Facility Inspections

Grade: A

The primary reason this facility received a decent overall score is its excellent government inspections in recent years. We gave them one of our better grades in that area, with an A. This is a much better score than the place's overall grade, which was decent but certainly not elite. Inspection ratings account for a host of factors included in a facility's inspection reports. One key criteria we look at is the quantity and severity of deficiencies. Places with higher grades in this area usually have very few severe deficiencies. This particular nursing home had just a single deficiency on its inspection report and it was not one deemed to pose a threat to patient health or safety. Finally, this facility had no substantiated complaints this year from residents, which is an excellent sign.

Long-term Care Quality

Grade: A-minus

An additional strength of this facility is its strong grade in long-term care. We gave it one of our most impressive scores in that area, with a grade of A-. When nursing homes receive this kind of grade in this category it is typically a good sign for patient care and indicates that the nursing home is well-staffed with nurses aids. In addition to looking at the volume of care provided by nurses and other staff, we looked at the number of residents vaccinated for pneumonia. This nursing home vaccinated 100 percent of its patients. Vaccines are critical to keeping patients healthy. Clearly, this facility is doing something right in this area as it was able to keep its patients out of the hospital. It had only 0 hospitalizations per 1,000 long-term resident days, which is an impressively low number.

Nurse Quality

Grade: D

Another strength of this nursing home is its favorable grade in nursing. We gave them one of our better scores in that area, with an impressive grade of D. Our nursing score is based on many factors, most of which are associated with levels of nurse staffing. This place provided just 0.3 hours of nursing care per patient daily. This figure is far below the national average. Finally, we also looked at some nursing quality measures in calculating our nursing scores. This nursing home performed well in terms of avoiding pressure ulcers and major falls. We consider these datapoints to be good measures of the quality of nursing care.

Short-term Care Quality

Grade: D

Turning to our next area, we awarded this nursing home a D in the area of short-term care. This was the nursing home's weakest category score. Naturally, this category pulled down the facility's overall profile to a certain degree. Short-term care scores are based in part on a nursing home's quantity of skilled nursing services. This includes a wide scope of nursing services, ranging from registered nurses to physical and speech therapists, as well as other variations of therapy. Unfortunately, this nursing home was below average in terms of its quantity of physical therapy and registered nurse hours provided to its residents based on the measures we assessed. The final datapoint we considered in this area is the number of residents that returned home from the facility. This nursing home struggled quite a bit in this metric as well, with just 0 percent of its patients returning home. This was quite a bit below average.
