Facility Inspections

Grade: A-plus

In addition to receiving a strong overall score, this nursing home received an A+ inspection score. This is based on its recent government inspections. An A+ in this area is one of the best complements we can offer a nursing home. Inspection scores account for a host of factors found on a nursing home's inspection report. One of the most important criteria we consider is the quantity and severity of deficiencies. Nursing homes with better scores in this area usually have very few severe deficiencies. Although this nursing home had a few deficiencies on its government inspection report, none were major deficiencies based on CMS' deficiency scale. Finally, this facility had no substantiated complaints this year from residents, which is an excellent sign.

Short-term Care Quality

Grade: A-plus

An additional reason we rated this facility so highly is that it was awarded an A+ short-term care score. This is just about as good as it gets in this area. Short-term care ratings are vital for patients needing rehabilitation. Rehabilitation generally mandates higher levels of skilled nursing. Skilled nursing includes a vast scope of nursing services, ranging from registered nurses to physical and speech therapists, as well as other variations of therapy. Fortunately, it looks like this facility employs registered nurses. Not all facilities employs these types of nurses. However, according to the data they provided, it does not look like the facility employs physical therapists. The last item we looked at in this area is the percentage of patients who ultimately returned home from the nursing home. We found that 6.3 percent of this nursing home's residents returned home as opposed to remaining at the nursing home on a permanent basis.

Long-term Care Quality

Grade: A

This facility also was awarded a very impressive long-term care score. This actually is this nursing home's third strongest category score. In that category, this facility received a grade of A. Nursing homes that receive this type of grade in this category tend to provide consistent around the clock care to make sure patients are well cared for. On top of looking at the amount of care provided by nurses and other staff, we analyzed the number of residents vaccinated for pneumonia. This nursing home gave the vaccine to 100 percent of its patients, which is far higher than the average nursing home. Finally, this nursing home was able to limit hospitalizations. Indeed, it had only 0.01 hospitalizations per 1,000 long-term resident days, which is a remarkably low number.

Nurse Quality

Grade: A

The final area we rated was nursing, where this nursing home was awarded an A. This finished off an elite report card. Few facilities received an A- or higher in all four categories. When computing our nursing scores, we weigh both nursing hours and the training levels of those nurses. This nursing home provides 0.5 hours of nursing care per resident per day. Finally, we also looked at some quality-based measures in this category. This nursing home fared well in some of the quality measures we assessed. For example, in terms of the percentage of its patients suffering from pressure ulcers, this facility performed better than the national average. This is generally an indicator that a place has reliable quality controls in place. Pressure ulcers can often be prevented with better nursing care.
