Facility Inspections
One of the reasons this place is a strong nursing home is that it received an impressive inspection rating. In fact, inspections is its best category. In this area, we gave this facility an A-. Our inspection grades are based on many datapoints found on the a nursing home's recent inspection reports. Facilities that excel in this area have few deficiencies on those reports. Most importantly, these facilities should not have any severe deficiencies which are associated with risks to patient safety. This place received 5 deficiencies on its inspection report, but fortunately none were considered severe. This tells you that the inspectors didn't deem any of the deficiencies to cause an imminent threat 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
We also gave this facility a grade of A- for our long-term care score. Long-term care ratings of this caliber generally require both 24/7 care from nurses and aids, as well as quality routine healthcare services. In addition to considering the volume of care provided by aids and other staff, we analyzed the number of residents vaccinated against pneumonia. This nursing home administered the vaccine to 100 percent of its residents, which is significantly higher than the vast majority of nursing homes. Clearly, this facility is doing something right in this area as it also excelled at keeping its residents out of the hospital. In fact, it had only 0 hospitalizations per 1,000 long-term resident days, which is an impressively low number.

In our short-term care grade, we try to forge a sound barometer for rehabilitation. In doing so, we look at the facility's level of highly-skilled nursing services, including both registered nurses and physical therapy, as well as speech therapy. Unfortunately, we were not able to locate information on registered nurse or physical therapy staffing for this nursing home. Lastly, we looked at the percentage of patients who ultimately were able to return home from this nursing home. We found that 6.8 percent of this nursing home's residents returned home.
Nurse Quality
Switching gears to the next area, this nursing home was awarded an acceptable nursing rating. While this wasn't quite as good as some of its other scores, this is really not a bad grade. In determining our nursing ratings, we analyze both the number of hours nurses spend with residents and the training levels of those nurses. This place provides 0.3 hours of nursing care per patient on a daily basis. This is a much lower figure than we are used to seeing. Lastly, we also looked at several nursing quality measures. While this facility got docked a bit for its nursing hours per resident, it excelled in a few of these quality measures. With less than five percent of its patients experiencing pressure ulcers, it performed remarkably well in this area. This is generally a good indicator of quality nursing care. Pressure ulcers can many times be prevented by providing better nursing care, such as having a system of moving a resident at least once a day.
