Facility Inspections

Grade: B-plus

One of the reasons this turned out to be a decent facility is it earned a favorable inspection score. In this area, we awarded this nursing home a B+. These inspection ratings weigh several factors, including deficiencies and substantiated complaints. You can find more information about each of these factors by reviewing copies of nursing homes' inspection reports. This particular nursing home received 8 deficiencies on its inspection report. Overall, this is still a good inspection report, but we'd always recommend looking into any deficiencies you find troubling.

Short-term Care Quality

Grade: B

Another one of this nursing home's higher category grades was in the area of short-term care. In that area, we awarded this facility a grade of B. It actually outpaced most nursing homes in this category. Short-term care grades are often used to gauge a nursing home's rehabilitation services. In order to have high-end rehabilitation services, nursing homes generally must offer higher levels of highly skilled nursing. Skilled nursing includes registered nurses, physical therapists, occupational therapists and other highly trained professionals. Unfortunately, we weren't able to find information about this nursing home's registered nurse or physical therapy staffing. The final metric we considered in this category is the percentage of residents that who were able to eventually return home from the facility. We found that 5.9 percent of this nursing home's patients returned home as opposed to remaining at the facility on a permanent basis.

Long-term Care Quality

Grade: C

The next area we looked at is long-term care, where this nursing home was given a grade of C in this category. Our long-term care grade is typically used to measure a facility's performance as a traditional convalescent home, as opposed to focusing more on the skilled nursing services offered by a rehabilitation facility. On top of assessing the quantity of care provided by aids and other staff, we looked at the percentage of residents vaccinated against pneumonia. This facility administered the vaccine to 100 percent of its residents, which is higher than most nursing homes. Lastly, this nursing home was also able to limit hospitalizations. Indeed, it had less than one hospitalization per one thousand long-term resident days, which is a remarkably low number.

Nurse Quality

Grade: C

The final category we graded is nursing. This facility received a grade of C in the area. The nursing grade weighs many factors, however, the most important consideration is the quantity of nurse hours per patient per week. This facility averages 0.3 hours of nursing care per resident each day, which is not an impressive total. Finally, we also considered some quality-based measures in this category. Although this facility didn't rank highly in terms of its nursing hours per resident, it performed better in some of the quality measures we assessed. By way of illustration, in terms of the number of its residents experiencing pressure ulcers, this facility performed better than the national average. This is generally a good indicator that a nursing home has sufficient quality controls in place. Pressure ulcers can typically be prevented with better nursing care.
