Facility Inspections

Grade: A-plus

In addition to receiving a great overall score, this place also earned first-rate health inspections in recent years. We gave it one of our higher grades in that category, with an A+. Our inspection scores are based on several datapoints located in the a nursing home's recent inspection reports. Facilities that score well in this area have very few deficiencies on those reports. Most importantly, these facilities should not have any severe deficiencies which are associated with risks to patient safety. While this facility had some minor dings on its inspection report, it had no severe deficiencies. Severe deficiencies are ones labeled as categories G, H, I, J, K and L. This means the 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.

Long-term Care Quality

Grade: B-plus

This facility is also above average in the area of long-term care, where it was given a grade of B+. It outpaced most nursing homes in this area. When nursing homes receive a grade in this range in long-term care it typically means it's well-staffed and is a quality place to live on a permanent basis. One of the criteria we considered after nursing hours is vaccines. This nursing home provided the pneumonia vaccination to 98.34711 percent of its patients. This is a great way to avoid unnecessary deaths and hospitalizations for the elderly population. Finally, this nursing home was able to limit hospitalizations. It had less than one hospitalization per one thousand long-term resident days, which is an impressively low number.

Short-term Care Quality

Grade: B-minus

This nursing home's next most favorable category is short-term care. We awarded it a grade of B- in this area. This is essentially a slightly below average grade in this category. Short-term care grades are vital for patients needing rehabilitation. Rehabilitation generally requires additional highly-skilled nursing services. This includes a wide scope of nursing services, ranging from registered nurses to physical and occupational therapists, as well as other variations of therapy. Fortunately, it looks like this nursing home employs registered nurses. Not all nursing homes employs these skilled professionals. However, according to the information this nursing home provided, it does not look like the facility employs physical therapists. The final item we assessed in this category is the percentage of residents who were able to return home from the nursing home. We found that just 5.4 percent of this nursing home's patients returned home.

Nurse Quality

Grade: D

The last area we assessed was nursing, which proved to be this facility's weakest area. We gave this facility a grade of D in that category. Naturally, this score pulled down the nursing home's overall grade to a certain degree. Nursing scores are based largely on quality and quantity of nursing care. This facility provided just 0.4 hours of nursing care per resident each day. While this place didn't excel in the area of nursing hours, it surprised us in some of the quality-based assessments in the nursing category, such as avoiding major falls. This place performed above average in this statistic, which was one redeeming quality we found in this category.
