Facility Inspections

Grade: A-plus

In addition to being a great facility overall, it also earned A+ inspections recently. Its inspections are nearly flawless. We take several aspects of a facility's inspection report into consideration in calculating our inspection grades. One key factor is deficiencies. You should keep in mind that the severity of the deficiencies is usually more important than the number of deficiencies, as some end up being relatively minor. Although this place had some deficiencies on its government inspection report, none were serious based on CMS' deficiency scale. Finally, this facility had no substantiated complaints this year from residents, which is an excellent sign.

Short-term Care Quality

Grade: A

This facility also was awarded a very strong short-term care grade. Indeed, this is this nursing home's second most impressive category grade. In that category, this facility received a grade of A. With our short-term care rating, we endeavor to forge a sound measure for rehabilitation services. In doing so, we assess the facility's level of highly-skilled nursing services, including both registered nurses and physical therapy, as well as speech therapy. Fortunately, it appear that this nursing home has registered nurses on staff. Not every nursing home employs these skilled professionals. On the other hand, according to the information this nursing home provided, they do not appear to employ physical therapists. Lastly, we looked at the number of residents that ultimately were able to return home from this facility. We found that 5.9 percent of this nursing home's residents returned home.

Long-term Care Quality

Grade: B-plus

The next category we assessed is long-term care. This facility received an impressive long-term care score, with a B+ in this area. Facilities that receive this kind of grade in this category typically provide consistent 24/7 care to make sure patients are kept in good health. Once we concluded our assessment of the quantity of nursing care, we turned to the nursing home's vaccination statistics. This facility vaccinated 100 percent of its residents for pneumonia, which is an impressive figure. Pneumonia can be a life or death condition for nursing home patients so we like it when a nursing home doesn't leave its residents vulnerable. Lastly, this nursing home was able to limit hospitalizations. In fact, it had only 0.01 hospitalizations per 1,000 long-term resident days, which is a remarkably low figure.

Nurse Quality

Grade: B-minus

The final category we analyzed is nursing. In that category, we gave this nursing home a solid grade of B-. This actually ended up being this facility's worst category. When computing a facility's nursing rating, we assess the number of hours nurses are seeing patients and the level of licensure of those nurses. This nursing home provides 0.4 hours of nursing care per resident per day. This is a much lower figure than we are used to seeing. Lastly, our nursing grades also factor in quality-based metrics, such as avoiding major falls. Despite not having the highest total nursing hours per resident, this nursing home performed admirably in the metric of preventing major falls. This is generally an indicator that a nursing home has quality controls in place. Some falls could be avoided if a nursing home supplies enough nurses aids to assist its patients.
