Facility Inspections

Grade: A-plus

One of the reasons this place ended up being a quality nursing home is it received an A+ inspection grade. This is simply as good as it gets in this critical category. We take several aspects of a facility's inspection report into consideration in calculating these inspection scores. One key factor is deficiencies. You should keep in mind that the severity of the deficiencies is usually more meaningful than the number of deficiencies, as some end up being quite minor. Fortunately, although this facility had a few minor dings on its government inspection report, it had no severe deficiencies. Severe deficiencies are found in categories G, H, I, J, K and L. This tells you that the inspectors did not deem any of the deficiencies on this facility's report to pose an imminent threat to patient health or safety. Finally, this facility had no substantiated complaints this year from residents, which is an excellent sign.

Long-term Care Quality

Grade: A-minus

One of the other reasons we graded this nursing home so highly is that it received a strong long-term care score. Indeed, long-term care ended up being its second best category score. In that area, we gave this nursing home a grade of A-. Nursing homes that do well in this category tend to be well-staffed and provide extensive hands on care to residents. In addition to looking at the amount of care provided by nurses aids and other staff, we looked at the percentage of residents vaccinated for pneumonia. This nursing home vaccinated 99.32886 percent of its residents, which is very impressive. Pneumonia can be a deadly ailment for nursing home patients so we like it when a nursing home does not leave its residents vulnerable. Lastly, this nursing home was able to limit hospitalizations. Indeed, it had less than one hospitalization per 1,000 long-term resident days, which is a remarkably low number.

Short-term Care Quality

Grade: B-plus

Turning to the third area, this facility also earned a score of B+ for its short-term care rating. This is an above average grade in this category. In crafting our short-term care ratings, we look at the facility's skilled nursing services, including those performed by registered nurses, respiratory therapists, physical therapists and other types of skilled professionals. Our purpose is to formulate a measure for sizing up the rehabilitation services of various facilities. Unfortunately, we weren't able to find information on registered nurse or physical therapy staffing for this nursing home. Lastly, we considered the percentage of patients who were able to return to the community from this facility. We found that 6.4 percent of this facility's residents returned home.

Nurse Quality

Grade: C

The next area we looked at was nursing. This nursing home received an above average nursing score in our assessment, with a C. While this isn't nearly as good as many of its other grades, this is nevertheless a decent grade in that area. Our nursing category consists of a handful of components, many of which are tied to nursing hours. This facility provided just 0.3 hours of nursing care per resident per day. This is a relatively low total compared to most other facilities. Lastly, we also assessed some nursing quality measures. While this facility got dinged a bit for its nursing hours per resident, it actually excelled in some of these quality metrics. With fewer than five percent of its residents sustaining pressure ulcers, it did remarkably well in this subcategory. This can be a good indicator of quality nursing care. Pressure ulcers can generally be avoided by providing better nursing care, such as employing a protocol of moving residents more often.
