Facility Inspections
In addition to being a strong nursing home overall, it also earned A+ government inspections recently. Its inspections were nearly flawless. Perhaps the most critical factor we consider in calculating our inspection grades is deficiencies. These deficiencies can be found on a facility's inspection reports. Places with higher scores in this category typically avoided the more severe deficiencies involving things like patient abuse. This particular nursing home had just a single deficiency on its inspection report and it was not one deemed to pose a 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 nursing home also was given an A+ for its short-term care score. Short-term care ratings are based on a nursing home's quantity of skilled skilled healthcare professionals. This includes a broad spectrum of services, ranging from registered nurses to physical and speech therapists, in addition to other forms of therapy. Remarkably, this facility provides approximately 1.5 times as many hours of services from physical therapists and registered nurses than most nursing homes we assessed. The last statistic we assessed in this category is the percentage of patients that were able to return home from the nursing home. We found that it performed as well as just about any nursing home in New York in this area with 71.1 percent of its residents returning home. At most facilities, fewer than half of their short-term residents are able to return home.

Nurse Quality
Another reason we rated this nursing home so highly is that it received an A+ nursing grade. This is simply as good as it gets in this category. Nursing grades are tied to nurse staffing levels. This place boasts a really impressive 8.8 hours of nursing care per patient per day, of which a significant portion was provided by registered nurses. This is one of the most highly highly trained levels of nurses. On top of offering impressive levels of care, this facility also excelled in the quality measures we looked at. It performed as well as any nursing home in the state in the area of avoiding pressure ulcers and major falls.
Long-term Care Quality
In the final category we scored, this nursing home received an impressive grade grade of A in our long-term care category. With this grade, the nursing home completed a straight A profile. Long-term care scores in this range generally require both 24/7 care from nurses and aids, as well as quality routine medical care. After assessing the volume of care provided by aids and other staff, we turned to the facility's vaccination statistics. Unfortunately, we were not able to find this place's vaccination data. Clearly, this nursing home is doing something right in this area as it also excelled at keeping its residents out of the hospital. It had less than one hospitalization per 1,000 long-term resident days, which is an impressively low figure.
