Facility Inspections
To go along with its great overall score, we gave this nursing home a grade of A for our inspections rating. Perhaps the most important factor we look at in computing our inspection ratings is deficiencies. These deficiencies are found on a nursing home's inspection reports. Facilities with better grades in this category typically dodged the more severe deficiencies involving health risks or even death. This particular nursing home had just a single deficiency on its inspection report and it was not one deemed to pose a threat to patient health or safety. Even some of the best nursing homes receive an occasional ding on their inspection report.
Long-term Care Quality
Contributing to its fine resume, this nursing home also was given a superb long-term care grade, with a grade of A. Facilities that excel in long-term care tend to be well-staffed and offer extensive hands on care to patients. Once we looked at the amount of care provided by nurses aids and other staff, we then looked at the nursing home's vaccination records. This facility vaccinated 95.24887 percent of its residents for pneumonia, which is higher than most nursing homes. Lastly, this facility was able to limit hospitalizations. It had less than one hospitalization per one thousand long-term resident days, which is an impressively low figure.

This facility is also strong in the category of short-term care, where it was awarded a score of B+. It performed more favorably than most facilities in this category. Our short-term care grades are arguably more important for those in need of rehabilitation from their nursing home. Rehabilitation generally requires additional highly-skilled nursing. Skilled nursing means not just nursing, but also physical and speech therapy, as well as other forms of therapy. Fortunately, it appear that this nursing home has registered nurses on staff. Not every nursing home employs these skilled professionals. On the other hand, based on the information they provided, it does not look like the facility employs physical therapists. The final measure we considered in this category is the percentage of residents who were able to leave the nursing home and return home. We discovered that 5.2 percent of this facility's residents were able to return home.
Nurse Quality
The final category we looked at was nursing, where this nursing home was awarded a B+. This wrapped up a very impressive profile. Not many facilities earned a B+ or higher in each of our categories. We assessed the licensure of nurses employed by the facility, in addition to the quantity of time the nurses spent with patients, in computing our score in this area. This facility provided 0.4 hours of nursing care per resident per day. Finally, our nursing grades also factor in quality-based assessments, such as avoiding major falls. This facility performed well in this area. Avoiding major falls is typically a good indicator that a place has reliable quality controls in place. Major falls can many times be avoided if more nurses aids and better safety protocols are in place.
