Facility Inspections

To go along with its strong overall grade, we awarded this nursing home a grade of A+ for our inspections rating. Our inspection ratings weigh several factors found on a nursing home's inspection report. One of the most important criteria we consider is the number and severity of deficiencies. Facilities with higher grades in this area typically have few severe deficiencies. Although this place had some deficiencies on its inspection report, none were serious based on CMS' deficiency scale. Finally, this facility had no substantiated complaints this year from residents, which is an excellent sign.

Long-term Care Quality

One of the other reasons we graded this facility so well is that it was given a dominant long-term care grade. In fact, long-term care is its second most impressive category grade. In that area, we awarded this facility a score of A. For patients seeking a permanent residence rather than rehabilitation, long-term care is a very important category. After considering the quantity of care provided by aids and other staff, we next considered the nursing home's vaccination statistics. This nursing home vaccinated 79.18215 percent of its residents against pneumonia, which happens to be somewhat below what we were hoping for but still a decent figure. Clearly, this nursing home is doing something right in this area as it also excelled at keeping its residents out of the hospital. In fact, it had less than one hospitalization per 1,000 long-term resident days, which is a remarkably low number.

Nurse Quality

This nursing home also received a strong nursing score. In fact, we awarded it an above average grade of B in this area. Our nursing rating is largely tied to a nursing home's nurse staffing. This nursing home provides 0.4 hours of nursing care per resident per day. Finally, we also assessed several nursing quality-based metrics and this facility excelled in some of these areas. With less than five percent of its residents sustaining pressure ulcers, it performed as well as any facility the state in this category. This is generally a good indicator of quality nursing care. Pressure ulcers can often be prevented by providing better nursing care, such as by employing a protocol of turning residents more often.

Short-term Care Quality

The last area we scored was short-term care. In this category, we awarded this nursing home a decent grade of C. This was this facility's weakest category. Our short-term care scores are arguably more critical for individuals requiring rehabilitation services. Rehabilitation usually mandates more highly-skilled nursing services. This means not just nursing services, but also physical and speech therapy, as well as other forms of therapy. Fortunately, it looks like this facility employs registered nurses. Not every nursing home employs these skilled professionals. However, according to the data they provided, it does not look like the facility employs physical therapists. The final statistic we assessed in this category is the number of patients who were able to leave the facility and return to the community. We discovered that just 4.6 percent of this facility's residents were able to return home, which is actually below average.
