Historical

In addition to being a great overall grade, this facility also received A+ health inspections in recent years. Its inspections were virtually flawless. Inspection grades weigh several factors found on a nursing home's inspection report. One key criteria we consider is the number and severity of deficiencies. Nursing homes with higher scores in this area generally have very few of these severe deficiencies. Unfortunately, it does not look like we have information on deficiency's for this nursing home. Finally, this facility had no substantiated complaints this year from residents, which is an excellent sign.

Historical

One of the other reasons we rated this facility so highly is that it received a very impressive nursing score. This turned out to be its second best category grade. In that area, we awarded this facility an A+. We looked at the qualifications of nurses working for the nursing home, in addition to the quantity of time those nurses were with residents, in calculating our score in this area. This particular facility provided 7.7 hours of nursing care per patient each day. This was one of the highest figures we found. In addition, we found that a significant portion of this care was provided by registered nurses, which are highly skilled nurses. These are both really impressive figures. On top of offering impressive levels of nursing care, this place also excelled in several of the quality measures we assessed. With below 5 percent of its residents suffering from pressure ulcers, it performed as well as any nursing home Vermont in this category.

Historical

An additional strength for this nursing home is long-term care, where it was awarded an A+ rating. This is just about as elite as it gets in this category. When facilities receive this kind of grade in this category it is a good sign for patient care and indicates that the facility is well-staffed with nurses and aids. After considering the significant amount of nursing hours and other staffing provided by this nursing home, we next considered the facility's vaccination data. This nursing home vaccinated 100 percent of its patients for pneumonia, which is significantly higher than the majority of nursing homes. This combination proved to be effective as this place was able to keep its residents out of the hospital. It had less than one hospitalization per 1,000 long-term resident days, which is an impressively low figure.

Historical

Turning to the next area, this facility received an extremely favorable short-term care score. We awarded it a grade of A in this area, giving this facility straight A's. With our short-term care assessment, we seek to forge a meaningful gauge for rehabilitation services. In doing so, we analyze a facility's scope of skilled nursing services, including both registered nurses and physical therapy, as well as occupational therapy. When we assessed this facility's nursing hours, we found it offered substantially more care from registered nurses than most nursing homes. The final item we assessed in this area is the percentage of residents who eventually returned home from the nursing home. We found that 0 percent of this nursing home's residents returned home as opposed to remaining at the facility permanently.
