Short-term Care Quality

Grade: A

In addition to being a first rate nursing home overall, this facility also excelled in the category of short-term care, where it received an impressive grade of A. In the category of short-term care, we attempt to assess indicators of a facility's rehabilitation services. We assess a facility's skilled nursing services, including the ones performed by registered nurses and physical, occupational and other therapists. Unfortunately, it does not look like this facility submitted data regarding its registered nurse or physical therapy staffing. Finally, we looked at the percentage of patients who were able to return to the community from this nursing home. We found that 6.6 percent of this facility's residents returned home.

Facility Inspections

Grade: A-minus

Adding to this facility's impressive resume, we awarded this facility an A- for our inspections rating. Inspection grades take several factors into consideration, including deficiencies and federal fines. You can learn more about each of these factors by reviewing copies of nursing homes' inspection reports. 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: B-plus

This nursing home also received a strong nursing score. In fact, we awarded it an above average grade of B+ in this area. We analyzed the skill-level of nurses employed by the facility, as well as the number of hours the nurses worked with patients, in computing our rating in this area. This nursing home averages 0 hours of nursing care per resident per day. Finally, we also assessed some nursing quality measures in determining our nursing grades. This place performed very well when it comes to avoiding major falls and pressure ulcers. We consider these areas to be good indicators of the quality of nursing care.

Long-term Care Quality

Grade: B-plus

In the last category we analyzed, this facility received a very favorable grade of B+ in our long-term care category. With this grade, the nursing home completed a very strong report card. For residents looking for a permanent place to live as opposed to rehabilitation, long-term care grades are a key measure. After considering the volume of care provided by aids and other staff, we then looked at the facility's vaccination records. We weren't able to find information about this nursing home's vaccination rates. Clearly, this place is doing something right in this area as it also excelled at keeping its patients out of the hospital. In fact, it had only 0 hospitalizations per 1,000 long-term resident days, which is an impressively low number.
