Facility Inspections
One of the reasons this place ended up being a quality nursing home is it received an A+ inspection grade. This is just about as good as it gets in this critical category. Arguably the most significant factor we look at in calculating our inspection ratings is deficiencies. These deficiencies are found on a nursing home's recent inspection reports. Places with higher scores in this area typically avoided the most severe deficiencies involving health risks or even death. While this facility had a few deficiencies on its report, none of them were serious based on CMS' deficiency scale. Keep in mind that deficiency-free inspection reports are rare in the industry.
Short-term Care Quality
This top-shelf nursing home also performed remarkably in the category of short-term care, where it received a score of A+. Very few facilities performed better in this area. In the category of short-term care, we strive to evaluate indicators of a nursing home's rehabilitation. We assess a facility's skilled nursing services, such as the ones performed by registered nurses and various therapists. This place provides more services with physical therapists and registered nurses than most facilities we looked at. This is definitely an encouraging sign. The final metric we assessed in this category is the percentage of residents who ultimately returned home from the facility. We found that it fared as well as just about any facility in Kansas in this area with 73.1 percent of its residents returning home.
Nurse Quality
Another reason we rated this nursing home so highly is that it received an A+ nursing grade. This is simply as good as it gets in this category. The nursing score consists of quite a few components, but the primary consideration is the level of nurse hours per patient per week. This facility boasts a really impressive 4.9 hours of nursing care per patient on a daily basis, of which a significant percentage of those hours were provided by registered nurses. This is one of the most highly trained levels of nurses. This is one of the higher totals of nursing hours we found at any facility. On top of providing high levels of care, this facility also excelled in several of the quality measures we assessed. With under five percent of its patients suffering from pressure ulcers, it fared as well as any facility Kansas in this category.
Long-term Care Quality
The last category we rated was long-term care, in which this facility was given a B. Believe it or not, this was this facility's least impressive area. A nursing home is doing something right when their lowest grade still is superior to most nursing homes. Nursing homes that excel in this category typically provide patients with closer supervision and stay on top of routine healthcare services. On top of offering very impressive levels of nursing care and other staffing, this facility gave the pneumonia vaccine to 100 percent of its residents. This statistic is also significantly better than the majority of nursing homes. This combination proved to be successful as this facility was able to keep its patients out of the hospital. Indeed, it had less than one hospitalization per 1,000 long-term resident days, which is an impressively low figure.
