Nurse Quality

Grade: A-minus

In addition to receiving a strong overall score, this nursing home performed well in our nursing category. In fact, we gave it a grade of A- for that category, which is one of our highest scores. There are several subcategories within this category. Many of the subcategories relate to the quantity and quality of nurse staffing. This nursing home averages 0.4 hours of nursing care per resident per day. Lastly, we also looked at some nursing quality-based metrics in determining our nursing grades. This facility performed very well in the area of minimizing its residents' major falls and pressure ulcers. We consider these areas to be good indicators of the quality of nursing care.

Long-term Care Quality

Grade: B

Additionally, this facility also received favorable long-term care grades this year. Indeed, we gave it one of our more favorable scores in that category, with a score of B. Nursing homes that excel in this category typically are well-staffed and provide extensive hands on care to patients. After we finished looking at the amount of nursing care, we then looked at the nursing home's vaccination records. This facility vaccinated 99.72752 percent of its patients for pneumonia, which is what we like to see. Pneumonia sadly is often a deadly condition for nursing home patients so we prefer when a facility does not leave its residents vulnerable. Clearly, this facility is doing something right in this area as it was able to keep its residents out of the hospital. In fact, it had only 0.01 hospitalizations per one thousand long-term resident days, which is a remarkably low figure.

Facility Inspections

Grade: B-minus

This facility received a good score in the area of inspections as well. In fact, we awarded it a B- for that category, which is one of our better scores. Inspection ratings weigh several factors included in a nursing home's inspection report. One key criteria we consider is the number and severity of deficiencies. Although this place had some deficiencies on its inspection report, none of them were severe based on CMS' scale. A few relatively minor deficiencies are not necessarily something to panic about.

Short-term Care Quality

Grade: B-minus

Turning to our last area, this facility was given a grade of B- for short-term care, which is an acceptable score. In determining our short-term care grades, we analyze the nursing home's levels of skilled nursing, which includes registered nurses, physical therapists occupational therapists and other types of therapists. This score is more often than not a reliable measure of the nursing home's ability to rehabilitate patients. Fortunately, it appear that this nursing home employs registered nurses. Not all nursing homes employs these types of nurses. On the other hand, based on the information they provided, it does not look like the facility employs physical therapists. Lastly, we considered the percentage of residents that returned home from this facility. We found that 4 percent of this facility's patients were able to return home. This figure was actually quite a bit below average.
