Facility Inspections

Grade: A-minus

On top of being a quality nursing home overall, this nursing home really excelled in the area of inspections, where it earned an A-. Not many facilities performed better in that area. We take several aspects of a facility's inspection report into consideration in computing our inspection scores. One key factor is deficiencies. It should be noted that the severity of the deficiencies is arguably more important than the quantity of deficiencies, as some deficiencies end up being quite insignificant. Although this place had a few deficiencies on its inspection report, none of them were serious based on CMS' scale. A few minor deficiencies aren't something to panic about.

Nurse Quality

Grade: A-minus

One of the other reasons we graded this nursing home so highly is that it earned a very impressive nursing rating. Nursing proved to be its second best category grade. In that area, we gave this facility an A-. Our nursing grade assesses many components, most of which are tied to nursing hours. This nursing home provides 0.4 hours of nursing care per resident per day. Finally, we also assessed some nursing quality measures in determining our nursing grades. This place performed very well when it comes to minimizing its residents' major falls and pressure ulcers. We consider these areas to be good indicators of the quality of nursing care.

Long-term Care Quality

Grade: B

This nursing home was given an impressive long-term care score as well. We awarded it one of our better grades in that area with a grade of B. When nursing homes receive a grade in this range in this category it typically means it has plenty of staff and is a quality place to reside on a permanent basis. On top of looking at the quantity of care provided by aids and other staff, we looked at the number of residents vaccinated for pneumonia. This facility provided the vaccine to 100 percent of its patients. Vaccines are critical to keeping patients out of the hospital. Clearly, this place is doing something right in this area as it was able to keep its patients out of the hospital. Indeed, it had less than one hospitalization per 1,000 long-term resident days, which is a remarkably low figure.

Short-term Care Quality

Grade: C

Switching gears to our last category, this facility received a decent short-term care grade of C. Short-term care scores are important for residents looking for rehabilitation. Rehabilitation usually mandates more skilled nursing. Skilled nursing includes a wide scope of nursing services, ranging from registered nurses to physical and speech therapists, as well as other variations of therapy. Unfortunately, we were not able to locate information on registered nurse or physical therapy staffing for this nursing home. The final metric we considered in this category is the percentage of residents that ultimately were able to return home from the facility. We found that just 4.5 percent of this nursing home's patients returned home.
