Facility Inspections
To go along with its favorable overall grade, we gave this facility an A for the area of inspections. We take several aspects of a facility's inspection report into consideration in calculating our inspection ratings. One key factor is health deficiencies. It should be noted that the severity of the deficiencies is usually more meaningful than the quantity of deficiencies, as some end up being quite insignificant. Although this nursing home had some deficiencies on its government inspection report, none were severe based on CMS' deficiency scale. A couple relatively minor deficiencies are not the end of the world.
Short-term Care Quality
In addition, this nursing home also was awarded favorable short-term care scores this year. In fact, we gave them one of our more favorable scores in that area, with a grade of B+. Short-term care grades are typically employed to assess a facility's performance with rehabilitation. To provide good rehabilitation services, facilities generally must provide better levels of highly skilled nursing services. Skilled nursing includes registered nurses, physical therapists, respiratory therapists and other licensed professionals. Fortunately, it appear that this nursing home employs registered nurses. Not every nursing home employs these skilled professionals. However, based on the information they provided, it does not look like the facility employs physical therapists. Lastly, we considered the number of residents that eventually returned home from this facility. We found that 5.3 percent of this facility's patients were able to return home.

Finally, we also assessed several nursing quality-based metrics and this place 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 nation in this category. This is generally a good indicator of quality nursing care. Pressure ulcers can typically be prevented by offering better nursing care, such as employing a protocol of turning a patient even once per day.
Long-term Care Quality
The last category we rated is long-term care. In that area, we awarded this facility a solid grade of B-. This actually ended up being this nursing home's least impressive category. In computing our long-term care ratings, we size up the personal care offered to the nursing home's patients. After we finished assessing the volume of nursing care, we then analyzed the nursing home's vaccination data. Candidly, we were a bit worried that this facility vaccinated only 67.66169 percent of its patients against pneumonia. Nevertheless, this place excelled at keeping its residents out of the hospital. It had less than one hospitalization per 1,000 long-term resident days, which is a remarkably low number.
