Facility Inspections

Grade: A

To go along with its strong overall grade, we awarded this nursing home a grade of A for our inspections rating. Inspection grades are based on items located in the a nursing home's recent inspection reports. Nursing homes that excel in this area typically have very few deficiencies on those reports. Most importantly, these nursing homes generally do not have any severe deficiencies which are associated with endangerment of patients. While this facility had a few deficiencies on its inspection report, none were major deficiencies based on CMS' deficiency scale. A few relatively minor dings aren't something to panic about.

Short-term Care Quality

Grade: B-plus

Adding to its profile, this nursing home also received a score of B+ for its short-term care rating. This is an above average grade in this area. In calculating our short-term care ratings, we assess the nursing home's levels of skilled nursing services, which includes registered nurses, physical therapists respiratory therapists and other highly trained professionals. This rating is frequently a useful measure of the facility's rehabilitation services. We were not able to track down registered nurse or physical therapy staffing data for this facility. The final statistic we assessed in this category is the percentage of patients that ultimately returned home from the nursing home. We found that 5.9 percent of this nursing home's patients returned home as opposed to remaining at the nursing home on a permanent basis.

Nurse Quality

Grade: B-minus

This facility's next best category was its nursing grade, where it received a grade of B-. While this didn't quite match its scores in some of the categories discussed above, this is still a decent score. The nursing grade consists of many subcategories, but the primary one is the quantity of nurse hours spent with patients. 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, we also looked at several nursing quality measures. While this nursing home got dinged a bit for its nursing hours per resident, it actually excelled in some of these quality-based measures. With less than five percent of its patients suffering from pressure ulcers, it did well in this statistic. This is typically an indicator of quality nursing care. Pressure ulcers can generally be avoided by offering better nursing care, such as by having a policy of turning a patient even once per day.

Long-term Care Quality

Grade: C

The last area we assessed was long-term care. We gave this nursing home a C in that category. Long-term care grades assess a facility's assistance with daily living rather than the highly skilled nursing or healthcare services that are critical to a rehabilitation facility. In addition to assessing the amount of care provided by aids and other staff, we analyzed the number of residents vaccinated for pneumonia. We found that this facility vaccinated just 87.15084 percent of its patients, which is somewhat concerning. Nevertheless, this place was able to keep its patients out of the hospital. It had less than one hospitalization per one thousand long-term resident days, which is a remarkably low number.
