Facility Inspections

Grade: A-plus

In addition to being a first rate facility overall, this nursing home performed well in our inspections category, where it received an A+. Very few nursing homes fared this well in this area. Perhaps the most significant factor we consider in determining our inspection scores is deficiencies. Deficiencies can be found on a facility's recent inspection reports. Places with better scores in this category most likely avoided the more severe deficiencies involving patient abuse or death. 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. Even some of the best nursing homes receive an occasional ding on their inspection report.

Short-term Care Quality

Grade: A

Contributing to its impressive resume, this nursing home also excelled in our short-term care category. In fact, it received a score of A in that area. In the category of short-term care, we strive to assess indicators of a facility's rehabilitation. We look at the facility's skilled nursing services, including the ones performed by registered nurses and physical therapists. Fortunately, it looks like this nursing home has registered nurses on staff. Not all facilities employs these skilled professionals. However, based on the data this nursing home provided, it does not look like the facility employs physical therapists. Lastly, we looked at the percentage of patients that ultimately returned home from this nursing home. We found that 6.2 percent of this facility's patients returned home.

Nurse Quality

Grade: A-minus

This facility also excelled in the area of nursing, where it received a grade of A-. Few nursing homes performed better in this area. In calculating a nursing home's nursing grade, we look at the quantity of hours nurses commit to patients and the level of licensure of the nurses. This nursing home provides 0.4 hours of nursing care per resident per day. Lastly, we also assessed some nursing quality-based metrics in determining our nursing grades. This place performed very well in terms of minimizing its residents' 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-minus

Switching gears to the last category, this facility was awarded a respectable long-term care score. Although this is not as elite as some of its other grades, this is truly a middle of the pack score. For residents seeking a permanent residence as opposed to skilled nursing, long-term care is an important category. In addition to considering the amount of care provided by nurses and other staff, we looked at the percentage of residents vaccinated for pneumonia. This nursing home gave the vaccine to 86.36364 percent of its residents. This is multiple points less than what we were hoping for. Nevertheless, this place keeps its residents out of the hospital. It had only 0.01 hospitalizations per 1,000 long-term resident days, which is an impressively low number.
