Facility Inspections
To pair with its relatively modest overall score, we awarded this nursing home an A for our inspections rating. This grade is far more impressive than its overall score. Inspection ratings take several factors into consideration, including deficiencies and substantiated complaints. You can find more information about each of these items by obtaining copies of nursing homes' inspection reports. Unfortunately, we were not able to locate deficiency data for this nursing home. Without having access to the deficiency related data for this nursing home, it was difficult to assess the place in this area.
Nurse Quality
One of the other reasons we rated this facility so highly is that it earned a very impressive nursing score. In that category, we awarded this facility an B. The nursing rating is based on many factors. The most heavily weighted factor is the number of hours nurses spent with patients. This nursing home averages 3.4 hours of nursing care per resident per day. Finally, we also assessed several nursing quality-based metrics 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 facility West Virginia in this category. This is generally a good indicator of quality nursing care. Pressure ulcers can typically be prevented by providing better nursing care, such as having a system of turning a patient at least once a day.
Long-term Care Quality
Additionally, we awarded this nursing home a B in our long-term care category. This is one of our more impressive scores. When nursing homes receive this kind of score in this category it is typically a good sign for resident care and indicates that the place is well-staffed with nurses aids. After we finished looking at the amount of care provided by nurses, we then analyzed the facility's vaccination data. This facility vaccinated 94.5 percent of its residents for pneumonia, which is an impressive figure. Pneumonia is often a deadly illness for nursing home patients so we prefer when a nursing home doesn't take any chances. Finally, we looked at the facility's number of hospitalizations. With 1.72 hospitalizations per one thousand long-term resident days, this facility was close to average in this area.
Short-term Care Quality
The next area we scored was short-term care, which was this facility's weakest category. We awarded this facility a grade of D in this category. Sadly, this category hurt the nursing home's overall profile a bit. Our short-term care grade is commonly used to judge a facility's performance with rehabilitation. To offer good rehabilitation services, nursing homes generally must feature better levels of skilled nursing services. These types of services include registered nurses, physical therapists, occupational therapists and other highly trained professionals. It looks like this facility was subpar in several staffing areas we assessed. In fact, it offered fewer registered nurse and physical therapist hours per resident than most other nursing homes. The final metric we assessed in this area is the number of residents who were able to leave the nursing home and return to the community. We discovered that just 40.2 percent of this facility's residents were able to return home, which is well below average. The combination of these poor metrics sunk this facility's short-term care score.
