Facility Inspections

It should be noted that this facility's inspection grade outpaced its overall score. In fact, we awarded it a B+ for its inspections grade, which is one of our better scores. Inspection ratings are based on several pieces of information located in the a nursing home's recent inspection reports. Facilities that excel in this category have few deficiencies on their reports. Most importantly, these facilities generally do not have any severe deficiencies which are associated with endangerment of patients. Although this nursing home had some deficiencies on its government inspection report, none were severe based on CMS' deficiency scale. Keep in mind that deficiency-free inspections are rare in this industry.

Short-term Care Quality

In addition, we awarded this nursing home a grade of B in our short-term care category. This is one of our more favorable grades. Short-term care grades are generally employed to judge a nursing home's rehabilitation services. To offer good rehabilitation services, nursing homes generally need to have higher levels of highly skilled nursing. Skilled nursing includes registered nurses, physical therapists, occupational therapists and other licensed professionals. Fortunately, it looks like this facility has registered nurses on staff. Not all nursing homes employs these types of nurses. On the other hand, based on the data this nursing home provided, they do not appear to employ physical therapists. The last metric we assessed in this area is the number of patients who eventually returned home from the facility. We found that 5.1 percent of this nursing home's patients returned home as opposed to remaining at the nursing home on a permanent basis.
