Facility Inspections

Grade: B

Although this facility's overall score was not a highlight, it did receive a very good grade in the category of inspections. We awarded it a grade of B for that area, which is one of our better grades. We take several aspects of a facility's inspection report into consideration in calculating these inspection ratings. One key factor is deficiencies. It should be noted that the severity of these deficiencies is usually more meaningful than the number of deficiencies, as some of these are relatively insignificant. This particular nursing home received 4 deficiencies on its inspection report. Overall, this is still a solid inspection report, but we'd always recommend looking into any deficiencies you find troubling.

Long-term Care Quality

Grade: B-minus

This nursing home was awarded its second highest category grade in the area of long-term care. We awarded this facility a B- in this category, which is a reasonably acceptable score. For residents in need of a permanent place to live as opposed to rehabilitation, long-term care is an important category. On top of considering the amount of care provided by aids and other staff, we looked at the percentage of residents vaccinated for pneumonia. This nursing home gave the vaccine to 93.27549 percent of its residents. This is a few points below what we expected but still a decent figure. Nevertheless, this facility excelled at keeping its residents out of the hospital. It had less than one hospitalization per one thousand long-term resident days, which is a remarkably low number.

Nurse Quality

Grade: C

This nursing home actually received a decent grade in the area of nursing as well. We awarded it a grade of C for that category, which is not a bad score. Nursing grades are largely associated with a nursing home's nurse staffing. 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. Despite having low quantities of nursing care, this facility excelled in some of the quality-based metrics we looked at. In fact, it scored well in terms of minimizing its residents' major falls and pressure ulcers. Many consider these areas to be good measures of the quality of nursing care. In some cases, the quality of nursing care is as important as the quantity of hours of care offered.

Short-term Care Quality

Grade: F

The last area we analyzed is short-term care, where this facility was given a very poor grade in this area also. Sadly, it received an abysmal F in this category, which is obviously a major disappointment. Our short-term care ratings are presumably most critical for residents needing rehabilitation services. Rehabilitation generally utilizes additional skilled nursing. Skilled nursing means not just nursing services, but also physical and occupational therapy, as well as other forms of therapy. Not surprisingly, we found that this nursing home provides far less physical therapist and registered nurse hours per resident than the average facility. Finally, we looked at the percentage of patients who were able to return to the community from this nursing home. This definitely was not a strength for this facility. We found that just 4 percent of this nursing home's patients returned home. At most nursing homes, about half of their residents are able to return home so this is well below average.
