Long-term Care Quality

We gave this facility an impressive grade of A for our long-term care grade. This score is more impressive than the facility's overall grade. Facilities that receive this type of score in this category typically provide consistent around the clock care to make sure patients are kept in good health. Once we concluded our assessment of the amount of care provided by nurses, we then looked at the nursing home's vaccination statistics. This nursing home vaccinated 78.260864 percent of its residents for pneumonia. Clearly, this nursing home is doing something right in this area as it also excelled at keeping its patients out of the hospital. Indeed, it had less than one hospitalization per 1,000 long-term resident days, which is a remarkably low figure.

Facility Inspections

In addition, this facility also excelled in inspections, where it received an A-. Our inspection scores account for a host of factors found on a nursing home's inspection reports. One of the most important criteria we look at is the number and severity of deficiencies. Places with better grades in this area usually have few severe deficiencies. Fortunately, although this facility had some minor dings on its inspection report, it had zero severe deficiencies. Severe deficiencies are found in categories G through L. This means CMS did not consider any of the deficiencies on this facility's report to pose an imminent threat to patient health or safety. Finally, this facility had no substantiated complaints this year from residents, which is an excellent sign.

Nurse Quality

One of this facility's better category grades was in the area of nursing care. In that area, we gave this facility a grade of B-. Nursing ratings are tied to nurse staffing levels. 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. Lastly, although this nursing home got docked a bit for its nursing hours per resident, it excelled in a few of our quality measures. With less than five percent of its patients sustaining pressure ulcers, it did remarkably well in this subcategory.

Short-term Care Quality

The last area we graded is short-term care, which turned out to be this facility's least impressive category. It received an abysmal F in this area, which is certainly very disappointing. Short-term care ratings are based on the facility's quantity of skilled nursing services. This means a vast scope of services, ranging from registered nurses to physical and speech therapists, not to mention other types of therapy. In this place's case, it looks like it offers fewer registered nurse and physical therapist hours per patient than a typical facility. The final item we considered in this area is the number of residents that who were able to eventually return home from the facility. This nursing home struggled quite a bit in this area as well, with just 4 percent of its patients returning home.
