Facility Inspections
The main reason this ended up being a decent nursing home is that it earned an elite inspection score. Its inspection score was far better than its overall grade. In our inspections category, we gave this facility an A. These inspection grades take several factors into consideration, including deficiencies and federal fines. You can learn more about each of these issues by obtaining copies of nursing homes' inspection reports. This particular nursing home had just a single deficiency on its inspection report and it was not one deemed to pose a threat to patient health or safety. Finally, this facility had no substantiated complaints this year from residents, which is always a good sign.
Long-term Care Quality
Another one of this facility's better category grades was in the area of long-term care. In that category, we gave this nursing home a grade of B+. When facilities receive this kind of score in long-term care it is a good sign for resident care and suggests that the facility is well-staffed with nurses aids. One of the criteria we considered in addition to nurse's aid hours was vaccines. This facility provided the pneumonia vaccine to 97.08738 percent of its residents. Vaccination is a reliable method to minimize negative health outcomes for the aged 65 and up population. Finally, we looked at the nursing home's number of hospitalizations. Here we found that this facility had 2.63 hospitalizations per 1,000 long-term resident days.
Short-term Care Quality
In addition, we gave this nursing home a rock-bottom F in the area of short-term care. In our short-term care rating, we attempt to craft a valuable measure for rehabilitation services. In this process, we look at the facility's levels of skilled nursing services, including both registered nurses and physical therapy, as well as occupational therapy. Not surprisingly, we found that this nursing home provides far less physical therapist and registered nurse hours per resident than the average facility. Finally, we assessed the number of patients that ultimately returned home from this facility. This nursing home didn't fare well here either. In fact, we found that just 41 percent of this facility's patients were able to return home. This figure was well off the national average.
Nurse Quality
The final category we graded is nursing. Sadly, it received an F in this category, which is an abysmal grade. This is certainly a major disappointment. There are many factors included in this area. Many of the data points relate to the quantity and quality of nurse staffing. This facility provided just 2.6 hours of nursing care per resident per day. This is a very low total compared to most nursing homes. In addition to ranking below average in nursing hours per resident, this facility also had poor marks in the quality-based measures we looked at in computing our nursing scores. We looked at the percentage of patients sustaining pressure ulcers and major falls. This nursing home was at about 150 percent of the national average in both of these statistics. This is a bad sign when you consider that many bed sores and falls are believed to be preventable with better nursing care. These metrics helped pull down this nursing home's nursing grade significantly.
