Short-term Care Quality

Grade: A

On top of performing well in its overall grade, this facility received an excellent short-term care score. We gave it an A in that category. In the category of short-term care, we endeavor to evaluate measures of a facility's rehabilitation. We assess the nursing home's skilled nursing services, such as those performed by registered nurses and physical therapists. Fortunately, it looks like this nursing home employs registered nurses. Not every nursing home employs these skilled professionals. However, according to the information they provided, they do not appear to employ physical therapists. The last item we looked at in this category is the percentage of residents who were able to leave the facility and return to the community. We discovered that 6 percent of this nursing home's residents returned home.

Long-term Care Quality

Grade: A

This facility also was elite in the category of long-term care, where we awarded it a grade of A. Very few nursing homes fared better in this area. Facilities that receive this type of grade in this category tend to provide consistent 24/7 care to make sure patients are kept in good health. One of the criteria we considered on top of nursing hours was vaccines. This facility administered the pneumonia vaccine to 100 percent of its patients. Vaccination is a reliable method to avoid unnecessary deaths for the nursing home population. Finally, this facility was able to limit hospitalizations. Indeed, it had only 0 hospitalizations per one thousand long-term resident days, which is an impressively low number.

Facility Inspections

Grade: A-minus

We awarded this facility a score of A- for inspections. Our inspection ratings weigh several factors included in a facility's inspection report. One key criteria we rely on is the number and severity of deficiencies. Places with higher scores in this category tend to have few of these severe deficiencies. This facility was assessed 2 deficiencies on its inspection report, but none of the deficiencies were considered severe. This means that CMS did not consider any of these deficiencies to cause an imminent threat to patient health or safety. Finally, this facility had no substantiated complaints this year from residents, which is an excellent sign.

Nurse Quality

Grade: B-plus

In our last area, this facility also received an impressive nursing score, with a grade of B+. This wrapped up a first-rate report card. When determining our nursing scores, we look at both staffing levels and the levels of licensure of those nurses. This facility provided 0.4 hours of nursing care per resident per day. Lastly, we also looked at some nursing quality measures in determining our nursing grades. This facility performed very well in the area of avoiding pressure ulcers and major falls. We consider these areas to be good indicators of the quality of nursing care.
