Facility Inspections
The primary reason this nursing home received a decent overall grade is its impeccable government inspections in recent years. We awarded them one of our higher grades in that area, with an A+. This is a notably better score than the place's overall grade, which was decent but not in the elite range. Our inspection grades weigh several factors included in a nursing home's inspection report. One key criteria we consider is the number and severity of deficiencies. Nursing homes with higher scores in this category generally have few of these severe deficiencies. While this nursing home had some deficiencies on its report, none were severe based on CMS' deficiency scale. Finally, this facility had no substantiated complaints this year from residents, which is always a good sign.
Long-term Care Quality
This facility also was given a favorable long-term care grade. In fact, we awarded them a grade of B+ in this area, which happens to be one of our more favorable scores. Nursing homes that receive this kind of grade in this category typically provide consistent 24/7 care to make sure residents are well cared for. On top of assessing the amount of care provided by nurses and other staff, we analyzed the percentage of residents vaccinated for pneumonia. This facility provided the vaccine to 90.763054 percent of its patients. This is slightly lower than we anticipated. Fortunately, this nursing home excelled at keeping its patients out of the hospital. Indeed, it had only 1 hospitalizations per one thousand long-term resident days, which is a substantially lower hospitalization rate than the average nursing home.
Nurse Quality
This nursing home also received a strong nursing rating. In fact, we awarded it a grade of F in this area. There are numerous subcategories included in this area. Many of these criteria reflect staffing levels. With just 2.8 hours of nursing care per resident each day, this place's nurse staffing levels were quite a bit below the national average. Lastly, we also assessed some nursing quality measures in computing our nursing grades. This facility performed well in terms of minimizing its residents' pressure ulcers and major falls.
Short-term Care Quality
Turning to our last area, this facility really did not fare very well. With a rock bottom grade of F in short-term care, this is its poorest area. In the area of short-term care, we strive to evaluate indicators of a facility's rehabilitation services. We analyze a facility's skilled nursing services, such as those performed by registered nurses and physical therapists. Not surprisingly, we discovered that this facility offers substantially less registered nurse and physical therapist hours per resident than the typical nursing home. Lastly, we assessed the number of residents who were able to return to the community from this nursing home. We found that just 26.9 percent of this nursing home's residents returned home.
