Facility Inspections

Grade: A-plus

In addition to receiving a great overall rating, this facility received an A+ inspection score. This score is based on the facility's recent inspection reports. An A+ in this area is one of the highest complements we can pay to a facility. Inspection scores weigh several factors found on a nursing home's inspection report. One key criteria we rely on is the number and severity of deficiencies. Nursing homes with better grades in this category typically have very few of these severe deficiencies. This facility received 2 deficiencies on its inspection report, but fortunately none of the deficiencies were considered severe. This tells you that the government inspectors did not consider any of these deficiencies to cause an imminent risk to patient safety or health. Finally, this facility had no substantiated complaints this year from residents, which is an excellent sign.

Nurse Quality

Grade: A-plus

This nursing home also received an A+ for its nursing grade. Nursing grades are mostly tied to a nursing home's nurse staffing. This facility provided 0.5 hours of nursing care per resident per day. Finally, our nursing grades also factor in quality-based assessments, such as avoiding major falls. This facility performed well in this area. Avoiding major falls is typically a good indicator that a facility has reliable quality controls in place. Major falls can frequently be avoided if more nurses aids and better safety protocols are in place.

Long-term Care Quality

Grade: A

This nursing home also received a impressive long-term care score. In fact, this ended up being this nursing home's third strongest category score. In that category, we awarded this facility a grade of A. Facilities that receive this type of grade in long-term care tend to provide consistent around the clock care to make sure patients are well cared for. After considering the amount of care provided by aids and other staff, we next considered the facility's vaccination records. This facility vaccinated 96.414345 percent of its patients for pneumonia, which is higher than the vast majority of nursing homes. Lastly, this facility was able to limit hospitalizations. In fact, it had less than one hospitalization per one thousand long-term resident days, which is a remarkably low figure.

Short-term Care Quality

Grade: B

The final area we graded is short-term care. We awarded this nursing home one of our more favorable grades in this category, with a grade of B. While this is not as high as a few of this facility's other grades, it is still a perfectly acceptable grade. With our short-term care rating, we attempt to craft a meaningful measure for rehabilitation services. In doing so, we assess the facility's levels of highly-skilled nursing services, including both registered nurses and physical therapy, as well as speech therapy. Fortunately, it appear that this nursing home employs registered nurses. Not all facilities employs these skilled professionals. However, based on the data they provided, they do not appear to employ physical therapists. Finally, we considered the percentage of residents who were able to return to the community from this nursing home. We found that 4.4 percent of this facility's residents returned home.
