Short-term Care Quality

Grade: B-plus

We wanted to point out that this nursing home' short-term care score outperformed its overall score. In fact, we awarded it a B+ for its short-term care grade, which is one of our better scores. This propped up its overall score. Short-term care grades are vital for people seeking rehabilitation. Rehabilitation typically utilizes more skilled nursing services. This means a broad scope of nursing services, ranging from registered nurses to physical and occupational therapists, as well as other types of therapy. It does not appear that this nursing home provided registered nurse or physical therapist staffing data. Finally, we considered the percentage of residents who were able to return to the community from this nursing home. We found that 6.3 percent of this nursing home's residents returned home.

Nurse Quality

Grade: B

This facility also excelled in nursing, where it received an B. When determining our nursing grades, we look at both the number of hours nurses spend with residents and the skill levels of those nurses. This nursing home provides 0.4 hours of nursing care per resident per day. Finally, we also looked at several nursing quality measures and this place excelled in some of these areas. With less than five percent of its residents sustaining pressure ulcers, it performed as well as any place California in this category. This is generally a good indicator of quality nursing care. Pressure ulcers can typically be avoided by providing better nursing care, such as employing a system of moving patients at least once a day.

Long-term Care Quality

Grade: D

Unfortunately, this nursing home's third best score was long-term care. However, with a grade of D in this category, it still performed somewhat poorly. Long-term care ratings of this caliber generally are a bad sign for the quantity and quality of care provided by nurses and aids, as well as the levels of routine medical care available. Once we looked at the volume of care provided by nurses aids and other staff, we then looked at the nursing home's vaccination data. We were concerned by the fact that this nursing home vaccinated just 80.350876 percent of its patients for pneumonia. To our surprise, this place actually fared well at keeping its residents out of the hospital. Indeed, it had only 0.01 hospitalizations per 1,000 long-term resident days. This is its best score in this category.

Facility Inspections

Grade: D

Unfortunately, this facility did not receive a favorable inspection grade. We gave it a just D in this category. Inspection grades relate to a facility's government inspections. We weight poor inspection scores heavily in our assessment. Since the inspections are completed by independent inspectors, we consider this data to be reliable. Inspection grades weigh several factors found on a nursing home's inspection reports. One key criteria we weigh heavily is the quantity and severity of deficiencies. This particular facility was assessed 3 deficiencies on its inspection report. The only positive thing we can say is that none of the deficiencies were in the categories that indicate that they created a threat to resident safety or health. Finally, this facility also received 11 substantiated complaints in recent years. This is yet another bad sign.
