Facility Inspections

Grade: A

To go along with a strong overall score, we awarded this facility an A for inspections. Our inspection grades weigh several factors found on a facility's inspection report. One of the most important criteria we look at is the number and severity of deficiencies. Facilities with better scores in this area tend to have very few severe deficiencies. This particular nursing home had just a single deficiency on its inspection report and it was not one deemed to pose a threat to patient health or safety. Even some of the best nursing homes receive an occasional ding on their inspection report.

Short-term Care Quality

Grade: A

Contributing to its fine profile, this nursing home also was given a dominant short-term care grade, with a grade of A. Our short-term care ratings are meaningful for prospective residents in need of rehabilitation. Rehabilitation usually utilizes higher levels of highly-skilled nursing. Skilled nursing includes a vast range of services, spanning from registered nurses to physical and speech therapists, as well as other forms of therapy. Fortunately, it appear that this facility has registered nurses on staff. Not all facilities employs these types of nurses. On the other hand, based on the information they provided, it does not look like the facility employs physical therapists. The final datapoint we looked at in this area is the number of residents that ultimately were able to return home from the nursing home. We found that 6.1 percent of this nursing home's patients returned home as opposed to remaining at the facility on a permanent basis.

Long-term Care Quality

Grade: A-minus

Turning our next area, we awarded this nursing home a grade of A- for its long-term care grade. This is a very strong grade. Nursing homes that receive this kind of grade in long-term care typically provide consistent 24/7 care to make sure residents are well cared for. One of the factors we considered on top of nursing hours is vaccines. This facility provided the pneumonia vaccine to 98.83871 percent of its residents. Vaccination is a great way to avoid negative health outcomes for the senior population. Clearly, this facility is doing something right in this area as it also excelled at keeping its patients out of the hospital. Indeed, it had only 0.01 hospitalizations per one thousand long-term resident days, which is a remarkably low number.

Nurse Quality

Grade: B

The next category we analyzed is this facility's worst category. However, even its weakest link would be a highlight for many facilities. We awarded it a strong grade of B for nursing. The nursing rating is based on a handful of factors, however, the most important consideration is the number of nurse hours spent with patients. This nursing home provides 0.4 hours of nursing care per resident per day. Lastly, we also factored a few quality-based metrics into our nursing grades. This nursing home was relatively weak in two of the major areas we focus on, with below average scores for minimizing its residents' pressure ulcers and major falls. These areas are generally reliable indicators of the quality of nursing care provided.
