Facility Inspections

Grade: B-plus

On top of receiving a quality overall score, this nursing home also received impressive government inspections in recent years. We awarded them a favorable score in this category, with a B+. Perhaps the most important factor we look at in determining our inspection scores is deficiencies. These deficiencies can be found on a nursing home's inspection reports. Nursing homes with higher grades in this area typically dodged the most severe deficiencies involving patient abuse or death. Fortunately, although this facility had a few minor dings on its government inspection report, it had no severe deficiencies. Severe deficiencies are ones found in categories G, H, I, J, K and L. This means CMS did not consider any of the deficiencies on this facility's report to pose an imminent threat to patient safety or health. A few minor deficiencies are not something to panic about.

Short-term Care Quality

Grade: B-plus

This nursing home was given a strong short-term care grade as well. We awarded it one of our higher scores in that area with a score of B+. Our short-term care scores are probably more meaningful for those requiring a nursing home for rehabilitation. Rehabilitation typically mandates additional skilled nursing services. Skilled nursing includes not merely nursing services, but also physical and respiratory therapy, as well as other forms of therapy. Fortunately, it looks like this facility has registered nurses on staff. Not every facility employs these types of nurses. However, according to the information this nursing home provided, it does not look like the facility employs physical therapists. The final metric we considered in this category is the number of residents who who were able to eventually return home from the nursing home. We found that 0 percent of this nursing home's patients returned home as opposed to remaining at the nursing home on a permanent basis.

Nurse Quality

Grade: B-plus

This nursing home also received a strong nursing score. In fact, we awarded it an above average grade of B+ in this area. When determining a facility's nursing grade, we look at the quantity of hours nurses are caring for patients and the skill levels of those nurses. This nursing home provides 0.4 hours of nursing care per resident per day. Lastly, we also looked at some nursing quality-based metrics in determining our nursing grades. This place performed very well in the area of minimizing its residents' major falls and pressure ulcers. We consider these areas to be good indicators of the quality of nursing care.

Long-term Care Quality

Grade: B-minus

Moving on to the final area, this facility received a decent long-term care score of B-. Long-term care grades are meaningful for people seeking non-healthcare services such as personal care. Once we concluded our assessment of the quantity of nursing care, we turned to the nursing home's vaccination records. This facility vaccinated 92.2807 percent of its residents for pneumonia. Nevertheless, this nursing home excelled at keeping its patients out of the hospital. In fact, it had less than one hospitalization per one thousand long-term resident days, which is a remarkably low number.
