Nurse Quality

Grade: B-plus

It should also be noted that this facility's nursing grade outpaced its overall rating. We awarded it a B+ for its nursing score. The nursing category includes a handful of subcategories, most of which are associated with quantities of nurse staffing. This nursing home provides 0.4 hours of nursing care per resident per day. Finally, our nursing grades also factor in quality-based assessments, such as avoiding major falls. This facility performed well in this area. Avoiding major falls is typically a good indicator that a place has reliable quality controls in place. Major falls can many times be avoided if more nurses aids and better safety protocols are in place.

Short-term Care Quality

Grade: B

We also awarded this facility a favorable grade in short-term care. This facility earned a grade of B in this area, which is one of our higher grades. In forming our short-term care scores, we assess the facility's skilled nursing services, such as those performed by registered nurses, occupational therapists, physical therapists and other types of therapists. Our purpose is to devise a measure for comparing the rehabilitation services of various facilities. Unfortunately, we weren't able to track down information on registered nurse or physical therapy staffing for this nursing home. Lastly, we considered the number of patients who were able to return to the community from this facility. We found that 5 percent of this nursing home's patients returned home.

Long-term Care Quality

Grade: B

This facility also was awarded an impressive grade in our long-term care category. We gave this facility a better than average grade of B in that area. Facilities that excel in long-term care tend to provide patients with closer supervision and stay on top of routine healthcare services. One of the criteria we considered on top of nursing hours is vaccines. This nursing home administered the pneumonia vaccine to 100 percent of its patients. This is a great way to minimize unnecessary hospitalizations for the senior population. Clearly, this place is doing something right in this area as it was able to keep its patients out of the hospital. In fact, it had less than one hospitalization per 1,000 long-term resident days, which is an impressively low number.

Facility Inspections

Grade: C

In the final category of government inspections, we gave this facility a score of C for our this category. We believe that one of the most critical factors in evaluating an inspection report is deficiencies. We especially focus on the severity of those deficiencies. This nursing home was hit with 4 deficiencies on its inspection report, but none were in any of the categories labeled G through L. This means CMS didn't consider any of the deficiencies to present an imminent danger to resident health or safety. We did not find anything on this nursing home's inspection reports to be too alarming.
