Facility Inspections

Grade: A-plus

While this nursing home's overall grade was decent, it really excelled in the area of inspections. In fact, we awarded it a grade of A+ for that category, which is one of our highest scores. These inspection scores take several factors into consideration, including deficiencies, substantiated complaints and federal fines. You can find more information about each of these factors by reviewing copies of nursing homes' inspection reports. While this place had a few minor dings on its government inspection report, it had zero severe deficiencies. Severe deficiencies are those found in categories G through L. This tells you the government inspectors did not consider any of the deficiencies on this facility's report to pose an imminent threat to patient health or safety. Finally, this facility had no substantiated complaints this year from residents, which is an excellent sign.

Long-term Care Quality

Grade: B-plus

We also gave this facility a favorable score in long-term care. This nursing home received a grade of B+ in this category, which happens to be one of our more impressive scores. For long-term care residents, the facility's primary objective is to maintain residents' quality of life and keep them safe. This place seems like a good option if you are looking for a permanent place to reside.

Short-term Care Quality

Grade: B

Additionally, we also would like to draw your attention to the fact that this facility received favorable short-term care marks this year. We gave them one of our better grades in that area, with a B. In the category of short-term care, we endeavor to evaluate indicators of a nursing home's rehabilitation services. We assess the facility's skilled nursing services, including the ones performed by registered nurses and physical, occupational and other therapists. It does not appear that this nursing home submitted registered nurse or physical therapist staffing data. Lastly, we assessed the percentage of residents who were able to return to the community from this nursing home. We found that 6.9 percent of this facility's patients returned home.

Nurse Quality

Grade: F

This facility's worst category is nursing, which is the final area we assessed. Unfortunately, we gave it an abysmal F for this category. In spite of several respectable scores in other areas, this grade is still of a concern so we wanted to make a note of it. When calculating a nursing home's nursing score, we weigh the quantity of hours nurses are with patients as well as the level of licensure of those nurses. This particular facility averaged a meager 0.1 hours of nursing care per patient on a daily basis. This figure is quite a bit below the national average. Lastly, we also assessed some nursing quality measures in computing our nursing grades. This nursing home fared well when it comes to avoiding major falls and pressure ulcers. Many consider these data points to be reliable indicators of the quality of nursing care.
