Facility Inspections

Grade: A

To go along with its strong overall grade, we awarded this nursing home a grade of A for our inspections rating. We weigh several aspects of a nursing home's inspection report in calculating these inspection scores. One critical factor is deficiencies. It should be noted that the severity of deficiencies is arguably more meaningful than the quantity of deficiencies, as some of these are quite minor. Although this nursing home had a few deficiencies on its inspection report, none of them were severe based on CMS' deficiency scale. We should point out that deficiency-free inspections are rare in the industry.

Short-term Care Quality

Grade: A-minus

We also awarded this facility a grade of A- for our short-term care score. In determining our short-term care grades, we look at a nursing home's levels of skilled nursing, which includes registered nurses, physical therapists occupational therapists and other licensed professionals. This score is considered to be a solid assessment of a facility's rehabilitation services. Fortunately, it looks like this facility employs registered nurses. Not every facility employs these types of nurses. On the other hand, according to the information they provided, it does not look like the facility employs physical therapists. The final item we looked at in this area is the percentage of patients who were able to leave the facility and return home. We discovered that 5.8 percent of this nursing home's residents returned home.

Long-term Care Quality

Grade: B-plus

This facility was given an impressive long-term care grade as well. We gave it one of our better scores in that area with a grade of B+. When facilities receive this kind of score in this category 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 volume of care provided by nurses aids and other staff, we then analyzed the facility's vaccination record. This nursing home vaccinated 99.8366 percent of its residents against pneumonia. Vaccines are critical to keeping residents healthy. Lastly, this place was able to limit hospitalizations. In fact, it had less than one hospitalization per one thousand long-term resident days, which is an impressively low number.

Nurse Quality

Grade: D

The next category we analyzed is nursing, turned out to be this nursing home's weakest category. We awarded this nursing home a D in this area. This really is one of just a couple of dings of an otherwise impressive report card. When determining a facility's nursing grade, we assess the amount of time nurses spend with patients and the level of licensure of the nurses. This nursing home provided only 0.3 hours of nursing care per patient per day. This is a very low total compared to most nursing homes. While this nursing home's nursing hours were below average, it surprised us in some of the qualitative metrics in this category. In particular, we were pleased to find that its patients are sustaining fewer pressure ulcers than most nursing homes.
