One of the many reasons this turned out to be a great nursing home is that it received an A+ nursing grade. This is simply as good as it gets in this category. There are numerous subcategories within this area. Most of these subcategories relate to the quantity and quality of nurse staffing. This facility provided 4.9 hours of nursing care per patient per day, which is among the highest totals in the country. A significant portion of those hours were provided by registered nurses, which are one of the most skilled levels of nurses. We were very impressed by these statistics. In addition to providing high levels of nursing care, this nursing home also excelled in the quality measures we assessed. It performed as well as any nursing home in the nation in the area of minimizing its residents' major falls and pressure ulcers.
