Facility Inspections

Grade: A

One of the reasons this place is a quality nursing home is that it received an impressive inspection rating. In fact, inspections turned out to be its best category grade. In that category, we gave this facility a grade of A. Our inspection grades are tied to many datapoints located in the a nursing home's recent inspection reports. Facilities that receive favorable grades in this area typically have very few deficiencies on their reports. Most importantly, these places generally do not have any severe deficiencies which are associated with endangerment of patients. While this place had some minor dings on its report, it had no severe deficiencies. Severe deficiencies are ones found in categories G, H, I, J, K and L. This tells you that the government inspectors did not consider any of the deficiencies on this facility's report to pose an imminent threat to patient health or safety. The fact that none of the deficiencies were severe made us feel better about this inspection report.

Nurse Quality

Grade: A-minus

One of the other reasons we rated this facility so highly is that it earned a very impressive nursing grade. This proved to be its second best category grade. In that category, we awarded this nursing home an A-. Nursing scores are based largely on levels of nurse staffing. This nursing home averages 0.9 hours of nursing care per resident per day. Finally, we also assessed several nursing quality-based metrics and this facility excelled in some of these areas. With less than five percent of its residents sustaining pressure ulcers, it performed as well as any facility the state in this category. This is generally a good indicator of quality nursing care. Pressure ulcers can many times be avoided by providing better nursing care, such as by having a system of turning a patient even once per day.

Long-term Care Quality

Grade: B-plus

Additionally, this nursing home also received favorable long-term care scores in our assessment. Indeed, we awarded them one of our stronger scores in that category, with a score of B+. Facilities that receive this kind of score in this category tend to provide consistent around the clock care to ensure patients are kept in good health. Once we assessed the quantity of care provided by nurses and other staff, we next considered the facility's vaccination statistics. This nursing home vaccinated 91.111115 percent of its residents for pneumonia, which is a bit less than we anticipated but still a respectable percentage. Clearly, this facility is doing something right in this area as it was able to keep its patients out of the hospital. Indeed, it had only 0 hospitalizations per 1,000 long-term resident days, which is a remarkably low figure.

Short-term Care Quality

Grade: C

Moving on to our final category, this facility was given a respectable short-term care grade. Even though this wasn't nearly as elite as a few of its other scores, this is still not a terrible score. In determining our short-term care scores, we size up the facility's levels of highly skilled nursing services, which includes registered nurses, physical therapists respiratory therapists and other licensed professionals. This rating is often a meaningful measure of the facility's ability to rehabilitate patients. Fortunately, it looks like this facility employs registered nurses. Not every facility employs these skilled professionals. However, according to the information this nursing home provided, it does not look like the facility employs physical therapists. Finally, we looked at the percentage of patients who were able to return home from this facility. We found that 0 percent of this facility's residents were able to return home. This figure was quite a bit below average.
