Facility Inspections

In addition to being a strong facility overall, this facility also excelled in the area of inspections, where it received an A. Not many facilities fared better in this area. Inspection ratings are tied to many datapoints located in the a nursing home's recent inspection reports. Nursing homes that receive favorable grades in this area tend to have very few deficiencies on their reports. Most importantly, these nursing homes should not have any severe deficiencies which are associated with endangerment of patients. Although this place had a few deficiencies on its government inspection report, none were severe based on CMS' deficiency scale. Finally, this facility had no substantiated complaints this year from residents, which is an excellent sign.

Long-term Care Quality

This facility received high grades in the category of long-term care as well. Consequently, we awarded it one of our highest grades in that category with a area of A. When nursing homes receive this type of score in long-term care it is typically a good sign for resident care and indicates that the nursing home is well-staffed with nurses and aids. After considering the amount of nursing care, we turned to the facility's vaccination record. This facility vaccinated 100 percent of its patients against pneumonia, which is very impressive. Pneumonia sadly is often a life or death condition for nursing home residents so we like it when a nursing home does not roll the dice on this issue. Clearly, this nursing home is doing something right in this area as it also excelled at keeping its residents out of the hospital. It had only 0.03 hospitalizations per 1,000 long-term resident days, which is an impressively low number.

Short-term Care Quality

This facility received its next highest category score in the area of short-term care. We awarded this facility a B- in this area, which is a reasonably acceptable score. Our short-term care scores are presumably more important for patients needing rehabilitation from their nursing home. Rehabilitation usually mandates more skilled nursing. This includes not just nursing services, but also physical and speech therapy, as well as other variations of therapy. Fortunately, it appear that this facility employs registered nurses. Not all nursing homes employs these skilled professionals. On the other hand, according to the data this nursing home provided, they do not appear to employ physical therapists. Lastly, we considered the percentage of patients that eventually returned home from this facility. We found that 5.4 percent of this facility's patients were able to return home. This figure was quite a bit below the national average.

Nurse Quality

The final area we rated ended up being this facility's worst area. Nevertheless, even in its weakest link we still awarded it an acceptable grade of C in nursing. Our nursing grade looks at the nursing home's level of nurse staffing. We look at both the levels of skill of those nurses as well as the quantity of hours spent with residents. This nursing home provides 0.3 hours of nursing care per resident per day. This is a much lower figure than we are used to seeing. Lastly, while this facility didn't rank well in terms of nursing hours per resident, it performed much better in some of the quality measures we looked at. In terms of the number of its residents sustaining pressure ulcers, this place performed better than average.
