Nurse Quality

Grade: A-minus

We gave this nursing home one of our better scores in nursing, with an A-. This is a notably better grade than the facility's overall score, which was decent but not in the elite range. There are quite a few criteria included in this area. Many of these criteria reflect the quantity and quality of nurse staffing. This particular nursing home provided 0.3 hours of nursing care per resident per day. Lastly, we also looked at some nursing quality measures in determining our nursing grades. This facility performed very well when it comes to avoiding major falls and pressure ulcers. We consider these areas to be good indicators of the quality of nursing care.

Short-term Care Quality

Grade: A-minus

This nursing home also fared well in the area of short-term care. For this reason, we awarded it a grade of A- in that area, which is one of our highest scores. Short-term care grades are commonly used to assess a nursing home's performance with rehabilitation. In order to provide highly graded rehabilitation services, facilities generally need to offer better levels of skilled nursing services. These types of services include registered nurses, physical therapists, respiratory therapists and other highly trained professionals. Fortunately, it looks like this nursing home has registered nurses on staff. Not every facility employs these skilled professionals. However, based on the information this nursing home provided, it does not look like the facility employs physical therapists. The last metric we assessed in this area is the percentage of residents that ultimately returned home from the nursing home. We found that 5.4 percent of this nursing home's residents returned home as opposed to remaining at the nursing home on a permanent basis.

Facility Inspections

Grade: B-minus

This nursing home earned a good score in the area of inspections as well. In fact, we awarded it a B- for that category, which is one of our better scores. Inspection grades are based on several items located in the a nursing home's recent inspection reports. Deficiencies are an important thing to look for on these reports. Severe deficiencies indicate a threat to the well being of residents. This nursing home received 4 deficiencies on its inspection report, but we were relieved to see that none of the deficiencies were considered to be severe deficiencies. This means that CMS did not deem any of these deficiencies an immediate threat to resident safety or health. A few relatively minor dings are not necessarily something to panic about.

Long-term Care Quality

Grade: D

The final category we scored was long-term care, which proved to be this facility's least impressive category. We awarded this facility a D in this area. Sadly, this category hurt the facility's overall grade to a certain degree. For residents seeking a permanent residence rather than rehabilitation, long-term care grades are a key measure. After we finished assessing the amount of care provided by nurses, we then analyzed the facility's vaccination statistics. We were pleased to discover that this facility vaccinated 98.445595 percent of its residents against pneumonia. To our surprise, this place also fared well at keeping its residents out of the hospital. In fact, it had only 0.02 hospitalizations per one thousand long-term resident days. Unfortunately, some of its other scores in the category were not as favorable as these.
