Places that receive favorable grades in this area have very few deficiencies on those reports. Most importantly, these nursing homes generally do not have any severe deficiencies which are associated with endangerment of patients. This nursing home was hit with 4 deficiencies on its inspection report, but we were relieved to see that none of the deficiencies were considered severe. This tells you that the government inspectors didn't consider any of the deficiencies to cause an immediate risk to patient health or safety. The fact that none of the deficiencies were severe leaves us less concerned with this inspection report.

Our short-term care scores are arguably more important for those requiring rehabilitation from their nursing home. Rehabilitation generally utilizes more skilled nursing services. Skilled nursing includes not only nursing services, but also physical and respiratory therapy, as well as other types of therapy. Fortunately, it looks like this nursing home employs registered nurses. Not every nursing home employs these types of nurses. However, based on the data this nursing home provided, it does not look like the facility employs physical therapists. The final datapoint we assessed in this category is the number of residents who were able to leave the nursing home and return home.

This nursing home averages just 0.3 hours of nursing care per resident per day. This is a very low figure. Lastly, while this nursing home got dinged a bit for its nursing hours per resident, it excelled in a few of our quality-based measures. With less than five percent of its residents experiencing pressure ulcers, it performed remarkably well in this metric.

Long-term Care Quality

Grade: C

The next area we graded is long-term care. This nursing home was awarded a grade of C for the category. Our long-term care grades are more critical for residents needing more traditional assistance related to activities of daily living. On top of looking at the amount of care provided by aids and other staff, we also looked at the percentage of residents vaccinated for pneumonia. This facility provided the vaccine to 95.80419 percent of its patients, which is more than the average nursing home. Lastly, this nursing home was also able to limit hospitalizations. It had less than one hospitalization per 1,000 long-term resident days, which is a remarkably low figure.
