Facility Inspections

Grade: A

In addition to being a quality facility overall, this place especially excelled in the area of inspections, where it earned a grade of A. Few facilities performed better in that category. We weigh several aspects of a nursing home's inspection report in calculating these inspection grades. One critical factor is health deficiencies. It should be noted that the severity of these deficiencies is usually more important than the quantity of deficiencies, as some of these are relatively insignificant. This place received 4 deficiencies on its inspection report, but fortunately none were considered severe. This means that the inspectors didn't consider any of the deficiencies to cause an imminent threat to resident health or safety. A few relatively minor deficiencies are not necessarily something to panic about.

Nurse Quality

Grade: A

This nursing home performed well in our nursing category. In fact, we awarded it a grade of A for that category, which is one of our highest scores. There are a number of factors included in this area. Many of the factors relate to staffing levels. This nursing home provides 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 nursing home performed very well when it comes to minimizing its residents' major falls and pressure ulcers. We consider these areas to be good indicators of the quality of nursing care.

Short-term Care Quality

Grade: B

This nursing home is also strong in the category of short-term care, where it was awarded a score of B. It performed more favorably than most facilities in this category. With our short-term care score, we endeavor to craft a meaningful gauge for rehabilitation. In this process, we assess a nursing home's level of skilled nursing services, including both registered nurses and physical therapy, as well as speech therapy. Fortunately, it appear that this nursing home employs registered nurses. Not all nursing homes employs these types of nurses. However, based on the data this nursing home provided, it does not look like the facility employs physical therapists. Finally, we looked at the number of residents who returned home from this nursing home. We found that 4.1 percent of this nursing home's residents were able to return home.

Long-term Care Quality

Grade: B-minus

The final category we graded was long-term care. We gave this nursing home an acceptable grade in this category, with a B-. While this is not as favorable as several of its other grades, it is nevertheless a middle of the pack score. If you are looking for anything other than short-term rehabilitation, you should take a close look at long-term care scores. One of the criteria we considered on top of nursing hours was vaccines. Thankfully, this facility administered the pneumonia vaccine to 96.98795 percent of its residents. Finally, this facility was also able to limit hospitalizations. Indeed, it had only 0.01 hospitalizations per 1,000 long-term resident days, which is a remarkably low number.
