Long-term Care Quality
One of the reasons this proved to be a strong facility is that it received a very impressive long-term care rating. In fact, long-term care ended up being its best grade. In that area, we gave this nursing home a grade of A+. Facilities that receive this kind of score in this category typically provide consistent 24/7 care to ensure patients are well cared for. After we finished assessing the amount of nursing care, we then looked at the facility's vaccination records. This facility vaccinated 99.579834 percent of its residents against pneumonia, which is an impressive figure. Pneumonia is too frequently a life threatening ailment for nursing home patients so we like it when a nursing home does not leave its residents vulnerable. This nursing home also keeps its patients out of the hospital. In fact, it had just 1.64 hospitalizations per 1,000 long-term resident days.
Facility Inspections
In addition, this nursing home also performed well in inspections, which is based on the facility's recent government inspections. We gave it a grade of A- for that area. We weigh several aspects of a nursing home's inspection report in determining these inspection grades. One key factor is deficiencies. It should be noted that the severity of deficiencies is usually more meaningful than the quantity of deficiencies, as some of these end up being quite insignificant. This facility received 3 deficiencies on its inspection report, but none of the deficiencies were considered to be severe deficiencies. This tells you that the government inspectors didn't consider any of the deficiencies to create an imminent threat to resident safety or health. Finally, this facility had no substantiated complaints this year from residents, which is an excellent sign.
Nurse Quality
This facility's next best category grade came in the area of nursing. In that category, we gave this nursing home a grade of B-. This wasn't quite on par with some of its other category grades mentioned above. We analyzed the skill-level of nurses employed by the nursing home, in addition to the number of hours the nurses were with residents, in computing our rating in this area. This nursing home provides 3.1 hours of nursing care per resident per day. This is a much lower figure than we are used to seeing. Finally, although this place got dinged a bit for nursing hours per resident, it actually excelled in a few of our quality-based metrics. With fewer than five percent of its patients suffering from pressure ulcers, it performed very well in this statistic.
Short-term Care Quality
Moving on to the final category, this facility was awarded an acceptable short-term care score of C. Our short-term care grade is often used to assess a facility's rehabilitation services. To offer high-end rehabilitation services, facilities generally need to have better levels of skilled nursing services. These types of services include registered nurses, physical therapists, speech therapists and other types of therapists. This nursing home is above the national average in terms of its level of both physical therapy and registered nurse hours provided to its residents. Finally, we considered the percentage of residents that ultimately were able to return home from this nursing home. We found that 22.6 percent of this facility's residents were able to return home. This figure was actually below the national average.
