Facility Inspections
To go along with its relatively modest overall score, we gave this nursing home an A+ for our inspections rating. This grade is far more impressive than its overall grade. These inspection scores weigh several factors, including deficiencies and substantiated complaints. You can learn more about each of these factors by obtaining copies of nursing homes' inspection reports. This nursing home was hit with 3 deficiencies on its inspection report, but none of the deficiencies were considered severe. This indicates that the inspectors didn't consider any of the deficiencies to be an imminent risk to patient safety or health. A couple of minor deficiencies should not lead you to cross a nursing home off your list.
Long-term Care Quality
This facility also was given an impressive long-term care score. In fact, we awarded it a grade of B in that area, which happens to be one of our more favorable scores. Facilities that receive this kind of score in this category tend to provide consistent 24/7 care to ensure patients are kept in good health. Once we looked at the amount of care provided by nurses aids and other staff, we next considered the nursing home's vaccination statistics. This nursing home vaccinated 100 percent of its patients for pneumonia, which is more than the majority of nursing homes. The last statistic we assessed is its hospitalization rate. Although it had 2.25 hospitalizations per one thousand long-term resident days, its risk adjusted score was close to the middle of the pack since it had some more complex patients.
Nurse Quality
Moving on to another strength for this facility, it also received an elite nursing rating. In fact, we gave this facility an impressive grade of D. When calculating a nursing home's nursing score, we assess the number of hours nurses are seeing patients and the levels of training of those nurses. Quantity of nursing care is apparently not the issue here with this place's grade. This facility actually provides an above average 4.2 hours of nursing care per resident daily. Despite being above average in terms of nursing hours, this nursing home had a few less favorable scores in some of the quality-based measures we looked at in computing our nursing ratings. We looked at the percent of residents having falls leading to major injury and found this nursing home to be above the national average in this statistic. This is not what we like to see here. We believe that many falls could likely be avoided with better nursing care. This statistic contributed to this nursing home receiving a poor nursing grade.
Short-term Care Quality
The final category we analyzed is short-term care, which proved to be this nursing home's worst area. We gave this facility a grade of D in that category. Our short-term care grades are important for patients seeking rehabilitation. Rehabilitation typically utilizes more highly-skilled nursing services. This means a broad spectrum of services, spanning from registered nurses to physical and speech therapists, as well as other types of therapy. Not surprisingly, we discovered that this place provides significantly less registered nurse and physical therapist hours per patient than the average facility. The last measure we looked at in this area is the percentage of patients that were able to return home from the facility. This nursing home struggled quite a bit in this metric as well, with just 34.5 percent of its patients returning home.
