Facility Inspections

Grade: A

While this nursing home's overall grade was not bad, it really excelled in the category of inspections. In fact, we awarded it a grade of A for that category, which is one of our highest scores. Arguably the most important factor we consider in calculating our inspection scores is deficiencies. These deficiencies can be found on a nursing home's inspection reports. Facilities with better grades in this category typically dodged the most severe deficiencies involving patient abuse or death. While this place had some minor dings on its government inspection report, it had no severe deficiencies. Severe deficiencies are ones found in categories G, H, I, J, K and L. This means that the government inspectors didn't deem any of the deficiencies on this facility's report to pose an imminent threat to patient health or safety. The fact that none of the deficiencies were severe made us feel better about this inspection report.

Long-term Care Quality

Grade: B-minus

One of this facility's better category scores came in the category of long-term care. This proved to be its second best category. In that area, we gave this facility a grade of B-. In the area of long-term care, we weigh the quantity of care provided by a facility, rather than more healthcare-oriented services. After considering the quantity of care provided by nurses and other staff, we turned to the nursing home's vaccination records. Frankly, we were a bit worried that this facility vaccinated 49.39759 percent of its patients for pneumonia, which is significantly lower than what we expected. Nevertheless, this place was able to keep its residents out of the hospital. It had less than one hospitalization per 1,000 long-term resident days, which is an impressively low number.

Nurse Quality

Grade: B-minus

This facility's next best category was its nursing grade, where it received a grade of B-. There are numerous criteria included in this area. Many of these subcategories reflect levels of nurse staffing. This nursing home averages just 0.3 hours of nursing care per resident per day. This is a very low figure. Lastly, despite not having the highest total nursing hours per resident, this place actually performed admirably in the area of preventing major falls. This is typically an indicator that a place has sufficient quality controls in place.

Short-term Care Quality

Grade: D

Turning to our final category, we gave this facility a grade of D in the area of short-term care. This is the nursing home's least impressive category rating. Sadly, this grade pulled down the nursing home's overall grade to a certain degree. Our short-term care scores are based in part on a facility's quantity of skilled nursing services. This includes a broad scope 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. Finally, we looked at the number of residents who were able to return to the community from this nursing home. We found that just 0 percent of this nursing home's residents returned home.

Founders Plaza Nursing & Rehab Quality Metrics

Minimizes Pressure Ulcers

Grade: A

In Founders Plaza Nursing & Rehab, 7.17% of Patients had Pressure Ulcers

This datapoint is a measure of the percent of long-term residents that are suffering from new or worsened pressure ulcers or bed sores. We factor in this statistic in computing our nursing grades.

Minimizes Serious Falls

Grade: A

In Founders Plaza Nursing & Rehab, 3.38% of Patients had Serious Falls

This figure indicates the percent of long-term patients which sustained falls which resulted in severe injury. Falls can arise for a variety of reasons, but high rates of falls resulting in injuries could be an indicator of lower levels of patient supervision.

Minimizes Urinary Tract Infections

Grade: A+

In Founders Plaza Nursing & Rehab, 1.52% of Patients had UTIs

This is the percentage of patients who sustained a urinary tract infection. Urinary tract infections are often linked to nursing homes with worse hygiene protocols.

Grade: A-minus

In Founders Plaza Nursing & Rehab, 10.14% of Patients use Anti-Psychotic Medication

Unfortunately, in limited cases, high levels of antipsychotic drug use may mean that a nursing home is using these medications to subdue residents.
