Facility Inspections

Grade: A-plus

In addition to receiving an elite overall grade, this facility also received an A+ inspection rating. This is based on its recent government inspections. An A+ in this area is one of the best complements we can offer a nursing home. Our inspection scores are based on many items located in the a nursing home's recent inspection reports. Places that score well in this area tend to have very few deficiencies on those reports. Most importantly, these facilities generally do not have any severe deficiencies which are associated with risks to patient safety. Fortunately, although this place had some minor dings on its report, it had no severe deficiencies. Severe deficiencies are ones labeled as categories G, H, I, J, K and L. This tells you CMS didn't consider any of the deficiencies on this facility's report to pose an imminent threat to patient health or safety. Finally, this facility had no substantiated complaints this year from residents, which is an excellent sign.

Short-term Care Quality

Grade: A

Among its many high-end grades, this nursing home was awarded an excellent short-term care grade. In fact, we gave it a grade of A in that category. In our short-term care assessment, we attempt to forge a valuable barometer for rehabilitation. In this process, we assess the nursing home's level of skilled nursing services, including both registered nurses and physical therapy, as well as occupational therapy. Fortunately, it appear that this facility employs registered nurses. Not all nursing homes employs these types of nurses. On the other hand, according to the information they provided, it does not look like the facility employs physical therapists. Lastly, we considered the percentage of patients who were able to return to the community from this nursing home. We found that 5.9 percent of this facility's residents returned home.

Long-term Care Quality

Grade: A-minus

We also want to note the fact that this facility received a high-end grade of A- in our long-term care category. For prospective residents looking for a permanent residence rather than rehabilitation, long-term care is an important category. In addition to assessing the amount of care provided by nurses and other staff, we looked at the number of residents vaccinated against pneumonia. This facility administered the vaccine to 91.77631 percent of its residents, which is a few points lower than we expected. Clearly, this nursing home is doing something right in this area as it also excelled at keeping its patients out of the hospital. In fact, it had less than one hospitalization per one thousand long-term resident days, which is an impressively low figure.

Nurse Quality

Grade: B-plus

In our final area, we gave this facility a grade of A+ for our nursing rating. This completed a very impressive report card. In calculating our nursing ratings, we assess both the number of hours nurses spend with residents and the levels of licensure of the nurses. This nursing home provides 0.4 hours of nursing care per resident per day. Lastly, we also assessed certain nursing quality-based metrics in computing our nursing grades. These include minimizing residents' pressure ulcers and major falls. We look at these statistics as predictive measures of the quality of nursing care offered, since better care tends to reduce these problems.
