Facility Inspections

Grade: A-plus

While this facility's overall grade was not bad, it really fared well in the category of inspections. In fact, we awarded it a grade of A+ for that category, which is one of our best scores. Arguably the most important factor we consider in computing our inspection ratings is deficiencies. Deficiencies can be found on a nursing home's inspection reports. Facilities with better scores in this category typically dodged the more severe deficiencies involving things like patient abuse. This facility received 4 deficiencies on its inspection report, but fortunately none of the deficiencies were considered to be severe. This tells you that the government inspectors did not consider any of these deficiencies to be an imminent threat to resident health or safety. We should point out that deficiency-free inspections are uncommon in the industry.

Nurse Quality

Grade: B

This nursing home also received a strong nursing grade. In fact, we awarded it a grade of B in that category, which is one of our better scores. Our nursing grade is mostly tied to a nursing home's level of nurse staffing. This particular nursing home provided 0.3 hours of nursing care per resident per day. Finally, we also assessed several nursing quality measures 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 facility the state in this category. This is generally a good indicator of quality nursing care. Pressure ulcers can often be prevented by providing better nursing care, such as employing a policy of moving a patient more often.

Long-term Care Quality

Grade: B-minus

The next most favorable area we gave this facility in any area came in the area of long-term care, where we awarded it a B-. In determining our long-term care scores, we look at the assistance with daily living received by a nursing home's patients. In addition to considering the amount of care provided by nurses aids and other staff, we looked at the percentage of residents vaccinated against pneumonia. This facility gave the vaccine to 92.95154 percent of its residents. This is a bit less than we anticipated but still a respectable percentage. Nevertheless, this nursing home excelled at keeping its residents out of the hospital. It had only 0.01 hospitalizations per 1,000 long-term resident days, which is an impressively low number.

Short-term Care Quality

Grade: D

The next category we analyzed is short-term care, which ended up being this facility's least impressive area. We gave this facility a D in this category. Of course, this grade pulled down the facility's overall grade a bit. In determining our short-term care ratings, we assess the nursing home's skilled nursing services, such as those performed by registered nurses, occupational therapists, physical therapists and other types of therapists. Our objective is to devise a barometer for comparing the rehabilitation services of various nursing homes. We found that this facility was below average in two of the key staffing metrics we focus on. It provided fewer registered nurse and physical therapist hours per resident than most facilities. Finally, we considered the number of residents that returned home from this facility. This facility didn't fare well here either. In fact, we found that just 3.6 percent of this facility's residents were able to return home.
