Facility Inspections

Grade: A

On top of receiving a strong overall grade, this nursing home also earned excellent inspections in recent years. We awarded it one of our highest grades in that category, with an A. Perhaps the most significant factor we look at in determining our inspection ratings is deficiencies. These deficiencies are found on a facility's recent inspection reports. Places with better scores in this category typically dodged the most severe deficiencies involving health risks or even death. We weren't able to find deficiency counts for this nursing home. Finally, this facility had no substantiated complaints this year from residents, which is an excellent sign.

Short-term Care Quality

Grade: A-minus

Contributing to its high-end assessment, this nursing home also was awarded a dominant short-term care grade, with a score of A-. In the area of short-term care, we seek to evaluate indicators of a nursing home's rehabilitation services. We look at the facility's skilled nursing services, such as those performed by registered nurses and physical and occupational therapists. Unfortunately, it does not appear that this nursing home submitted information about its staffing of registered nurses or physical therapists. Lastly, we assessed the percentage of patients that were able to return home from this nursing home. We found that 5.6 percent of this nursing home's patients returned home.

Long-term Care Quality

Grade: A-minus

Turning our next area, this nursing home was given a strong long-term care score. In fact, it received a score of A- in that category. Facilities that excel in long-term care tend to provide patients with more supervision and stay on top of routine healthcare services. In addition to considering the volume of care provided by nurses aids and other staff, we also looked at the percentage of residents vaccinated for pneumonia. This nursing home vaccinated 98.49056 percent of its patients, which is much higher than most nursing homes. Finally, this place was able to limit hospitalizations. In fact, it had only 0.01 hospitalizations per one thousand long-term resident days, which is a remarkably low number.

Nurse Quality

Grade: B-plus

In the final category we rated, this nursing home was awarded a very strong grade of B+ in our nursing category. With this grade, the nursing home completed a very impressive report card. There are quite a few factors within this area. Many of these criteria reflect the quantity of nurse staffing. This facility provided 0.4 hours of nursing care per resident per day. Lastly, our nursing grades also factor in quality-based assessments, such as avoiding major falls. This nursing home performed better than average in this area. This is often a good indicator that a place has reliable quality controls in place. Major falls can generally be prevented if more nurses aids and better safety protocols are in place.
