Facility Inspections
To pair with its decent overall grade, we gave this facility an A for our inspections rating. This is far more impressive than its overall grade.

Places with higher grades in this area most likely dodged the more severe deficiencies involving things like patient abuse. This facility was assessed 3 deficiencies on its inspection report, but fortunately none of the deficiencies were considered to be severe deficiencies. This indicates that the inspectors didn't consider any of the deficiencies to cause an immediate threat to patient health or safety. Finally, this facility had no substantiated complaints this year from residents, which is an excellent sign.

When nursing homes receive this kind of grade in this category it is a good sign for resident care and indicates that the place is well-staffed with nurses aids. After assessing the volume of care provided by nurses aids and other staff, we then analyzed the nursing home's vaccination record. This facility vaccinated 96 percent of its patients against pneumonia. Vaccines are vital to keeping patients healthy. Clearly, this nursing home is doing something right in this area as it also excelled at keeping its patients out of the hospital.
