Facility Inspections

Grade: A-minus

We want to point out that this nursing home outperformed its overall score in the category of inspections. In fact, it received an excellent inspection report this year. As a result, we gave it one of our best scores in that area with an A-. Inspection scores account for several factors found on a facility's inspection reports. One of the most important criteria we weigh heavily is the quantity and severity of deficiencies. Nursing homes with higher grades in this category generally have very few of these severe deficiencies. Fortunately, although this facility had some minor dings on its government inspection report, it had zero severe deficiencies. Severe deficiencies are found in categories G, H, I, J, K and L. This tells you that the government inspectors did not deem any of the deficiencies on this facility's report to pose an imminent threat to patient safety or health. The fact that the deficiencies were relatively minor made us feel better about this inspection report.

Short-term Care Quality

Grade: B

In addition, we also would like to draw your attention to the fact that this facility was given positive short-term care marks in this assessment. We awarded them one of our more impressive grades in this area, with a grade of B. This proved to be the facility's second highest score. In determining our short-term care ratings, we look at the facility's levels of skilled nursing services, which includes registered nurses, physical therapists occupational therapists and other highly trained professionals. This score is more often than not a solid assessment of the facility's rehabilitation. Unfortunately, it does not look like this nursing home provided registered nurse or physical therapist staffing data. Lastly, we assessed the number of patients who were able to return to the community from this nursing home. We found that 5.8 percent of this nursing home's patients returned home.

Nurse Quality

Grade: C

Next, we looked at the nursing category where we awarded this nursing home a grade of C, which is a decent grade. Our nursing grade features a host of subcategories. The most important variable is the number of hours nurses spend with patients. This facility provided just 0.3 hours of nursing care per resident per day. This is a relatively low total compared to most other facilities. Finally, we also looked at some nursing quality-based metrics. Although this nursing home got dinged a bit for its nursing hours, it excelled in a few of these quality measures. With fewer than five percent of its residents suffering from pressure ulcers, it fared very well in this area. This is often an indicator of quality nursing care. Pressure ulcers can often be prevented by providing better nursing care, such as by having a policy of moving a patient more frequently.

Long-term Care Quality

Grade: C

Moving on to our next area, this nursing home received a decent long-term care score of C. In computing these long-term care scores, we quantify the nursing home's personal care services. Once we assessed the amount of care provided by nurses and other staff, we turned to the facility's vaccination record. We were pleased to learn that this facility vaccinated 99.38461 percent of its patients for pneumonia. This place also excelled at keeping its patients out of the hospital. It had less than one hospitalization per one thousand long-term resident days, which is an impressively low figure.
