Long-term Care Quality

Grade: B-plus

We gave this nursing home a solid grade in our long-term care rating, where it received a B+. Long-term care scores of this caliber generally require both 24/7 care from nurses and aids, as well as quality routine healthcare services. One of the datapoints we considered on top of nurse's aid hours was vaccines. This facility provided the pneumonia vaccination to 65.06024 percent of its patients. Clearly, this facility is doing something right in this area as it was able to keep its patients out of the hospital. In fact, it had less than one hospitalization per one thousand long-term resident days, which is a remarkably low figure.

Facility Inspections

Grade: B-plus

In addition, this nursing home also excelled in inspections, where it earned an B+. Few nursing homes performed as well in this category. Our inspection ratings are based on several datapoints located in the a nursing home's inspection reports. Facilities that receive favorable grades in this area typically have few deficiencies on those reports. Most importantly, these places generally do not have any severe deficiencies which are associated with risks to patient safety. Fortunately, although this place had some minor dings on its government inspection report, it had no severe deficiencies. Severe deficiencies are ones labeled as categories G through L. This tells you that the government inspectors didn't consider any of the deficiencies on this facility's report to pose an imminent threat to patient health or safety. Finally, this facility had no substantiated complaints this year from residents, which is an excellent sign.

Nurse Quality

Grade: B-minus

This facility's next best category grade came in the area of nursing. In that category, we gave this nursing home a grade of B-. When computing our nursing grades, we weigh both staffing levels and the levels of licensure of those 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. Despite having low quantities of nursing care, this nursing home actually excelled in some of the quality measures we looked at. In fact, it performed well when it comes to minimizing its residents' pressure ulcers and major falls.

Short-term Care Quality

Grade: D

The next category we rated was short-term care, was this nursing home's least impressive category. We awarded this nursing home a D in that area. This really was one of just a couple of weak points in a strong profile. In the category of short-term care, we strive to evaluate measures of a facility's rehabilitation services. We assess the nursing home's skilled nursing services, including those performed by registered nurses and physical therapists. It looks like this facility was subpar in the two key staffing areas we assessed. The facility offered fewer registered nurse and physical therapist hours per resident than most facilities. Lastly, we looked at the number of patients who were able to return to the community from this facility. We found that just 3.1 percent of this facility's residents returned home.
