Facility Inspections
In addition to being a strong nursing home overall, this place really excelled in our inspections category, where it received a grade of A. Few facilities performed better in this area. We take several aspects of a facility's inspection report into consideration in determining these inspection scores. One critical factor is health deficiencies. You should keep in mind that the severity of these deficiencies is usually more important than the number of deficiencies, as some deficiencies end up being quite insignificant. This particular nursing home received 4 deficiencies on its inspection report. Overall, this is still a good inspection report, but we'd always recommend looking into any deficiencies you find troubling.
Short-term Care Quality
This nursing home performed well in the area of short-term care. Indeed, we gave it a grade of A- for that area, which happens to be one of our most impressive scores. In the category of short-term care, we try to assess measures of a facility's rehabilitation. We assess a facility's skilled nursing services, such as the ones performed by registered nurses and physical and occupational therapists. One of this nursing home's strengths is physical therapy hours. We found that it offers more hours with physical therapists to its residents than most facilities. Lastly, we looked at the percentage of patients who were able to return to the community from this facility. We found that it outperformed the vast majority of facilities in the country with 65.6 percent of its patients returning home. This is a significantly higher rate than most nursing homes.
Nurse Quality
This facility is also strong in the area of nursing, where it received a grade of B+. It outperformed most nursing homes in this category. Our nursing grade focuses on the nursing home's level of nurse staffing. We weigh both the levels of licensure of those nurses as well as the amount of time spent with residents. This place provided 4.7 hours of nursing care per patient daily. This is an extremely impressive figure which typically leads to higher quality care. Lastly, this facility also excelled in the quality measures we assessed. For example, it performed as well as any facility the country when it comes to avoiding pressure ulcers and major falls. We view these areas as reliable indicators of the caliber of nursing care provided.
Long-term Care Quality
The last area we looked at was long-term care, in which this nursing home was awarded a grade of B-. This is this facility's worst category. This is still a middle of the pack score. For residents looking for a permanent residence as opposed to skilled nursing, long-term care grades are a key measure. In addition to offering impressive levels of nurse staffing, this nursing home administered the pneumonia vaccine to 100 percent of its residents. Vaccines are vital to keeping patients out of the hospital. This combination proved to be successful as this facility was able to keep its patients out of the hospital. Indeed, it had only 1.57 hospitalizations per one thousand long-term resident days.
