Facility Inspections
The primary reason this turned out to be a decent nursing home is that it received an elite inspection grade. Its inspection score was far superior to its overall grade. In the inspections category, we gave it a grade of A+. Arguably the most important factor we consider in calculating our inspection grades is deficiencies. These deficiencies can be found on a nursing home's recent inspection reports. Nursing homes with better grades in this category typically dodged the most severe deficiencies involving things like patient abuse. While this nursing home had a few minor dings on its inspection report, it had zero severe deficiencies. Severe deficiencies are those labeled as categories G through L. This tells you that the government inspectors didn't 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.
Short-term Care Quality
We also gave this nursing home a strong grade in short-term care. This nursing home earned a grade of B in this category, which happens to be one of our more favorable scores. Our short-term care grades are based on the facility's quantity of skilled nursing services. This includes a vast scope of nursing services, spanning from registered nurses to physical and occupational therapists, in addition to other variations of therapy. We were extremely impressed to find that this facility offers its residents substantially more physical therapist hours than most other nursing homes. Finally, we looked at the number of patients who were able to return to the community from this facility. We found that it outperformed the vast majority of nursing homes with 58.1 percent of its residents returning home. This is a significantly higher rate than most facilities.
Long-term Care Quality
This nursing home's third highest category turned out to be its long-term care score, where it was given a grade of B-. Our long-term care ratings are more important for patients requiring more conventional services associated with personal care. After assessing the volume of care provided by nurses aids and other staff, we next considered the facility's vaccination data. We were concerned by the fact that this nursing home vaccinated just 89.73684 percent of its patients against pneumonia. Nevertheless, this facility keeps its patients out of the hospital. It had less than one hospitalization per 1,000 long-term resident days, which is an impressively low figure.
Nurse Quality
This nursing home's least impressive category was nursing, which is the final area we assessed. It received an F in this category. In spite of multiple respectable grades in other areas, this score is nevertheless concerning so we would like to to make a note of it. Our nursing score analyzes many subcategories, most of which are based on levels of nurse staffing. This facility provided 3.7 hours of nursing care per resident per day. This is below the national average. On top of receiving below average marks for total nursing hours, this place was less impressive in some of the quality-based metrics we looked at in calculating our nursing grades. We looked at the percent of residents suffering pressure ulcers and found this facility was at roughly 150 percent of the national average in this statistic.
