Facility Inspections
To go along with its strong overall grade, we awarded this nursing home a grade of A+ for our inspections rating. Our inspection grades weigh several factors included in a nursing home's inspection report. One of the most important criteria we consider is the quantity and severity of deficiencies. Nursing homes with better grades in this category usually have very few severe deficiencies. 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. Even some of the best nursing homes receive an occasional ding on their inspection report.
Nurse Quality
To complement its strong performance in other areas, we awarded this nursing home a grade of A+ for our inspections rating. Nursing scores are based largely on nurse staffing levels. This nursing home boasts a really impressive 4.3 hours of nursing care per resident on a daily basis, of which a significant portion of those hours were provided by registered nurses. This is one of the more highly trained levels of nurses. In addition to offering impressive levels of care, this facility also excelled in the quality measures we assessed. For example, it performed as well as any nursing home in the nation when it comes to minimizing its residents' major falls and pressure ulcers. We look at these areas as predictive measures of the caliber of nursing care provided.
Short-term Care Quality
In addition, this facility also received favorable short-term care grades in our assessment. In fact, we awarded it one of our more favorable grades in that category, with a score of B+. With our short-term care rating, we attempt to create a valuable gauge for rehabilitation. In this process, we assess the nursing home's offerings of highly-skilled nursing services, including both registered nurses and physical therapy, as well as speech therapy. One of this nursing home's strength is that it offers more hours of care from registered nurses to its residents. The final metric we looked at in this category is the percentage of patients who were able to leave the facility and return home. This place was respectable in this area with 45.5 percent of its residents returning home.
Long-term Care Quality
The next area we scored was long-term care. In that area, we awarded this facility an above average grade of B. Facilities that do well in long-term care typically provide residents with better supervision and stay on top of routine healthcare services. After considering the significant amount of nursing hours and other staffing provided by this nursing home, we then analyzed the facility's vaccination records. This nursing home vaccinated 99.26471 percent of its patients against pneumonia, which is far higher than most nursing homes. Finally, this place was able to limit hospitalizations. While it had 1.74 hospitalizations per 1,000 long-term resident days, its risk adjusted score was better than most nursing homes since it had more complex patients.
