Facility Inspections

Grade: A

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 scores is deficiencies. These deficiencies are found on a facility's inspection reports. Places with better scores in this area typically dodged the most severe deficiencies involving things like patient abuse. While this place had some deficiencies on its government inspection report, none were severe based on CMS' scale. We should point out that deficiency-free inspections are rare in the industry.

Long-term Care Quality

Grade: A-minus

Contributing to its impressive profile, this facility also performed well in our long-term care category. In fact, we awarded it a score of A- in the area. For prospective residents seeking a permanent residence rather than skilled nursing, long-term care is an important category. On top of considering the quantity of care provided by nurses aids and other staff, we also looked at the number of residents vaccinated against pneumonia. This nursing home administered the vaccine to 81.14035 percent of its patients. This is slightly less than we anticipated. Clearly, this place is doing something right in this area as it was able to keep its patients out of the hospital. It had only 0.02 hospitalizations per 1,000 long-term resident days, which is a remarkably low number.

Short-term Care Quality

Grade: A-minus

This facility also was awarded a high-end short-term care grade. In fact, this is its third strongest category grade. In that category, we awarded this facility a grade of A-. Our short-term care scores are important for people in need of rehabilitation. Rehabilitation usually utilizes higher levels of skilled nursing. This includes a broad spectrum of nursing services, ranging from registered nurses to physical and speech therapists, as well as other types of therapy. Fortunately, it looks like this nursing home has registered nurses on staff. Not every facility employs these types of nurses. On the other hand, according to the information this nursing home provided, it does not look like the facility employs physical therapists. The last statistic we looked at in this category is the percentage of residents who were able to leave the nursing home and return home. We found that 6 percent of this facility's residents returned home.

Nurse Quality

Grade: C

The last category we analyzed is nursing. This nursing home was awarded an above average nursing score in our assessment, with a grade of C. Although this isn't nearly as strong as a few of its other scores, this is nevertheless a decent grade for that category. Nursing grades are based in large part on levels of nurse staffing. This nursing home averages just 0.4 hours of nursing care per resident per day. This is a very low figure. Lastly, our nursing scores also consider some quality-focused metrics. We like to look at the percent of patients who sustained pressure ulcers and major falls. Sometimes these statistics are decent measures of the quality of nursing care, since superior care can reduce these problems.
