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. Finally, this facility had no substantiated complaints this year from residents, which is an excellent sign.

Long-term Care Quality

Grade: A-minus

Another strength of this nursing home is its very strong score in long-term care. We awarded them one of our more favorable scores in that area, with a grade of A-. In a long-term care environment, the facility's primary objective is to keep patients healthy and safe. This is different than skilled nursing or short-term care where the goal is to rehabilitate patients. In addition to looking at the quantity of care provided by nurses and other staff, we analyzed the number of residents vaccinated against pneumonia. This nursing home gave the vaccine to 49.377594 percent of its patients. This is a few points below what we were hoping for but still a reasonably acceptable percentage. Although its vaccination rate was a bit lower than we hoped for, this place was able to limit hospitalizations. 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: D

This nursing home's second lowest category is short-term care, where it received just a D in that category. This is a well below average score. Short-term care ratings are based in part on a nursing home's quantity of highly-skilled highly skilled professionals. This means a wide range of nursing services, ranging from registered nurses to physical and respiratory therapists, not to mention other types of therapy. Unfortunately, we found that this nursing home provided fewer physical therapist and registered nurse hours per resident than most other facilities. Lastly, we assessed the number of residents who were able to return to the community from this facility. We found that just 0 percent of this facility's residents returned home.

Nurse Quality

Grade: D

The next category we analyzed is nursing. We gave this nursing home a D in our nursing category, making this the facility's weakest category. Nursing grades are based in large part on quantity of nursing care available. This facility provided just 0.3 hours of nursing care per resident per day. This is a very low total compared to most nursing homes. Finally, we also assessed some nursing quality measures in calculating our nursing scores. This place performed well when it comes to avoiding major falls and pressure ulcers.
