Facility Inspections

Grade: B

This nursing home earned an inspection grade which is better than its overall grade. Inspection scores are based on a facility's recent health inspections. We awarded this facility a very solid grade of B in this category. Inspection scores account for several factors included in a nursing home's inspection reports. One key criteria we rely on is the number and severity of deficiencies. Facilities with better scores in this area tend to have very few of these severe deficiencies. While this place had a few deficiencies on its report, none were major deficiencies based on CMS' deficiency scale. A few minor deficiencies should not lead you to cross a nursing home off your list.

Long-term Care Quality

Grade: B

In addition, we also would like to note that this nursing home was awarded impressive long-term care marks this year. We awarded them one of our better scores in that area, with a B. This turned out to be the facility's second strongest score. Nursing homes that do well in this category tend to provide residents with closer supervision and stay on top of routine medical care. In addition to assessing the amount of care provided by aids and other staff, we looked at the number of residents vaccinated against pneumonia. This nursing home gave the vaccine to 100 percent of its residents. Vaccines are vital to keeping residents out of the hospital. Lastly, this nursing home was able to limit hospitalizations. It had only 0.04 hospitalizations per one thousand long-term resident days, which is an impressively low number.

Nurse Quality

Grade: C

This facility's next best category grade came in the area of nursing. In that category, we gave this nursing home a grade of C. We assessed the skill-level of nurses at the nursing home, as well as the number of hours those nurses were with patients, in determining our score in this category. This facility averages 0.4 hours of nursing care per resident each day, which is well below average. Despite having low quantities of nursing care, this place excelled in some of the quality measures we assessed. In fact, it scored well in terms of avoiding pressure ulcers and major falls. We consider these areas to be reliable indicators of the quality of nursing care. In some cases, the quality of nursing care is every bit as important as the number of hours of care provided.

Short-term Care Quality

Grade: C

The final category we scored was short-term care. In this category, we awarded this nursing home a C. Short-term care grades are based on a facility's quantity of skilled highly skilled professionals. This means a broad spectrum of nursing services, ranging from registered nurses to physical and speech therapists, not to mention other forms of therapy. Unfortunately, we found that this facility provided fewer physical therapist and registered nurse hours per resident than most other nursing homes. Finally, we assessed the percentage of residents who were able to return to the community from this facility. We found that 4.6 percent of this facility's residents returned home. At most nursing homes, closer to half of their residents are able to return home so this figure is below average.
