Facility Inspections
On top of being a strong nursing home overall, it also earned A+ government inspections in recent years. Its inspections are nearly perfect. We weigh several aspects of a nursing home's inspection report in computing these inspection grades. One key factor is health deficiencies. You should keep in mind that the severity of these deficiencies is arguably more important than the number of deficiencies, as some of these can be quite minor. While this place had some minor dings on its inspection report, it had zero severe deficiencies. Severe deficiencies are labeled as categories G, H, I, J, K and L. This tells you that the 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
In addition, this facility was given elite marks in the category of short-term care. For this reason, it was given one of our most impressive scores in that category with a grade of A+. Short-term care grades are often employed to gauge a nursing home's rehabilitation services. To provide highly rated rehabilitation services, facilities generally must have better levels of skilled nursing services. These types of services include registered nurses, physical therapists, respiratory therapists and other types of therapists. This facility is above average both in terms of its quantity of physical therapy and registered nurse hours provided to its patients. The final item we assessed in this area is the number of patients that who were able to eventually return home from the facility. We found that it performed as well as just about any facility in New York in this area with 69.2 percent of its patients returning home.
Nurse Quality
Adding to its strong resume, this facility also received an excellent nursing score, with a grade of A. Nursing scores are based largely on quality and quantity of nursing care. This place provided 5 hours of nursing care per resident daily, which is among the better figures in the country. A significant percentage of those hours were provided by registered nurses, which are one of the most skilled levels of nurses. We were really impressed by these statistics. On top of providing impressive levels of nursing care, this nursing home was also above average in each of the major quality measures we looked at in this category. For example, it performed well in the area of avoiding pressure ulcers and major falls. These areas are generally reliable indicators of the quality of nursing care a nursing home provides.
Long-term Care Quality
In the last area, we awarded this facility an A+ for our long-term care rating. This finished off a very favorable profile. Long-term care ratings of this caliber generally require both 24/7 care from nurses and aids, as well as quality routine healthcare services. After assessing the quantity of care provided by nurses aids and other staff, we next considered the nursing home's vaccination records. This facility vaccinated 91.16279 percent of its residents for pneumonia, which is a bit below what we anticipated but still a respectable percentage. Lastly, this place was able to limit hospitalizations. It had less than one hospitalization per one thousand long-term resident days, which is a remarkably low number.
