Facility Inspections

Grade: A

In addition to being a strong nursing home overall, this place especially excelled in our inspections category, where it received a grade of A. Not many nursing homes performed better in this area. These inspection grades take several factors into consideration, including deficiencies, substantiated complaints and federal fines. You can find more information about each of these items by obtaining copies of nursing homes' inspection reports. Fortunately, although this facility had some minor dings on its report, it had zero severe deficiencies. Severe deficiencies are ones found in categories G, H, I, J, K and L. This means that CMS didn't deem any of the deficiencies on this facility's report to pose an imminent threat to patient health or safety. Keep in mind that deficiency-free inspection reports are uncommon in this industry.

Short-term Care Quality

Grade: B-plus

In addition, this facility also received favorable short-term care scores this year. In fact, we gave them one of our higher scores in that area, with a score of B+. Our short-term care grades are crucial for people in need of rehabilitation. Rehabilitation usually utilizes more highly-skilled nursing. This includes a vast scope of nursing services, ranging from registered nurses to physical and respiratory therapists, as well as other forms of therapy. It does not look like this nursing home submitted registered nurse or physical therapist staffing data. Finally, we assessed the percentage of patients who who were able to eventually return home from this facility. We found that 6.1 percent of this facility's residents returned home.

Long-term Care Quality

Grade: B-minus

This facility's third best category was long-term care. In that category, we awarded this facility a B-. For prospective residents seeking a permanent place to live rather than skilled nursing, long-term care grades are an important measure. On top of considering the volume of care provided by aids and other staff, we also looked at the percentage of residents vaccinated against pneumonia. Thankfully, this facility provided the vaccine to 98.50746 percent of its patients, which is a very respectable statistic. Lastly, this facility was also able to limit hospitalizations. It had less than one hospitalization per one thousand long-term resident days, which is an impressively low figure.

Nurse Quality

Grade: B-minus

Switching gears to the fourth category, this nursing home received a respectable nursing score. Although this is not quite as impressive as a few of its other scores, this is still not a terrible score. Our nursing score focuses on the facility's nurse staffing levels. We look at both the levels of skill of those nurses and the amount of time spent with residents. This facility provided just 0.4 hours of nursing care per resident per day. This is a relatively low total compared to most other facilities. Finally, nursing scores also factor in quality-based assessments, such as preventing major falls. Despite not having the highest total nursing hours per resident, this place actually performed admirably in the metric of preventing major falls. This is typically a reliable indicator that a nursing home has quality controls in place. Some falls can be avoided if a nursing home provides enough nurses to assist its patients.
