Facility Inspections

In addition to being a respectable facility overall, this place also excelled in the area of inspections, where it received a grade of A. Few facilities performed better in this category. These inspection ratings take several factors into consideration, including deficiencies and substantiated complaints. You can find more information about each of these factors by obtaining copies of nursing homes' inspection reports. This place was hit with 4 deficiencies on its inspection report, but none were considered to be major deficiencies. This means that CMS didn't deem any of these deficiencies to cause an immediate risk to resident health or safety. A couple minor deficiencies should not lead you to cross a nursing home off your list.

Long-term Care Quality

This nursing home's second best category ended up being its long-term care score, where it was given a grade of C. Our long-term care grades are more critical for people requiring more conventional services related to personal care. On top of considering the volume of care provided by aids and other staff, we looked at the percentage of residents vaccinated for pneumonia. This nursing home gave the vaccine to 100 percent of its residents, which is better than the average nursing home. This facility was able to keep its residents out of the hospital. In fact, it had only 0.01 hospitalizations per one thousand long-term resident days, which is a remarkably low figure.

Short-term Care Quality

This facility's third best area ended up being its short-term care grade, where it received a grade of C. In calculating our short-term care grades, we quantify the nursing home's skilled nursing services, including those performed by registered nurses, occupational therapists, physical therapists and other types of therapists. The goal is to formulate a barometer for sizing up the rehabilitation services of various facilities. We found that this place was below average in the two key staffing areas we assessed. It supplied fewer registered nurse and physical therapist hours per resident than most other nursing homes. The final measure we assessed in this category is the percentage of residents who ultimately returned home from the facility. We found that just 0 percent of this nursing home's patients returned home.

Nurse Quality

The last area we graded was nursing. Unfortunately, we gave it a lowly F in this area, which is a poor grade. This is obviously a major concern. Our nursing rating considers many data points. The most important factor is the amount of time nurses spend with residents. This facility provided only 0.3 hours of nursing care per resident on a daily basis. This is not a very impressive figure. Finally, we also assessed some nursing quality-based metrics in calculating our nursing grades. This place fared well in the area of minimizing its residents' pressure ulcers and major falls. We consider these metrics to be reliable indicators of the quality of nursing care.
