Facility Inspections
To pair with a favorable overall grade, we gave this place an A+ for inspections. Arguably the most important factor we consider in calculating our inspection ratings is deficiencies. Deficiencies are found on a facility's recent inspection reports. Nursing homes with better grades in this category typically avoided the most severe deficiencies involving health risks or even death. We were not able to track down deficiency data for this nursing home. We would like to have more data for this nursing home. Without having all of the deficiency related data, it is challenging to fully assess it in terms of this category.
Short-term Care Quality
This facility also performed well in the category of short-term care, where we awarded it a score of A. Only a select group of nursing homes fared better in this area. Our short-term care grades are critical for patients looking for rehabilitation. Rehabilitation usually requires more highly-skilled nursing services. This includes a broad scope of services, spanning from registered nurses to physical and respiratory therapists, as well as other forms of therapy. When we assessed this facility's nursing hours, we found it offered more care from registered nurses than most nursing homes. Lastly, we assessed the percentage of patients who returned home from this nursing home. This place outperformed most facilities in the nation in this area with 55.9 percent of its patients returning home. This is a higher rate than most facilities.
Nurse Quality
Among its many impressive grades, this facility received an excellent nursing grade. In fact, we gave it a grade of A in that category. Our nursing grade includes many datapoints, however, the most important one is the level of nurse hours spent with patients. This particular nursing home provided 3.5 hours of nursing care per resident daily. At least one quarter of this care was provided by registered nurses, which are highly skilled nurses. This is a high ratio of skilled nursing. In calculating our grades, we apply additional weight to care provided by registered or licensed nurses. Finally, we also looked at a few quality measures in determining our nursing grades. This place excelled in these areas, with excellent scores for minimizing its residents' pressure ulcers and major falls. These areas are generally reliable indicators of the quality of nursing care a facility provides.
Long-term Care Quality
Moving on to our final area, this facility also excelled in our long-term care category. In fact, we awarded it a grade of B+ for this category. This wrapped up a very strong profile. Nursing homes that excel in this category typically are well-staffed and offer extensive hands on care to patients. On top of considering the quantity of care provided by nurses and other staff, we analyzed the number of residents vaccinated for pneumonia. This nursing home gave the vaccine to 100 percent of its patients, which is far higher than the average nursing home. Lastly, this facility was able to limit hospitalizations. With only 1.46 hospitalizations per one thousand long-term resident days, this nursing home has less hospitalizations than many nursing homes.
