Facility Inspections

Grade: A

While this nursing home's overall grade was not bad, it really fared well in the area of inspections. In fact, we awarded it a grade of A for that category, which is one of our best scores. Inspection grades account for a host of factors found on a facility's inspection reports. One of the most important criteria we rely on is the quantity and severity of deficiencies. Facilities with better grades in this category usually have very few of these severe deficiencies. It does not appear that we have information about this nursing home's deficiencies. Finally, this facility had no substantiated complaints this year from residents, which is an excellent sign.

Long-term Care Quality

Grade: A-minus

This facility also performed favorably in the category of long-term care, with an elite score of A- in this category. When nursing homes receive this kind of score in this category it is a good sign for resident care and suggests that the facility is well-staffed with nurses aids. After assessing the amount of care provided by nurses and other staff, we then looked at the facility's vaccination statistics. This nursing home vaccinated 100 percent of its residents for pneumonia. Vaccines are vital to keeping residents healthy. Finally, this facility was able to limit hospitalizations. It had less than one hospitalization per 1,000 long-term resident days, which is a remarkably low figure.

Nurse Quality

Grade: D

Another strength of this nursing home is its favorable grade in nursing. We gave them one of our better scores in that area, with an impressive grade of D. When calculating our nursing ratings, we factor in both staffing levels and the levels of licensure of those nurses. This nursing home averaged a meager 0.4 hours of nursing care per patient on a daily basis. Finally, we also assessed some nursing quality measures in computing our nursing ratings. This nursing home performed well in the area of minimizing its residents' major falls and pressure ulcers.

Short-term Care Quality

Grade: F

This facility's least impressive area is short-term care, which is the last category we looked at. Unfortunately, we gave it an abysmal F in this category. Despite several solid scores in other areas, this score is still concerning so we felt obligated to point it out. Our short-term care grade is often employed to assess a facility's rehabilitation services. To provide highly scored rehabilitation services, facilities generally must provide better levels of highly skilled nursing. Skilled nursing includes registered nurses, physical therapists, speech therapists and other highly trained professionals. Unfortunately, this nursing home was below average in terms of its quantity of physical therapy and registered nurse hours provided to its residents based on the measures we assessed. Finally, we considered the number of patients who who were able to eventually return home from this facility. This facility didn't fare well here either. In fact, we found that just 3.8 percent of this facility's patients were able to return home. This figure was quite a bit off the national average.
