Facility Inspections
One of the reasons this turned out to be a strong nursing home is that it received a very impressive inspection rating. Inspections is its best category grade. In that area, we awarded this facility an A. Arguably the most important factor we consider in calculating our inspection scores is deficiencies. These deficiencies can be found on a nursing home's recent inspection reports. Nursing homes with higher scores in this category most likely avoided the more severe deficiencies involving things like patient abuse. While this facility had a few deficiencies on its report, none of them were severe based on CMS' scale. A few relatively minor dings are not necessarily something to panic about.
Short-term Care Quality
Among this facility's other strengths is its dominant short-term care grade. We gave them one of our strongest grades in that category, with a score of A-. Short-term care ratings are based on a nursing home's quantity of skilled nursing services. This means a broad range of nursing services, ranging from registered nurses to physical and occupational therapists, as well as other variations of therapy. Fortunately, it looks like this nursing home has registered nurses on staff. Not every facility employs these skilled professionals. On the other hand, based on the information they provided, they do not appear to employ physical therapists. Finally, we looked at the number of patients who ultimately returned home from this nursing home. This facility performed better in this area than in its staffing levels. This place performed as well as just about any nursing home in the nation with 65.8 percent of its residents returning home.
Nurse Quality
This facility's next best category grade came in the area of nursing. In that category, we gave this nursing home a grade of B-. This wasn't quite on par with some of its other category grades mentioned above. There are a host of subcategories within this category. Most of these factors reflect staffing levels. This facility provided 4.4 hours of nursing care per patient daily. This is an impressive figure. Finally, our nursing grades also weigh quality-based metrics, such as avoiding major falls. This nursing home performed better than average in this area.
Long-term Care Quality
Turning to the next category, this nursing home was given an acceptable long-term care score of C. In determining our long-term care ratings, we scrutinize the assistance with daily living offered to the nursing home's residents. On top of looking at the impressive level of care provided by nurses and other staff at this nursing home, we also were pleased by the facility's record for vaccinations. By way of example, this nursing home gave the pneumonia vaccine to 97.945206 percent of its residents, which is very respectable. Lastly, we looked at the nursing home's number of hospitalizations. While it had 2.36 hospitalizations per 1,000 long-term resident days, its risk adjusted statistic was not too bad.
