Facility Inspections

Grade: A

On top of being a quality nursing home overall, this facility really excelled in the area of inspections, where it earned an A. Not many facilities performed better in that area. Perhaps the most important factor we look at in computing our inspection scores is deficiencies. These deficiencies can be found on a facility's inspection reports. Places with better scores in this category typically avoided the more severe deficiencies involving health risks or even death. This place was hit with 4 deficiencies on its inspection report, but we were relieved to see that none of the deficiencies were considered to be severe deficiencies. This tells you that CMS did not consider any of the deficiencies to be an imminent risk to patient safety or health. A few relatively minor deficiencies are not something to panic about.

Short-term Care Quality

Grade: A-minus

Adding to this facility's list of achievements, it also received a first-rate short-term care score. We gave them an impressive grade of A- in this category. Short-term care ratings are critical for prospective residents in need of rehabilitation. Rehabilitation typically requires additional skilled nursing. Skilled nursing means a wide range of nursing services, spanning from registered nurses to physical and respiratory therapists, as well as other forms of therapy. Fortunately, it appear that this nursing home has registered nurses on staff. Not all facilities employs these skilled professionals. However, according to the information they provided, it does not look like the facility employs physical therapists. Finally, we assessed the number of residents who were able to return to the community from this facility. We found that 5.2 percent of this nursing home's patients returned home.

Nurse Quality

Grade: B

This facility received a very good nursing grade this year as well. It received one of our better scores in that category with a grade of B. When computing a nursing home's nursing grade, we assess the amount of time nurses are caring for patients as well as the level of skill of the nurses. This particular nursing home provided 0.4 hours of nursing care per resident per day. Lastly, we also looked at some nursing quality measures in determining our nursing grades. This place performed very well when it comes to minimizing its residents' pressure ulcers and major falls. We consider these areas to be good indicators of the quality of nursing care.

Long-term Care Quality

Grade: D

The next area we scored is long-term care, which ended up being this facility's least impressive category. We gave this nursing home a grade of D in that category. Of course, this score pulled down the facility's overall grade to a certain degree. For long-term care residents, the primary objective is to maintain residents' quality of life and keep them safe. On top of looking at the quantity of care provided by nurses aids and other staff, we analyzed the percentage of residents vaccinated for pneumonia. This facility administered the vaccine to 100 percent of its residents. To our surprise, this place was able to keep its patients out of the hospital. It had only 0 hospitalizations per one thousand long-term resident days. Unfortunately, some of its other scores in the category weren't as favorable as these.
