Long-term Care Quality

Grade: A-plus

On top of receiving a strong overall grade, this nursing home also earned an elite long-term care grade. We awarded them one of our higher scores in that category, with an impressive grade of A+. When facilities receive this type of score in long-term care it is usually a good sign for patient care and suggests that the nursing home is well-staffed with nurses and aids. On top of assessing the quantity of care provided by nurses and other staff, we analyzed the percentage of residents vaccinated against pneumonia. This facility provided the vaccine to 100 percent of its patients, which is what we like to see. Pneumonia is often a dangerous ailment for nursing home patients so we prefer when a facility does not leave its residents vulnerable. Clearly, this nursing home is doing something right in this area as it was able to keep its residents out of the hospital. Indeed, it had only 0.01 hospitalizations per one thousand long-term resident days, which is a remarkably low number.

Nurse Quality

Grade: A

One of the other reasons we graded this facility so highly is that it received a very impressive nursing rating. In fact, nursing proved to be its second best category grade. In that area, we gave this facility a grade of A. When computing a nursing home's nursing rating, we consider the number of hours nurses commit to residents and the level of skill of the nurses. This facility provided 0.4 hours of nursing care per resident per day. Finally, we also looked at several nursing quality measures and this facility 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 often be prevented by providing better nursing care, such as employing a policy of turning a patient even once per day.

Short-term Care Quality

Grade: A-minus

This facility was awarded high scores in the area of short-term care also. Consequently, we gave it one of our most favorable grades in that category with a area of A-. In the category of short-term care, we try to assess indicators of a nursing home's rehabilitation services. We look at the nursing home's skilled nursing services, such as those performed by registered nurses and various therapists. Fortunately, it looks like this facility has registered nurses on staff. Not all nursing homes employs these types of nurses. However, according to the data this nursing home provided, they do not appear to employ physical therapists. Lastly, we considered the number of residents that ultimately returned home from this nursing home. We found that 0 percent of this facility's residents returned home.

Facility Inspections

Grade: C

In the last category of inspections, we gave this nursing home a score of C for this category. We take several aspects of a facility's inspection report into consideration in calculating these inspection ratings. One of those factors is health deficiencies. You should keep in mind that the severity of these deficiencies is arguably more meaningful than the quantity of deficiencies, as some end up being quite minor. Amazingly, this was one of the few nursing homes in the country that had no deficiencies whatsoever on its inspection report. Finally, this facility had no substantiated complaints this year from residents, which is an excellent sign.
