Facility Inspections

Grade: A-plus

On top of being a first rate nursing home overall, this facility also performed well in the area of inspections, where it received an A+. Few places fared this well in this area. Our inspection ratings weigh a host of factors found on a nursing home's inspection reports. One of the most important criteria we weigh heavily is the number and severity of deficiencies. Nursing homes with better grades in this area tend to have very few severe deficiencies. Although this nursing home had some deficiencies on its inspection report, none were severe based on CMS' deficiency scale. Finally, this facility had no substantiated complaints this year from residents, which is an excellent sign.

Long-term Care Quality

Grade: A-plus

In addition, this facility was given high marks in the area of long-term care. As a result, it was given one of our best scores in that area with a score of A+. Facilities that receive this type of grade in this category tend to provide consistent 24/7 care to ensure patients are well cared for. Once we looked at the volume of care provided by aids and other staff, we turned to the nursing home's vaccination statistics. This facility vaccinated 100 percent of its residents against pneumonia, which is far higher than the average nursing home. Clearly, this facility is doing something right in this area as it also excelled at keeping its residents out of the hospital. It had only 0.02 hospitalizations per 1,000 long-term resident days, which is an impressively low figure.

Nurse Quality

Grade: B-minus

This facility's next best category grade came in the area of nursing. In that category, we gave this nursing home a grade of B-. This wasn't quite on par with some of its other category grades mentioned above. In determining our nursing ratings, we look at both staffing levels and the skill levels of the nurses. This facility provided just 0.4 hours of nursing care per patient daily. This is a low total compared with most facilities. Lastly, despite not having the most impressive total nursing hours per resident, this nursing home performed admirably in the metric of preventing major falls. This is often a good indicator that a facility has quality controls in place.

Short-term Care Quality

Grade: D

This facility's weakest category is short-term care, which is the last area we assessed. For this area, we awarded this nursing home a grade of just D. We would like to to point out this possible weak spot, however, you should not over-emphasize a single weak area either. Our short-term care ratings are based in part on a nursing home's quantity of highly-skilled skilled healthcare professionals. This means a broad scope of services, ranging from registered nurses to physical and occupational therapists, in addition to other types of therapy. In this nursing home's case, we found that it provides less physical therapist and registered nurse hours per resident than the average facility. Finally, we assessed the percentage of residents who were able to return to the community from this facility. This definitely was not a strength for this nursing home. We found that just 4.8 percent of this nursing home's residents returned home. At most nursing homes, about half of their patients are able to return home so this is well below average.
