Facility Inspections
To go along with its strong overall grade, we awarded this nursing home a grade of A- for our inspections rating. Arguably the most critical factor we consider in computing our inspection ratings is deficiencies. These deficiencies are found on a nursing home's recent inspection reports. Facilities with higher scores in this category typically avoided the more severe deficiencies involving patient abuse or death. Fortunately, although this place had some minor dings on its government inspection report, it had no severe deficiencies. Severe deficiencies are those found in categories G through L. This means CMS didn't deem any of the deficiencies on this facility's report to pose an imminent threat to patient safety or health. Keep in mind that deficiency-free inspection reports are uncommon in the industry.
Nurse Quality
Among this facility's other strengths is its elite nursing grade. We awarded them one of our better scores in that area, with a grade of A-. In calculating a nursing home's nursing grade, we weigh the quantity of hours nurses are seeing patients as well as the levels of training of those nurses. This facility provides an impressive 4.2 hours of nursing care per resident daily. This is among the highest totals in the country. Lastly, this nursing home was also above average in each of the major quality measures we assessed 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
This facility also was given an impressive long-term care score. Indeed, we gave it an above average score of B in this area. Facilities that do well in long-term care typically are well-staffed and offer extensive hands on care to patients. On top of looking at the amount of care provided by nurses aids and other staff, we analyzed the number of residents vaccinated for pneumonia. This nursing home administered the vaccine to 96.732025 percent of its residents, which is an impressive figure. Pneumonia sadly is often a life or death ailment for nursing home patients so we like it when a nursing home doesn't leave this to chance. Lastly, this nursing home was able to limit hospitalizations. Although it had 1.86 hospitalizations per 1,000 long-term resident days, its risk adjusted statistic was better than most nursing homes due to it having some more complex patients.
Short-term Care Quality
The next area we rated was short-term care, in which we awarded it a favorable grade of B. This nursing home truly does not have any weak links. In the area of short-term care, we strive to assess measures of a nursing home's rehabilitation. We analyze a nursing home's skilled nursing services, such as those performed by registered nurses and physical and occupational therapists. One of this nursing home's strengths is registered nurse hours. We found that it offers more care from registered nurses to its residents than most facilities. Lastly, we looked at the number of patients who were able to return home from this nursing home. It outperformed most facilities in this area with 50.3 percent of its residents returning home. This is a better rate than most facilities.
