Facility Inspections

Grade: B-plus

It should be noted that this facility's inspection grade outpaced its overall score. In fact, we awarded it a grade of B+ for its inspections grade, which is one of our better scores. Perhaps the most significant factor we look at in calculating our inspection grades is deficiencies. These deficiencies are found on a facility's inspection reports. Places with higher grades in this area typically dodged the most severe deficiencies involving patient abuse or death. This particular nursing home received 3 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: C

This nursing home's next best area is long-term care. We awarded it a grade of C in this category. This is basically a middle of the road grade in this area. In our long-term care grade, we focus on the quantity of services offered by a facility, as well as a few quality metrics. In addition to looking at the amount of care provided by nurses and other staff, we also looked at the percentage of residents vaccinated against pneumonia. This facility provided the vaccine to 96.66667 percent of its patients, which is better than most nursing homes. This nursing home was able to keep its patients out of the hospital. In fact, it had less than one hospitalization per one thousand long-term resident days, which is a remarkably low figure.

Nurse Quality

Grade: D

Turning to another strength for this facility, it also earned an elite nursing rating. We gave this facility a score of D. There are many factors included in this area. Many of these subcategories reflect levels of nurse staffing. This facility provided just 0.3 hours of nursing care per resident per day. This is a very low total compared to most nursing homes. Finally, we also assessed some nursing quality measures in determining our nursing ratings. This place fared well in terms of minimizing its residents' major falls and pressure ulcers. Many consider these metrics to be measures of the quality of nursing care.

Short-term Care Quality

Grade: D

This nursing home's weakest category is short-term care, which is the last category we analyzed. For this area, we gave this nursing home a D. Our short-term care ratings are thought to be more critical for folks requiring a nursing home for rehabilitation. Rehabilitation generally mandates more skilled nursing. This means not only nursing services, but also physical and speech therapy, as well as other variations of therapy. Not surprisingly, we learned that this nursing home offers far less registered nurse and physical therapist hours per resident than a typical facility. The last statistic we assessed in this category is the number of patients that were able to return home from the facility. This facility struggled quite a bit in this area as well, with just 0 percent of its patients returning home. Unfortunately, this was quite a bit below the national average.
