Long-term Care Quality

Grade: A-plus

We awarded this nursing home an A+ for our long-term care grade. This grade is far more impressive than the facility's overall score. 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. After looking at the volume of care provided by nurses aids and other staff, we turned to the facility's vaccination statistics. This facility vaccinated 95.360825 percent of its patients against pneumonia, which is more than the vast majority of nursing homes. Clearly, this facility is doing something right in this area as it also excelled at keeping its residents out of the hospital. It had less than one hospitalization per 1,000 long-term resident days, which is an impressively low number.

Nurse Quality

Grade: A-minus

We also wanted to point out that this nursing home received a great nursing grade. In fact, it received one of our highest grades in that category with a score of A-. In calculating a nursing home's nursing grade, we look at the number of hours nurses spend with residents as well as the levels of training of those nurses. This particular nursing home provided 0.3 hours of nursing care per resident per day. Finally, we also assessed some nursing quality-based metrics in determining our nursing grades. This facility performed very well in the area of avoiding major falls and pressure ulcers. We consider these areas to be good indicators of the quality of nursing care.

Short-term Care Quality

Grade: B-plus

Another one of this nursing home's higher category grades was in the category of short-term care. In that area, we awarded this facility a grade of B+. In forming these short-term care grades, we quantify the nursing home's skilled nursing services, such as those performed by registered nurses, respiratory therapists, physical therapists and other types of therapists. Our goal is to devise a scale for comparing the rehabilitation services of different facilities. Fortunately, it looks like this facility employs registered nurses. Not all nursing homes employs these skilled professionals. On the other hand, according to the data this nursing home provided, it does not look like the facility employs physical therapists. The final item we considered in this category is the percentage of residents who were able to leave the nursing home and return to the community. We found that 0 percent of this nursing home's patients were able to return home.

Facility Inspections

Grade: F

The last category we assessed was inspections. This facility did not receive favorable government inspections in recent years. We gave it an F in this category. This dragged down this nursing home's overall score significantly. For places that received this bad of an inspection grade, we would scrutinize the severe deficiencies on its inspection report. This particular facility was hit with a category J through K deficiency, which rank among the worst deficiencies. Finally, we also would like to point out that this place was assessed large government fines in recent years of over $100,000. This usually indicates that a nursing home's poor track record spanned several years.
