Facility Inspections

Grade: A-plus

On top of being an elite nursing home overall, this nursing home also performed well in the area of inspections, where it received an A+. Few places fared this well in this category. These inspection grades take several factors into consideration, including deficiencies and substantiated complaints. You can learn more about each of these issues by reviewing copies of nursing homes' inspection reports. Fortunately, although this facility had a few minor dings on its government inspection report, it had zero severe deficiencies. Severe deficiencies are those labeled as categories G through L. This means the government inspectors didn't consider any of the deficiencies on this facility's report to pose an imminent threat to patient safety or health. Finally, this facility had no substantiated complaints this year from residents, which is an excellent sign.

Short-term Care Quality

Grade: A-minus

Adding to its strong resume, this nursing home also was awarded an excellent short-term care score, with a score of A-. Short-term care ratings are based on a nursing home's quantity of highly-skilled skilled healthcare professionals. This means a broad spectrum of nursing services, ranging from registered nurses to physical and respiratory therapists, as well as other forms of therapy. Fortunately, it looks like this nursing home has registered nurses on staff. Not all nursing homes employs these skilled professionals. On the other hand, based on the data this nursing home provided, they do not appear to employ physical therapists. The last measure we considered in this area is the percentage of patients who were able to leave the nursing home and return home. We discovered that 5.6 percent of this facility's residents were able to return home.

Long-term Care Quality

Grade: A-minus

Turning our next category, we gave this nursing home a score of A- for its long-term care score. This is a very impressive rating. Long-term care ratings in this range generally require both around the clock care from nurses and aids, as well as quality routine medical care. One of the factors we considered in addition to nursing hours is vaccines. This facility provided the pneumonia vaccine to 93.29609 percent of its patients. Lastly, this place was able to limit hospitalizations. Indeed, it had less than one hospitalization per 1,000 long-term resident days, which is a remarkably low number.

Nurse Quality

Grade: B-plus

In our last area, we gave this facility a A+ for its nursing score. This rounded out a first-rate profile. We weighed the qualifications of nurses employed by the nursing home, as well as the number of hours those nurses worked with patients, in computing our rating in this area. This nursing home provides 0.3 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 better than average in this area. This is often a good indicator that a nursing home has reliable quality controls in place. Major falls can many times be avoided if more nurses aids and better safety protocols are in place.
