Facility Inspections

The main reason this facility received a decent overall score is its impeccable health inspections in recent years. We gave it one of our better grades in that area, with a grade of A. This is a notably better grade than the place's overall score, which was decent but certainly not elite. We take several aspects of a facility's inspection report into consideration in determining our inspection ratings. One of those factors is health deficiencies. It should be noted that the severity of these deficiencies is usually more important than the number of deficiencies, as some can be quite minor. This place was assessed 3 deficiencies on its inspection report, but fortunately none of the deficiencies were considered to be major deficiencies. This indicates that the inspectors didn't deem any of the deficiencies to be an immediate risk to patient health or safety. Finally, this facility had no substantiated complaints this year from residents, which is an excellent sign.

Long-term Care Quality

We also gave this facility a favorable grade in long-term care. This facility received a B+ in this category, which turns out to be one of our better grades. Long-term care grades in this range generally require both around the clock care from nurses and aids, as well as quality routine healthcare services. After assessing the volume of care provided by aids and other staff, we then looked at the facility's vaccination record. This facility vaccinated 92.51337 percent of its patients for pneumonia, which happens to be slightly less than we expected but still a reasonably acceptable figure. Finally, this nursing home was able to limit hospitalizations. Indeed, it had only 0.01 hospitalizations per one thousand long-term resident days, which is a remarkably low figure.

Short-term Care Quality

Turning to the area of short-term care, this facility was awarded just a D in this area. In calculating our short-term care grades, we scrutinize a facility's levels of skilled nursing services, which includes registered nurses, physical therapists respiratory therapists and other types of therapists. This score is often a solid measure of the facility's ability to rehabilitate patients. In this nursing home's case, it looks like it provided fewer registered nurse and physical therapist hours per patient than a typical facility. Lastly, we considered the percentage of residents who who were able to eventually return home from this nursing home. This facility didn't fare well here either. In fact, we found that just 0 percent of this facility's patients were able to return home.

Nurse Quality

The final category we analyzed was nursing, ended up being this nursing home's weakest area. We gave this facility a grade of D in that area. This really is one of the couple of dings on an otherwise impressive report card. Our nursing grade assesses the facility's nurse staffing levels. We look at both the levels of skill of those nurses and the quantity of hours spent with patients. This place averaged only 0.3 hours of nursing care per patient per day. Lastly, we also looked at some nursing quality-based metrics in determining our nursing ratings. This facility fared well in the area of minimizing its residents' major falls and pressure ulcers. We consider these metrics to be reliable measures of the quality of nursing care.
