Nurse Quality

Grade: A-plus

The main thing propping up this nursing home's profile is its elite nursing rating. In fact, we gave this facility a grade of A+ in that category. Our nursing score weighs many factors. The most important variable is the number of hours nurses spent with patients. This facility provided 0.5 hours of nursing care per resident per day. Finally, we also looked at several nursing quality measures and this nursing home excelled in some of these areas. With less than five percent of its residents sustaining pressure ulcers, it performed as well as any facility the country in this category. This is generally a good indicator of quality nursing care. Pressure ulcers can frequently be avoided by offering better nursing care, such as having a protocol of turning a resident even once per day.

Short-term Care Quality

Grade: A-minus

We also want to note that this facility was awarded a strong short-term care score. Indeed, we gave it one of our most favorable scores in that area with a score of A-. In forming our short-term care grades, we quantify the nursing home's skilled nursing services, including those performed by registered nurses, speech therapists, physical therapists and other types of skilled professionals. The goal is to formulate a barometer for comparing the rehabilitation services of nursing homes. Fortunately, it appear that this facility has registered nurses on staff. Not every nursing home employs these types of nurses. On the other hand, according to the data this nursing home provided, they do not appear to employ physical therapists. The last metric we considered in this category is the percentage of patients who were able to leave the facility and return home. We found that 0 percent of this facility's patients were able to return home.

Long-term Care Quality

Grade: B-plus

In addition, we also would like to point out that this facility was awarded impressive long-term care marks this year. We gave them one of our higher scores in this category, with a B+. Nursing homes that do well in this category typically provide residents with closer supervision and stay on top of routine medical care. One of the criteria we considered on top of nursing hours is vaccines. This facility provided the pneumonia vaccination to 100 percent of its residents. Vaccination is a reliable method to minimize unnecessary deaths and hospitalizations for the nursing home population. Clearly, this place is doing something right in this area as it also excelled at keeping its patients out of the hospital. It had only 0.02 hospitalizations per one thousand long-term resident days, which is an impressively low number.

Facility Inspections

Grade: F

Moving on our final category of inspections, this nursing home received an F in this area. This score was very detrimental to this facility's overall score. For places with poor inspection scores, you should really scrutinize any severe deficiencies found on their recent inspection reports. This particular facility was hit with one deficiency by CMS. Fortunately, it was not in one of the categories that suggest that it posed a threat to resident safety or health. Finally, we need to draw your attention to the fact that this place was assessed large government fines in recent years totaling more than $100,000. This generally suggests that a nursing home's poor track record has been an issue for multiple years.
