Facility Inspections

The main reason this nursing home received a decent overall grade is its impeccable inspections in recent years. We gave it one of our better scores in that category, with an A. This is a notably better grade than the facility's overall score, which was decent but not in the elite range. Inspection scores account for a host of factors found on a facility's inspection reports. One of the most important criteria we weigh heavily is the quantity and severity of deficiencies. Facilities with better grades in this area tend to have very few of these severe deficiencies. Although this facility had some deficiencies on its report, none were serious based on CMS' scale. Remember that deficiency-free inspections are uncommon in this industry.

Long-term Care Quality

Another one of this facility's more favorable category scores came in the category of long-term care. In that area, we gave this facility a grade of B. It actually fared better than most facilities in this category. Facilities that receive this kind of score in this category typically provide consistent around the clock care to ensure residents are kept in good health. On top of assessing the volume of care provided by nurses and other staff, we looked at the number of residents vaccinated against pneumonia. This facility gave the vaccine to 84.05173 percent of its residents. This is slightly lower than we anticipated but still a respectable figure. While its vaccination rate was a bit lower than we hoped for, at least this place was able to limit hospitalizations. Indeed, it had less than one hospitalization per one thousand long-term resident days, which is a remarkably low figure.

Nurse Quality

One of this facility's better category grades was in the area of nursing care. In that area, we gave this facility a grade of B-. We looked at the qualifications of nurses at the facility, as well as the quantity of time those nurses worked with patients, in computing our score in this area. This facility provided just 0.4 hours of nursing care per resident per day. This is a relatively low total compared to most other facilities. Despite having low quantities of nursing care, this facility surprisingly fared better in some of the quality-based metrics we looked at. In fact, it scored well in the area of avoiding major falls and pressure ulcers.

Short-term Care Quality

Moving on to the last area, we gave this facility a D in our short-term care category. This was the nursing home's weakest category score. Sadly, this category hurt the nursing home's overall grade a bit. Short-term care grades are typically used to measure a facility's performance with rehabilitation. In order to have good rehabilitation services, nursing homes generally must have higher levels of skilled nursing. These types of services include registered nurses, physical therapists, occupational therapists and other types of therapists. We found that this place was below average in terms of its quantity of physical therapy and registered nurse hours offered to its residents based on the data we assessed. The last statistic we considered in this area is the percentage of patients who ultimately were able to return home from the facility. This nursing home struggled quite a bit in this metric as well, with just 4.7 percent of its residents returning home.
