One of the reasons this place is a quality facility is that it received a very impressive inspection grade. In fact, inspections is its best category grade. In this area, we gave it an A. Inspection scores are based on items located in the a nursing home's recent inspection reports. Places that receive favorable grades in this area typically have very few deficiencies on those reports. Most importantly, these places should not have any severe deficiencies which are associated with risks to patient safety. This nursing home was hit with 5 deficiencies on its inspection report, but fortunately none of the deficiencies were considered severe. This tells you that CMS didn't consider any of these deficiencies to be an immediate risk to resident safety or health. Finally, this facility had no substantiated complaints this year from residents, which is an excellent sign.
Long-term Care Quality
We also gave this nursing home a grade of A- for our long-term care score. Facilities that excel in long-term care typically are well-staffed and provide extensive hands on care to residents. After we finished assessing the volume of care provided by nurses, we then looked at the nursing home's vaccination record. This nursing home vaccinated 99.03537 percent of its patients for pneumonia, which is what we like to see. Pneumonia is often a life threatening ailment for nursing home patients so we strongly prefer when a nursing home doesn't leave this to chance. Finally, this nursing home was able to limit hospitalizations. It had less than one hospitalization per one thousand long-term resident days, which is an impressively low number.
