Long-term Care Quality

Grade: A-minus

This nursing home excelled in our long-term care category, with an A- in this area. This really propped up its overall score quite a bit. In a long-term care setting, the facility's primary goal is to keep patients healthy and safe. This is different than skilled nursing or short-term care where the goal is to rehabilitate residents. One of the factors we considered on top of nurse's aid hours was vaccines. This nursing home administered the pneumonia vaccine to 72.38806 percent of its patients. While its vaccination rate was a bit lower than we hoped for, we were pleased to find facility was able to limit hospitalizations. Indeed, it had less than one hospitalization per 1,000 long-term resident days, which is a remarkably low number.

Facility Inspections

Grade: A-minus

This facility also performed well in inspections. It received one of our best grades in that category with an A-. We take several aspects of a facility's inspection report into consideration in computing our inspection scores. One critical factor is health deficiencies. It should be noted that the severity of the deficiencies is usually more meaningful than the quantity of deficiencies, as some can be relatively insignificant. This particular nursing home had just a single deficiency on its inspection report and it was not one deemed to pose a threat to patient health or safety. Finally, this facility had no substantiated complaints this year from residents, which is always a good sign.

Short-term Care Quality

Grade: D

Sadly, this nursing home only earned a grade of D for its short-term care rating, which is not a score to write home about. With our short-term care rating, we attempt to create a meaningful barometer for rehabilitation. In doing so, we analyze the facility's level of skilled nursing services, including both registered nurses and physical therapy, as well as speech therapy. Not surprisingly, we found that this nursing home provides far less physical therapist and registered nurse hours per resident than the average facility. Lastly, we assessed the number of patients who ultimately were able to return home from this facility. This facility didn't fare well here either. In fact, we found that just 5.5 percent of this facility's residents were able to return home.

Nurse Quality

Grade: F

The final category we looked at is nursing, which is this facility's least impressive area. It received a lowly F in this area, which is certainly concerning. The nursing grade weighs quite a few subcategories, most of which are tied to nursing hours. This nursing home provided just 0.3 hours of nursing care per patient per day. This is an alarmingly low total. Finally, we also assessed some nursing quality measures in determining our nursing scores. This facility performed well in terms of avoiding major falls and pressure ulcers.
