Facility Inspections
On top of receiving an elite overall score, this facility received an A+ inspection score. This is based on the facility's recent inspection reports. An A+ in this area is one of the best complements we can pay to a facility. Inspection grades account for several factors included in a nursing home's inspection reports. One key criteria we rely on is the quantity and severity of deficiencies. Nursing homes with better scores in this area typically have few severe deficiencies. This nursing home was assessed 4 deficiencies on its inspection report, but fortunately none were considered to be major deficiencies. This tells you that the government inspectors did not deem any of these deficiencies an imminent threat to patient safety or health. A few minor dings are not the end of the world.
Short-term Care Quality
Adding to its strong profile, this nursing home also performed well in our short-term care area. In fact, we awarded it a score of A- for that category. Our short-term care ratings are important for prospective residents in need of rehabilitation. Rehabilitation generally utilizes additional highly-skilled nursing. Skilled nursing means a wide spectrum of services, spanning from registered nurses to physical and occupational therapists, as well as other variations of therapy. One of this nursing home's strengths is registered nurse hours. We found that it offers more care from registered nurses to its residents than most facilities. The last item we assessed in this category is the number of residents that returned home from the facility. We found that it performed better than most facilities in this area with 54.4 percent of its residents returning home. For most nursing homes, less than half of their short-term residents are able to return home.
Nurse Quality
In addition, this facility also received favorable nursing grades this year. In fact, we awarded them one of our better scores in that area, with a grade of B+. Nursing ratings are based largely on levels of nurse staffing. This nursing home provides an incredible 4.6 hours of nursing care per patient on a daily basis. Out of this total, many of the hours were provided by registered nurses, which is one of the most highly trained levels of nurses. In addition to looking at levels of nursing care, we also looked at a few quality measures in determining our nursing grades. These include minimizing residents' pressure ulcers and major falls. We view these areas as predictive measures of the quality of nursing care offered, since better care tends to reduce these problems.
Long-term Care Quality
The final area we scored was long-term care. In this area, we awarded this facility a favorable grade of B. Nursing homes that excel in this category tend to provide residents with more supervision and stay on top of routine healthcare services. On top of offering well above average levels of nurse staffing, this facility provided the pneumonia vaccine to 100 percent of its patients. This statistic is also much better than the average nursing home. This combination proved to be successful as this facility keeps its residents out of the hospital. It had just 1.15 hospitalizations per one thousand long-term resident days, which is a much better hospitalization rate than the average nursing home.
