Facility Inspections

Grade: A-plus

The primary reason this nursing home received a decent overall grade is its excellent inspections in recent years. We gave it one of our higher grades in that area, with an A+. This is a much better score than the place's overall grade, which was decent but certainly not elite. We weigh several aspects of a nursing home's inspection report in calculating these inspection ratings. One key factor is deficiencies. You should keep in mind that the severity of the deficiencies is arguably more important than the quantity of deficiencies, as some deficiencies end up being relatively insignificant. This particular nursing home had just a single deficiency on its inspection report and it was not one deemed to pose a threat to patient health or safety. Finally, this facility had no substantiated complaints this year from residents, which is an excellent sign.

Long-term Care Quality

Grade: A-minus

Turning to another strength for this nursing home, we awarded it a first-rate long-term care score. In fact, we awarded this nursing home a grade of A-. When nursing homes receive this kind of grade in long-term care it is usually a good sign for resident care and indicates that the nursing home is well-staffed with nurses and aids. One of the datapoints we considered after nursing hours was vaccinations. This facility provided the pneumonia vaccine to 99.66443 percent of its patients. This is a proven method to avoid unnecessary deaths for the senior population. Lastly, this nursing home was able to limit hospitalizations. It had only 0.01 hospitalizations per one thousand long-term resident days, which is a remarkably low figure.

Nurse Quality

Grade: D

Another strength of this nursing home is its favorable grade in nursing. We awarded them one of our better scores in that area, with an impressive grade of D. Our nursing grade features numerous factors. The most heavily weighted factor is the amount of time nurses spend with patients. This facility offered only 0.3 hours of nursing care per patient per day. This is a very low total compared to most nursing homes. Finally, we also assessed some nursing quality measures in calculating our nursing scores. This facility performed well in the area of minimizing its residents' pressure ulcers and major falls.

Short-term Care Quality

Grade: D

The last area we graded was short-term care, which turned out to be this nursing home's worst area. We awarded this nursing home a D in that area. Sadly, this category hurt the nursing home's overall profile to some degree. Our short-term care grades are probably most meaningful for those requiring a nursing home for rehabilitation. Rehabilitation typically utilizes more highly-skilled nursing services. Skilled nursing includes not just nursing services, but also physical and occupational therapy, as well as other types of therapy. In this place's case, it looks like it provided less registered nurse and physical therapist hours per patient than a typical facility. The final datapoint we considered in this area is the number of residents that ultimately were able to return home from the facility. This facility struggled quite a bit in this area as well, with just 4.5 percent of its patients returning home.
