Long-term Care Quality
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. When facilities receive this kind of grade in this category it is usually a good sign for patient care and indicates that the nursing home is well-staffed with nurses aids. Once we concluded our assessment of the quantity of nursing care, we then looked at the facility's vaccination data. This facility vaccinated 96.666664 percent of its patients against pneumonia, which is very impressive. Pneumonia is too frequently a life threatening condition for nursing home residents so we strongly prefer when a facility doesn't leave this to chance. Lastly, this place was able to limit hospitalizations. Indeed, it had only 0.03 hospitalizations per 1,000 long-term resident days, which is a remarkably low number.
Facility Inspections
Adding to this facility's impressive resume, we awarded this nursing home a grade of A for our inspections rating. We weigh several aspects of a nursing home's inspection report in computing our inspection scores. One key factor 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 of these are relatively insignificant. This facility received 4 deficiencies on its inspection report, but none were considered to be severe deficiencies. This tells you that the government inspectors didn't consider any of these deficiencies to create an imminent threat to patient health or safety. Finally, this facility had no substantiated complaints this year from residents, which is an excellent sign.

Skilled nursing means not just nursing services, but also physical and occupational therapy, as well as other types of therapy. Fortunately, it appear that this nursing home has registered nurses on staff. Not all nursing homes employs these skilled professionals. On the other hand, according to the data this nursing home provided, they do not appear to employ physical therapists. Finally, we assessed the percentage of residents who ultimately were able to return home from this facility. We found that 5.8 percent of this nursing home's patients returned home.

Turning to our final area, this nursing home also performed admirably in the nursing category. We awarded it an A- in this category. This rounded out a straight A profile. The nursing rating is based on several data points. The most important one is the quantity of hours nurses spend with residents. This particular nursing home provided 0.4 hours of nursing care per resident per day. Finally, we also assessed certain nursing quality-based metrics in computing our nursing grades. These include minimizing residents' pressure ulcers and major falls. We view these statistics as good measures of the caliber of nursing care being provided, since better care tends to reduce these problems.
