Facility Inspections

Grade: A-plus

To pair with its favorable overall score, we gave this place an A+ for our inspections rating. Inspection scores are based on many items located in the a nursing home's recent inspection reports. Facilities that excel in this category typically have very few deficiencies on their reports. Most importantly, these places generally do not have any severe deficiencies which are associated with risks to patient safety. While this place had some minor dings on its government inspection report, it had zero severe deficiencies. Severe deficiencies are found in categories G, H, I, J, K and L. This tells you that the government inspectors didn't consider any of the deficiencies on this facility's report to pose an imminent threat to patient safety or health. Finally, this facility had no substantiated complaints this year from residents, which is an excellent sign.

Long-term Care Quality

Grade: A-minus

Among this facility's other achievements is its top-shelf long-term care score. We gave them one of our more favorable grades in that category, with a grade of A-. Nursing homes that do well in this category typically are well-staffed and provide extensive hands on care to patients. Once we looked at the quantity of care provided by nurses aids and other staff, we then analyzed the facility's vaccination statistics. This facility vaccinated 99.24812 percent of its patients for pneumonia, which is significantly higher than the vast majority of nursing homes. Lastly, this place was able to limit hospitalizations. In fact, it had only 0.02 hospitalizations per one thousand long-term resident days, which is a remarkably low figure.

Nurse Quality

Grade: C

Turning to the category of nursing care, this facility didn't perform quite as well in this area as some of the categories discussed above. Nevertheless, a grade of C in this category is by no means a bad score. When computing a facility's nursing grade, we assess the quantity of hours nurses are caring for patients and the level of licensure of the nurses. This place provides only 0.3 hours of nursing care per patient per day. This is a somewhat discouraging figure as it is well below the national average. Despite having low quantities of nursing care, this place actually fared better in some of the quality-based metrics we assessed. It scored well in terms of avoiding major falls and pressure ulcers.

Short-term Care Quality

Grade: D

This facility's worst category is short-term care, which is the last category we analyzed. For this category, we gave this facility a grade of just D. In our short-term care assessment, we attempt to craft a valuable gauge for rehabilitation services. In doing so, we analyze a facility's scope of skilled nursing services, including both registered nurses and physical therapy, as well as speech therapy. It appears that this facility was subpar in several staffing areas we assessed. In fact, it offered fewer registered nurse and physical therapist hours per patient than most facilities. The last item we considered in this category is the percentage of patients who were able to leave the nursing home and return to the community. We discovered that just 4.3 percent of this facility's residents were able to return home, which is well below average. The combination of these subpar metrics sunk this facility's short-term care grade.
