Facility Inspections

Grade: A-plus

In addition to receiving a strong overall grade, this nursing home also received an A+ inspection rating. This is based on the facility's recent government inspections. An A+ in this category is one of the best complements we can pay to a nursing home. These inspection grades weigh several factors, including deficiencies and substantiated complaints. You can learn more about each of these issues by reviewing copies of nursing homes' inspection reports. While this facility had a few deficiencies on its report, none of them were severe based on CMS' scale. Finally, this facility had no substantiated complaints this year from residents, which is an excellent sign.

Long-term Care Quality

Grade: B-plus

An additional strong feature for this facility is that it received an above average long-term care grade. In fact, this wound up being its second best category grade. In this category, we awarded this nursing home a B+. Long-term care scores in this range generally require both 24/7 care from nurses and aids, as well as quality routine healthcare services. After assessing the amount of care provided by aids and other staff, we next considered the nursing home's vaccination statistics. This facility vaccinated 94.029854 percent of its patients for pneumonia, which is higher than the majority of nursing homes. Lastly, this place was able to limit hospitalizations. It had only 0.01 hospitalizations per 1,000 long-term resident days, which is a remarkably low number.

Nurse Quality

Grade: B

In addition, this facility also received favorable nursing grades this year. In fact, we awarded them one of our better scores in that area, with a grade of B. In calculating a facility's nursing grade, we assess the quantity of hours nurses are seeing residents and the level of licensure of the nurses. This nursing home averages 0.3 hours of nursing care per resident per day. Finally, we also looked at several nursing quality-based metrics and this facility excelled in some of these areas. With less than five percent of its residents sustaining pressure ulcers, it performed as well as any place the country in this category. This is generally a good indicator of quality nursing care. Pressure ulcers can often be prevented by offering better nursing care, such as having a policy of moving residents more often.

Short-term Care Quality

Grade: B-minus

The final category we graded is short-term care, where this facility was awarded a grade of B-. This is this facility's least impressive category. This is nevertheless not the end of the world. Our short-term care grade is often used to grade a facility's performance with rehabilitation. In order to provide quality rehabilitation services, nursing homes generally must provide better levels of highly skilled nursing services. These types of services include registered nurses, physical therapists, speech therapists and other licensed professionals. Unfortunately, it doesn't look like this nursing home provided registered nurse or physical therapist staffing data. Finally, we considered the number of residents who were able to return to the community from this facility. We found that 0 percent of this facility's residents returned home. At most nursing homes, closer to half of their residents are able to return home so this figure is below average.
