Facility Inspections

Grade: A-plus

We also wanted to emphasize that this facility earned near flawless health inspections recently. We gave them an impressive grade of A+ in this category. Inspection ratings account for a host of factors found on a nursing home's inspection report. One key criteria we look at is the quantity and severity of deficiencies. Facilities with higher grades in this area tend to have few severe deficiencies. This nursing home was hit with 3 deficiencies on its inspection report, but we were relieved to see that none of the deficiencies were considered severe. This tells you that CMS didn't deem any of the deficiencies to be an immediate risk to resident safety or health. Finally, this facility had no substantiated complaints this year from residents, which is an excellent sign.

Short-term Care Quality

Grade: B-plus

This nursing home is also above average in the area of short-term care, where it was given a grade of B+. It outpaced most nursing homes in this category. Our short-term care scores are vital for residents requiring rehabilitation. Rehabilitation typically utilizes more highly-skilled nursing services. Skilled nursing includes a vast range of nursing services, ranging from registered nurses to physical and occupational therapists, as well as other forms of therapy. Fortunately, it appear that this facility employs registered nurses. Not every facility employs these types of nurses. On the other hand, according to the data they provided, they do not appear to employ physical therapists. Lastly, we considered the percentage of residents who who were able to eventually return home from this nursing home. We found that 0 percent of this facility's patients returned home.

Long-term Care Quality

Grade: B

This nursing home was awarded an impressive long-term care score as well. We gave it one of our higher grades in that category with a score of B. When nursing homes receive this kind of score in this category it is a good sign for resident care and indicates that the nursing home is well-staffed with nurses aids. One of the criteria we considered after nursing hours was vaccines. This facility provided the pneumonia vaccination to 97.96954 percent of its patients. Vaccination is a reliable method to avoid unnecessary deaths and hospitalizations for the aged 65 and up population. Clearly, this place is doing something right in this area as it also excelled at keeping its residents out of the hospital. Indeed, it had only 0.01 hospitalizations per one thousand long-term resident days, which is a remarkably low figure.

Nurse Quality

Grade: B-minus

Turning to the fourth area, this nursing home received a respectable nursing rating. Although this isn't as dominant as a few of its other scores, this is still not a poor grade. In calculating a facility's nursing rating, we assess the number of hours nurses commit to residents as well as the levels of training of those nurses. This facility provides only 0.3 hours of nursing care per resident on a daily basis. This is a somewhat discouraging figure which is well below the national average. Finally, despite not having the highest total nursing hours, this place performed admirably in the metric of preventing major falls. This is generally a reliable indicator that a nursing home has quality controls in place.
