Facility Inspections

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 grades account for a host of factors found on a nursing home's inspection reports. One key criteria we consider is the quantity and severity of deficiencies. Places with higher grades in this category typically have few of these severe deficiencies. This facility was hit with 3 deficiencies on its inspection report, but we were relieved to see that none were considered severe. This tells you that CMS did not consider any of these deficiencies to be an immediate threat to patient safety or health. Finally, this facility had no substantiated complaints this year from residents, which is an excellent sign.

Short-term Care Quality

Adding to its top-shelf assessments in other areas, we awarded this facility a grade of A for our short-term care rating. In our short-term care rating, we attempt to create a fair measure for rehabilitation services. In this process, we look at the facility's offerings of skilled nursing services, including both registered nurses and physical therapy, as well as speech therapy. Fortunately, it appear that this facility employs registered nurses. Not every nursing home employs these skilled professionals. On the other hand, based on the information this nursing home provided, they do not appear to employ physical therapists. Finally, we assessed the percentage of residents who were able to return to the community from this nursing home, which as an area this facility performed much more favorably. This place outperformed the vast majority of facilities in the nation in this area with 67.8 percent of its residents returning home. This is a significantly higher rate than most nursing homes.
