Facility Inspections

An A+ in this area is one of the highest complements we can offer a facility. Perhaps the most critical factor we look at in calculating our inspection scores is deficiencies. These deficiencies are found on a facility's recent inspection reports. Nursing homes with higher grades in this area most likely avoided the most severe deficiencies involving patient abuse or death. Unfortunately, we were not able to locate deficiency counts for this nursing home. We wish we had more information about this nursing home. Without deficiency data, it was challenging to grade this facility in the inspections category.
Long-term Care Quality
In addition, this nursing home also was awarded favorable long-term care grades in our assessment. Indeed, we awarded them one of our stronger grades in that area, with a grade of B+. For prospective patients in need of a permanent residence rather than skilled nursing, long-term care is a very important category. On top of looking at the amount of care provided by aids and other staff, we looked at the number of residents vaccinated for pneumonia. This nursing home vaccinated 78.7728 percent of its patients, which is a few points lower than we expected.

Finally, our nursing grades also factor in quality-based assessments, such as avoiding major falls. This facility performed well in this area. Avoiding major falls is typically a good indicator that a facility has reliable quality controls in place. Major falls can frequently be prevented if more nurses aids and better safety protocols are in place.

The final area we rated was short-term care, in which this facility was awarded a grade of C. This actually ended up being this facility's weakest category. This is nevertheless not a poor grade. Short-term care ratings are meaningful for prospective residents looking for rehabilitation. Rehabilitation generally utilizes more highly-skilled nursing. Skilled nursing means a broad scope of services, ranging from registered nurses to physical and occupational therapists, as well as other types of therapy. We were not able to locate information about this nursing home's registered nurse or physical therapy staffing. The last item we looked at in this area is the number of residents who were able to leave the nursing home and return home. We discovered that just 5.2 percent of this facility's residents were able to return home, which is actually below average.
