Facility Inspections

Grade: A

This facility received a solid overall grade as described above, but we really wanted to point out its nearly flawless government inspections in recent years. We awarded them an impressive grade of A in this category. These inspection ratings weigh several factors, including deficiencies and federal fines. You can find more information about each of these items by obtaining copies of nursing homes' inspection reports. This particular nursing home received 4 deficiencies on its inspection report. Finally, this facility had no substantiated complaints this year from residents, which is always a good sign.

Long-term Care Quality

Grade: A-minus

This nursing home also performed well in the area of long-term care. For this reason, we gave it a grade of A- for that category, which happens to be one of our best grades. For long-term care residents, the facility's primary objective is to keep patients healthy and safe. This is different than skilled nursing or short-term care where the goal is to rehabilitate patients. One of the datapoints we considered on top of nurse's aid hours was vaccines. This nursing home provided the pneumonia vaccine to 58.333332 percent of its residents. Clearly, this facility is doing something right in this area as it also excelled at keeping its patients out of the hospital. In fact, it had only 0.04 hospitalizations per one thousand long-term resident days, which is a remarkably low number.

Short-term Care Quality

Grade: F

Another issue was the F this nursing home was given in the category of short-term care. In forming these short-term care ratings, we assess the nursing home's skilled nursing services, such as those performed by registered nurses, occupational therapists, physical therapists and other types of skilled professionals. The purpose is to formulate a barometer for sizing up the rehabilitation services of various nursing homes. With its score in this area, we were not surprised to find that this facility was well below average in terms of the quantity of registered nurse and physical therapy hours provided to its patients based on the metrics we looked at. Frankly, this was about what we expected to find. Finally, we looked at the number of residents that returned home from this facility. This nursing home didn't fare well here either. In fact, we found that just 4.6 percent of this facility's patients were able to return home. This figure was well off the national average.

Nurse Quality

Grade: F

This nursing home's worst area is nursing, which is the last category we looked at. Sadly, it received an abysmal F for this category. In spite of several decent scores in other areas, this grade is nevertheless disappointing so we would like to to make a note of it. Our nursing score analyzes several components, but the main one is the quantity of nurse hours per patient per week. This facility provided a meager 0.3 hours of nursing care per resident per day. To pair with its low totals in the area of nursing hours per resident, this place also did not perform as well in the quality-based measures we looked at in determining our nursing ratings. We looked at the percent of residents sustaining pressure ulcers and major falls. This facility had more pressure ulcers and falls than the average nursing home.
