Nurse Quality
In addition to receiving a great overall grade, this nursing home received an A+ for nursing. We looked at the levels of nurses employed by the facility, in addition to the quantity of hours those nurses spent with patients, in computing our grade in this category. This particular facility provided 4.9 hours of nursing care per resident each day. This was one of the more impressive totals we found. Furthermore, we found that a significant portion of this care was provided by registered nurses, which are highly skilled nurses. These are both really impressive figures. On top of providing high levels of nursing care, this nursing home also excelled in the quality-based metrics we assessed. By way of illustration, it performed as well as any nursing home in the nation in terms of avoiding major falls and pressure ulcers. We view these metrics as predictive indicators of the caliber of nursing care being provided.
Facility Inspections
This facility has also received near flawless health inspections in recent years. We awarded them an impressive grade of A+ in this category. Perhaps the most critical factor we consider in determining our inspection grades is deficiencies. These deficiencies can be found on a nursing home's recent inspection reports. Places with better grades in this category typically dodged the more severe deficiencies involving things like patient abuse. Fortunately, although this facility had a few minor dings on its inspection report, it had zero severe deficiencies. Severe deficiencies are ones found in categories G, H, I, J, K and L. This tells you that the government inspectors did not consider any of the deficiencies on this facility's report to pose an imminent threat to patient health or safety. Finally, this facility had no substantiated complaints this year from residents, which is an excellent sign.
Long-term Care Quality
We also want to point out the fact that this facility received an impressive grade of A in our long-term care area. In a long-term care setting, the facility's primary objective is to keep patients healthy and safe. This is different than skilled nursing or short-term care where the goal is to rehabilitate patients. Even though we determined this nursing home has a favorable quantity of nursing hours provided by nurses aids and other nursing staff, we found its vaccine statistics to be a bit slightly lower than we anticipated. This facility provided the pneumonia vaccine to just 83.941605 percent of its patients. This is one figure we'd love to see this facility bring up. While its vaccination rate was a bit lower than we like to see, we were pleased to find place was able to limit hospitalizations. With only 1.34 hospitalizations per 1,000 long-term resident days, this nursing home had fewer hospitalizations than most nursing homes.
Short-term Care Quality
Turning to our next area, this nursing home was awarded a strong short-term care grade. In fact, we awarded it a grade of A- in that category, rounding out a straight A profile. In the area of short-term care, we strive to assess measures of a facility's rehabilitation. We analyze a facility's skilled nursing services, such as the ones performed by registered nurses and physical therapists. This nursing home elevated its grade in this category by providing more care from registered nurses than the typical nursing home. The last metric we looked at in this category is the percentage of patients who were able to leave the facility and return to the community. This place was respectable in this area with 46.9 percent of its residents returning home.
