Facility Inspections

The main reason this nursing home received a decent overall score is its excellent inspections in recent years. We awarded it one of our higher scores in that category, with an A+. This is a notably better grade than the facility's overall score, which was decent but certainly not elite. Our inspection scores are tied to several pieces of information found on the a nursing home's recent inspection reports. Facilities that score well in this category typically have very few deficiencies on those reports. Most importantly, these nursing homes should not have any severe deficiencies which are associated with risks to patient safety. This particular nursing home had just a single deficiency on its inspection report and it was not one deemed to pose a threat to patient health or safety. Even some of the best nursing homes receive an occasional ding on their inspection report.

Long-term Care Quality

This nursing home also was awarded a strong long-term care grade. Indeed, we gave them a B+ in this area, which happens to be one of our better. Long-term care grades of this caliber generally require both around the clock care from nurses and aids, as well as quality routine healthcare services. Once we assessed the amount of care provided by nurses and other staff, we then looked at the facility's vaccination data. This nursing home vaccinated 99.715096 percent of its patients against pneumonia. Vaccines are critical to keeping patients out of the hospital. Finally, this place was able to limit hospitalizations. Indeed, it had only 0.02 hospitalizations per 1,000 long-term resident days, which is an impressively low number.

Nurse Quality

Turning to another strength for this facility, it also earned an elite nursing score. We gave this facility an impressive grade of D. Our nursing score includes several components, but the main consideration is the level of nurse hours spent with patients. This facility provided a meager 0.4 hours of nursing care per resident on a daily basis. Finally, we also looked at some nursing quality measures in computing our nursing ratings. This facility fared well when it comes to avoiding pressure ulcers and major falls.

Short-term Care Quality

The next category we looked at is short-term care. Unfortunately, we gave it a lowly F for this area, which is a poor grade. This is clearly a major concern. Short-term care grades are typically employed to assess a nursing home's performance with rehabilitation. To provide highly graded rehabilitation services, facilities generally need to provide higher levels of highly skilled nursing services. Skilled nursing includes registered nurses, physical therapists, respiratory therapists and other highly skilled individuals. It looks like this nursing home was subpar in terms of its quantity of physical therapy and registered nurse hours provided to its patients based on the data we looked at. The final datapoint we considered in this category is the number of patients who were able to leave the nursing home and return to the community. We discovered that just 4.2 percent of this facility's patients were able to return home, which is well below average. The combination of these poor statistics sunk this nursing home's short-term care grade.
