Nursing homes that receive this kind of grade in this category typically provide consistent 24/7 care to ensure patients are kept in good health. This facility's vaccination records were a bit weaker than a few of its other statistics in this area, such as its nursing hours. It provided the pneumonia vaccine to just 63.703705 percent of its residents. We would like to see some improvement herein this statistic in the future. Lastly, we looked at its number of hospitalizations. We found that this place had 2.69 hospitalizations per one thousand long-term resident days.

This facility has received near flawless health inspections in recent years. We awarded them an impressive grade of A in this category. Our inspection scores are tied to several items found on the a nursing home's inspections. Facilities that receive favorable grades in this area typically have few deficiencies on those reports. Most importantly, these facilities should not have any severe deficiencies which are associated with risks to patient safety. While this place had a few minor dings on its report, it had zero severe deficiencies. Severe deficiencies are ones labeled as categories G through L. This tells you that the government inspectors didn't consider any of the deficiencies on this facility's report to pose an imminent threat to patient health or safety. Finally, this facility had no substantiated complaints this year from residents, which is an excellent sign.
Short-term Care Quality
This facility also received a fine short-term care score. This actually turned out to be this nursing home's third most impressive category score. In that area, this facility received a score of A. Our short-term care ratings are based on a nursing home's quantity of highly-skilled skilled healthcare professionals. This includes a broad spectrum of nursing services, spanning from registered nurses to physical and speech therapists, as well as other variations of therapy. We were pleased to find that this nursing home employs both registered nurses and physical therapists. The same can't be said for all nursing homes. The last metric we looked at in this area is the number of residents that were able to return home from the facility. This was more of a strength for this nursing home. We found that it fared as well as just about any nursing home in Missouri with 68 percent of its residents returning home.
Nurse Quality
The next category we graded was nursing. This nursing home received an above average nursing grade this year, with a B-. While this isn't nearly as elite as a few of its other grades, this is still an acceptable score in this category. We scrutinized the skill-level of nurses working for the facility, as well as the quantity of hours the nurses worked with residents, in calculating our rating in this area. Based on the data, it looks like this nursing home provides an impressive 3.9 hours per patient per day. This is more nursing care than most places provide. In calculating our grades, we apply more weight to hours performed by more highly trained nurses such as registered or licensed nurses. Finally, our nursing grades also factor in some quality-focused statistics. Specifically, we look at the percent of residents who sustained pressure ulcers and major falls. We view these data points as reliable measures of the quality of nursing care, since better care tends to reduce these problems.
