Nurse Quality

Grade: A

In addition to earning a strong overall score, this nursing home performed well in our nursing category. In fact, we gave it an A for that category, which is one of our highest scores. There are a variety of subcategories included in this area. Many of these subcategories relate to nurse staffing. This nursing home provides 0.3 hours of nursing care per resident per day. Finally, we also looked at some nursing quality measures in determining our nursing grades. This nursing home performed very well in the area of minimizing its residents' pressure ulcers and major falls. We consider these areas to be good indicators of the quality of nursing care.

Long-term Care Quality

Grade: A-minus

Among this nursing home's other accomplishments is its dominant long-term care score. We awarded them one of our better scores in that category, with a grade of A-. When nursing homes receive a grade in this range in this category it generally means it's well-staffed and is a quality place to reside on a permanent basis. After assessing the volume of care provided by nurses aids and other staff, we turned to the nursing home's vaccination records. This nursing home vaccinated 97.57085 percent of its residents against pneumonia. Vaccines are vital to keeping patients healthy. Clearly, this facility is doing something right in this area as it was able to keep its residents out of the hospital. In fact, it had only 0 hospitalizations per 1,000 long-term resident days, which is a remarkably low number.

Short-term Care Quality

Grade: A-minus

The third area we analyzed is short-term care. This facility received a superb short-term care score. We gave them a dominant grade of A- in this area. Our short-term care grades are probably more critical for individuals requiring rehabilitation services. Rehabilitation typically utilizes higher levels of highly-skilled nursing services. This means not just nursing, but also physical and occupational therapy, as well as other forms of therapy. Fortunately, it looks like this facility has registered nurses on staff. Not every facility employs these types of nurses. On the other hand, based on the data this nursing home provided, it does not look like the facility employs physical therapists. Lastly, we looked at the percentage of patients who returned home from this nursing home. We found that 0 percent of this nursing home's patients returned home.

Facility Inspections

Grade: B-minus

Turning to the last category we assessed, this facility received a good score in the area of inspections as well. In fact, we awarded it a score of B- for that category. This nursing home didn't have any major weak links. We believe that one of the most critical factors in assessing an inspection report is deficiencies. In this regard, we especially focus on the severity of the deficiencies. This place received 2 deficiencies on its inspection report, but fortunately none were considered to be severe. This means that CMS didn't deem any of the deficiencies to create an immediate risk to resident safety or health. Finally, this facility had no substantiated complaints this year from residents, which is an excellent sign.
