Facility Inspections

Grade: A-plus

In addition to receiving an elite overall score, this nursing home earned an A+ inspection rating. This score is based on the facility's recent government inspections. An A+ in this category is one of the best complements we can pay to a facility. Our inspection scores account for several factors found on a facility's inspection report. One of the most important criteria we consider is the quantity and severity of deficiencies. Facilities with better scores in this area generally have very few of these severe deficiencies. While this nursing home had a few deficiencies on its report, none of them were major deficiencies based on CMS' deficiency scale. A couple relatively minor dings are not necessarily the end of the world.

Short-term Care Quality

Grade: A

This facility also was given a strong short-term care grade. This actually ended up being this nursing home's second strongest category score. In that category, we awarded this facility a score of A. In forming these short-term care grades, we assess the facility's skilled nursing services, including those performed by registered nurses, occupational therapists, physical therapists and other types of skilled professionals. Our goal is to create a tool for comparing the rehabilitation services of different nursing homes. Fortunately, it appear that this nursing home employs registered nurses. Not all facilities employs these skilled professionals. On the other hand, based on the data they provided, they do not appear to employ physical therapists. The final datapoint we considered in this area is the percentage of residents who were able to leave the nursing home and return to the community. We found that 7.1 percent of this facility's patients returned home.

Nurse Quality

Grade: A

This nursing home also received a very impressive nursing grade. In that area, we awarded this facility a grade of A. Our nursing grade focuses on the nursing home's nurse staffing levels. We consider both the levels of licensure of the nurses and the number of hours spent with patients. This particular nursing home provided 0.5 hours of nursing care per resident per day. Finally, we also assessed some nursing quality measures in determining our nursing grades. This place performed very well in the area of minimizing its residents' pressure ulcers and major falls. We consider these areas to be good indicators of the quality of nursing care.

Long-term Care Quality

Grade: B

Turning to our final area, this facility was awarded an excellent long-term care grade. While this wasn't as good as a few of its other grades, this remains one of our stronger scores we offer. When nursing homes receive a grade in this range in long-term care it generally means it has plenty of staff and is an overall good place to reside on a permanent basis. Once we looked at the amount of care provided by nurses aids and other staff, we next considered the facility's vaccination statistics. This nursing home vaccinated 97.9798 percent of its residents for pneumonia, which is far higher than most nursing homes. Finally, 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 figure.
