Short-term Care Quality
Grade: A-plus
One of the reasons this turned out to be a great nursing home is that it received an A+ in short-term care. Short-term care grades are important for prospective residents seeking rehabilitation. Rehabilitation typically mandates higher levels of highly-skilled nursing services. Skilled nursing means a wide range of services, ranging from registered nurses to physical and respiratory therapists, as well as other types of therapy. Fortunately, it looks like this nursing home employs registered nurses. Not all facilities employs these skilled professionals. On the other hand, based on the information this nursing home provided, they do not appear to employ physical therapists. Finally, we considered the number of patients who were able to return to the community from this nursing home. We found that 6.1 percent of this facility's patients returned home.
Facility Inspections
Grade: A
Turning to inspections, this nursing home excelled in that area, which is based on the nursing home's recent government inspections. We awarded it an A for that category. We weigh several aspects of a nursing home's inspection report in determining these inspection ratings. One key factor is deficiencies. You should keep in mind that the severity of these deficiencies is usually more important than the quantity of deficiencies, as some of these are quite insignificant. It does not appear that we have deficiency counts for this nursing home. Without having complete information regarding deficiencies for this nursing home, it ended up being a challenge to really assess it in the area of inspections.
