Facility Inspections

Grade: A-minus

In addition to earning a great overall rating, this nursing home performed even better in our inspections category which is associated with the facility's recent government inspections. We awarded it an A- for this category, which is one of our highest grades. We take several aspects of a facility's inspection report into consideration in calculating our inspection grades. One of those factors is health deficiencies. You should keep in mind that the severity of the deficiencies is usually more important than the quantity of deficiencies, as some deficiencies are quite insignificant. Unfortunately, we weren't able to track down information on deficiency's for this nursing home. Finally, this facility had no substantiated complaints this year from residents, which is an excellent sign.

Long-term Care Quality

Grade: B-plus

This nursing home is also above average in the area of long-term care, where it was awarded a score of B+. It performed better than most nursing homes in this category. When facilities receive a score in this range in this category it typically means it's well-staffed and is an overall good place to live on a permanent basis. One of the statistics we considered in addition to nursing hours is vaccines. This nursing home provided the pneumonia vaccination to 100 percent of its patients. Vaccination is a reliable method to minimize unnecessary deaths and hospitalizations for the aged 65 and up population. Finally, this facility was able to limit hospitalizations. It had less than one hospitalization per one thousand long-term resident days, which is a remarkably low figure.

Short-term Care Quality

Grade: B-minus

This facility's next highest category came in the area of short-term care. In that category, we gave this facility a B-. With our short-term care assessment, we try to craft a valuable barometer for rehabilitation. In doing so, we assess a facility's scope of highly-skilled nursing services, including both registered nurses and physical therapy, as well as occupational therapy. Fortunately, it appear that this nursing home employs registered nurses. Not every facility employs these skilled professionals. However, based on the information this nursing home provided, it does not look like the facility employs physical therapists. The final measure we considered in this category is the number of patients who were able to leave the facility and return to the community. We discovered that just 5.4 percent of this facility's patients were able to return home, which is below average.

Nurse Quality

Grade: C

The last area we graded was nursing. We gave this facility a C in that area. Our nursing score analyzes many factors, but the paramount one is the level of nurse hours per patient per week. This nursing home provides 0.4 hours of nursing care per resident per day. This is a much lower figure than we are used to seeing. Finally, while this nursing home got dinged a bit for its nursing hours, it excelled in some of our quality-based metrics. With fewer than five percent of its patients experiencing pressure ulcers, it fared remarkably well in this subcategory.
