Facility Inspections
On top of being a strong nursing home overall, it also received A+ government inspections recently. Its inspections are virtually perfect. These inspection ratings weigh several factors, including deficiencies, substantiated complaints and federal fines. You can learn more about each of these items by obtaining copies of nursing homes' inspection reports. Although this place had a few deficiencies on its report, none of them were major deficiencies based on CMS' scale. Finally, this facility had no substantiated complaints this year from residents, which is an excellent sign.
Long-term Care Quality
Adding to its high-end resume, this nursing home also received an excellent long-term care grade, with a score of A. Facilities that do well in this category tend to be well-staffed and provide extensive hands on care to residents. After considering the amount of care provided by aids and other staff, we then looked at the facility's vaccination data. This facility vaccinated 100 percent of its residents against pneumonia, which is far higher than the average nursing home. Finally, this facility was able to limit hospitalizations. With just 1.38 hospitalizations per 1,000 long-term resident days, this nursing home has less hospitalizations than the average nursing home.
Nurse Quality
This nursing home also received a strong nursing score. In fact, we awarded it an above average grade of B+ in this area. Nursing scores are largely tied to a facility's level of nurse staffing. This particular nursing home provided 3.8 hours of nursing care per resident per day. Lastly, we also looked at certain nursing quality measures in computing our nursing grades. These include minimizing residents' pressure ulcers and major falls. We look at these areas as reliable measures of the quality of nursing care provided, since better care tends to reduce these problems.
Short-term Care Quality
Switching gears to the last category, this facility was given a very strong short-term care score. Even though this wasn't nearly as elite as some of its other grades, this is nevertheless one of the stronger scores a facility can receive. Short-term care grades are critical for individuals needing rehabilitation. Rehabilitation usually utilizes higher levels of skilled nursing. Skilled nursing means a wide spectrum of services, spanning from registered nurses to physical and occupational therapists, as well as other variations of therapy. One of this nursing home's strengths is registered nurse hours. We found that it offers more care from registered nurses to its residents than most facilities. The last statistic we assessed in this category is the percentage of residents that eventually returned home from the nursing home. This place performed better than most facilities in this area with 50.7 percent of its residents returning home. Unfortunately, at most nursing homes, less than half of their short-stay residents are able to return home.
