Long-term Care Quality

On top of being a first rate nursing home overall, this nursing home also excelled in the area of long-term care, where it received an A-. Few nursing homes did better in this category. When facilities receive a grade in this range in long-term care it generally means it's well-staffed and is a quality place to live on a permanent basis. After considering the volume of care provided by nurses, we turned to the facility's vaccination statistics. This nursing home vaccinated 97.540985 percent of its patients against pneumonia, which is very impressive. Pneumonia is often a deadly ailment for nursing home patients so we strongly prefer when a facility does not roll the dice on this issue. Clearly, this nursing home is doing something right in this area as it was able to keep its patients out of the hospital. In fact, it had only 0.01 hospitalizations per 1,000 long-term resident days, which is an impressively low figure.

Short-term Care Quality

Adding to its high-end resume, this nursing home also was awarded a dominant short-term care score, with a grade of A-. Our short-term care ratings are based on the facility's quantity of highly-skilled nursing services. This includes a broad range of nursing services, ranging from registered nurses to physical and respiratory therapists, in addition to other types of therapy. Fortunately, it appear that this nursing home employs registered nurses. Not every facility employs these types of nurses. However, according to the data they provided, they do not appear to employ physical therapists. The last statistic we looked at in this category is the number of residents who were able to leave the facility and return home. We found that 6.7 percent of this nursing home's residents were able to return home.
