Facility Inspections
In addition to being a respectable nursing home overall, this place also excelled in the area of inspections, where it received a grade of A+. Few nursing homes performed better in this area. Our inspection grades weigh a host of factors included in a nursing home's inspection reports. One key criteria we consider is the quantity and severity of deficiencies. Places with better grades in this area usually have very few of these severe deficiencies. This nursing home was assessed 2 deficiencies on its inspection report, but fortunately none of the deficiencies were considered to be severe deficiencies. This means that the inspectors didn't deem any of the deficiencies an immediate threat to resident health or safety. A couple of minor deficiencies shouldn't stop you from considering a nursing home.

In a long-term care setting, the primary goal is to keep patients as healthy and safe as possible. This is different than skilled nursing or short-term care where the goal is to rehabilitate patients.

Nurse Quality
Next, we looked at the nursing category where we awarded this nursing home a grade of C, which is a decent grade. Our nursing rating analyzes the nursing home's nurse staffing levels. We look at both the levels of skill of the nurses as well as the quantity of hours spent with patients. This nursing home averages just 0.3 hours of nursing care per resident per day. This is a very low figure. Despite having low quantities of nursing care, this nursing home actually excelled in some of the quality measures we assessed. In fact, it scored well when it comes to avoiding major falls and pressure ulcers.
Short-term Care Quality
This facility's weakest category was short-term care, which is the last category we analyzed. We gave it an F for this category. In spite of some respectable grades in other areas, this grade is still of a concern so we felt obligated to make a note of it. In calculating our short-term care grades, we analyze the nursing home's levels of skilled nursing services, which includes registered nurses, physical therapists respiratory therapists and other types of therapists. This score is frequently a solid assessment of the nursing home's rehabilitation services. With a grade this poor in this area, we weren't surprised to learn this place was well below average in two of the key staffing areas we looked at. The facility supplied substantially fewer physical therapist and registered nurse hours per resident than most other nursing homes. Finally, we considered the percentage of residents who were able to return to the community from this facility. This wasn't a strength for this facility. We found that just 4.5 percent of this facility's patients returned home. At most nursing homes, about half of their residents are able to return home so this is well below average.
