Facility Inspections

Grade: A-minus

The main reason this nursing home received a decent overall grade is its impeccable government inspections in recent years. We gave them one of our higher grades in that category, with an A-. This is a much better grade than the place's overall grade, which was decent but not in the elite range. Perhaps the most important factor we look at in calculating our inspection grades is deficiencies. These deficiencies can be found on a facility's recent inspection reports. Nursing homes with better scores in this area most likely avoided the most severe deficiencies involving things like patient abuse. While this place had a few deficiencies on its inspection report, none of them were major deficiencies based on CMS' scale. A couple minor dings are not necessarily something to panic about.

Short-term Care Quality

Grade: B-plus

This nursing home also was awarded an impressive short-term care grade. As a matter of fact, we gave it a grade of B+ in that category, which happens to be one of our more favorable scores. In computing our short-term care scores, we analyze a facility's levels of skilled nursing services, which includes registered nurses, physical therapists occupational therapists and other highly trained professionals. This category is considered to be a solid measure of a nursing home's rehabilitation. Fortunately, it looks like this nursing home has registered nurses on staff. Not every facility employs these types of nurses. On the other hand, according to the information this nursing home provided, they do not appear to employ physical therapists. The last item we considered in this area is the percentage of patients who who were able to eventually return home from the nursing home. We found that 5.8 percent of this nursing home's residents returned home as opposed to remaining at the nursing home on a permanent basis.

Nurse Quality

Grade: B-minus

Next, we looked at the nursing category where we awarded this nursing home a grade of B-, which is a decent grade. When calculating a facility's nursing rating, we look at the quantity of hours nurses are seeing residents as well as the skill levels of the nurses. This facility provided just 0.3 hours of nursing care per resident per day. This is a relatively low total compared to most other facilities. Lastly, while this place got docked a bit for nursing hours, it excelled in a few of our quality-based metrics. With less than five percent of its residents experiencing pressure ulcers, it fared remarkably well in this statistic.

Long-term Care Quality

Grade: C

The final area we analyzed was long-term care. For this category, we awarded this facility a grade of C. For patients in need of a permanent place to live as opposed to skilled nursing, long-term care grades are an important measure. After considering the quantity of care provided by aids and other staff, we then looked at the nursing home's vaccination statistics. This facility vaccinated 99.666664 percent of its residents for pneumonia, which is better than the vast majority of nursing homes. Lastly, this facility was also able to limit hospitalizations. Indeed, it had less than one hospitalization per 1,000 long-term resident days, which is a remarkably low figure.
