Facility Inspections
In addition to being a respectable nursing home overall, this facility also excelled in the category of inspections, where it received a grade of A-. Few facilities performed better in this category. Our inspection grades are based on items located in the a nursing home's recent inspection reports. Places that score well in this category typically have very few deficiencies on their reports. Most importantly, these nursing homes generally do not have any severe deficiencies which are associated with risks to patient safety. This particular nursing home received 2 deficiencies on its inspection report. Finally, this facility had no substantiated complaints this year from residents, which is always a good sign.
Long-term Care Quality
We also gave this facility a strong grade in long-term care. This nursing home received a grade of B+ in this area, which happens to be one of our more impressive scores. Facilities that receive this type of score in long-term care tend to provide consistent around the clock care to make sure residents are well cared for. In addition to assessing the amount of care provided by nurses and other staff, we looked at the number of residents vaccinated against pneumonia. This nursing home gave the vaccine to 100 percent of its patients. Vaccines are vital to keeping residents out of the hospital. This facility also excelled at keeping its patients out of the hospital. Indeed, it had only 1.64 hospitalizations per one thousand long-term resident days.
Short-term Care Quality
Sadly, this facility's next best category is short-term care. However, with a D in this area, it still fared somewhat badly. With our short-term care category, we seek to create a fair barometer for rehabilitation services. In this process, we analyze the facility's offerings of skilled nursing services, including both registered nurses and physical therapy, as well as speech therapy. With a grade this poor in this area, we were not surprised to learn that this place was below average in many staffing metrics we looked at. The nursing home supplied significantly fewer physical therapist and registered nurse hours per patient than most nursing homes. Finally, we looked at the percentage of residents who were able to return to the community from this nursing home. This was not a strength for this facility. We found that just 42.5 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.
Nurse Quality
This nursing home's least impressive area is nursing, which is the final category we scored. It received an abysmal F for this category. Even with several acceptable scores in other areas, this grade is still concerning so we felt obligated to make sure you are aware. When determining a nursing home's nursing score, we weigh the number of hours nurses are seeing patients as well as the levels of training of the nurses. This nursing home provided only 3.3 hours of nursing care per patient on a daily basis. This is not a very impressive figure. Unfortunately, this place also had abysmal scores in some of the quality-based measures to go along with its low nursing hour totals. We looked at the percentage of patients sustaining pressure ulcers and we were very disappointed. This place was at approximately 1.5 times the national average in this area.
