Short-term Care Quality
This facility received an elite short-term care score. In fact, we gave this nursing home a grade of A in this category, which really helped its overall score. Short-term care grades are often employed to gauge a nursing home's performance with rehabilitation. To provide high-end rehabilitation services, facilities generally need to feature better levels of highly skilled nursing services. These types of services include registered nurses, physical therapists, occupational therapists and other highly trained professionals. One of this nursing home's strength is that it offers more hours of care from registered nurses to its residents. The last metric we looked at in this category is the number of patients who were able to leave the nursing home and return to the community. We found that it performed as well as just about any facility in Washington in this area with 58.8 percent of its residents returning home.
Nurse Quality
This nursing home also received a strong grade in our nursing category. We awarded this nursing home an above average grade of B+ in this area. Our nursing grade is primarily based on a facility's level of nurse staffing. This particular nursing home provided 3.7 hours of nursing care per resident per day. Finally, we also assessed certain nursing quality measures in computing our nursing grades. These include minimizing residents' pressure ulcers and major falls. We view these datapoints as predictive indicators of the caliber of nursing care being provided, since better care tends to reduce these problems.
Facility Inspections
This facility earned a solid inspection report this year as well, with few dings from the applicable government inspectors. As a result, it received one of our better grades in that category with a score of B-. Inspection grades are tied to several datapoints located in the a nursing home's recent inspection reports. Deficiencies are a key thing to look for on these reports. Severe deficiencies indicate a threat to patient safety. This particular nursing home received 11 deficiencies on its inspection report. Overall, this is still a good inspection report, but we'd always recommend looking into any deficiencies you find troubling.
Long-term Care Quality
The last area we looked at is long-term care, turned out to be this facility's least impressive category. We gave this nursing home a D in this category. This is one of just a few weak links in an otherwise impressive report card. For residents seeking a permanent place to live as opposed to rehabilitation, long-term care is an important category. In addition to looking at the quantity of care provided by nurses and other staff, we looked at the percentage of residents vaccinated against pneumonia. Thankfully, this nursing home provided the vaccine to 93.95605 percent of its patients, which is a very solid total. Surprisingly, this nursing home was able to limit hospitalizations. With only 0 hospitalizations per 1,000 long-term resident days, this nursing home had fewer hospitalizations than most nursing homes. Sadly, some of its other scores in the category were not as favorable as these.
