Facility Inspections

Grade: A

On top of earning a strong overall grade, this facility performed even better in the area of inspections which is associated with the nursing home's recent inspection reports. In fact, we gave it an A for that area, which is one of our best grades. Inspection grades account for a host of factors included in a nursing home's inspection reports. One key criteria we consider is the number and severity of deficiencies. Places with better grades in this category tend to have very few of these severe deficiencies. This nursing home received 4 deficiencies on its inspection report, but none were considered to be severe. This means that CMS did not consider any of the deficiencies to create an immediate threat to resident safety or health. We should point out that deficiency-free inspections are rare in this industry.

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. Our nursing rating weighs many components, many of which are associated with nursing hours. This nursing home averages 0.4 hours of nursing care per resident per day. Finally, our nursing grades also factor in quality-based assessments, such as avoiding major falls. This nursing home performed well in this area. Avoiding major falls is typically a good indicator that a nursing home has reliable quality controls in place. Major falls can generally be prevented if more nurses aids and better safety protocols are in place.

Long-term Care Quality

Grade: B

The next category we assessed was long-term care. This nursing home was awarded a very positive long-term care grade, with a B in this category. Nursing homes that receive this kind of grade in this category tend to provide consistent 24/7 care to make sure residents are kept in good health. Once we finished looking at the amount of care provided by nurses, we then looked at the nursing home's vaccination record. This facility vaccinated 100 percent of its patients for pneumonia, which is very impressive. Pneumonia tragically can be a life or death health condition for nursing home residents so we prefer when a nursing home does not leave this to chance. Finally, this nursing home was able to limit hospitalizations. Indeed, it had only 0.04 hospitalizations per 1,000 long-term resident days, which is a remarkably low figure.

Short-term Care Quality

Grade: B-minus

The next category we scored was short-term care. We gave this nursing home a grade of B- in that category. Short-term care ratings are based on a facility's quantity of highly-skilled skilled healthcare professionals. This includes a vast spectrum of services, ranging from registered nurses to physical and occupational therapists, as well as other forms of therapy. Fortunately, it looks like this facility has registered nurses on staff. Not every nursing home employs these skilled professionals. However, according to the information they provided, it does not look like the facility employs physical therapists. The final metric we looked at in this area is the number of patients who were able to leave the nursing home and return home. We discovered that just 4.6 percent of this facility's residents were able to return home, which is actually below average.
