Facility Inspections

Grade: A-minus

The main reason this facility received a decent overall score is its excellent government inspections in recent years. We gave it one of our better grades in that area, with a grade of A-. This is a much better score than the facility's overall score, which was decent but certainly not elite. These inspection grades weigh several factors, including deficiencies and substantiated complaints. You can learn more about each of these issues by reviewing copies of nursing homes' inspection reports. While this place had some deficiencies on its inspection report, none were severe based on CMS' deficiency scale. The fact that none of the deficiencies were severe leaves us less concerned with this inspection report.

Long-term Care Quality

Grade: B-plus

Another one of this facility's more favorable category grades was in the category of long-term care. In that area, we awarded this nursing home a grade of B+. Long-term care grades of this caliber generally require both around the clock care from nurses and aids, as well as quality routine healthcare services. In addition to assessing the quantity of care provided by nurses aids and other staff, we also looked at the percentage of residents vaccinated against pneumonia. This nursing home gave the vaccine to 100 percent of its patients, which is what we like to see. Pneumonia is too frequently a life threatening condition for nursing home residents so we prefer when a facility doesn't roll the dice on this issue. Finally, this nursing home was able to limit hospitalizations. Indeed, it had only 0.01 hospitalizations per 1,000 long-term resident days, which is a remarkably low figure.

Nurse Quality

Grade: B-minus

Next, we looked at the nursing category where we awarded this nursing home a grade of B-, which is a decent grade. Our nursing score considers several factors. The most important variable is the quantity of hours nurses spend with patients. This particular nursing home provided just 0.4 hours of nursing care per patient on a daily basis. This figure is significantly below average. Finally, while this place got docked a bit for its nursing hours, it actually excelled in a few of our quality-based measures. With less than five percent of its patients experiencing pressure ulcers, it did well in this statistic.

Short-term Care Quality

Grade: F

The last area we analyzed was short-term care, which ended up being this nursing home's worst category. It received a lowly F in this category, which is clearly a major concern. Our short-term care grades are presumably most meaningful for folks requiring rehabilitation from their nursing home. Rehabilitation usually mandates additional skilled nursing services. This means not only nursing, but also physical and occupational therapy, as well as other variations of therapy. In this nursing home's case, we found that it provides less physical therapist and registered nurse hours per resident than the average facility. The last metric we looked at in this category is the number of residents who ultimately returned home from the facility. This facility struggled quite a bit in this metric as well, with just 4.5 percent of its patients returning home. This was well below the national average.
