Short-term Care Quality

Grade: A

This facility really excelled in our short-term care category, with an A in this area. Our short-term care scores are believed to be more meaningful for residents needing a nursing home for rehabilitation. Rehabilitation typically mandates additional skilled nursing. This includes not just nursing, but also physical and respiratory therapy, as well as other forms of therapy. Unfortunately, it doesn't appear that this facility submitted registered nurse or physical therapist staffing data. The last metric we considered in this category is the number of patients that ultimately were able to return home from the facility. We found that 7 percent of this nursing home's residents returned home as opposed to remaining at the facility on a permanent basis.

Facility Inspections

Grade: A-minus

Inspections is another category where this facility excelled. In fact, we gave this facility an A- for our inspections rating. Arguably the most critical factor we look at in computing our inspection grades is deficiencies. These deficiencies can be found on a facility's recent inspection reports. Nursing homes with higher scores in this area typically dodged the more severe deficiencies involving health risks or even death. This nursing home received 4 deficiencies on its inspection report, but fortunately none were considered severe. This tells you that the inspectors did not consider any of the deficiencies to cause an imminent risk to resident health or safety. A few relatively minor deficiencies aren't necessarily something to panic about.

Nurse Quality

Grade: C

The next highest grade we gave this nursing home in any area came in the category of nursing, where we gave it a grade of C. Our nursing rating is based on the nursing home's level of nurse staffing. We weigh both the levels of skill of those nurses as well as the quantity of hours spent with patients. This nursing home averages just 0 hours of nursing care per resident per day. This is a very low figure. Finally, nursing scores also factor in quality-based metrics, such as preventing major falls. Despite not having the most impressive total nursing hours per resident, this nursing home actually performed admirably in the area of preventing major falls. This is generally an indicator that a place has sufficient quality controls in place. Some falls could be avoided if a nursing home provides enough nurses aids to assist its patients.

Long-term Care Quality

Grade: F

Switching gears to our last category, this facility really did not fare very well. With a bottom of the barrel grade of F in long-term care, this was this facility's worst grade. For long-term care residents, the primary goal is to keep patients as healthy and safe as possible. This is different than skilled nursing or short-term care where the goal is to rehabilitate residents. In addition to considering the volume of care provided by nurses aids and other staff, we looked at the number of residents vaccinated for pneumonia. Fortunately, this facility vaccinated 98.07692 percent of its residents, which is a very solid statistic. To our surprise, this place was able to limit hospitalizations. With only 0 hospitalizations per 1,000 long-term resident days, this nursing home had fewer hospitalizations than many nursing homes. Unfortunately, some of its other scores in this category were not as favorable as these.
