Facility Inspections

Grade: B-plus

On top of having a decent overall rating, we also want to point out that this place received favorable government inspections in recent years. We awarded it one of our better grades in this category, with a B+. This is a notably better grade than the nursing home's overall score. Our inspection ratings account for several factors found on a nursing home's inspection report. One of the most important criteria we consider is the number and severity of deficiencies. Nursing homes with higher grades in this area typically have few severe deficiencies. Although this facility had a few deficiencies on its report, none of them were major deficiencies based on CMS' scale. A few minor deficiencies should not stop you from considering a nursing home.

Short-term Care Quality

Grade: B

Another one of this facility's more favorable category grades was in the category of short-term care. In that area, we gave this facility a grade of B. It actually outpaced most nursing homes in this category. Our short-term care ratings are crucial for residents in need of rehabilitation. Rehabilitation usually mandates more skilled nursing services. This includes a vast range of nursing services, spanning from registered nurses to physical and occupational therapists, as well as other variations of therapy. Fortunately, it appear that this facility has registered nurses on staff. Not every nursing home employs these skilled professionals. However, based on the data this nursing home provided, it does not look like the facility employs physical therapists. Finally, we looked at the percentage of patients who were able to return to the community from this nursing home. We found that 6 percent of this facility's residents returned home.

Nurse Quality

Grade: B

We also awarded this facility a favorable grade in nursing. This facility earned a grade of B in this category, which is one of our better grades. There are numerous factors included in this grade. Most of these subcategories reflect nurse staffing. This nursing home provides 0.3 hours of nursing care per resident per day. Lastly, we also looked at some nursing quality measures in determining our nursing grades. This nursing home 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: F

Turning to our fourth area, this facility really didn't fare well. Due to a rock bottom grade of F in long-term care, this is this nursing home's worst category. Nursing homes that receive this kind of score in this category likely don't provide the type of consistent 24/7 care that some other facilities provide. After considering the quantity of care provided by nurses, we turned to the facility's vaccination record. We were a bit concerned this facility vaccinated only 66.467064 percent of its patients for pneumonia. Surprisingly, this nursing home actually fared well at keeping its patients out of the hospital. In fact, it had just 0.01 hospitalizations per 1,000 long-term resident days. This was its best feature in this category.
