Facility Inspections

Grade: B-plus

This nursing home's overall score was bolstered by the fact that it has received favorable health inspections in recent years. We gave them one of our better scores in this category, with a B+. This is a much better grade than the nursing home's overall grade. Inspection grades are tied to many items found on the a nursing home's recent inspection reports. Facilities that score well in this area typically have few deficiencies on their reports. Most importantly, these facilities generally do not have any severe deficiencies which are associated with risks to patient safety. Although this nursing home had some deficiencies on its inspection report, none were major deficiencies based on CMS' deficiency scale. A few minor deficiencies shouldn't stop you from considering a nursing home.

Nurse Quality

Grade: B

We also awarded this facility a favorable grade in nursing. This facility earned a grade of B in this category, which is one of our better grades. We looked at the levels of nurses employed by the facility, as well as the number of hours those nurses spent with residents, in calculating our grade in this category. This particular nursing home provided 0.4 hours of nursing care per resident per day. Finally, we also looked at some nursing quality measures in determining our nursing grades. This nursing home performed very well when it comes to avoiding major falls and pressure ulcers. We consider these areas to be good indicators of the quality of nursing care.

Long-term Care Quality

Grade: C

This nursing home's next most favorable area is long-term care. We gave it a C in this area. This is essentially a slightly below average grade in this area. Our long-term care grades are more important for folks in need of more traditional assistance associated with activities of daily living. One of the factors we considered in addition to nursing hours was vaccines. Fortunately, this facility provided the pneumonia vaccine to 97.44898 percent of its residents. This nursing home keeps its patients out of the hospital. In fact, it had only 0.01 hospitalizations per 1,000 long-term resident days, which is an impressively low figure.

Short-term Care Quality

Grade: D

Turning to the last category, we gave this facility a grade of D in the area of short-term care. This is the facility's weakest category grade. With our short-term care category, we seek to craft a fair gauge for rehabilitation services. In this process, we analyze a nursing home's level of highly-skilled nursing services, including both registered nurses and physical therapy, as well as speech therapy. Not surprisingly, we discovered that this facility provides far less physical therapist and registered nurse hours per patient than the typical facility. The final datapoint we considered in this category is the number of patients who were able to leave the nursing home and return to the community. We discovered that just 2.8 percent of this facility's patients were able to return home, which is well below average. The combination of these poor metrics was damning for this facility's short-term care grade.
