Facility Inspections

Grade: A-plus

One of the many reasons this turned out to be a quality nursing home is that it received an A+ inspection grade. This is simply as good as it gets in this critical category. Inspection scores are based on several items located in the a nursing home's recent inspection reports. Places that score well in this area typically have few deficiencies on their reports. Most importantly, these places generally do not have any severe deficiencies which are associated with endangerment of patients. While this nursing home had a few deficiencies on its inspection report, none were major deficiencies based on CMS' deficiency scale. We should point out that deficiency-free inspections are uncommon in this industry.

Long-term Care Quality

Grade: B-plus

This nursing home is also strong in the category of long-term care, where it was given a score of B+. It performed more favorably than most nursing homes in this area. Nursing homes that excel in this category typically provide residents with better supervision and stay on top of routine medical care. After considering the amount of care provided by nurses aids and other staff, we next considered the facility's vaccination statistics. This facility vaccinated 100 percent of its patients for pneumonia. Vaccines are critical to keeping patients out of the hospital. Lastly, this place was able to limit hospitalizations. In fact, it had less than one hospitalization per 1,000 long-term resident days, which is a remarkably low figure.

Short-term Care Quality

Grade: B

Additionally, this nursing home also was given favorable short-term care grades this year. In fact, we gave them one of our higher grades in that area, with a grade of B. With our short-term care category, we strive to create a valuable measure for rehabilitation. In this process, we analyze a facility's levels of skilled nursing services, including both registered nurses and physical therapy, as well as occupational therapy. Fortunately, it appear that this facility employs registered nurses. Not all nursing homes employs these types of nurses. On the other hand, based on the information this nursing home provided, they do not appear to employ physical therapists. The final statistic we considered in this category is the percentage of residents who ultimately were able to return home from the facility. We found that 6 percent of this nursing home's patients returned home as opposed to remaining at the facility on a permanent basis.

Nurse Quality

Grade: B-minus

The last category we analyzed was nursing. This facility was given an above average nursing score this year, with a grade of B-. While this wasn't nearly as elite as many of its other category grades, this is still an acceptable score in that area. Our nursing score is primarily based on the facility's level of nurse staffing. This particular nursing home provided just 0.4 hours of nursing care per patient per day. This figure is significantly below average. Lastly, although this place got dinged a bit for nursing hours, it excelled in a few of our quality-based measures. With less than five percent of its patients suffering from pressure ulcers, it did well in this area.
