Facility Inspections

Grade: A

In addition to performing well in its overall grade, this nursing home earned a nearly flawless inspection report. Consequently, it received one of our best scores in that area with an A. Arguably the most important factor we look at in determining our inspection scores is deficiencies. Deficiencies are found on a facility's recent inspection reports. Places with better scores in this category most likely dodged the more severe deficiencies involving patient abuse or death. While this place had some deficiencies on its government inspection report, none were severe based on CMS' scale. Finally, this facility had no substantiated complaints this year from residents, which is an excellent sign.

Short-term Care Quality

Grade: A

To complement its impressive accomplishments in other areas, we gave this nursing home a score of A for its short-term care score. In the category of short-term care, we attempt to qualify measures of a facility's rehabilitation. We assess a nursing home's skilled nursing services, such as those performed by registered nurses and physical, occupational and other therapists. Fortunately, it looks like this facility has registered nurses on staff. Not all facilities employs these types of nurses. On the other hand, according to the information they provided, it does not look like the facility employs physical therapists. The last statistic we assessed in this category is the percentage of residents who eventually returned home from the facility. We found that 0 percent of this nursing home's patients returned home as opposed to remaining at the facility on a permanent basis.

Nurse Quality

Grade: A

We also wanted to emphasize the fact that this facility received an impressive grade of A in our nursing category. Our nursing score assesses a handful of factors, but the most important one is the quantity of nurse hours spent with patients. This nursing home provides 0.6 hours of nursing care per resident per day. Finally, we also assessed 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.

Long-term Care Quality

Grade: A

Moving on to the fourth area, this facility was given a highly favorable long-term care grade. We gave it a grade of A in this area, resulting in this facility receiving straight A's. Long-term care grades of this caliber generally require both 24/7 care from nurses and aids, as well as quality routine medical care. Once we concluded our assessment of the quantity of nursing care, we then analyzed the nursing home's vaccination record. This facility vaccinated 100 percent of its patients against pneumonia, which is what we like to see. Pneumonia tragically can be a dangerous health condition for nursing home patients so we prefer when a nursing home does not take any chances. Lastly, this nursing home was able to limit hospitalizations. It had only 0 hospitalizations per 1,000 long-term resident days, which is an impressively low figure.
