally, this facility had no substantiated complaints this year from residents, which is an excellent sign.
Long-term Care Quality
In addition, this facility received high marks in the area of long-term care. As a result, it received one of our best scores in that category with a score of A+. Nursing homes that excel in this category typically provide patients with more supervision and stay on top of routine medical care. In addition to looking at the amount of care provided by aids and other staff, we looked at the percentage of residents vaccinated for pneumonia. This nursing home vaccinated 100 percent of its patients, which is much higher than the majority of nursing homes. Finally, this place was able to limit hospitalizations. It had less than one hospitalization per one thousand long-term resident days, which is a remarkably low figure.

Nurse Quality
We also wanted to emphasize the fact that this facility received an impressive grade of A- in our nursing category. When determining our nursing scores, we analyze both nursing hours and the levels of licensure of those nurses. This facility provided 0.4 hours of nursing care per resident per day. Finally, our nursing grades also factor in quality-based assessments, such as avoiding major falls. This nursing home performed well in this area. Avoiding major falls is typically a good indicator that a place has reliable quality controls in place. Major falls can often be avoided if more nurses aids and better safety protocols are in place.
Short-term Care Quality
Switching gears to our fourth area, this nursing home received a respectable short-term care rating. While this is not nearly as strong as a few of its other grades, this is really not a bad grade. In determining these short-term care grades, we quantify the nursing home's skilled nursing services, such as those performed by registered nurses, respiratory therapists, physical therapists and other types of skilled professionals. The goal is to formulate a scale for comparing the rehabilitation services of different facilities. Fortunately, it appear that this facility has registered nurses on staff. Not all facilities employs these skilled professionals. However, based on the data they provided, it does not look like the facility employs physical therapists. Lastly, we looked at the number of patients who were able to return to the community from this facility. We found that 1.6 percent of this facility's patients returned home. At most facilities, closer to half of their patients are able to return home so this figure is below average.
