Facility Inspections

Grade: A

On top of being a first rate facility overall, it also excelled in inspections, where it earned an A. Few facilities performed better in this area. We take several aspects of a facility's inspection report into consideration in calculating these inspection scores. One critical factor is health deficiencies. It should be noted that the severity of these deficiencies is usually more meaningful than the quantity of deficiencies, as some of these end up being relatively minor. This particular nursing home received 3 deficiencies on its inspection report. Finally, this facility had no substantiated complaints this year from residents, which is an excellent sign.

Long-term Care Quality

Grade: A

This facility also was awarded a very strong long-term care grade. In fact, this is its second best category grade. In that area, this facility received a grade of A. For residents looking for a permanent place to live rather than skilled nursing, long-term care is a very important category. In addition to considering the quantity of care provided by nurses aids and other staff, we also looked at the percentage of residents vaccinated for pneumonia. This nursing home administered the vaccine to 93.43066 percent of its patients, which is slightly less than we were hoping for. Finally, this facility was able to limit hospitalizations. Indeed, it had only 0.02 hospitalizations per one thousand long-term resident days, which is a remarkably low number.

Short-term Care Quality

Grade: A-minus

This nursing home also received a dominant short-term care score. Indeed, this is this facility's third strongest category score. In that category, this facility received a score of A-. Our short-term care grades are likely more critical for folks in need of rehabilitation services. Rehabilitation usually requires more skilled nursing. Skilled nursing means not just nursing services, but also physical and speech therapy, as well as other variations of therapy. Fortunately, it appear that this facility employs registered nurses. Not all facilities employs these types of nurses. However, according to the data this nursing home provided, it does not look like the facility employs physical therapists. The final metric we looked at in this area is the percentage of residents who were able to leave the nursing home and return to the community. We discovered that 5.4 percent of this facility's patients were able to return home.

Nurse Quality

Grade: B-plus

In the final category we assessed, this facility received an impressive grade grade of B+ in our nursing category. With this score, the nursing home completed an elite profile. Our nursing rating is based on the facility's level of nurse staffing. We consider both the levels of training of those nurses as well as the amount of time spent with patients. This particular nursing home provided 0.4 hours of nursing care per resident per day. Finally, we also assessed 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 place the nation in this category. This is generally a good indicator of quality nursing care. Pressure ulcers can frequently be avoided by providing better nursing care, such as employing a system of moving a patient more frequently.
