Facility Inspections

Grade: A-plus

In addition to being a strong facility overall, it also received A+ inspections in recent years. Its inspections are nearly perfect. Inspection scores are tied to many datapoints found on the a nursing home's recent inspection reports. Places that score well in this area have few deficiencies on those reports. Most importantly, these nursing homes should not have any severe deficiencies which are associated with risks to patient safety. This facility was assessed 2 deficiencies on its inspection report, but none were considered to be severe. This means that CMS did not deem any of the deficiencies to pose an immediate threat to patient health or safety. Finally, this facility had no substantiated complaints this year from residents, which is an excellent sign.

Nurse Quality

Grade: A

We also wanted to emphasize the fact that this facility received an impressive grade of A in our nursing category. Nursing grades are mostly tied to the nursing home's nurse staffing. This nursing home provides 0.4 hours of nursing care per resident per day. Finally, our nursing grades also factor in quality-based assessments, such as avoiding major falls. This place performed well in this area. Avoiding major falls is typically a good indicator that a place has reliable quality controls in place. Major falls can often be avoided if more nurses aids and better safety protocols are in place.

Long-term Care Quality

Grade: A-minus

This facility also was given a first-rate long-term care grade. Indeed, this turned out to be this facility's third strongest category grade. In that category, this facility received a score of A-. When facilities receive a score in this range in long-term care it generally means it's well-staffed and is a quality place to reside on a permanent basis. In addition to considering the volume of care provided by aids and other staff, we analyzed the percentage of residents vaccinated for pneumonia. This nursing home vaccinated 97.23618 percent of its residents. Vaccines are critical to keeping patients healthy. Clearly, this place is doing something right in this area as it was able to keep its residents out of the hospital. In fact, it had only 0.01 hospitalizations per 1,000 long-term resident days, which is a remarkably low number.

Short-term Care Quality

Grade: B-minus

The next category we analyzed is short-term care, where this nursing home was awarded a B-. This actually ended up being this facility's weakest category. This is nevertheless a middle of the pack score. In the area of short-term care, we try to assess measures of a nursing home's rehabilitation. We look at a facility's skilled nursing services, including those performed by registered nurses and physical and occupational therapists. Fortunately, it appear that this nursing home employs registered nurses. Not every nursing home employs these skilled professionals. On the other hand, based on the information this nursing home provided, they do not appear to employ physical therapists. The last item we looked at in this category is the percentage of patients that were able to return home from the nursing home. We found that just 3.2 percent of this nursing home's residents returned home. This figure was below the national average.
