Registered Staff Hours
Facility Inspections
To go along with a strong overall grade, we gave this nursing home an A+ for our inspections rating. We take several aspects of a facility's inspection report into consideration in determining these inspection ratings. One key factor is health deficiencies. It should be noted that the severity of the deficiencies is arguably more important than the quantity of deficiencies, as some of these can be quite minor. Although this place had some deficiencies on its inspection report, none of them were major deficiencies based on CMS' scale. Finally, this facility had no substantiated complaints this year from residents, which is an excellent sign.
Nurse Quality
This facility also excelled in the area of nursing, where it received a grade of A. Few nursing homes performed better in this area. Nursing ratings are mostly tied to a nursing home's nurse staffing. This nursing home provides 0.4 hours of nursing care per resident per day. Finally, we also assessed several nursing quality-based metrics and this place excelled in some of these areas. With less than five percent of its residents sustaining pressure ulcers, it performed as well as any nursing home Pennsylvania in this category. This is generally a good indicator of quality nursing care. Pressure ulcers can often be avoided by offering better nursing care, such as employing a policy of moving patients even once per day.

Short-term Care Quality
We also want to note the fact that this facility was given an elite grade of A in our short-term care area. In the area of short-term care, we strive to qualify indicators of a facility's rehabilitation services. We analyze a nursing home's skilled nursing services, including those performed by registered nurses and physical and occupational therapists. Fortunately, it looks like this nursing home has registered nurses on staff. Not every facility employs these skilled professionals. However, based on the information they provided, they do not appear to employ physical therapists. The final item we looked at in this category is the number of residents who were able to leave the facility and return to the community. We found that 5 percent of this nursing home's patients returned home.
Long-term Care Quality
In the last area, we gave this nursing home an A+ for our long-term care rating. This finished off a very favorable report card. When nursing homes receive this kind of score in this category it is a good sign for patient care and indicates that the place is well-staffed with nurses aids. One of the criteria we considered after nurse's aid hours was vaccines. This facility administered the pneumonia vaccination to 93.99142 percent of its patients. This is a reliable method to avoid unnecessary deaths for the elderly population. Lastly, this place was able to limit hospitalizations. In fact, it had less than one hospitalization per 1,000 long-term resident days, which is a remarkably low figure.
