Nurse Quality

Grade: A-minus

This nursing home received a solid overall grade as described above, but it really excelled in nursing care, with an impressive grade of A- in this category. There are numerous criteria included in this grade. Most of the criteria reflect staffing levels. This particular nursing home 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 facility performed well in this area. Avoiding major falls is typically a good indicator that a nursing home has reliable quality controls in place. Major falls can often be prevented if more nurses aids and better safety protocols are in place.

Long-term Care Quality

Grade: B

Another one of this facility's more impressive category scores was in the area of long-term care. In that category, we gave this facility a B. It actually outpaced most nursing homes in this area. In a long-term care setting, the primary goal is to maintain residents' quality of life and keep them safe. On top of looking at the quantity of care provided by nurses and other staff, we also looked at the number of residents vaccinated for pneumonia. This nursing home gave the vaccine to 89.40398 percent of its patients. This is slightly less than we anticipated. Although its vaccination rate was a bit lower than we like to see, we were pleased to find nursing home was able to limit hospitalizations. In fact, it had only 0 hospitalizations per 1,000 long-term resident days, which is a remarkably low figure.

Facility Inspections

Grade: B-minus

Turning to our inspection category, it appears this nursing home has received respectable inspections in recent years as well. We gave it a B- in this category. These inspection ratings weigh several factors, including deficiencies and federal fines. You can learn more about each of these issues by reviewing copies of nursing homes' inspection reports. This nursing home received 6 deficiencies on its inspection report, but none were considered severe. This tells you that the government inspectors didn't consider any of the deficiencies an imminent risk to resident safety or health. The fact that none of the deficiencies were severe leaves us less concerned with this inspection report.

Short-term Care Quality

Grade: B-minus

Moving on to our fourth area, this nursing home was given a B- for short-term care, which we consider to be a decent grade. Short-term care grades are based on the facility's quantity of highly-skilled nursing services. This includes a broad range of nursing services, ranging from registered nurses to physical and speech therapists, in addition to other forms of therapy. Fortunately, it looks like this nursing home employs registered nurses. Not all nursing homes employs these skilled professionals. On the other hand, according to the data this nursing home provided, it does not look like the facility employs physical therapists. Finally, we assessed the number of residents that ultimately returned home from this facility. We found that 0 percent of this facility's residents were able to return home. This figure was well below average.
