Facility Inspections

Grade: A

In addition to being a quality nursing home overall, this place excelled in our inspections category, where it earned an A. Few facilities performed better in this category. Inspection scores account for a host of factors included in a nursing home's inspection report. One key criteria we rely on is the number and severity of deficiencies. Places with better scores in this category usually have few of these severe deficiencies. We weren't able to find deficiency counts for this nursing home. Without having access to deficiency data for this nursing home, it ended up being difficult to evaluate it in terms of this category.

Nurse Quality

Grade: B-plus

This facility received a very good nursing grade this year as well. It received one of our better scores in that category with a grade of B+. Nursing ratings are heavily correlated with nurse staffing levels. This particular nursing home provided 0.3 hours of nursing care per resident per day. Lastly, we also assessed some nursing quality-based metrics in determining our nursing grades. This place performed very well when it comes to minimizing its residents' pressure ulcers and major falls. We consider these areas to be good indicators of the quality of nursing care.

Short-term Care Quality

Grade: B-plus

Turning to our third area, this facility also received a grade of B+ for its short-term care rating. This is a well above average grade in this category. In computing our short-term care grades, we analyze the nursing home's levels of highly skilled nursing, which includes registered nurses, physical therapists occupational therapists and other highly skilled individuals. This rating is often a reliable measure of a facility's rehabilitation. Fortunately, it looks like this nursing home employs registered nurses. Not all nursing homes employs these skilled professionals. However, according to the data they provided, it does not look like the facility employs physical therapists. The final measure we assessed in this area is the percentage of patients who were able to leave the facility and return to the community. We discovered that 5.5 percent of this nursing home's residents returned home.

Long-term Care Quality

Grade: D

The final area we scored was long-term care, which was a weak spot for this nursing home. We awarded this nursing home a D for long-term care, rendering this the nursing home's weakest area. We would still suggest that you consider all of a nursing home's grades. When nursing homes receive this kind of grade in long-term care it is a bad sign for patient care and it may mean that the nursing home is not as well-staffed. After considering the volume of care provided by nurses and other staff, we next considered the facility's vaccination data. We were concerned by the fact that this nursing home vaccinated just 84.83412 percent of its residents against pneumonia. To our surprise, this place was actually able to limit hospitalizations. With just 0.01 hospitalizations per 1,000 long-term resident days, this nursing home had less hospitalizations than the majority of nursing homes. This is its best score in this category.
