Facility Inspections

Grade: A

To go along with its relatively modest overall grade, we awarded this facility an A for our inspections rating. This grade is far better than its overall score. Inspection ratings account for several factors found on a nursing home's inspection reports. One key criteria we rely on is the number and severity of deficiencies. Nursing homes with better scores in this category usually have very few of these severe deficiencies. This nursing home received 3 deficiencies on its inspection report, but we were relieved to see that none of the deficiencies were considered to be severe deficiencies. This means that the government inspectors didn't deem any of the deficiencies to create an immediate threat to patient health or safety. A couple minor deficiencies should not stop you from considering a nursing home.

Long-term Care Quality

Grade: B-minus

The next best category we gave this facility in any area came in the category of long-term care, where we gave it a B-. Long-term care grades assess a nursing home's assistance with daily living rather than the highly skilled nursing or healthcare services that are critical to a rehabilitation facility. On top of looking at the quantity of care provided by nurses aids and other staff, we analyzed the number of residents vaccinated against pneumonia. This facility gave the vaccine to 81.97425 percent of its residents. This is quite a bit less than what we were hoping for. Nevertheless, this nursing home keeps its residents out of the hospital. In fact, it had less than one hospitalization per 1,000 long-term resident days, which is an impressively low figure.

Short-term Care Quality

Grade: C

We also gave this nursing home a respectable grade in the category of short-term care, where we gave it a grade of C. Our short-term care ratings are likely more important for those in need of rehabilitation from their nursing home. Rehabilitation generally requires higher levels of skilled nursing services. This includes not just nursing services, but also physical and speech therapy, as well as other types of therapy. In this facility's case, we were surprised to learn that it actually provides less registered nurse and physical therapist hours per resident than the typical facility. Lastly, we assessed the number of patients that returned home from this facility. We found that 0 percent of this facility's residents were able to return home. This figure was actually well below the national average.

Nurse Quality

Grade: D

Turning to our final area, we gave this nursing home a D for our nursing category. This was the nursing home's worst category rating. Our nursing grade is mostly associated with the facility's nurse staffing. With a meager 0.3 hours of nursing care per patient daily, this facility's nurse staffing levels were well below the national average. In addition to rating below average in nursing hours per resident, this nursing home also had poor marks in the quality-based measures we looked at in calculating our nursing ratings. We looked at the percent of patients sustaining major falls and pressure ulcers. This facility was at approximately 150 percent of the national average in both of these data points. This is likely a bad sign when you consider that many bed sores and falls are preventable with better nursing care. These scores helped pull down this nursing home's nursing grade quite a bit.
