Facility Inspections

Grade: A-minus

While this facility's overall grade was not bad, it really fared well in the category of inspections. In fact, we awarded it a grade of A- for that category, which is one of our best scores. Our inspection scores weigh a host of factors included in a nursing home's inspection reports. One key criteria we look at is the number and severity of deficiencies. Places with better grades in this area tend to have very few of these severe deficiencies. This place was assessed 4 deficiencies on its inspection report, but fortunately none were considered to be severe. This means that the government inspectors didn't deem any of the deficiencies to pose an imminent threat to resident health or safety. We should point out that deficiency-free inspection reports are uncommon in this industry.

Long-term Care Quality

Grade: B

Additionally, we also would like to draw your attention to the fact that this nursing home was given positive long-term care marks this year. We gave them one of our better grades in that area, with a grade of B. This turned out to be the facility's second highest score. When facilities receive this type of grade in long-term care it is usually a good sign for resident care and indicates that the facility is well-staffed with nurses aids. After looking at the volume of care provided by nurses and other staff, we next considered the facility's vaccination statistics. This facility vaccinated 98.62069 percent of its patients for pneumonia, which is far higher than the majority of nursing homes. Clearly, this facility is doing something right in this area as it was able to keep its patients out of the hospital. Indeed, it had only 0.06 hospitalizations per one thousand long-term resident days, which is an impressively low number.

Nurse Quality

Grade: B-minus

We also gave this nursing home a decent score in the category of nursing care, with a grade of B-. Our nursing category analyzes a handful of datapoints, many of which are associated with quantities of nurse staffing. This nursing home averages just 0.4 hours of nursing care per resident per day. This is a very low figure. Finally, nursing ratings also factor in quality-based assessments, such as avoiding major falls. Despite not having the highest total nursing hours, this place actually performed admirably in the metric of preventing major falls. This is generally an indicator that a nursing home has sufficient quality controls in place. Many falls could be avoided if a facility supplies enough nurses to assist its residents.

Short-term Care Quality

Grade: C

Moving on to our last category, this nursing home was awarded a grade of C for short-term care, which we consider to be an acceptable score. Our short-term care ratings are believed to be more meaningful for folks needing a nursing home for rehabilitation. Rehabilitation generally mandates higher levels of highly-skilled nursing. This includes not only nursing, but also physical and respiratory therapy, as well as other forms of therapy. We were not able to find information about this nursing home's registered nurse or physical therapy staffing. The final statistic we assessed in this category is the percentage of residents who were able to leave the facility and return to the community. We discovered that just 4.6 percent of this facility's patients were able to return home, which is below average.
