Registered Staff Hours
Facility Inspections
To pair with its relatively modest overall score, we gave this facility an A- for its inspection grade. This is far better than its overall score. These inspection grades take several factors into consideration, including deficiencies and federal fines. You can find more information about each of these items by reviewing copies of nursing homes' inspection reports. Although this nursing home had some deficiencies on its inspection report, none were serious based on CMS' deficiency scale. A couple minor dings are not the end of the world.
Nurse Quality
We also wanted to emphasize the fact that this nursing home received an impressive grade of B in the area of nursing. Our nursing rating is mostly based on a nursing home's nurse staffing. This nursing home provides 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 place performed well in this area. Avoiding major falls is typically a good indicator that a place has reliable quality controls in place. Major falls can frequently be prevented if more nurses aids and better safety protocols are in place.

Long-term Care Quality
We also gave this nursing home a solid score in the area of long-term care, where we gave it a grade of B-. In the category of long-term care, we look at the quantity of services offered by a facility, rather than more healthcare-oriented services. On top of assessing the quantity 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 100 percent of its patients. This nursing home keeps its residents out of the hospital. Indeed, it had less than one hospitalization per 1,000 long-term resident days, which is an impressively low number.
Short-term Care Quality
The last category we graded is short-term care, which turned out to be this nursing home's least impressive area. We awarded this nursing home a D in this category. Sadly, this score hurt the facility's overall profile a bit. In calculating these short-term care scores, we assess the nursing home's skilled nursing services, including those performed by registered nurses, occupational therapists, physical therapists and other types of skilled professionals. Our purpose is to create a barometer for comparing the rehabilitation services of various nursing homes. It appears that this facility was below average in the two key staffing metrics we assessed. It offered fewer registered nurse and physical therapist hours per resident than most other nursing homes. Finally, we considered the percentage of patients who were able to return to the community from this nursing home. This wasn't a strength for this facility. We found that just 3 percent of this facility's residents returned home. At most nursing homes, around half of their patients are able to return home so this is well below average.
