Long-term Care Quality
This facility really fared well in the area of long-term care, where it received an A. Facilities that receive this type of score in this category tend to provide consistent around the clock care to ensure residents are well cared for. After considering the amount of nursing care, we turned to the facility's vaccination statistics. This nursing home vaccinated 98.92857 percent of its residents against pneumonia, which is what we like to see. Pneumonia can be a deadly health condition for nursing home residents so we strongly prefer when a facility does not roll the dice on this issue. The last statistic we looked at was the facility's hospitalization rate. We found that this nursing home had 1.75 hospitalizations per 1,000 long-term resident days, which is middle of the pack in this area.
Facility Inspections
In addition, this nursing home also excelled in the area of inspections, where it earned an A. Few nursing homes performed better in this area. Inspection ratings account for several factors included in a nursing home's inspection reports. One key criteria we rely on is the number and severity of deficiencies. Nursing homes with higher grades in this area usually have very few severe deficiencies. While this nursing home had a few deficiencies on its report, none of them were severe based on CMS' deficiency scale. Finally, this facility had no substantiated complaints this year from residents, which is an excellent sign.
Nurse Quality
Another strength of this facility is its favorable grade in nursing. We awarded them one of our better scores in that area, with a score of D. In determining our nursing scores, we factor in both staffing levels and the levels of licensure of the nurses. This place offered only 3.2 hours of nursing care per patient each day. Finally, we also assessed some nursing quality measures in computing our nursing grades. This facility performed well in the area of minimizing its residents' pressure ulcers and major falls.
Short-term Care Quality
This facility's least impressive area was short-term care, which is the final area we looked at. We gave it a lowly F in this category. Even with several decent scores in other categories, this grade is nevertheless disappointing so we would like to to make sure you are aware. In the category of short-term care, we attempt to evaluate measures of a nursing home's rehabilitation. We analyze the facility's skilled nursing services, such as the ones performed by registered nurses and physical therapists. In this nursing home's case, we found that it provides less physical therapist and registered nurse hours per resident than the average facility. The last metric we looked at in this area is the percentage of residents who returned home from the facility. This facility a bit in this area as well, with just 45.2 percent of its patients returning home. Unfortunately, this was below the national average.
