Facility Inspections

Grade: A

In addition to receiving a strong overall score, this nursing home also received excellent inspections recently. We gave it one of our best scores in that category, with an A. Our inspection ratings weigh several factors found on a facility's inspection reports. One key criteria we look at is the quantity and severity of deficiencies. Places with better scores in this area generally have few severe deficiencies. Fortunately, although this nursing home had a few minor dings on its report, it had zero severe deficiencies. Severe deficiencies are those found in categories G through L. This means the government inspectors did not consider any of the deficiencies on this facility's report to pose an imminent threat to patient safety or health. Finally, this facility had no substantiated complaints this year from residents, which is an excellent sign.

Long-term Care Quality

Grade: A-minus

Adding to its superb profile, this nursing home also performed well in our long-term care category. In fact, we gave it a score of A- for the area. Facilities that receive this kind of grade in long-term care tend to provide consistent around the clock care to make sure residents are well cared for. On top of looking at the quantity of care provided by nurses aids and other staff, we looked at the number of residents vaccinated for pneumonia. This facility vaccinated 99.45355 percent of its patients. Vaccines are critical to keeping patients out of the hospital. Lastly, this facility was able to limit hospitalizations. Indeed, it had less than one hospitalization per one thousand long-term resident days, which is an impressively low figure.

Short-term Care Quality

Grade: B-plus

Additionally, this facility also was given favorable short-term care scores this year. Indeed, we gave it one of our higher scores in that area, with a grade of B+. Our short-term care ratings are probably most meaningful for patients requiring rehabilitation services. Rehabilitation usually utilizes more highly-skilled nursing. This includes not just nursing services, but also physical and respiratory therapy, as well as other forms of therapy. Fortunately, it looks like this nursing home has registered nurses on staff. Not all nursing homes employs these types of nurses. On the other hand, according to the information this nursing home provided, it does not look like the facility employs physical therapists. The last item we assessed in this area is the percentage of patients who were able to leave the nursing home and return home. We discovered that 4.8 percent of this facility's patients were able to return home.

Nurse Quality

Grade: B

The final area we assessed is nursing, where this facility was given a B. Although this wound up being its worst category grade, this is nevertheless an above average grade. Our nursing grade analyzes the nursing home's nurse staffing levels. We factor in both the levels of training of those nurses as well as the amount of time spent with residents. This nursing home provides 0.4 hours of nursing care per resident per day. Finally, we also assessed certain nursing quality measures in computing our nursing grades. These include minimizing residents' pressure ulcers and major falls. We look at these statistics as predictive measures of the quality of nursing care being provided, since better care tends to reduce these problems.
