Facility Inspections

Grade: A-minus

While this nursing home's overall grade was not a highlight, it actually excelled in the category of inspections. In fact, we awarded it an A- for that category, which is one of our highest scores. Inspection scores weigh several factors, including deficiencies, substantiated complaints and federal fines. You can learn more about each of these issues by reviewing copies of nursing homes' inspection reports. Fortunately, although this facility had some minor dings on its government inspection report, it had no severe deficiencies. Severe deficiencies are labeled as categories G through L. This tells you the 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 minor deficiencies aren't necessarily the end of the world.

Long-term Care Quality

Grade: B-minus

We also gave this nursing home a solid score in the category of long-term care, where it received a grade of B-. If you are looking for services other than rehabilitation, you should take a close look at each facility's long-term care scores. After looking at the amount of care provided by aids and other staff, we then looked at the nursing home's vaccination data. We were concerned by the fact that this facility vaccinated only 68.862274 percent of its residents against pneumonia. Nevertheless, this facility was able to keep its residents out of the hospital. It had less than one hospitalization per 1,000 long-term resident days, which is a remarkably low number.

Short-term Care Quality

Grade: F

The third category we analyzed is short-term care, where this nursing home received an F. In calculating our short-term care ratings, we analyze the nursing home's levels of highly skilled nursing services, which includes registered nurses, physical therapists occupational therapists and other types of therapists. This area is often a meaningful measure of the facility's ability to rehabilitate patients. Not surprisingly, we found that this nursing home provides far less physical therapist and registered nurse hours per resident than the average facility. The final datapoint we considered in this area is the number of residents that ultimately returned home from the nursing home. This nursing home struggled quite a bit in this area as well, with just 4.3 percent of its residents returning home. This was well below the national average.

Nurse Quality

Grade: F

The last area we looked at was nursing. This facility was given a bottom of the barrel grade of F in that area. Our nursing category is based on many components, most of which are associated with nursing hours. With a meager 0.3 hours of nursing care per patient per day, this facility's nurse staffing levels were significantly below average. Finally, we also looked at some nursing quality measures in determining our nursing scores. This nursing home fared well in the area of avoiding pressure ulcers and major falls.
