Facility Inspections
One of the reasons this ended up being a great nursing home is it received an A+ inspection grade. This is simply as good as it gets in this category. Our inspection grades are based on several datapoints found on the a nursing home's recent inspection reports. Nursing homes that receive favorable grades in this area tend to have few deficiencies on their reports. Most importantly, these places generally do not have any severe deficiencies which are associated with risks to patient safety. While this nursing home had a few minor dings on its government inspection report, it had no severe deficiencies. Severe deficiencies are those found in categories G through L. This means CMS didn't consider any of the deficiencies on this facility's report to pose an imminent threat to patient health or safety. Finally, this facility had no substantiated complaints this year from residents, which is an excellent sign.
Short-term Care Quality
This nursing home received dominant marks in the area of short-term care. Consequently, it received one of our highest grades in that area with a grade of A+. In the area of short-term care, we strive to qualify indicators of a facility's rehabilitation services. We look at a nursing home's skilled nursing services, such as the ones performed by registered nurses and physical and occupational therapists. This facility provides more services with physical therapists and registered nurses than most nursing homes we looked at. This is usually a great sign. The last statistic we looked at in this area is the number of patients who were able to leave the nursing home and return to the community. We found that it performed as well as just about any facility in Maryland in this area with 59.2 percent of its residents returning home. With most facilities, fewer than half of their short-stay residents are able to return home.
Nurse Quality
This nursing home also received a very impressive nursing grade. In that area, we awarded this facility a grade of A. In computing our nursing ratings, we factor in both nursing hours and the training levels of the nurses. This particular nursing home provided 5.7 hours of nursing care per resident per day, which was among the highest totals we found. Finally, this nursing home also performed well in several of the quality measures we assessed. In terms of the number of its residents suffering falls leading to serious injury, this nursing home performed better than the national average.
Long-term Care Quality
Switching gears to our next category, this nursing home was given an excellent long-term care grade. In fact, we gave it an A- in that area, rounding out a straight A profile. When facilities receive a score in this range in this category it generally means it's well-staffed and is an overall good place to reside on a permanent basis. One of the factors we considered on top of this nursing home's above average nursing hours is vaccinations. This facility administered the pneumonia vaccination to 100 percent of its patients. Vaccines are a great way to avoid unnecessary deaths and hospitalizations for the elderly. Finally, this place was able to limit hospitalizations. Indeed, it had only 0.51 hospitalizations per 1,000 long-term resident days, which is an impressively low figure.
