Facility Inspections

Grade: A-plus

In addition to being a respectable facility overall, this place really excelled in the category of inspections, where it received a grade of A+. Few facilities performed better in this category. Inspection scores take several factors into consideration, including deficiencies and federal fines. You can learn more about each of these issues by obtaining copies of nursing homes' inspection reports. While this facility had a few deficiencies on its inspection report, none were severe based on CMS' deficiency scale. The fact that none of the deficiencies were severe made us feel better about this inspection report.

Long-term Care Quality

Grade: B-plus

This facility also was awarded a positive grade in our long-term care category. We awarded this facility an above average grade of B+ in that category. If you are seeking anything other than rehabilitation, you should take a close look at each nursing home's long-term care scores. In addition to assessing the amount of care provided by aids and other staff, we also looked at the number of residents vaccinated for pneumonia. This facility administered the vaccine to 81.00775 percent of its patients, which is a few points lower than we anticipated. Although its vaccination rate was a bit lower than we had hoped, at least this place was able to limit hospitalizations. It had only 0.02 hospitalizations per one thousand long-term resident days, which is a remarkably low figure.

Nurse Quality

Grade: C

One of this facility's better category grades was in the area of nursing care. In that area, we gave this facility a grade of C. Our nursing category analyzes a handful of factors, many of which are based on quantities of nurse staffing. This nursing home averages just 0.3 hours of nursing care per resident per day. This is a very low figure. Finally, while this place got dinged a bit for its nursing hours per resident, it excelled in a few of our quality measures. With fewer than five percent of its patients sustaining pressure ulcers, it did remarkably well in this metric.

Short-term Care Quality

Grade: D

The next category we graded is short-term care. We awarded this nursing home a grade of D for our short-term care category, leaving this as its worst grade. In calculating our short-term care scores, we assess a facility's levels of highly skilled nursing, which includes registered nurses, physical therapists occupational therapists and other types of therapists. This score is typically a meaningful measure of the nursing home's rehabilitation. Unfortunately, this nursing home was below average in terms of its quantity of physical therapy and registered nurse hours provided to its residents based on the measures we assessed. The last measure we assessed in this category is the percentage of residents that who were able to eventually return home from the facility. This nursing home struggled quite a bit in this metric as well, with just 4.9 percent of its residents returning home. Unfortunately, this was well below average.
