Facility Inspections

On top of receiving a great overall grade, this facility performed well in our inspections category, which is based on its recent inspection reports. In fact, we awarded it an A for this area. We weigh several aspects of a nursing home's inspection report in computing these inspection grades. One key factor is health deficiencies. It should be noted that the severity of these deficiencies is usually more important than the quantity of deficiencies, as some deficiencies end up being relatively insignificant. This particular nursing home received 3 deficiencies on its inspection report. Finally, this facility had no substantiated complaints this year from residents, which is an excellent sign.

Nurse Quality

Adding to its impressive resume, this nursing home also excelled in our nursing category. In fact, we awarded it a grade of A- for that category. Nursing scores are mostly tied to the facility's nurse staffing. This nursing home provides 0.4 hours of nursing care per resident per day. Finally, our nursing grades also factor in quality-based assessments, such as avoiding major falls. This nursing home performed well in this area.

Long-term Care Quality

We also want to draw your attention to the fact that this nursing home was given a first-rate grade of A- in our long-term care category. Facilities that receive this kind of grade in long-term care typically provide consistent around the clock care to ensure residents are well cared for. After assessing the quantity of care provided by aids and other staff, we then analyzed the facility's vaccination records. This nursing home vaccinated 68.09816 percent of its residents for pneumonia, which is a bit lower than we were hoping for but still a respectable percentage. Although its vaccination rate was a bit lower than we had hoped, at least this facility was able to limit hospitalizations. Indeed, it had only 0.01 hospitalizations per one thousand long-term resident days, which is an impressively low figure.

Short-term Care Quality

Turning to the next category, this nursing home also performed well in the short-term care category. In fact, we gave it a B+ in this category. This wrapped up a first-rate profile. Short-term care scores are critical for individuals looking for rehabilitation. Rehabilitation usually mandates additional skilled nursing. This means a broad scope of services, spanning from registered nurses to physical and speech therapists, as well as other variations of therapy. Fortunately, it looks like this nursing home employs registered nurses. Not every facility employs these skilled professionals. However, based on the data this nursing home provided, it does not look like the facility employs physical therapists. The final metric we assessed in this area is the percentage of residents who were able to leave the nursing home and return home. We discovered that 4.7 percent of this nursing home's patients were able to return home.
