Facility Inspections

Grade: A-plus

In addition to being an elite nursing home overall, this nursing home excelled in our inspections category, where it earned an A+. Very few facilities fared this well in this category. Inspection scores are based on datapoints located in the a nursing home's recent inspection reports. Nursing homes that excel in this category typically have few deficiencies on those reports. Most importantly, these places should not have any severe deficiencies which are associated with endangerment of patients. This nursing home was assessed 5 deficiencies on its inspection report, but fortunately none were considered to be major deficiencies. This means that the government inspectors did not deem any of the deficiencies an imminent threat to patient health or safety. Finally, this facility had no substantiated complaints this year from residents, which is an excellent sign.

Long-term Care Quality

Grade: B-plus

This nursing home also received a favorable long-term care grade. Indeed, we awarded it an above average grade of B+ in this category. Facilities that do well in this category tend to provide patients with more supervision and stay on top of routine healthcare services. Once we assessed the quantity of care provided by nurses, we turned to the nursing home's vaccination records. This facility vaccinated 99.082565 percent of its patients for pneumonia, which is very impressive. Pneumonia can be a dangerous condition for nursing home patients so we prefer when a facility doesn't take any chances. Lastly, this nursing home was able to limit hospitalizations. In fact, it had less than one hospitalization per one thousand long-term resident days, which is an impressively low figure.

Short-term Care Quality

Grade: B-plus

In addition, this nursing home also was given favorable short-term care grades this year. In fact, we awarded them one of our more favorable scores in that category, with a grade of B+. In computing our short-term care scores, we scrutinize the facility's levels of highly skilled nursing services, which includes registered nurses, physical therapists occupational therapists and other highly skilled individuals. This grade is considered to be a useful measure of the nursing home's rehabilitation. Fortunately, it appear that this facility has registered nurses on staff. Not every nursing home employs these types of nurses. On the other hand, based on the information they provided, it does not look like the facility employs physical therapists. The last datapoint we looked at in this category is the percentage of residents who returned home from the nursing home. We found that 5.5 percent of this nursing home's residents returned home as opposed to remaining at the facility on a permanent basis.

Nurse Quality

Grade: B-minus

Turning to the final category, this nursing home was given a decent nursing grade. Even though this isn't nearly as good as a few of its other scores, this is really not a poor grade. Our nursing rating is based on many data points, most of which are tied to levels of nurse staffing. This facility averages 0.3 hours of nursing care per patient per day, which is a very low figure. Finally, our nursing ratings also consider quality-based measures, such as preventing major falls. Despite not having the most impressive total nursing hours, this place actually performed admirably in the area of preventing major falls. This is often a reliable indicator that a facility has quality controls in place. Many falls could be avoided if a nursing home provides enough nurses aids to assist its residents.
