Facility Inspections

Grade: A-plus

In addition to being an elite facility overall, this nursing home also excelled in our inspections category, where it received an A+. Very few places fared as well in this category. We weigh several aspects of a nursing home's inspection report in computing these inspection grades. One critical factor is deficiencies. It should be noted that the severity of these deficiencies is usually more meaningful than the quantity of deficiencies, as some deficiencies can be quite insignificant. This place received 2 deficiencies on its inspection report, but fortunately none of the deficiencies were considered to be severe. This means that CMS did not consider any of the deficiencies to create an immediate threat to resident health or safety. A few minor dings aren't something to panic about.

Nurse Quality

Grade: A-plus

We also wanted to emphasize the fact that this facility excelled in our nursing rating. We awarded them an impressive grade of A+ in this category. Nursing grades are heavily correlated with levels of nurse staffing. This facility provided 0.4 hours of nursing care per resident per day. Lastly, we also looked at some nursing quality-based metrics in determining our nursing grades. This place performed very well in the area of avoiding pressure ulcers and major falls. We consider these areas to be good indicators of the quality of nursing care.

Short-term Care Quality

Grade: B-plus

Turning to the third area, this nursing home also earned a score of B+ for its short-term care rating. This is an above average score in this area. Short-term care grades are generally employed to gauge a facility's performance with rehabilitation To offer good rehabilitation services, facilities generally need to offer higher levels of highly skilled nursing services. Skilled nursing includes registered nurses, physical therapists, speech therapists and other licensed professionals. Fortunately, it looks like this nursing home employs registered nurses. Not all facilities employs these types of nurses. On the other hand, according to the information they provided, they do not appear to employ physical therapists. Finally, we assessed the number of residents that were able to return home from this facility. We found that 4.9 percent of this nursing home's patients were able to return home.

Long-term Care Quality

Grade: B

The next area we looked at proved to be this facility's worst area. Nevertheless, even its worst category would be a highlight for most facilities. We gave it an above average grade of B for long-term care. Long-term care grades in this range generally require both 24/7 care from nurses and aids, as well as quality routine healthcare services. On top of looking at the amount of care provided by aids and other staff, we also looked at the percentage of residents vaccinated against pneumonia. This facility gave the vaccine to 96.41943 percent of its patients, which is higher than the majority of nursing homes. Clearly, this place is doing something right in this area as it also excelled at keeping its patients out of the hospital. Indeed, it had only 0.01 hospitalizations per one thousand long-term resident days, which is an impressively low figure.
