Facility Inspections

Grade: A

To pair with its great overall score, we awarded this nursing home an A for inspections. Our inspection scores account for a host of factors included in a facility's inspection report. One key criteria we consider is the quantity and severity of deficiencies. Places with better grades in this category typically have few severe deficiencies. This particular nursing home received 4 deficiencies on its inspection report. Overall, this is still a good inspection report, but we'd always recommend looking into any deficiencies you find troubling.

Short-term Care Quality

Grade: A-minus

Adding to its high-end assessment, this nursing home also was given an excellent short-term care grade, with a grade of A-. Short-term care grades are commonly used to assess a nursing home's performance with rehabilitation. To provide good rehabilitation services, facilities generally need to offer better levels of highly skilled nursing. Skilled nursing includes registered nurses, physical therapists, respiratory therapists and other types of therapists. We weren't able to find information on registered nurse or physical therapy staffing for this nursing home. The last metric we assessed in this category is the percentage of residents who were able to leave the nursing home and return to the community. We found that 5.9 percent of this nursing home's patients returned home.

Long-term Care Quality

Grade: B-plus

Turning to our third category, this nursing home also received a grade of B+ for its long-term care rating. This is an above average grade in this area. When nursing homes receive this type of score in this category it is typically a good sign for patient care and indicates that the place is well-staffed with nurses and aids. In addition to looking at the volume of care provided by nurses and other staff, we analyzed the number of residents vaccinated against pneumonia. This facility administered the vaccine to 98.828125 percent of its patients, which is very impressive. Pneumonia is often a dangerous condition for nursing home patients so we strongly prefer when a nursing home does not leave its residents vulnerable. Clearly, this facility is doing something right in this area as it also excelled at keeping its residents out of the hospital. It had less than one hospitalization per one thousand long-term resident days, which is a remarkably low number.

Nurse Quality

Grade: B-plus

In our last category, this nursing home also received an excellent nursing grade, with a grade of B+. This wrapped up a very strong report card. Our nursing score looks at the facility's nurse staffing levels. We consider both the levels of training of those nurses and the quantity of hours spent with patients. This facility provided 0.5 hours of nursing care per resident per day. Lastly, we also looked at certain nursing quality measures in computing our nursing grades. These include minimizing residents' pressure ulcers and major falls. We look at these data points as predictive indicators of the quality of nursing care being provided, since better care tends to reduce these problems.
