Long-term Care Quality
One of the many reasons this turned out to be a great nursing home is that it received an A+ long-term care grade. This is simply as good as it gets in this category. When nursing homes receive this kind of score in long-term care it is typically a good sign for resident care and suggests that the facility is well-staffed with nurses aids. After we finished assessing the quantity of care provided by nurses, we then looked at the facility's vaccination record. This nursing home vaccinated 100 percent of its patients against pneumonia, which is an impressive figure. Pneumonia tragically can be a deadly ailment for nursing home patients so we strongly prefer when a facility does not take any chances. The last statistic we looked at was the nursing home's hospitalization rate. Here we found that this nursing home had 2.85 hospitalizations per 1,000 long-term resident days. While this admittedly wasn't as favorable as some of its other scores in this category, this number may be skewed for some nursing homes based on the medical complexity of patients.
Facility Inspections
This facility also received a nearly flawless inspection report. As a result, it earned one of our highest grades in that area with an A+. This was one of the few nursing homes to receive multiple A+'s. We weigh several aspects of a nursing home's inspection report in calculating these inspection ratings. One key factor is health deficiencies. It should be noted that the severity of the deficiencies is usually more important than the number of deficiencies, as some deficiencies can be quite insignificant. This place was assessed 4 deficiencies on its inspection report, but fortunately none of the deficiencies were considered to be severe. This indicates that CMS did not consider any of the deficiencies to pose an immediate risk to patient safety or health. Finally, this facility had no substantiated complaints this year from residents, which is an excellent sign.
Nurse Quality
Among its many impressive grades, this facility received an excellent nursing grade. In fact, we gave it a grade of A in that category. Our nursing grade analyzes several subcategories, many of which are tied to levels of nurse staffing. This particular nursing home provided 0 hours of nursing care per resident per day. Finally, we also looked at some nursing quality measures in determining our nursing grades. This place performed very well in the area of minimizing its residents' major falls and pressure ulcers. We consider these areas to be good indicators of the quality of nursing care.
Short-term Care Quality
The final area we looked at is short-term care. In that area, we awarded this facility an acceptable grade of B-. This actually ended up being this facility's least impressive category. Short-term care grades are meaningful for individuals needing rehabilitation. Rehabilitation typically requires higher levels of highly-skilled nursing. Skilled nursing means a wide scope of nursing services, ranging from registered nurses to physical and occupational therapists, as well as other variations of therapy. We weren't able to find information on registered nurse or physical therapy staffing for this nursing home. Lastly, we considered the number of residents who were able to return home from this facility. We found that 31.1 percent of this facility's residents were able to return home. This figure was actually well below average.
