Facility Inspections

Grade: A

To pair with its relatively modest overall grade, we awarded this facility an A for our inspections rating. This is far more impressive than its overall grade. These inspection ratings weigh several factors, including deficiencies and substantiated complaints. You can find more information about each of these items by obtaining copies of nursing homes' inspection reports. Although this place had a few deficiencies on its inspection report, none were serious based on CMS' deficiency scale. The fact that none of the deficiencies were severe made us feel better about this inspection report.

Short-term Care Quality

Grade: B

This facility also was given an impressive short-term care grade. In fact, we awarded them a B in that area, which is one of our more favorable scores. Our short-term care grade is often used to judge a nursing home's rehabilitation services. To have highly graded rehabilitation services, facilities generally need to provide better levels of skilled nursing services. These types of services include registered nurses, physical therapists, speech therapists and other types of therapists. Fortunately, it appear that this facility has registered nurses on staff. Not all nursing homes employs these types of nurses. On the other hand, according to the information they provided, they do not appear to employ physical therapists. Finally, we assessed the percentage of patients who were able to return to the community from this facility. We found that 6.1 percent of this nursing home's patients returned home.

Long-term Care Quality

Grade: C

We also awarded this facility a decent score in the category of long-term care, where we awarded it a grade of C. Long-term care scores are meaningful for people in need of personal care. After considering the volume of care provided by nurses and other staff, we then looked at the facility's vaccination records. We were a bit alarmed this facility vaccinated 90.8297 percent of its patients against pneumonia, which happens to be several points below the national average. Nevertheless, this facility excelled at keeping its patients out of the hospital. It had less than one hospitalization per one thousand long-term resident days, which is a remarkably low number.

Nurse Quality

Grade: C

Turning to the fourth area, this facility was awarded a decent nursing grade of C. Our nursing grade looks at the facility's level of nurse staffing. We factor in both the levels of licensure of those nurses and the quantity of hours spent with patients. This particular facility provided just 0.3 hours of nursing care per patient daily. This figure is far below average. Despite having low quantities of nursing care, this facility fared better in some of the quality measures we assessed. It performed well in terms of minimizing its residents' major falls and pressure ulcers.
