Registered Staff Hours
Facility Inspections
We also wanted to point out the fact that this nursing home has received near flawless inspections in recent years. We gave them an impressive grade of A+ in this category. Our inspection scores account for a host of factors found on a nursing home's inspection report. One key criteria we look at is the number and severity of deficiencies. Facilities with higher scores in this area tend to have very few severe deficiencies. We were not able to locate deficiency data for this facility. Finally, this facility had no substantiated complaints this year from residents, which is an excellent sign.
Long-term Care Quality
We also awarded this nursing home a grade of A for our long-term care grade. Facilities that do well in long-term care tend to provide residents with closer supervision and stay on top of routine healthcare services. In addition to considering the amount of care provided by aids and other staff, we analyzed the percentage of residents vaccinated for pneumonia. This nursing home vaccinated 99.082565 percent of its patients, which is very impressive. Pneumonia is often a life or death condition for nursing home patients so we prefer when a facility doesn't leave this to chance. Lastly, this facility was able to limit hospitalizations. It had only 0.05 hospitalizations per one thousand long-term resident days, which is a remarkably low figure.

Short-term Care Quality
This nursing home was given its third highest category score in the area of short-term care. We gave this nursing home a grade of B- in this category, which is a decent grade. Our short-term care ratings are probably more meaningful for patients in need of a nursing home for rehabilitation. Rehabilitation usually utilizes additional highly-skilled nursing services. This includes not merely nursing, but also physical and respiratory therapy, as well as other variations of therapy. Fortunately, it looks like this nursing home has registered nurses on staff. Not every facility employs these types of nurses. However, based on the information this nursing home provided, they do not appear to employ physical therapists. Lastly, we looked at the percentage of patients that ultimately were able to return home from this nursing home. We found that 4.4 percent of this facility's residents were able to return home. This figure was quite a bit below average.
Nurse Quality
This nursing home's weakest area is nursing, which is the final category we looked at. For this area, we gave this facility a D. We would like to to point out this potential weak link, however, you shouldn't dwell on a single weak category either. The nursing score is based on quite a few data points, however, the most important consideration is the number of nurse hours per patient per week. This facility averaged a meager 0.4 hours of nursing care per resident on a daily basis. This is well below average. Unfortunately, this place also didn't perform as well as we had hoped in some of the quality-based metrics we looked at for this category.
