Facility Inspections

In fact, we gave it a B for that area, which is one of our better scores. Inspection scores are tied to several pieces of information located in the a nursing home's recent inspection reports. Deficiencies are a key item to look for on these inspections. You should especially avoid facilities that have severe deficiencies associated with risks to resident well being. Amazingly, this was one of the few nursing homes in the country that had no deficiencies whatsoever on its inspection report. This is very impressive. Not having any deficiencies proved to be this facility's greatest strength.

We also awarded this facility a grade of C for our nursing rating. We assessed the licensure of nurses working for the nursing home, as well as the quantity of hours the nurses were with residents, in calculating our rating in this category. This particular facility provided just 0.3 hours of nursing care per resident each day. This figure is far below average. Lastly, although this place got docked a bit for nursing hours, it actually excelled in some of our quality measures.

Short-term Care Quality
This facility's third highest category came in the area of short-term care. In that category, we awarded this facility a grade of C. Our short-term care grades are based on a nursing home's quantity of skilled nursing services. This means a wide scope of services, ranging from registered nurses to physical and occupational therapists, not to mention other variations of therapy. Unfortunately, we found that this facility provided fewer physical therapist and registered nurse hours per resident than most other nursing homes. The last metric we assessed in this area is the percentage of patients who ultimately were able to return home from the nursing home. We found that just 5 percent of this facility's residents returned home. This figure was below the national average.
Long-term Care Quality
The next area we scored is long-term care, ended up being this facility's worst area. We awarded this facility a D in that category. Nursing homes that receive this type of grade in long-term care likely don't provide the type of consistent 24/7 care that some other nursing homes offer. After assessing the volume of care provided by nurses and other staff, we next considered the facility's vaccination record. Unfortunately, this facility vaccinated just 81.066666 percent of its patients against pneumonia. Surprisingly, this nursing home actually fared well at keeping its residents out of the hospital. In fact, it had just 0.01 hospitalizations per one thousand long-term resident days. This is its best score in this category.
