Facility Inspections

To go along with its strong overall grade, we awarded this nursing home a grade of A+ for our inspections rating. Inspection grades are tied to datapoints found on the a nursing home's recent inspection reports. Places that receive favorable grades in this category typically have very few deficiencies on their reports. Most importantly, these facilities generally do not have any severe deficiencies which are associated with endangerment of patients. This facility received 3 deficiencies on its inspection report, but fortunately none were considered to be severe. This indicates that CMS didn't consider any of these deficiencies to create an imminent threat to patient health or safety. The fact that none of the deficiencies were severe made us feel better about this inspection report.

Nurse Quality

This facility also excelled in the area of nursing, where it received a grade of A. Few nursing homes performed better in this area. We scrutinized the skill-level of nurses at the nursing home, as well as the quantity of time the nurses worked with patients, in computing our rating in this category. This facility provided 0.4 hours of nursing care per resident per day. Finally, we also looked at some nursing quality-based metrics in determining our nursing grades. This nursing home performed very well in terms of avoiding major falls and pressure ulcers. We consider these areas to be good indicators of the quality of nursing care.

Short-term Care Quality

This facility was awarded an impressive short-term care grade as well. We awarded it one of our higher scores in that category with a score of B+. In our short-term care category, we try to create a fair gauge for rehabilitation services. In doing so, we assess the facility's levels of skilled nursing services, including both registered nurses and physical therapy, as well as occupational therapy. Fortunately, it looks like this nursing home has registered nurses on staff. Not all nursing homes employs these skilled professionals. However, according to the information they provided, they do not appear to employ physical therapists. The last datapoint we considered in this category is the number of patients who were able to leave the nursing home and return to the community. We found that 0 percent of this nursing home's residents returned home.

Long-term Care Quality

The last category we analyzed is long-term care. We awarded this nursing home one of our better grades in this category, with a grade of B. Although this was not as high as many of its other scores, it is nevertheless a fine score. Long-term care scores of this caliber generally require both 24/7 care from nurses and aids, as well as quality routine healthcare services. In addition to looking at the volume of care provided by aids and other staff, we looked at the percentage of residents vaccinated for pneumonia. This facility vaccinated 90.23256 percent of its patients, which is somewhat lower than we were hoping for. Clearly, this place is doing something right in this area as it was able to keep 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 number.
