Facility Inspections

Grade: A

The main reason this facility received a decent overall score is its impeccable health inspections in recent years. We gave them one of our better scores in that area, with an A. This is a notably better grade than the facility's overall score, which was decent but not in the elite range. Inspection ratings are based on several items found on the a nursing home's recent inspection reports. Facilities that score well in this area have few deficiencies on their reports. Most importantly, these facilities generally do not have any severe deficiencies which are associated with endangerment of patients. Although this facility had some deficiencies on its report, none were severe based on CMS' deficiency scale. A few minor deficiencies should not lead you to cross a nursing home off your list.

Long-term Care Quality

Grade: B-minus

This nursing home's second most favorable category is long-term care. In that category, we gave this nursing home a B-. In our long-term care rating, we weigh the quantity of services offered by a facility, along with a series of qualitative measures. On top of considering the quantity of care provided by aids and other staff, we also looked at the percentage of residents vaccinated for pneumonia. This nursing home administered the vaccine to 100 percent of its patients. Finally, this facility was also able to limit hospitalizations. Indeed, it had less than one hospitalization per one thousand long-term resident days, which is an impressively low number.

Short-term Care Quality

Grade: C

This nursing home's next best area came in the area of short-term care. In that area, we gave this nursing home a C. Short-term care ratings are based in part on a nursing home's quantity of highly-skilled highly skilled professionals. This means a vast spectrum of nursing services, ranging from registered nurses to physical and speech therapists, not to mention other variations of therapy. This nursing home employs both physical therapists and registered nurses. Not all facilities employ these skilled professionals. Finally, we assessed the number of patients that eventually returned home from this facility. This place performed respectably in this area with 46.2 percent of its residents returning home.

Nurse Quality

Grade: C

The next category we rated is nursing. In that category, we awarded this nursing home a C. Nursing ratings are heavily correlated with quantity of nursing care available. This nursing home provides only 3 hours of nursing care per patient on a daily basis. This is a somewhat discouraging figure as it is well below the national average. Lastly, despite not having the most impressive total nursing hours per resident, this place actually performed admirably in the area of preventing major falls. This is generally an indicator that a facility has quality controls in place.
