Facility Inspections

Grade: A-plus

To pair with a favorable overall score, we awarded this place an A+ for our inspection category. Arguably the most important factor we consider in computing our inspection ratings is deficiencies. These deficiencies can be found on a nursing home's inspection reports. Places with better grades in this area typically dodged the most severe deficiencies involving things like patient abuse. We were not able to find deficiency counts for this nursing home. We would like to have more information about this facility. Without having access to all of the deficiency related data, it was difficult to evaluate this nursing home in the inspections category.

Short-term Care Quality

Grade: A

This nursing home was awarded strong scores in the area of short-term care as well. Indeed, we awarded it one of our strongest scores in that area with a score of A. Short-term care grades are commonly employed to assess a facility's rehabilitation services. In order to provide quality rehabilitation services, nursing homes generally need to have better levels of skilled nursing. These types of services include registered nurses, physical therapists, occupational therapists and other highly skilled individuals. Fortunately, it looks like this nursing home has registered nurses on staff. Not every facility employs these skilled professionals. However, based on the data this nursing home provided, it does not look like the facility employs physical therapists. The final metric we assessed in this area is the number of patients who were able to leave the nursing home and return to the community. We discovered that 7.2 percent of this facility's patients returned home.

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. When calculating a nursing home's nursing grade, we assess the quantity of hours nurses commit to residents and the levels of training of the nurses. This nursing home provides 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 facility has reliable quality controls in place. Major falls can typically be prevented if more nurses aids and better safety protocols are in place.

Long-term Care Quality

Grade: D

The final area we assessed is long-term care, which was a weak link for this facility. We gave this facility a grade of D for the area of long-term care, making this the facility's weakest category. We'd still recommend that you consider all of a nursing home's grades. For patients looking for a permanent place to live as opposed to skilled nursing, long-term care is an important category. On top of assessing the quantity of care provided by nurses aids and other staff, we looked at the percentage of residents vaccinated against pneumonia. This facility provided the vaccine to 99.10715 percent of its patients, which is more than most nursing homes. Surprisingly, this nursing home was able to limit hospitalizations. With just 0.01 hospitalizations per one thousand long-term resident days, this facility has less hospitalizations than the majority of nursing homes. Unfortunately, a few of its other scores in the category were not as favorable as these.
