Facility Inspections

Grade: A

The main reason this nursing home received a decent overall score is its impeccable health inspections in recent years. We awarded it one of our better grades in that category, with an A. This is a notably better score than the place's overall score, which was decent but certainly not elite. Arguably the most important factor we look at in calculating our inspection grades is deficiencies. Deficiencies are found on a nursing home's recent inspection reports. Places with higher grades in this category most likely dodged the most severe deficiencies involving patient abuse or death. It does not look like we were able to find information on deficiency's for this nursing home. Without all of the deficiency related data for this facility, it was challenging to fully grade it in this category.

Nurse Quality

Grade: B-minus

One of the other reasons we graded this nursing home so highly is that it received a very impressive nursing rating. In that category, we awarded this facility a grade of B-. Our nursing rating is mostly associated with a nursing home's level of nurse staffing. This place averages 0.4 hours of nursing care per patient daily, which is not an impressive total. Despite having low quantities of nursing care, this facility actually fared better in some of the quality-based metrics we looked at. It scored well when it comes to minimizing its residents' major falls and pressure ulcers.

Long-term Care Quality

Grade: C

The next area we looked at was long-term care. In that area, we awarded this nursing home a decent grade of C. In the category of long-term care, we analyze the quantity of care provided by a nursing home, as opposed to more healthcare-oriented services. On top of looking at the amount of care provided by nurses aids and other staff, we also looked at the number of residents vaccinated for pneumonia. This nursing home vaccinated 100 percent of its patients. Finally, this facility was also able to limit hospitalizations. It had only 0 hospitalizations per one thousand long-term resident days, which is an impressively low number.

Short-term Care Quality

Grade: F

Switching gears to our next area, this nursing home did not perform well. Due to a bottom of the barrel grade of F in short-term care, this was this facility's poorest category. In the area of short-term care, we endeavor to evaluate indicators of a nursing home's rehabilitation. We look at a nursing home's skilled nursing services, including the ones performed by registered nurses and physical, occupational and other therapists. With a grade this poor in this area, we were not stunned to discover that this nursing home was below average in several staffing areas we focus on. The facility offered far fewer physical therapist and registered nurse hours per patient than most other facilities. The last metric we looked at in this area is the number of residents who eventually returned home from the nursing home. This facility struggled quite a bit in this metric as well, with just 3.6 percent of its residents returning home.
