Short-term Care Quality

Grade: A-minus

This nursing home really excelled in our short-term care rating, with an impressive grade of A- in this category. Our short-term care grades are arguably more meaningful for patients requiring rehabilitation from their nursing home. Rehabilitation typically utilizes more skilled nursing services. This means not only nursing, but also physical and respiratory therapy, as well as other types of therapy. Fortunately, it looks like this nursing home has registered nurses on staff. Not all facilities employs these skilled professionals. On the other hand, according to the data this nursing home provided, they do not appear to employ physical therapists. Lastly, we assessed the percentage of residents that were able to return home from this nursing home. We found that 6 percent of this facility's patients returned home.

Nurse Quality

Grade: B

We also wanted to emphasize the fact that this nursing home earned an B in nursing. Nursing grades are mostly associated with a nursing home's level of nurse staffing. This particular nursing home provided 0.4 hours of nursing care per resident per day. Finally, we also looked at several nursing quality-based metrics and this nursing home excelled in some of these areas. With less than five percent of its residents sustaining pressure ulcers, it performed as well as any place the country in this category. This is generally a good indicator of quality nursing care. Pressure ulcers can many times be prevented by providing better nursing care, such as by employing a policy of moving a patient more frequently.

Facility Inspections

Grade: D

Moving on to inspections, we gave this nursing home a grade of just D for this category. This was one of this nursing home's weaker links. Our inspection grades account for several factors included in a facility's inspection reports. Generally, you should be especially cautious when considering a nursing home that has severe deficiencies on its inspection reports. This particular facility was assessed a deficiency by CMS. Fortunately, it was not in one of the categories that suggest that it caused a risk to resident health or safety. Finally, we need to point out that this place was assessed significant government fines of more than $100,000. This generally means that a nursing home's poor track record spanned several years.

Long-term Care Quality

Grade: F

Turning to the next area, this facility really did not fare well. Due to an abysmal grade of F in long-term care, this is this facility's weakest category grade. Nursing homes that don't score well in long-term care often do not provide as much nursing care and also may be lagging in some of the areas of routine medical care we looked at. Once we looked at the quantity of care provided by nurses and other staff, we then analyzed the nursing home's vaccination statistics. Candidly, we were a bit worried that this nursing home vaccinated 26.460482 percent of its patients against pneumonia, which is several points below average. Surprisingly, this place actually fared well at keeping its patients out of the hospital. It had only 0 hospitalizations per one thousand long-term resident days. This is its best feature in this category.
