Facility Inspections

Grade: A-plus

In addition to being a respectable nursing home overall, this facility really excelled in the area of inspections, where it received an A+. Few nursing homes performed better in this category. Perhaps the most significant factor we look at in determining our inspection ratings is deficiencies. These deficiencies can be found on a facility's inspection reports. Nursing homes with higher grades in this area most likely dodged the more severe deficiencies involving patient abuse or death. While this place had a few deficiencies on its government inspection report, none were serious based on CMS' scale. Finally, this facility had no substantiated complaints this year from residents, which is an excellent sign.

Long-term Care Quality

Grade: B

In addition, we also wanted to point out that this nursing home received positive long-term care marks this year. We gave them one of our more favorable grades in this category, with a B. This proved to be the facility's second strongest grade. Nursing homes that excel in this category typically are well-staffed and provide extensive hands on care to residents. On top of looking at the quantity of care provided by aids and other staff, we analyzed the percentage of residents vaccinated for pneumonia. This nursing home provided the vaccine to 99.26471 percent of its residents, which is what we like to see. Pneumonia sadly is often a life threatening health condition for nursing home patients so we strongly prefer when a nursing home doesn't leave this to chance. Finally, 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.

Short-term Care Quality

Grade: C

This nursing home's third most favorable category was short-term care. In that category, we gave this nursing home a C. In determining our short-term care grades, we analyze a nursing home's levels of skilled nursing services, which includes registered nurses, physical therapists respiratory therapists and other types of therapists. This grade is frequently a useful measure of a nursing home's rehabilitation. Unfortunately, it doesn't appear that this facility provided registered nurse or physical therapist staffing data. The final item we considered in this category is the percentage of patients who eventually returned home from the facility. We found that just 0 percent of this facility's patients returned home. Unfortunately, this was below the national average.

Nurse Quality

Grade: F

Turning to our last area, this nursing home didn't fare very well. With a rock bottom grade of F in nursing, this is this facility's weakest category. There are quite a few factors included in this area. Many of these subcategories are tied to staffing levels. This facility provided just 0.3 hours of nursing care per resident per day. This is a very low total compared to most nursing homes. Finally, we also assessed some nursing quality-based metrics in computing our nursing grades. This nursing home fared well when it comes to avoiding pressure ulcers and major falls. Many consider these data points to be good indicators of the quality of nursing care.
