Short-term Care Quality

Grade: A

This facility really excelled in the category of short-term care, with an impressive grade of A in this area. This really propped up its overall score. Our short-term care grade is commonly used to measure a nursing home's performance with rehabilitation. In order to offer highly scored rehabilitation services, nursing homes generally must feature better levels of highly skilled nursing. These types of services include registered nurses, physical therapists, occupational therapists and other types of therapists. Fortunately, it looks like this nursing home employs registered nurses. Not every facility employs these skilled professionals. However, based on the data this nursing home provided, it does not look like the facility employs physical therapists. Lastly, we assessed the number of patients who were able to return to the community from this facility. We found that 6.3 percent of this nursing home's residents returned home.

Nurse Quality

Grade: B-plus

This facility also excelled in the category of nursing, where it earned an B+. Few places fared better in this category. Nursing ratings are mostly based on a facility's level of nurse staffing. This facility provided 0.5 hours of nursing care per resident per day. Finally, we also looked at several nursing quality-based metrics and this nursing home excelled in some of these areas. With less than five percent of its residents sustaining pressure ulcers, it performed as well as any place Oregon in this category. This is generally a good indicator of quality nursing care. Pressure ulcers can generally be prevented by providing better nursing care, such as by employing a protocol of turning a resident at least once a day.

Facility Inspections

Grade: C

This facility received somewhat favorable health inspections in recent years. We awarded them a decent score in that area, with a grade of C. Inspection scores are based on many datapoints found on the a nursing home's recent inspection reports. Deficiencies are an important item to look for on these inspections. Severe deficiencies indicate a threat to the well being of residents. This facility was assessed 2 deficiencies on its inspection report, but we were relieved to find that none were in categories G through L. This means the government inspectors didn't consider any of the deficiencies to create an imminent danger to resident safety or health. Unfortunately, we also need to draw your attention to the fact that this facility received significant government fines in recent years.

Long-term Care Quality

Grade: C

The last category we graded was long-term care. We gave this facility a C in this category. Our long-term care ratings are more important for residents in need of more conventional services related to personal care. After looking at the quantity of care provided by nurses and other staff, we turned to the nursing home's vaccination records. This facility vaccinated 97.69231 percent of its patients against pneumonia, which is more than the majority of nursing homes. This place keeps its patients out of the hospital. Indeed, it had less than one hospitalization per one thousand long-term resident days, which is an impressively low figure.
