Short-term Care Quality
In addition to being a first rate nursing home overall, this nursing home also excelled in our short-term care rating, where it received a grade of A. Few nursing homes performed better in this category. Our short-term care scores are based on a nursing home's quantity of skilled skilled healthcare professionals. This means a broad scope of services, ranging from registered nurses to physical and occupational therapists, not to mention other types of therapy. This nursing home provided more physical therapist and registered nurse hours per resident than most facilities. This is what we like to find when assessing a nursing home in this category. The last metric we assessed in this category is the number of residents who eventually returned home from the facility. We found that it fared as well as just about any facility in Michigan in this area with 65.5 percent of its patients returning home.
Facility Inspections
Adding to this nursing home's impressive resume, we awarded this facility an A- for inspections. Arguably the most critical factor we look at in calculating our inspection ratings is deficiencies. Deficiencies are found on a facility's recent inspection reports. Places with higher scores in this category typically dodged the more severe deficiencies involving things like patient abuse. This facility received 5 deficiencies on its inspection report, but fortunately none were considered to be severe deficiencies. This tells you that CMS did not deem any of the deficiencies to pose an imminent threat to patient safety or health. A couple relatively minor dings are not something to panic about.
Nurse Quality
Adding to its strong resume, this facility also received an excellent nursing score, with a grade of A-. Our nursing grade features several subcategories. The most heavily weighted factor is the quantity of hours nurses spend with patients. This nursing home provides an incredible 4.2 hours of nursing care per patient each day. Out of that total, many of those hours were provided by registered nurses, which is one of the most highly trained levels of nurses. On top of providing impressive levels of nursing care, this facility also performed well in several of the quality measures we assessed. In terms of the percentage of its patients suffering from pressure ulcers, this nursing home performed better than the national average.
Long-term Care Quality
The last area we scored is long-term care, in which this nursing home was awarded a grade of B-. This is this facility's weakest area. This is still a middle of the pack score. In crafting these long-term care grades, we analyze the nursing home's ability to maintain its permanent residents' health and quality of life. On top of offering high levels of nursing care, this nursing home gave the pneumonia vaccine to 98.83721 percent of its residents. Vaccines are critical to keeping residents out of the hospital. Lastly, we looked at the facility's number of hospitalizations. Here we found that this facility had 4.91 hospitalizations per one thousand long-term resident days. Although this figure is quite a bit higher than the national average, this statistic may be skewed for some nursing homes based on the medical complexity of residents.
