Facility Inspections

Grade: A-minus

The primary reason this turned out to be a decent nursing home is that it received an elite inspection grade. Its inspection score was far better than its overall grade. In the inspections category, we gave it a grade of A-. Arguably the most significant factor we consider in calculating our inspection ratings is deficiencies. Deficiencies are found on a nursing home's recent inspection reports. Places with better scores in this area most likely avoided the more severe deficiencies involving things like patient abuse. This particular nursing home received 4 deficiencies on its inspection report. Finally, this facility had no substantiated complaints this year from residents, which is an excellent sign.

Long-term Care Quality

Grade: A-minus

We also want to draw your attention to the fact that this nursing home was awarded a great long-term care score. In fact, we awarded it one of our highest grades in this area with a grade of A-. When nursing homes receive this type of score in long-term care it is a good sign for resident care and indicates that the nursing home is well-staffed with nurses aids. One of the statistics we considered after nursing hours is vaccines. This nursing home administered the pneumonia vaccine to 99.70414 percent of its residents. Vaccination is a proven method to avoid unnecessary deaths for the elderly population. Clearly, this nursing home is doing something right in this area as it was able to keep its patients out of the hospital. It had less than one hospitalization per one thousand long-term resident days, which is an impressively low figure.

Short-term Care Quality

Grade: D

This facility's second lowest score is short-term care, where it earned a grade of just D in that area. This is a well below average score. In crafting these short-term care grades, we quantify the facility's skilled nursing services, such as those performed by registered nurses, respiratory therapists, physical therapists and other types of therapists. The goal is to devise a tool for sizing up the rehabilitation services of various facilities. We found that this facility was below average in terms of its quantity of registered nurse and physical therapy hours provided to its residents based on the data we assessed. Finally, we considered the percentage of patients who were able to return to the community from this facility. We found that just 5.4 percent of this nursing home's patients returned home.

Nurse Quality

Grade: F

The next area we assessed was nursing, which ended up being this nursing home's weakest area. It received an F for this category, which is clearly concerning. Nursing scores are tied to quantity of nursing care available. This nursing home averaged just 0.4 hours of nursing care per resident daily. This is a very low total compared to most nursing homes. Finally, we also assessed some nursing quality-based metrics in calculating our nursing scores. This place performed well when it comes to minimizing its residents' pressure ulcers and major falls.
