Facility Inspections

Grade: A-minus

We want to point out that this facility really outperformed its overall grade in the category of inspections. In fact, it received a nearly flawless government inspection report this year. As a result, it received one of our highest scores in that area with a grade of A-. We take several aspects of a facility's inspection report into consideration in determining our inspection grades. One of those factors is health deficiencies. It should be noted that the severity of the deficiencies is arguably more meaningful than the number of deficiencies, as some of these end up being relatively minor. While this nursing home had some deficiencies on its inspection report, none of them were serious based on CMS' scale. The fact that none of the deficiencies were severe leaves us less concerned with this inspection report.

Nurse Quality

Grade: B-minus

This nursing home's nursing grade appears to be one of its better features. The facility received a grade of B- in this category. We scrutinized the skill-level of nurses working for the facility, as well as the quantity of time those nurses spent with patients, in calculating our rating in this category. 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, although this nursing home got docked a bit for nursing hours, it excelled in a few of our quality metrics. With less than five percent of its residents suffering from pressure ulcers, it fared very well in this area.

Long-term Care Quality

Grade: B-minus

This facility's next best category turned out to be its long-term care grade, where it received a B-. Our long-term care ratings are more critical for people requiring more conventional assistance associated with activities of daily living. On top of assessing the volume of care provided by nurses aids and other staff, we also looked at the percentage of residents vaccinated against pneumonia. Thankfully, this facility administered the vaccine to 96.68508 percent of its residents, which is a very solid percentage. This facility was able to keep its patients out of the hospital. Indeed, it had only 0.02 hospitalizations per 1,000 long-term resident days, which is an impressively low number.

Short-term Care Quality

Grade: C

Our next category is short-term care, where we gave this nursing home a grade of C in that area. Our short-term care scores are important for residents needing rehabilitation. Rehabilitation usually utilizes more highly-skilled nursing services. Skilled nursing includes a wide spectrum of services, ranging from registered nurses to physical and occupational therapists, as well as other types of therapy. Unfortunately, we were not able to track down information about this nursing home's registered nurse or physical therapy staffing. Lastly, we looked at the percentage of patients who were able to return to the community from this facility. We found that 4.6 percent of this facility's patients returned home. At most nursing homes, closer to half of their patients are able to return home so this figure is below average.
