Long-term Care Quality

Grade: A

In addition to receiving a strong overall grade, this nursing home also received an elite long-term care score. We gave them one of our higher scores in that category, with an impressive grade of A. For prospective residents looking for a permanent place to live rather than skilled nursing, long-term care is a very important category. In addition to assessing the volume of care provided by aids and other staff, we also looked at the percentage of residents vaccinated for pneumonia. This nursing home administered the vaccine to 89.655174 percent of its residents. This is somewhat less than we were hoping for but still a respectable percentage. Clearly, this place is doing something right in this area as it was able to keep its residents out of the hospital. Indeed, it had less than one hospitalization per 1,000 long-term resident days, which is an impressively low number.

Facility Inspections

Grade: A

Adding to its impressive profile, this nursing home also performed at a high level in the category of inspections. In fact, it received a nearly flawless inspection report this year. As a result, it earned one of our best grades in that area with an A. We weigh several aspects of a nursing home's inspection report in calculating these inspection ratings. One critical factor is health deficiencies. You should keep in mind that the severity of the deficiencies is arguably more important than the quantity of deficiencies, as some end up being quite minor. While this nursing home had some deficiencies on its report, none were severe based on CMS' scale. Finally, this facility had no substantiated complaints this year from residents, which is an excellent sign.

Short-term Care Quality

Grade: C

This facilities next most favorable area was short-term care. We awarded it a grade of C in this category. This is essentially a middle of the pack score in this category. Short-term care grades are typically employed to grade a facility's performance with rehabilitation To have quality rehabilitation services, facilities generally must offer better levels of skilled nursing services. Skilled nursing includes registered nurses, physical therapists, speech therapists and other highly skilled individuals. Fortunately, it appear that this facility employs registered nurses. Not all nursing homes employs these types of nurses. On the other hand, according to the data this nursing home provided, they do not appear to employ physical therapists. The final datapoint we looked at in this category is the percentage of residents that were able to return home from the nursing home. We found that just 3.3 percent of this nursing home's residents returned home.

Nurse Quality

Grade: C

The last category we assessed is nursing. We gave this facility a grade of C in this area. In computing our nursing ratings, we assess both nursing hours and the levels of licensure of the nurses. This nursing home averages just 0.4 hours of nursing care per resident per day. This is a very low figure. Lastly, our nursing ratings also factor in some quality-focused measures. We like to look at the percentage of patients who sustained pressure ulcers and major falls. Sometimes these metrics are measures of the quality of nursing care, since better care tends to reduce these issues.
