Facility Inspections

Grade: B-plus

It should be noted that this nursing home's inspection rating outpaced its overall score. We gave it a grade of B+ for its inspections grade, which is one of our better scores. Our inspection scores are tied to many items found on the a nursing home's recent inspection reports. Facilities that excel in this area tend to have very few deficiencies on those reports. Most importantly, these places should not have any severe deficiencies which are associated with risks to patient safety. This place was hit with 5 deficiencies on its inspection report, but fortunately none of the deficiencies were considered to be severe deficiencies. This indicates that CMS did not consider any of these deficiencies to pose an immediate risk to patient health or safety. Finally, this facility had no substantiated complaints this year from residents, which is always a good sign.

Long-term Care Quality

Grade: B-plus

This facility also was given an impressive long-term care score. Indeed, we gave it a grade of B+ in this area, which is one of our more favorable scores. Facilities that do well in long-term care typically are well-staffed and offer extensive hands on care to residents. After considering the volume of care provided by nurses and other staff, we then looked at the facility's vaccination record. This facility vaccinated 98.17629 percent of its residents against pneumonia, which is more than the average nursing home. Clearly, this facility is doing something right in this area as it also excelled at keeping its patients out of the hospital. It had only 0.01 hospitalizations per one thousand long-term resident days, which is a remarkably low number.

Short-term Care Quality

Grade: C

This nursing home's third most favorable area was short-term care. We gave it a C in this category. This is basically a middle of the road score in this category. Short-term care grades are based in part on the facility's quantity of skilled highly skilled professionals. This means a vast spectrum of services, spanning from registered nurses to physical and speech therapists, not to mention other forms of therapy. Unfortunately, this facility was below average in terms of its quantity of physical therapy and registered nurse hours provided to its residents based on the metrics we assessed. The important question is whether this also affected quality of care. Lastly, we looked at the percentage of patients who were able to return to the community from this nursing home. We found that 5 percent of this facility's patients returned home. At most facilities, closer to half of their residents are able to return home so this figure is below average.

Nurse Quality

Grade: D

Switching gears to the final category, we gave this facility a grade of D in nursing. This was the nursing home's least impressive category rating. Nursing ratings are mostly tied to a nursing home's nurse staffing. This nursing home averaged a meager 0.3 hours of nursing care per patient on a daily basis. Lastly, we also assessed some nursing quality-based metrics in determining our nursing ratings. This facility performed well in terms of avoiding pressure ulcers and major falls. Many consider these data points to be reliable measures of the quality of nursing care.
