Facility Inspections

Grade: A-minus

To pair with its relatively modest overall grade, we awarded this facility an A- for our inspections rating. This score is far more impressive than the facility's overall rating. Our inspection scores account for several factors found on a nursing home's inspection reports. One of the most important criteria we consider is the number and severity of deficiencies. Nursing homes with better scores in this area usually have few severe deficiencies. While this facility had a few minor dings on its report, it had zero severe deficiencies. Severe deficiencies are labeled as categories G through L. This means the inspectors did not consider any of the deficiencies on this facility's report to pose an imminent threat to patient safety or health. We should point out that deficiency-free inspection reports are rare in the industry.

Long-term Care Quality

Grade: B-minus

This facility was given its second best category grade in the area of long-term care. We gave this facility a B- in this area, which is a decent grade. Our long-term care grade assesses a facility's assistance with daily living instead of the skilled nursing or healthcare services that are critical to a rehabilitation facility. After assessing the volume of care provided by aids and other staff, we then looked at the nursing home's vaccination statistics. This facility vaccinated 98.81657 percent of its patients for pneumonia, which is better than the majority of nursing homes. This nursing home was able to keep its patients out of the hospital. It had less than one hospitalization per 1,000 long-term resident days, which is a remarkably low number.

Short-term Care Quality

Grade: B-minus

This facility was given its next highest category grade in the area of short-term care. We awarded this nursing home a B- in this category, which is an acceptable grade. In determining our short-term care ratings, we size up the nursing home's levels of skilled nursing, which includes registered nurses, physical therapists speech therapists and other highly skilled individuals. This score is typically a meaningful assessment of the nursing home's rehabilitation. Unfortunately, we were not able to find information on registered nurse or physical therapy staffing for this nursing home. Lastly, we considered the number of residents who who were able to eventually return home from this nursing home. We found that 0 percent of this facility's residents were able to return home. This figure was well below the national average.

Nurse Quality

Grade: C

The final category we assessed is nursing. In that category, we awarded this facility a C. We weighed the licensure of nurses employed by the nursing home, as well as the quantity of hours the nurses were with residents, in calculating our score in this area. This facility provided just 0.4 hours of nursing care per resident per day. This is a relatively low total compared to most other facilities. While this nursing home didn't really impress in terms of the quantity of nursing care offered, it actually performed admirably in a few of our quality-based metrics. In fact, it was above average in two of the major areas we look at, with positive reviews for minimizing its residents' pressure ulcers and major falls. These areas are indicators of the quality of nursing care offered since many bed sores and falls can be avoided.
