Finally, we also assessed several nursing quality-based metrics and this place excelled in some of these areas. With less than five percent of its residents sustaining pressure ulcers, it performed as well as any nursing home the country in this category. This is generally a good indicator of quality nursing care. Pressure ulcers can generally be prevented by offering better nursing care, such as employing a system of turning a patient even once per day.

It had less than one hospitalization per 1,000 long-term resident days, which is an impressively low number.

Facility Inspections

Grade: C

In the final category of government inspections, we gave this nursing home a C for this category. Our inspection ratings weigh several factors found on a nursing home's inspection report. One of the most important criteria we weigh heavily is the quantity and severity of deficiencies. This facility was hit with 3 deficiencies on its inspection report, but we were relieved to find that none were in categories G through L. This tells you that inspectors didn't consider any of the deficiencies to present an imminent risk to patient safety or health. We didn't find anything on this facility's inspection reports to be overly alarming.
