Long-term Care Quality
On top of performing well in its overall score, this facility earned even higher grades in long-term care. In fact, it received one of our best scores in that category with an A. Long-term care scores of this caliber generally require both around the clock care from nurses and aids, as well as quality routine medical care. One of the factors we considered in addition to nursing hours is vaccinations. This nursing home administered the pneumonia vaccine to 100 percent of its patients. Vaccination is a reliable method to minimize unnecessary hospitalizations for the nursing home population. Clearly, this place is doing something right in this area as it also excelled at keeping its patients out of the hospital. In fact, it had less than one hospitalization per one thousand long-term resident days, which is a remarkably low number.

This nursing home also excelled in the area of inspections. In fact, we gave it a grade of A for that category, which is one of our highest scores. This is one of the few facilities with an overall grade in this range which earned multiple category grades this high. Our inspection grades are based on many pieces of information located in the a nursing home's inspection reports. Nursing homes that receive favorable grades in this area tend to have very few deficiencies on those reports. Most importantly, these places should not have any severe deficiencies which are associated with endangerment of patients. While this facility had some minor dings on its report, it had zero severe deficiencies. Severe deficiencies are ones labeled as categories G, H, I, J, K and L. This tells you the government inspectors didn't consider any of the deficiencies on this facility's report to pose an imminent threat to patient health or safety.
