Short-term Care Quality

Grade: B

We wanted to point out that this nursing home' short-term care grade outpaced its overall score. In fact, we awarded it a B for short-term care, which is one of our better scores. This helped its overall score. Our short-term care ratings are based on the nursing home's quantity of skilled skilled healthcare professionals. This means a wide spectrum of nursing services, spanning from registered nurses to physical and respiratory therapists, as well as other variations of therapy. Fortunately, it appear that this facility employs registered nurses. Not every facility employs these skilled professionals. However, based on the data this nursing home provided, it does not look like the facility employs physical therapists. Lastly, we considered the number of residents that eventually returned home from this nursing home. We found that 5.1 percent of this nursing home's residents were able to return home.

Nurse Quality

Grade: B

This facility also excelled in the area of nursing, where it earned a grade of B. Nursing scores are primarily associated with a facility's nurse staffing. This facility provided 0.3 hours of nursing care per resident per day. Finally, our nursing grades also factor in quality-based assessments, such as avoiding major falls. This nursing home performed well in this area. Avoiding major falls is typically a good indicator that a facility has reliable quality controls in place. Major falls can frequently be avoided if more nurses aids and better safety protocols are in place.

Facility Inspections

Grade: B

It should also be noted that this facility's inspection score was strong as well. In fact, we awarded it a B for its inspection reports, which is one of our better scores. We weigh several aspects of a nursing home's inspection report in determining these inspection grades. One critical factor is health deficiencies. It should be noted that the severity of deficiencies is usually more meaningful than the number of deficiencies, as some of these end up being quite minor. This particular nursing home received 2 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: D

This facility's worst area is long-term care, which is the final category we analyzed. For this area, we gave this nursing home a grade of D. In a long-term care setting, the facility's primary objective is to maintain residents' quality of life and keep them safe. Once we assessed the amount of care provided by nurses aids and other staff, we next considered the nursing home's vaccination data. This nursing home vaccinated 94.495415 percent of its patients against pneumonia, which is better than the average nursing home. To our surprise, this nursing home also fared well at keeping its residents out of the hospital. Indeed, it had just 0.01 hospitalizations per one thousand long-term resident days. Unfortunately, some of its other scores in this category weren't as favorable as these.
