Facility Inspections

Grade: A-plus

While this facility's overall grade was not bad, it really fared well in the category of inspections. In fact, we awarded it a grade of A+ for that category, which is one of our highest scores. We take several aspects of a facility's inspection report into consideration in calculating these inspection grades. One critical factor is health deficiencies. It should be noted that the severity of deficiencies is usually more important than the quantity of deficiencies, as some of these are relatively insignificant. While this nursing home had some minor dings on its inspection report, it had zero severe deficiencies. Severe deficiencies are found in categories G, H, I, J, K and L. This tells you that the government inspectors did not consider any of the deficiencies on this facility's report to pose an imminent threat to patient safety or health. A couple of minor deficiencies should not stop you from considering a nursing home.

Long-term Care Quality

Grade: B-minus

This nursing home was given its second highest category grade in the area of long-term care. We awarded this facility a B- in this area, which is a respectable score. In computing our long-term care ratings, we look at the facility's personal care services. On top of assessing the amount of care provided by nurses aids and other staff, we analyzed the number of residents vaccinated for pneumonia. Thankfully, this nursing home provided the vaccine to 96.344086 percent of its patients, which is a very solid figure. Lastly, this place was also able to limit hospitalizations. In fact, it had less than one hospitalization per 1,000 long-term resident days, which is an impressively low number.

Short-term Care Quality

Grade: D

Moving on to the area of short-term care, this facility received a grade of just D in that category. Short-term care grades are based on a nursing home's quantity of highly-skilled skilled healthcare professionals. This means a wide spectrum of nursing services, spanning from registered nurses to physical and respiratory therapists, in addition to other types of therapy. Based on its poor rating in this area, we weren't shocked to find that this facility provides significantly fewer physical therapist and registered nurse hours per patient than most facilities. The final statistic we considered in this area is the number of residents who were able to leave the nursing home and return to the community. We discovered that just 4.8 percent of this facility's residents were able to return home, which is well below average. The combination of these poor metrics was damning for this facility's short-term care grade.

Nurse Quality

Grade: F

The next category we rated was nursing, which ended up being this facility's worst category. It received an F in this area, which is clearly concerning. When computing a facility's nursing grade, we consider the amount of time nurses commit to patients as well as the level of skill of those nurses. This nursing home offered only 0.3 hours of nursing care per patient per day. Lastly, we also assessed some nursing quality-based metrics in calculating our nursing ratings. This place performed well in the area of minimizing its residents' pressure ulcers and major falls.
