Facility Inspections

Grade: A

This nursing home received a strong overall grade as described above, but we especially wanted to emphasize its excellent government inspections in recent years. We gave it an A in this area. These inspection ratings weigh several factors, including deficiencies, substantiated complaints and federal fines. You can learn more about each of these factors by reviewing copies of nursing homes' inspection reports. While this place had some minor dings on its government inspection report, it had no severe deficiencies. Severe deficiencies are those labeled as categories G through L. This tells you the inspectors did not consider any of the deficiencies on this facility's report to pose an imminent threat to patient safety or health. Finally, this facility had no substantiated complaints this year from residents, which is an excellent sign.

Long-term Care Quality

Grade: B

This facility received an impressive long-term care score as well. We gave it one of our higher grades in that category with a grade of B. Long-term care ratings in this range generally require both around the clock care from nurses and aids, as well as quality routine medical care. In addition to considering the amount of care provided by aids and other staff, we looked at the percentage of residents vaccinated against pneumonia. This facility gave the vaccine to 12.500003 percent of its patients, which is a few points lower than we expected. While its vaccination rate was a bit lower than we had hoped, this nursing home was able to limit hospitalizations. Indeed, it had less than one hospitalization per one thousand long-term resident days, which is a remarkably low number.

Short-term Care Quality

Grade: B-minus

The next highest area we gave this facility in any area came in the category of short-term care, where we awarded it a grade of B-. Short-term care scores are meaningful for individuals needing rehabilitation. Rehabilitation typically utilizes higher levels of highly-skilled nursing services. Skilled nursing includes a vast scope of nursing services, ranging from registered nurses to physical and occupational therapists, as well as other types of therapy. We weren't able to find information about this nursing home's registered nurse or physical therapy staffing. The last item we looked at in this category is the number of patients who ultimately returned home from the facility. We found that just 0 percent of this facility's residents returned home.

Nurse Quality

Grade: B-minus

Switching gears to our last category, this facility was given a grade of B- in nursing, which is a respectable rating. Our nursing grade is based on several factors. The most heavily weighted variable is the amount of time nurses spend with residents. This particular facility provided just 0.2 hours of nursing care per resident daily. This figure is significantly below the national average. Lastly, although this place got docked a bit for nursing hours per resident, it excelled in some of our quality measures. With fewer than five percent of its residents sustaining pressure ulcers, it did well in this area.
