Facility Inspections

Grade: A

The main reason this ended up being a decent nursing home is that it earned an elite inspection grade. Its inspection grade was far superior to its overall score. In our inspections category, we gave it a grade of A. These inspection grades weigh several factors, including deficiencies and federal fines. You can find more information about each of these items by reviewing copies of nursing homes' inspection reports. This particular nursing home had just a single deficiency on its inspection report and it was not one deemed to pose a threat to patient health or safety. Based on this, we had positive view of this nursing home's inspections.

Long-term Care Quality

Grade: B

This facility also received a positive long-term care grade. Indeed, we awarded it a grade of B in this category, which is one of our more favorable scores. Nursing homes that receive this kind of grade in this category typically provide consistent 24/7 care to make sure residents are kept in good health. Once we looked at the quantity of care provided by aids and other staff, we turned to the nursing home's vaccination record. This nursing home vaccinated 98.744774 percent of its patients for pneumonia, which is more than most nursing homes. Finally, this facility was able to limit hospitalizations. It had less than one hospitalization per one thousand long-term resident days, which is an impressively low number.

Short-term Care Quality

Grade: D

This facility's second lowest score was short-term care, where it received a grade of just D in that area. This is a well below average score. With our short-term care score, we try to craft a valuable barometer for rehabilitation services. In this process, we assess the facility's level of highly-skilled nursing services, including both registered nurses and physical therapy, as well as speech therapy. Not surprisingly, we found that this nursing home provides far less physical therapist and registered nurse hours per resident than the average facility. Finally, we looked at the percentage of residents who were able to return to the community from this nursing home. We found that just 0 percent of this facility's residents returned home.

Nurse Quality

Grade: F

The next area we rated was nursing. We gave it a lowly F for this category, which is a rock bottom score. This is obviously a major disappointment. We scrutinized the levels of nurses at the facility, in addition to the number of hours those nurses were with residents, in computing our rating in this area. This place offered only 0.3 hours of nursing care per patient daily. Finally, we also looked at some nursing quality-based metrics in determining our nursing scores. This nursing home performed well in the area of avoiding major falls and pressure ulcers. We consider these statistics to be good indicators of the quality of nursing care.
