Facility Inspections

Grade: A-plus

To go along with its strong overall grade, we awarded this nursing home a grade of A+ for our inspections rating. Arguably the most significant factor we look at in computing our inspection ratings is deficiencies. Deficiencies can be found on a nursing home's recent inspection reports. Facilities with higher scores in this area most likely avoided the most severe deficiencies involving things like patient abuse. Although this facility had a few deficiencies on its report, none of them were serious based on CMS' scale. Finally, this facility had no substantiated complaints this year from residents, which is an excellent sign.

Long-term Care Quality

Grade: A

We also wanted to note the fact that this nursing home was given a strong score of A in our long-term care area. When facilities receive a score in this range in long-term care it typically means it has plenty of staff and is a quality place to live on a permanent basis. 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 nursing home administered the vaccine to 99.754906 percent of its residents. Vaccines are vital to keeping residents healthy. Clearly, this place is doing something right in this area as it also excelled at keeping its residents out of the hospital. It had only 0.03 hospitalizations per one thousand long-term resident days, which is an impressively low number.

Short-term Care Quality

Grade: B-plus

Turning to the third category, this facility also earned a grade of B+ for its short-term care rating. This is a well above average score in this area. Our short-term care grade is generally employed to judge a nursing home's performance with rehabilitation In order to have good rehabilitation services, facilities generally must provide better levels of highly skilled nursing. These types of services include registered nurses, physical therapists, respiratory therapists and other highly skilled individuals. Fortunately, it looks like this nursing home employs registered nurses. Not all facilities employs these types of nurses. However, according to the information this nursing home provided, they do not appear to employ physical therapists. Finally, we assessed the percentage of residents who eventually returned home from this nursing home. We found that 5.6 percent of this facility's residents were able to return home.

Nurse Quality

Grade: C

The last area we assessed is nursing. We awarded this facility an acceptable score in this category, with a grade of C. Although this wasn't as high as several of this facility's other grades, it is nevertheless not a bad grade. When calculating a nursing home's nursing rating, we assess the quantity of hours nurses are with residents and the level of skill of the nurses. This nursing home averages just 0.3 hours of nursing care per resident per day. This is a very low figure. Finally, we also factored in some quality-based metrics in this category. While this facility didn't rank well in terms of its nursing hours per resident, it performed much better in some of the quality measures we assessed. In terms of the percentage of its patients suffering from pressure ulcers, this facility performed better than average. This is typically an indicator that a facility has sufficient quality controls in place. Pressure ulcers can often be avoided with better nursing care.
