Facility Inspections

Grade: A-plus

This nursing home received a quality overall score as described above, but we especially would like to emphasize its excellent health inspections in recent years. We gave them an A+ in this area. We take several aspects of a facility's inspection report into consideration in computing these inspection grades. One critical factor is health deficiencies. You should keep in mind that the severity of these deficiencies is usually more important than the quantity of deficiencies, as some can be quite insignificant. While this facility had some deficiencies on its government inspection report, none were major deficiencies based on CMS' deficiency scale. A few relatively minor dings are not the end of the world.

Long-term Care Quality

Grade: B-plus

This facility also was given an impressive long-term care score. Indeed, we gave it an above average score of B+ in this category. Nursing homes that do well in long-term care typically provide patients with more supervision and stay on top of routine medical care. On top of looking at the amount of care provided by nurses aids and other staff, we looked at the percentage of residents vaccinated for pneumonia. This facility provided the vaccine to 100 percent of its patients. Vaccines are vital to keeping patients out of the hospital. Clearly, this place is doing something right in this area as it was able to keep its patients out of the hospital. It had only 0.01 hospitalizations per 1,000 long-term resident days, which is a remarkably low figure.

Short-term Care Quality

Grade: B

Turning to our next category, this nursing home also earned a grade of B for its short-term care rating. This is an above average score in this category. Our short-term care ratings are presumably more critical for patients needing rehabilitation services. Rehabilitation usually utilizes more skilled nursing. This includes not just nursing, but also physical and speech therapy, as well as other forms of therapy. Fortunately, it appear that this nursing home has registered nurses on staff. Not every facility employs these types of nurses. On the other hand, based on the information they provided, they do not appear to employ physical therapists. Lastly, we looked at the percentage of residents that who were able to eventually return home from this facility. We found that 0 percent of this nursing home's patients were able to return home.

Nurse Quality

Grade: D

The next category we assessed was nursing, proved to be this nursing home's worst category. We awarded this facility a D in this category. This was one of the few dings of a quality profile. In calculating a nursing home's nursing grade, we assess the amount of time nurses are caring for residents as well as the level of skill of those nurses. This facility averaged a meager 0.3 hours of nursing care per patient per day. This is an alarmingly low total. Lastly, we also looked at some nursing quality-based metrics in calculating our nursing grades. This facility performed well in the area of avoiding major falls and pressure ulcers.
