Facility Inspections

Grade: A-plus

We want to draw your attention to the fact that this facility really outperformed its overall score in the category of inspections. In fact, it received a nearly flawless inspection report this year. As a result, it received one of our best scores in this category with a grade of A+. Perhaps the most significant factor we look at in computing our inspection scores is deficiencies. These deficiencies are found on a nursing home's inspection reports. Facilities with higher grades in this area typically avoided the most severe deficiencies involving things like patient abuse. This particular nursing home received 7 deficiencies on its inspection report. Overall, this is still a solid inspection report, but we'd always recommend looking into any deficiencies you find troubling.

Long-term Care Quality

Grade: B-minus

This nursing home 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 an acceptable score. In the area of long-term care, we look at the quantity of services provided by a nursing home, rather than more sophisticated services. One of the criteria we considered after nurse's aid hours was vaccinations. Frankly, we were a bit bothered by the fact that this facility administered the pneumonia vaccination to only 32.752613 percent of its patients. Nevertheless, this place keeps its residents out of the hospital. It had less than one hospitalization per one thousand long-term resident days, which is an impressively low number.

Nurse Quality

Grade: F

Next, we looked at the nursing category where we gave this nursing home an F. This is certainly not one of this facility's better areas. In determining our nursing grades, we weigh both the number of hours nurses spend with residents and the skill levels of those nurses. This place averaged only 0.3 hours of nursing care per patient per day. Finally, we also assessed some nursing quality measures in computing our nursing scores. This nursing home fared well when it comes to minimizing its residents' pressure ulcers and major falls. We consider these areas to be good measures of the quality of nursing care.

Short-term Care Quality

Grade: F

The next area we looked at is short-term care. We gave it an F for this category, which is an abysmal grade. This is obviously a major disappointment. With our short-term care score, we attempt to create a meaningful gauge for rehabilitation services. In this process, we analyze the facility's scope of skilled nursing services, including both registered nurses and physical therapy, as well as occupational therapy. Given its poor rating in this category, we weren't shocked to learn this place provides significantly fewer registered nurse and physical therapist hours per patient than most other nursing homes. The last measure we looked at in this category is the percentage of patients that ultimately were able to return home from the facility. This facility struggled quite a bit in this metric as well, with just 4.6 percent of its patients returning home.
