Long-term Care Quality

Grade: A

In addition to receiving a great overall grade, this nursing home excelled in our shot-term care category. In fact, we awarded it a grade of A for that category. Facilities that receive this type of score in long-term care tend to provide consistent around the clock care to ensure residents are well cared for. One of the datapoints we considered after nursing hours is vaccinations. This nursing home administered the pneumonia vaccination to 98.54772 percent of its patients. Vaccination is a reliable method to minimize unnecessary deaths and hospitalizations for the elderly population. Lastly, this facility was able to limit hospitalizations. In fact, it had only 0.01 hospitalizations per 1,000 long-term resident days, which is a remarkably low number.

Facility Inspections

Grade: A-minus

Adding to this facility's impressive resume, we awarded this nursing home an A- for our inspections rating. Inspection ratings account for several factors found on a nursing home's inspection reports. One of the most important criteria we consider is the number and severity of deficiencies. Places with higher scores in this category usually have few of these severe deficiencies. This particular nursing home had just a single deficiency on its inspection report and it was not one deemed to pose a threat to patient health or safety. Finally, this facility had no substantiated complaints this year from residents, which is an excellent sign.

Nurse Quality

Grade: A-minus

This nursing home also received a very impressive nursing grade. In that area, we awarded this facility a grade of A-. There are a number of subcategories included in this area. Many of these criteria reflect nurse staffing. This nursing home provides 0.4 hours of nursing care per resident per day. Finally, we also looked at several nursing quality-based metrics and this nursing home excelled in some of these areas. With less than five percent of its residents sustaining pressure ulcers, it performed as well as any facility the state in this category. This is generally a good indicator of quality nursing care. Pressure ulcers can frequently be prevented by offering better nursing care, such as by employing a system of turning a patient even once per day.

Short-term Care Quality

Grade: B-plus

Moving on to the next area, this facility also excelled in our short-term care category. In fact, we gave it a B+ in that category. This wrapped up a very impressive report card. Our short-term care scores are probably most meaningful for patients in need of a nursing home for rehabilitation. Rehabilitation usually requires higher levels of highly-skilled nursing services. This includes not merely nursing services, but also physical and occupational therapy, as well as other types of therapy. Fortunately, it appear that this facility has registered nurses on staff. Not every nursing home employs these skilled professionals. However, according to the data this nursing home provided, it does not look like the facility employs physical therapists. Finally, we assessed the percentage of patients who who were able to eventually return home from this facility. We found that 5.1 percent of this nursing home's residents were able to return home.
