Facility Inspections

Grade: A

To go along with its favorable overall grade, we gave this place an A for the area of inspections. Arguably the most significant factor we look at in determining our inspection ratings is deficiencies. These deficiencies can be found on a nursing home's recent inspection reports. Facilities with better grades in this area most likely dodged the most severe deficiencies involving patient abuse or death. This place received 5 deficiencies on its inspection report, but none were considered to be major deficiencies. This means that the inspectors did not consider any of these deficiencies to create an immediate risk to patient safety or health. Finally, this facility had no substantiated complaints this year from residents, which is an excellent sign.

Long-term Care Quality

Grade: A-minus

Adding to this nursing home's list of achievements, it also received a first-rate long-term care grade. We gave them a strong strong of A- in this category. When facilities receive this type of grade in this category it is typically a good sign for resident care and indicates that the facility is well-staffed with nurses aids. One of the criteria we considered on top of nursing hours was vaccinations. This facility administered the pneumonia vaccination to 95.23809 percent of its residents. This is a reliable method to avoid unnecessary deaths and hospitalizations for the senior population. Finally, this nursing home was able to limit hospitalizations. In fact, it had less than one hospitalization per one thousand long-term resident days, which is a remarkably low figure.

Short-term Care Quality

Grade: B-plus

This nursing home was awarded a favorable short-term care grade as well. We awarded it one of our higher scores in that area with a score of B+. Our short-term care scores are presumably most important for patients in need of rehabilitation from their nursing home. Rehabilitation usually requires higher levels of highly-skilled nursing. This includes not merely nursing, but also physical and speech therapy, as well as other types of therapy. Unfortunately, we were not able to locate information on registered nurse or physical therapy staffing for this nursing home. The final measure we looked at in this area is the number of residents who eventually returned home from the nursing home. We found that 0 percent of this nursing home's patients returned home as opposed to remaining at the facility on a permanent basis.

Nurse Quality

Grade: B

The next category we analyzed is nursing. This facility was awarded a favorable nursing rating in our assessment, with a grade of B. This nursing home truly doesn't have any weaknesses. Our nursing rating analyzes the nursing home's level of nurse staffing. We weigh both the levels of skill of the nurses as well as the number of hours spent with residents. This nursing home averages 0 hours of nursing care per resident per day. Finally, our nursing grades also factor in quality-based assessments, such as avoiding major falls. This facility 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 typically be prevented if more nurses aids and better safety protocols are in place.
