Facility Inspections

Grade: B-plus

This facility's best category grade came in the area of health inspections. In that category, we gave this facility a B+. It outperformed most facilities in this area. Inspection ratings take several factors into consideration, including deficiencies and federal fines. You can find more information about each of these issues by obtaining copies of nursing homes' inspection reports. Fortunately, although this facility had some minor dings on its government inspection report, it had zero severe deficiencies. Severe deficiencies are ones found in categories G through L. This tells you that the government inspectors didn't deem any of the deficiencies on this facility's report to pose an imminent threat to patient health or safety. A couple of minor deficiencies should not stop you from considering a nursing home.

Short-term Care Quality

Grade: B

Another one of this facility's higher category scores was in the area of short-term care. In that category, we awarded this facility a B. It actually outperformed most facilities in this area. In computing our short-term care grades, we analyze a nursing home's levels of highly skilled nursing, which includes registered nurses, physical therapists respiratory therapists and other highly skilled individuals. This area is considered to be a reliable measure of a nursing home's rehabilitation services. Fortunately, it looks like this nursing home employs registered nurses. Not every facility employs these skilled professionals. However, according to the data they provided, they do not appear to employ physical therapists. The last metric we looked at in this area is the percentage of residents who were able to leave the nursing home and return home. We found that 5.6 percent of this facility's residents returned home.

Nurse Quality

Grade: B

An additional reason we rated this nursing home so highly is that it received an A+ nursing score. This is simply as good as it gets in this area. Our nursing grade includes a handful of components, many of which are associated with quantities of nurse staffing. This particular nursing home provided 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 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.

Long-term Care Quality

Grade: D

The next category we rated is long-term care, which turned out to be a low point for this nursing home. We awarded this nursing home a grade of just D in long-term care. For long-term care residents, the primary objective is to keep patients as healthy and safe as possible. This is different than skilled nursing or short-term care where the goal is to rehabilitate patients. Once we finished looking at the volume of care provided by nurses, we then analyzed the facility's vaccination data. We were pleased to discover that this nursing home vaccinated 99.18699 percent of its patients against pneumonia. Surprisingly, this facility also keeps its residents out of the hospital. It had just 0.01 hospitalizations per 1,000 long-term resident days. Sadly, a few of its other scores in this category were not as favorable as these.
