Facility Inspections
This facility received a solid overall grade as described above, but we really wanted to point out its nearly flawless government inspections in recent years. We gave them an impressive grade of A in this category. Perhaps the most significant factor we consider in calculating our inspection scores is deficiencies. These deficiencies can be found on a nursing home's recent inspection reports. Nursing homes with better scores in this category most likely dodged the most severe deficiencies involving things like patient abuse. 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. Finally, this facility had no substantiated complaints this year from residents, which is always a good sign.
Long-term Care Quality
Another one of this nursing home's more impressive category scores came in the category of long-term care. In that area, we awarded this nursing home a B+. It actually performed better than most nursing homes in this area. For prospective residents in need of a permanent residence as opposed to rehabilitation, long-term care grades are a key measure. After looking at the volume of care provided by nurses and other staff, we then looked at the nursing home's vaccination records. This nursing home vaccinated 86.695274 percent of its patients for pneumonia, which happens to be somewhat below what we were hoping for but still a reasonably acceptable figure. Clearly, this nursing home is doing something right in this area as it also excelled at keeping its patients out of the hospital. Indeed, it had only 0 hospitalizations per 1,000 long-term resident days, which is an impressively low number.
Short-term Care Quality
We awarded this facility a grade of just D for our short-term care grade. This is not one of our better scores. Short-term care ratings are vital for prospective residents looking for rehabilitation. Rehabilitation generally mandates additional skilled nursing services. Skilled nursing means a wide spectrum of nursing services, ranging from registered nurses to physical and respiratory therapists, as well as other variations of therapy. Unfortunately, we found that this nursing home provided fewer registered nurse hours per resident than most other facilities. Lastly, we looked at the number of residents who were able to return to the community from this nursing home. This definitely was not a strength for this facility. We found that just 38.3 percent of this facility's residents returned home. At most facilities, around half of their residents are able to return home so this is well below average.
Nurse Quality
This nursing home's weakest area is nursing, which is the final area we looked at. In this area, we awarded this nursing home a D. When calculating our nursing grades, we look at both nursing hours and the skill levels of those nurses. This nursing home provides 3.8 hours of nursing care per resident per day. This is slightly below average. Unfortunately, this place also had terrible scores in several of the quality-based metrics to go along with its weak nursing hour totals. For starters, we looked at the percentage of patients sustaining pressure ulcers. This nursing home was at more than double the national average in this statistic.
