Medical Staff Hours Per Patient (2019)
Nurse Quality
One of the many reasons this turned out to be a great nursing home is that it received an A+ nursing grade. This is simply as good as it gets in this category. Our nursing score consists of a handful of components, however, the paramount one is the level of nurse hours per patient per week. This particular nursing home provided 4.1 hours of nursing care per resident per day, which was among the highest totals we found. Finally, this facility also excelled in the quality-based metrics we looked at. For example, it fared as well as any nursing home the nation when it comes to minimizing its residents' pressure ulcers and major falls. We view these areas as good measures of the caliber of nursing care being provided.
Long-term Care Quality
We also gave this nursing home a score of A+ for its long-term care grade. If you are seeking services other than short-term rehabilitation, you should take a close look at each facility's long-term care grades. This nursing home's vaccination data were not as impressive as its nursing hours. It administered the pneumonia vaccine to just 90.789474 percent of its patients. We'd love to see some improvement in this area in the future. Although its vaccination rate was a bit lower than we like to see, at least this facility was able to limit hospitalizations. It had only 0 hospitalizations per one thousand long-term resident days, which is a remarkably low number.
Facility Inspections
This facility has received near flawless health inspections in recent years. We awarded them an impressive grade of A- in this category. Inspection ratings are based on many pieces of information found on the a nursing home's recent inspection reports. Nursing homes that receive favorable grades in this area tend to have very few deficiencies on their reports. Most importantly, these facilities should not have any severe deficiencies which are associated with risks to patient safety. Although this nursing home had a few deficiencies on its government inspection report, none of them were severe based on CMS' deficiency scale. Finally, this facility had no substantiated complaints this year from residents, which is an excellent sign.
Short-term Care Quality
In the last category we assessed, this nursing home was awarded a very strong grade of B+ in our short-term care category. With this score, the nursing home wrapped up a very strong report card. Our short-term care ratings are crucial for prospective residents requiring rehabilitation. Rehabilitation typically requires higher levels of skilled nursing services. This means a wide scope of services, spanning from registered nurses to physical and respiratory therapists, as well as other forms of therapy. Fortunately, it looks like this facility employs registered nurses. Not every nursing home employs these skilled professionals. On the other hand, based on the information this nursing home provided, it does not look like the facility employs physical therapists. The last statistic we considered in this category is the number of residents who were able to leave the facility and return to the community. We discovered that 0 percent of this facility's residents were able to return home.
