Facility Inspections

Grade: A

In addition to performing well in its overall grade, this nursing home performed at an even higher level in the area of inspections. In fact, it received a nearly flawless inspection report this year. As a result, it received one of our highest grades in that category with a score of A. Perhaps the most important factor we look at in computing our inspection ratings is deficiencies. These deficiencies are found on a nursing home's inspection reports. Facilities with better scores in this area most likely dodged the more severe deficiencies involving patient abuse or death. This nursing home was hit with 2 deficiencies on its inspection report, but fortunately none were considered to be severe. This means that CMS didn't deem any of the deficiencies to create an immediate threat to patient health or safety. We should note that deficiency-free inspection reports are uncommon in the industry.

Short-term Care Quality

Grade: B

Another strong feature for this facility is that it received an impressive short-term care score. In fact, this proved to be its second best category score. In that category, we awarded this facility a B. In the area of short-term care, we endeavor to assess measures of a nursing home's rehabilitation. We look at a facility's skilled nursing services, including the ones performed by registered nurses and physical therapists. We weren't able to locate registered nurse or physical therapy staffing data for this facility. The last item we considered in this area is the percentage of residents who were able to leave the nursing home and return home. We discovered that 5.7 percent of this nursing home's residents returned home.

Nurse Quality

Grade: B-minus

Next, we looked at the nursing category where we awarded this nursing home a grade of B-. This facility didn't perform quite as well in this category as it did in some other categories. Nevertheless, this is still a respectable score. We weighed the levels of nurses working for the nursing home, as well as the quantity of hours those nurses worked with residents, in determining our score in this area. This nursing home averages just 0.4 hours of nursing care per resident per day. This is a very low figure. Despite having low quantities of nursing care, this place surprisingly fared better in some of the quality measures we looked at. It scored well when it comes to minimizing its residents' major falls and pressure ulcers.

Long-term Care Quality

Grade: B-minus

Turning to the final area, this nursing home was given a decent long-term care grade of B-. Our long-term care ratings are vital for residents needing personal care. On top of considering the amount of care provided by nurses aids and other staff, we also looked at the number of residents vaccinated against pneumonia. Fortunately, this nursing home administered the vaccine to 100 percent of its residents, which is an above average percentage. Lastly, this nursing home was also able to limit hospitalizations. Indeed, it had only 0 hospitalizations per 1,000 long-term resident days, which is a remarkably low number.
