Facility Inspections

Grade: A

To go along with its favorable overall score, we awarded this facility an A for the area of inspections. These inspection ratings weigh several factors, including deficiencies and federal fines. You can learn more about each of these issues by reviewing copies of nursing homes' inspection reports. While this facility had some deficiencies on its government inspection report, none of them were serious based on CMS' deficiency scale. The fact that none of the deficiencies were severe made us feel better about this inspection report.

Short-term Care Quality

Grade: B-plus

Additionally, this nursing home also was given favorable short-term care grades in our assessment. In fact, we gave them one of our stronger scores in that category, with a score of B+. Our short-term care ratings are important for residents looking for rehabilitation. Rehabilitation usually requires additional skilled nursing services. Skilled nursing means a broad scope of services, ranging from registered nurses to physical and occupational therapists, as well as other types of therapy. Fortunately, it looks like this nursing home has registered nurses on staff. Not every facility employs these types of nurses. On the other hand, according to the data they provided, they do not appear to employ physical therapists. The final statistic we assessed in this category is the percentage of patients who were able to leave the nursing home and return to the community. We found that 5.7 percent of this facility's residents returned home.

Long-term Care Quality

Grade: B

The next area we graded is long-term care. This nursing home was awarded a very positive long-term care grade, with a B in the area. Nursing homes that do well in long-term care tend to be well-staffed and provide extensive hands on care to residents. After looking at the amount of care provided by nurses and other staff, we then analyzed the nursing home's vaccination statistics. This facility vaccinated 99.75247 percent of its patients for pneumonia, which is much higher than the average nursing home. Clearly, this place is doing something right in this area as it was able to keep its patients out of the hospital. It had less than one hospitalization per one thousand long-term resident days, which is a remarkably low number.

Nurse Quality

Grade: B

The last category we analyzed was nursing, in which this nursing home was given a grade of B. This nursing home turned out to be relatively strong in each category we looked at. Our nursing rating assesses the nursing home's level of nurse staffing. We factor in both the levels of training of the nurses and the quantity of hours spent with residents. This nursing home averages 0.4 hours of nursing care per resident per day. Finally, we also looked at a few quality-based metrics in determining our nursing grades. This place excelled in these areas, with excellent scores for minimizing its residents' major falls and pressure ulcers. These areas are generally reliable indicators of the quality of nursing care a nursing home provides.
