Long-term Care Quality

Grade: B

We want point out that this facility's long-term care grade exceeded its overall score. This nursing home earned a grade of B in this area. Nursing homes that excel in this category typically provide residents with more supervision and stay on top of routine medical care. After considering the quantity of care provided by nurses and other staff, we then analyzed the facility's vaccination data. This facility vaccinated 96.052635 percent of its patients for pneumonia. Vaccines are critical to keeping patients healthy. Clearly, this facility is doing something right in this area as it was able to keep its residents 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: B-minus

This nursing home actually received a solid inspection report this year as well, with few major dings from the applicable government inspectors. As a result, it earned one of our better grades in that category with a B-. We were surprised this nursing home received multiple category grades of this caliber. These inspection scores take several factors into consideration, including deficiencies and substantiated complaints. You can find more information about each of these issues by obtaining copies of nursing homes' inspection reports. This particular nursing home received 6 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.

Nurse Quality

Grade: B-minus

This facility's next best category was its nursing grade, where it received a grade of B-. Our nursing rating focuses on the facility's level of nurse staffing. We weigh both the levels of training of those nurses as well as the number of hours spent with residents. This nursing home provided just 0.3 hours of nursing care per resident daily. This figure is far below average. Despite having low quantities of nursing care, this facility excelled in some of the quality-based metrics we looked at. It performed well when it comes to minimizing its residents' major falls and pressure ulcers. Many consider these areas to be reliable indicators of the quality of nursing care. In some cases, the quality of nursing care is as important as the quantity of hours of care offered.

Short-term Care Quality

Grade: B-minus

The next area we analyzed is short-term care. We awarded this nursing home a grade of B- in that area. Our short-term care grade is commonly employed to score a facility's performance with rehabilitation. To offer quality rehabilitation services, facilities generally must provide better levels of highly skilled nursing services. These types of services include registered nurses, physical therapists, occupational therapists and other types of therapists. In this place's case, we were surprised to learn that it actually provides less registered nurse and physical therapist hours per resident than the average facility. The final measure we considered in this category is the percentage of residents who eventually returned home from the facility. We found that just 4.8 percent of this facility's patients returned home. Unfortunately, this was below average.
