Facility Inspections

Grade: A-plus

We also wanted to emphasize that this nursing home has received near flawless health inspections in recent years. We awarded them an impressive grade of A+ in this area. Our inspection ratings account for several factors included in a nursing home's inspection reports. One of the most important criteria we weigh heavily is the quantity and severity of deficiencies. Nursing homes with higher scores in this area generally have few of these severe deficiencies. It does not look like we have deficiency data for this facility. Finally, this facility had no substantiated complaints this year from residents, which is an excellent sign.

Long-term Care Quality

Grade: A

Among the reasons we graded this nursing home so favorably is that it was given a strong long-term care grade. In fact, long-term care is its second most favorable category grade. In that area, we awarded this nursing home a score of A. When nursing homes receive a score in this range in long-term care it typically means it has plenty of staff and is a quality place to live on a permanent basis. After considering the amount of care provided by nurses and other staff, we next considered the facility's vaccination records. This facility vaccinated 100 percent of its residents for pneumonia, which is much higher than the average nursing home. Lastly, this facility was able to limit hospitalizations. It had less than one hospitalization per 1,000 long-term resident days, which is an impressively low number.

Short-term Care Quality

Grade: B-minus

We also gave this nursing home a middle of the pack grade in the area of short-term care, where it received a B-. Our short-term care scores are probably most critical for individuals in need of a nursing home for rehabilitation. Rehabilitation usually utilizes more skilled nursing services. Skilled nursing includes not just nursing, but also physical and speech therapy, as well as other variations of therapy. Fortunately, it looks like this facility has registered nurses on staff. Not all nursing homes employs these types of nurses. On the other hand, according to the data they provided, they do not appear to employ physical therapists. The last datapoint we considered in this category is the number of patients that ultimately were able to return home from the facility. We found that just 5 percent of this nursing home's residents returned home.

Nurse Quality

Grade: C

Turning to the fourth category, this facility was awarded a decent nursing score. Although this was not quite as good as many of its other scores, this is still not a poor grade. Our nursing grade is largely tied to the facility's nurse staffing. This nursing home provided just 0.3 hours of nursing care per patient daily. This figure is significantly below average. While this place ranked poorly in terms of the quantity of nursing care available, it performed admirably in a few of our quality measures. In fact, it was above average in two of the statistics we assess, with good scores for minimizing its residents' pressure ulcers and major falls.
