Facility Inspections
One of the reasons this place ended up being a quality nursing home is that it earned an A+ in our inspections category. This is simply as good as it gets in this critical area. Inspection ratings are tied to several items found on the a nursing home's recent inspection reports. Facilities that receive favorable grades in this category have few deficiencies on those reports. Most importantly, these places generally do not have any severe deficiencies which are associated with endangerment of patients. 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. Finally, this facility had no substantiated complaints this year from residents, which is an excellent sign.
Long-term Care Quality
Contributing to its strong profile, this facility also excelled in our long-term care area. In fact, we gave it a score of A for the area. When nursing homes receive this type of score in this category it is a good sign for patient care and indicates that the place is well-staffed with nurses and aids. In addition to providing well above average levels of nursing care and other staffing, this facility gave the pneumonia vaccine to 100 percent of its patients. Vaccines are vital to keeping patients out of the hospital. This combination proved to be successful as this nursing home keeps its residents out of the hospital. In fact, it had less than one hospitalization per 1,000 long-term resident days, which is an impressively low figure.
Nurse Quality
This facility also excelled in the area of nursing, where it received a grade of A. Few nursing homes performed better in this area. Nursing ratings are largely based on a nursing home's level of nurse staffing. This facility provides an incredible 4.6 hours of nursing care per patient each day. Out of this total, many of the hours were provided by registered nurses, which is one of the most highly highly trained levels of nurses. In addition to looking at levels of nursing care, we also looked at a few quality measures in determining our nursing grades. These include minimizing residents' pressure ulcers and major falls. We view these datapoints as reliable measures of the caliber of nursing care offered, since better care tends to reduce these problems.
Short-term Care Quality
Turning to our final area, this facility also excelled in our short-term care category. In fact, we gave it a grade of A- for this category. This completed truly elite profile. In our short-term care grade, we seek to create a fair gauge for rehabilitation services. In this process, we assess the nursing home's level of skilled nursing services, including both registered nurses and physical therapy, as well as respiratory therapy. When we assessed this facility's nursing hours, we found it offered more care from registered nurses than most nursing homes. The last measure we looked at in this area is the percentage of residents who were able to leave the nursing home and return to the community. We discovered that 0 percent of this facility's patients were able to return home.
