Our inspection ratings are tied to several pieces of information located in the a nursing home's recent inspection reports. Facilities that excel in this category have very few deficiencies on those reports. Most importantly, these nursing homes should not have any severe deficiencies which are associated with endangerment of patients. It does not appear that we have deficiency counts for this nursing home. Finally, this facility had no substantiated complaints this year from residents, which is an excellent sign.

Long-term Care Quality

Grade: A

Adding to its high-end assessment, this facility also was awarded a dominant long-term care grade, with a score of A. Nursing homes that excel in long-term care typically provide residents with closer supervision and stay on top of routine medical care. After looking at the amount of care provided by aids and other staff, we next considered the nursing home's vaccination data. This facility vaccinated 98.80597 percent of its residents against pneumonia, which is much higher than the average nursing home. Clearly, this place is doing something right in this area as it also excelled at keeping its residents out of the hospital. Indeed, it had less than one hospitalization per 1,000 long-term resident days, which is an impressively low figure.

Short-term Care Quality

Grade: A-minus

This facility also was dominant in the category of short-term care, where it received a grade of A-. Only a select group of nursing homes fared better in this category. In computing our short-term care ratings, we quantify the facility's skilled nursing services, such as those performed by registered nurses, occupational therapists, physical therapists and other types of skilled professionals. Our objective is to devise a measure for comparing the rehabilitation services of various nursing homes. It does not appear that this nursing home provided data regarding its registered nurse or physical therapy staffing. The final measure we looked at in this category is the percentage of patients that were able to return home from the facility. We found that 5.5 percent of this nursing home's residents returned home as opposed to remaining at the nursing home on a permanent basis.

Nurse Quality

Grade: B

Moving on to our fourth area, this facility was given an excellent nursing grade. Although this isn't nearly as good as many of its other scores, this remains one of the more favorable grades we offer. The nursing score weighs several subcategories. The most heavily weighted factor is the quantity of hours nurses spent with patients. This nursing home averages 0.4 hours of nursing care per resident per day. Finally, our nursing grades also factor in quality-based assessments, such as avoiding major falls. This facility performed well in this area. Avoiding major falls is typically a good indicator that a nursing home has reliable quality controls in place. Major falls can frequently be avoided if more nurses aids and better safety protocols are in place.
