Facility Inspections
To go along with its strong overall grade, we awarded this nursing home a grade of A+ for our inspections rating. Perhaps the most important factor we consider in calculating our inspection ratings is deficiencies. These deficiencies are found on a facility's recent inspection reports. Places with higher grades in this category most likely dodged the more severe deficiencies involving health risks or even death. While this nursing home had some minor dings on its government inspection report, it had no severe deficiencies. Severe deficiencies are those found in categories G through L. This tells you that the inspectors did not consider any of the deficiencies on this facility's report to pose an imminent threat to patient health or safety. Finally, this facility had no substantiated complaints this year from residents, which is an excellent sign.
Short-term Care Quality
This facility also was given a very strong short-term care score. This actually ended up being this facility's second strongest category score. In that category, we gave this facility a score of A. In forming these short-term care ratings, we look at the facility's skilled nursing services, including those performed by registered nurses, occupational therapists, physical therapists and other types of skilled professionals. Our objective is to create a scale for sizing up the rehabilitation services of nursing homes. Fortunately, it looks like this nursing home employs registered nurses. Not all facilities employs these types of nurses. On the other hand, based on the information they provided, it does not look like the facility employs physical therapists. Lastly, we considered the number of patients who were able to return home from this facility. We found that 6.6 percent of this nursing home's residents were able to return home.

This nursing home vaccinated 100 percent of its patients, which is much higher than most nursing homes. Finally, this facility was able to limit hospitalizations.

Nurse Quality
The final area we scored is nursing, where this nursing home was awarded a grade of A-. This completed a first-rate report card. Very few nursing homes earned an A- or better in in each area we assessed. Our nursing rating looks at the facility's level of nurse staffing. We look at both the levels of skill of the nurses as well as the quantity of hours spent with patients. This facility provided 0.4 hours of nursing care per resident per day. Finally, our nursing grades also factor in quality-based assessments, such as avoiding major falls. This nursing home performed well in this area. Avoiding major falls is typically a good indicator that a facility has reliable quality controls in place. Major falls can frequently be prevented if more nurses aids and better safety protocols are in place.
