Nurse Quality

Grade: A-plus

While this nursing home's overall grade was decent, it really excelled in nursing. We awarded it an A+ for that category, which is one of our highest scores. Our nursing grade consists of quite a few factors, however, the paramount consideration is the level of nurse hours spent with patients. This facility provided 0.5 hours of nursing care per resident per day. Lastly, we also assessed some nursing quality measures in determining our nursing grades. This place performed very well in the area of avoiding major falls and pressure ulcers. We consider these areas to be good indicators of the quality of nursing care.

Long-term Care Quality

Grade: A-minus

Turning to another strength for this nursing home, we awarded it a very strong long-term care score. Indeed, we gave this facility a score of A-. Nursing homes that excel in long-term care tend to provide patients with closer supervision and stay on top of routine medical care. In addition to assessing the quantity of care provided by aids and other staff, we looked at the number of residents vaccinated for pneumonia. This nursing home provided the vaccine to 97.57413 percent of its residents, which is an impressive figure. Pneumonia is too frequently a dangerous health condition for nursing home patients so we prefer when a facility doesn't leave this to chance. Finally, this place was able to limit hospitalizations. It had only 0.02 hospitalizations per one thousand long-term resident days, which is a remarkably low number.

Short-term Care Quality

Grade: B

This facility also was awarded an impressive score in our short-term care category. We gave this nursing home an above average grade of B in this category. Our short-term care grades are crucial for people needing rehabilitation. Rehabilitation typically requires higher levels of highly-skilled nursing services. This means a wide range of nursing services, spanning from registered nurses to physical and speech therapists, as well as other forms of therapy. Fortunately, it looks like this nursing home employs registered nurses. Not all nursing homes employs these skilled professionals. On the other hand, according to the data this nursing home provided, they do not appear to employ physical therapists. The last datapoint we assessed in this area is the number of patients who were able to leave the facility and return home. We discovered that 3.9 percent of this facility's patients were able to return home.

Facility Inspections

Grade: D

In our final category of inspections, we gave this nursing home a D. This turned out to be this facility's worst grade and it really hurt its overall grade. Our inspection rating is based on the facility's government inspection reports. Since the data is collected by government inspectors, we weight it heavily in overall grade. Inspection grades factor in many items found on the nursing home's recent inspection reports. When you find severe deficiencies on the inspection reports, this is generally the worst sign. Severe deficiencies indicate a threat to patient safety. This particular facility had multiple category G through L deficiencies, which are among the more serious deficiencies. These categories indicate that the deficiencies found by CMS had potential to cause actual harm to patients. Finally, this facility also received 2 substantiated complaints in recent years. This is yet another bad sign.
