Registered Staff Hours
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 ratings take several factors into consideration, including deficiencies, substantiated complaints and federal fines. You can find more information about each of these issues by obtaining copies of nursing homes' inspection reports. While this nursing home had some deficiencies on its inspection report, none of them were serious based on CMS' scale. Finally, this facility had no substantiated complaints this year from residents, which is an excellent sign.
Long-term Care Quality
We also gave this nursing home a grade of A+ for its long-term care grade. Facilities that do well in long-term care tend to be well-staffed and provide extensive hands on care to residents. On top of considering the quantity of care provided by nurses aids and other staff, we also looked at the number of residents vaccinated for pneumonia. This facility gave the vaccine to 100 percent of its patients, which is an impressive figure. Pneumonia is often a dangerous illness for nursing home residents so we strongly prefer when a nursing home does not take any chances. Finally, 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 a remarkably low number.

Short-term Care Quality
This facility is also above average in the area of short-term care, where it was given a score of B. It outpaced most facilities in this category. Our short-term care ratings are based in part on a facility's quantity of skilled skilled healthcare professionals. This means a vast range of services, spanning from registered nurses to physical and respiratory therapists, not to mention other variations of therapy. Fortunately, it appear that this facility has registered nurses on staff. Not every nursing home employs these skilled professionals. However, according to the data this nursing home provided, it does not look like the facility employs physical therapists. Lastly, we assessed the percentage of patients who were able to return home from this nursing home. We found that 4.8 percent of this facility's patients were able to return home.
Nurse Quality
The next area we scored is nursing. In that category, we awarded this facility a solid grade of B-. This actually proved to be this facility's weakest category. In determining a facility's nursing score, we consider the quantity of hours nurses are seeing patients as well as the skill levels of the nurses. This nursing home provides 0.4 hours of nursing care per resident per day. This is a much lower figure than we are used to seeing. Finally, we like to look at quality-based metrics, such as the percent of residents who suffered pressure ulcers and major falls. Sometimes these statistics are measures of the quality of nursing care.
