Nurse Quality

Grade: B-plus

Part of the reason this turned out to be a decent nursing home is that it earned a very favorable nursing rating. Its nursing rating is its best category. In this area, we gave this facility a B+. Our nursing grade assesses many subcategories, most of which are based on levels of nurse staffing. This particular nursing home provided 0.3 hours of nursing care per resident per day. Lastly, we also looked at some nursing quality-based metrics in determining our nursing grades. This nursing home performed very well in terms of minimizing its residents' pressure ulcers and major falls. We consider these areas to be good indicators of the quality of nursing care.

Facility Inspections

Grade: B

This nursing home's second best category is inspections. In that area, we gave this facility a B. It actually outperformed most nursing homes in this category. Our inspection scores are tied to several pieces of information located in the a nursing home's recent government inspections. Places that excel in this category typically have very few deficiencies on their reports. Most importantly, these facilities should not have any severe deficiencies which are associated with risks to patient safety. This facility was assessed 4 deficiencies on its inspection report, but fortunately none were considered to be severe deficiencies. This means that CMS did not consider any of these deficiencies an immediate risk to resident health or safety. A couple of minor deficiencies shouldn't stop you from considering a nursing home.

Short-term Care Quality

Grade: B

This nursing home also received a strong short-term care score. In fact, we awarded it a grade of B in this area, which happens to be one of our better. Short-term care grades are based in part on the nursing home's quantity of skilled skilled healthcare professionals. This means a wide scope of services, spanning from registered nurses to physical and respiratory therapists, in addition to other variations of therapy. Fortunately, it looks like this nursing home employs registered nurses. Not all nursing homes employs these types of nurses. On the other hand, based on the data they provided, they do not appear to employ physical therapists. Lastly, we assessed the number of patients that who were able to eventually return home from this nursing home. We found that 0 percent of this facility's patients were able to return home.

Long-term Care Quality

Grade: F

The last category we assessed was long-term care, which was this nursing home's least impressive category. We gave it a lowly F in this category, which is certainly a major disappointment. If you are looking for anything other than rehabilitation, you should take a close look at each facility's long-term care ratings. In addition to assessing the volume of care provided by nurses and other staff, we analyzed the percentage of residents vaccinated for pneumonia. This facility administered the vaccine to 94.84536 percent of its patients. Surprisingly, this place also keeps its patients out of the hospital. It had just 0 hospitalizations per 1,000 long-term resident days. Unfortunately, some of its other scores in this category were not as favorable as these.
